How would I go about opening the window that has all the detailed info for the current track? The one where you can change it all. Would it be some kind of Apple Event? Thanks! :smiley:

Current track of what? :wink:

Is this acceptable for your scenario?

activate application "iTunes"
delay 0.25

tell application "System Events"
	keystroke "l" using command down
	keystroke "i" using command down
end tell

well its eventually going to be a menu item in my application to show that window, and not everyone will have GUI scripting turned on…

I believe keystroke does not require GUI scripting.

Also, you should probably add a small delay to that script.
