AppleScript to open/close GetInfo windows for all items in and iTunes playlist

iTunes periodically loses a good portion of my Movies artwork and the most reliable way to get it back is to simply do a Get Info on the movies who's artwork is missing... with 1000+ movies it's tedious to do this by hand so looking at way to automate this.
pieced together this (below), but doesn't work... any help appreciated...
tell application "iTunes"
set theMoviesPlayList to playlist "Test Playlist"
set theMovies to (tracks of theMoviesPlayList)
end tell
repeat with aMovie in theMovies
tell application "iTunes" to reveal aMovie
tell application "System Events"
tell process "iTunes"
key code 34 using command down
click button 1 of window 1
end tell
end tell
end repeat

No problem,
I noticed that applescript was the top window and had read on Doug's applescripts about making sure the right window was selected using this command.
The Movie artwork problem seems to be very common and many people are searching for the answer.
You have it now!
Its in my iTunes scripts folder and will get good use.
Thanks
Chris

Force documents to open in new window for all users?

Is there a way to force all portal users to open their documents in a new window? I know individual users can do it through the my account page, but is there a way to set the default as "open in new window"?

Open this file:
\plumtree\settings\portal\portalconfix.xml
Find and change this setting:
The default setting for the open in new window preference.
0 = same window.
1 = new window.
Users can override this setting by changing their personal preferences.
<setting name="OpenNewWindow">
<value xsi:type="xsd:integer">0</value>
</setting>

How can I shut off all of the pop-up windows for all the Firefox updates?

How can I shut off all of the pop-up windows for all the Firefox and Thunderbird updates?
Apparently now Mozilla creates new versions of their browser and email apps every two weeks instead of just creating updates... I'm tired of all of the pop-up requests for these constant installation requests and all the problems that the new version installations create... I just want to use the software and be left alone.
I can't find a way to make Firefox and Thunderbird stop with the pop-up requests for new installations... is there a way to do this or has Mozilla just got it rigged so one can't just use the software without re-installing a new version every two weeks and running in to new plugin issues and missing features every time?
Help!
Thanks,

Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
All these programs have free versions.

Redetermine Routes for all items when ship-to-party gets changed

Dear All,
I have one requirement with respect to determination.
Right now when we create any order using "VA01" and entering ship to party, sold to party,material and order quantity and if press enter we are able to get the route number for that item and to get the route number they have written the code in user exit "MV45AFZZ" in FORM USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBEP. Up to this OK.
And if they change the ship to party at header level and press enter it will ask for
Shipping conditions were changed,Redetermine routes and shipping for all items?
and if press redetermine again it will ask Ship-to party has been changed Redetermine plant/shipping point ?.
But when i press redetermine it's not picking any route number for that item, and to pick the route number we should write some code, but i didn't find the correct place to write in userexit.
Please let me know where should i write the code in userexit, and if possible send sample code as well.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Raju

Using layers for page layout is just asking for trouble.
Trouble with
centering content, and trouble with expanding text.
Use tables until you can manage a proper CSS layout scheme,
i.e., NOT
layers. Start here -

Yosemite, messages, preferences are grayed out. It opens but the window for messages is blank.

Yosemite, messages, preferences are grayed out. It opens but the window for messages is blank. Can't click on anything.

Hi,
You appear to have the wrong end of the stick as they say.
Just starting your computer needs certain Fonts to be present to display the text you are likely to see.
Most of those needed to do this are in the Hard Drive icon/System/Library/Fonts.
Some apps require different Fonts and in the case of Messages this is AppleGothic (all one word) and is found in Hard Drive/Library/Fonts.
You would normally use the Apple App called Font Book to check these Fonts are working properly.
Prior to the Yosemite version of Messages (still called Messages 8 like th Mavericks version) you could change the Font use in the actual Messages in the app.
On a Character or word or Sentence basis there was the Format Menu.
There was also a Pane in th Preferences called Messages that let you choice the Font, the colour of the text and the colour of the balloons for Out going Messages and also Overriding the incoming ones.
You can no longer do this as the Preferences Pane and the Format Menu have gone.

Open Media Encoder and add your Sequences:
File > Add Premiere Pro Sequence
Navigate to your Premiere Project and select it in the list.
You can then select multiple Sequences from the Project (Ctrl+Click)
and load them all at once into Media Encoder and apply
the same encoding preset to all Sequences at the same time.

Pdf's no longer open in new windows in all of my browsers

pdf's no longer open in new windows in all of my browsers, how can I fix it

Hi...
Quit all browsers.
Open the Finder.
From the Finder menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go
Move the Adobe PDF browser plugin (or just PDF browser plugin) from the Internet Plug-Ins folder to the Trash.
Relaunch a browser to test.

My thumbnails have all disappeared. If I view events there is the same one for all 270 events and if I open an event I have clack thumbnails. I can only see the photo if I open it individually.

If I view events there is the same thumbnail for all 270 events and if I open an event I have black thumbnails. I can only see the photo if I open it individually.The only way I can then see the thumbnail is by editing each photo. Then to even further complicate matters the last editted phot is replaces as the thumbnail on all events foders!...grrr. This is what I awoke to two mornings ago after inly backing up my machine which I do every night.

No. Quitefrankly I didn't know I could even use iPhoto on iPad, I just have the photos app that came on it. This is on my laptop. I don't particularly like iPhoto I use it essentially to take photos off my camera and store all the originals. I use Photoshop. To work on them and store them in Dropbox (don't get me started on iCloud!). As I said this is a problem that seemed to crop up overnight after backing up to my external HD.

In that huge folder I only need the .xlsb files opened and saved to .xlsx not the others, in case that wasn't clear above.

I can't play movie downloads. I've tried opening them with Windows Media Player, i-tunes, and Quick time but they don't work.

I can't play i-tunes downloaded movies. I've tried opening them with Windows Media Player, i-tunes, and quick time. Nothing works.

If after you download the movie, you navigate away and do something else with your Apple TV the content you have downloaded will be overwritten and you'll need to download it again. It's a pain in the neck for many who have slow downloads but it's something that comes with using volatile memory rather than a hard drive for storage.
Perhaps you're not doing this, but I thought it worth mentioning.

Hi, I've an iPad Mini with the latest version 6.0.2, a windows 7 Home Premium laptop and iTunes 11.0.1 (12), but I can't synchronize my music or videos with it. I managed to syncronize my books but thats all.
I also have an iphone 5 and everything seems to work fine with it.
I see all movies and music available to be sync but when I click on the sync button, the process starts, the bottom bar shows an increase in consumed space then nothing happens and the bar goes back as nothing was added.
Please help..
I have tried everything but nothing works.

Thanks Sk8dreams,
....but I wish I could have lol like u right now..
If I could get a free iPad everything I'd already kept my iPad connected and restarted iTunes, I think I'd have had a truckload of them by now...
I've done all of these..
Like I said earlier I syncd everything to my iphone5 successfully...
I got my PDF ebooks to this same iPad... Films & Music do not seem to be getting through..
I'm sure someone out there knows what to do..
