How do i force library selection when itunes opens

I manage to select a specific library when itunes opens by holding alt key.
I would like the popup selection to open any time, even if the alt key is not pressed...
thanks in advance for your help

I have never heard of a way of dong this. If you're clever with computers you might be able to come up with a key comination or small automator app that does the equivalent of holding down the option key/alt key while clicking on the iTunes app, so you'd start iTunes with your own app, not directly.

Workflow/Automator to identify library when iTunes opens

Is there a way to use Automator/workflow to request which library to select when iTunes opens?
Here is my situation: I have 2 libraries one for me and one for my wife. My wife does not use a computer so I have not set up a separate user ID for her. Instead both libraries are under my user ID. Currently I need to select the "option" key when iTunes opens to request a library to open. Is there a way to use Automator/workflow to automate this process? I opened Automator but this is not one of the predefined items.
Thanks

When I open iTunes it will automatically go to full screen mode. I can't work out how to turn this off. Only iTunes opens to full screen mode.

Go to System Preferences (under the Apple logo in the menu bar). Choose "General". Click "Always close windows when quitting an application".
That should fix it.

How can I modify a document when it opens in Preview

when in preview, go to the "Tools" area, you will get a slew of things you can do with your documents in Preview.
I usually hit ctrl+cmd+O
that's the letter "oh" not the number "zero"
the tools sort of appear and then I can choose what I want to do.

I could not get out of my Yahoo home page in Safari on my Imac. I had to force quit but when i opened back up the little light under the Safari icon was still on and when i tapped icon I was right back to the Yahoo page which would not close. Any ideas???

Quit Safari (by force if necessary.) Relaunch it by holding down the shift key and clicking its icon in the Dock. That will stop the page from reloading automatically.

Roadrunner is POP email, and the feature you are looking for
is a function of IMAP email. Roadrunner has not announced
any plans to make IMAP available. If this is important to you,
get a gmail account (which can be setup as IMAP) and configure
your Roadrunner account to automatically forward emails to the
gmail account.

My laptop has my home filmed videos in the pho library. When I open the library in iTunes the videos are not show. How can I access them for sharing?

My laptop has a photo library with my pictures and home made video. I have changed the format of the videos to apple. When O open the library in iTunes for sharing I only get the photos and the videos are excluded from the list. How can I get them included for sharing?

Here are Apple's instructions:
If you are using iPhoto ’06 or earlier, you will need to follow these steps to tell iPhoto where the Library is now located:
Hold down the Option key on the keyboard and open iPhoto. Keep the Option key held down until you are prompted to create or choose an iPhoto Library.
Click Choose Library.
Locate and select the iPhoto Library in its new location.
(from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1229 )
Below (in the link below) is what you should see when holding down the option key and opening iPhoto. Keep holding down the option key until this dialogue comes up. You want to select the Choose Library button.

Back up all data.
Please triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
defaults delete com.apple.dock single-app && killall Dock
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear below what you entered. You can then quit Terminal. Test.
