How to: Close "Getting Playlist" using applescript ?

Hi *,
How is it possible to close the iTunes "Getting Playlist" Pop-up window using applescript ?
Take a look at --> http://www.cronomik.org/t1.jpg
I have tried to do the following, but iTunes doesn't act.
tell application "System Events"
tell application "iTunes" to key code 53
end tell
Any ideas of how to fix my question ?
Stefan

I have got it working with this script.
If iTunes Pop-up a message, I press a key on my remote control and the Pop-up message / Box disappears.
tell application "System Events"
tell process "iTunes"
-- get the front window's name
-- get the name of the front window
set whichWindow to (get the name of the front window)
-- Ergebnis: "Getting Playlist"
-- display dialog result
-- display dialog whichWindow
-- Ergebnis: {button returned:"OK"}
set whichButton to (get the name of the front window's button)
-- Ergebnis: {"Stop"}
tell whichButton of window whichWindow to key code 53
-- set the contents of the button to key code 53
end tell
end tell
In a terminal I have typed in "while true; do ./diut.app; sleep 2; done" to see what happend, if iTunes is front most and an iTunes message Pop-up.
Solved by myself.

    Hello yogawithlezie,
    Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities.
    You will need to first move your music from your iPod to your computer and then sync to the new iPod.

    You are getting this message because you are trying to create an iCloud account on a PC by signing with your Apple ID.  You can only sign into an existing account on a PC.  You first have to create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher.  After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account using this ID on your PC.

    I have had the same problem as yours on my Ipad after upgraded Procreate 2.01. My iOS is 7.04. I tried to find solution from internet for weeks. Fortunately, the problem was resolved a few minutes ago. It is very simple,
    1. Lunch outlook.com to confirm you can access hotmail mailbox. It means your account is Ok.
    2. Go to setting>Mail,Contacts,Calendars.Delete your hotmail account from your device.(my device is Ipad)
    3. Turn off your device, then turn on again.
    4. Go to setting>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and create your hotmail account by tap outlook.com. Be sure the incoming mail server is pop3.live.com.
    5. Waiting for validation.
    That's all. Hope my experience is helpful. Good luck!

  • My ipod has broken. a friend has given me her ipod. but how do i get to use as mine. i can erase her songs and i have mine all on my pc in itunes. help me please friends

    It appears that something happened to yur computer/iTunes files.  It happens sometimes.  To recovery:
    - Import the old music into the current iTunes library
    - Make sure all the apps are also in the library
    - If in the USA and therplaces where iCloud has benn released you can redownload most iTunes puchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - You can always redownload apps at no additional cost as long as you are singned into the same iTunes account the originally purchased them.
    - After all the suff in in the iTunes library, make a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and right clicking on the iPOd under Devices in iTunes. 
    - Restore the iPod from backup and restore as necessary.

  • I have just bought a new Imac and it will not load my copy of FCE 3.5 as it says "PowerPC applications are no longer supported". So how do I get to use the version of FCE I am used to and have paid for ?

    I do not have any experience with Final Cut, but if you have existing projects that you MUST access; then you are in need of a solution on your new iMac in Mountain Lion!
    Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta.  Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
    However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion).  While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
    Workarounds:
    1.  Purchase a used Mac that will run Snow Leopard (with the optional Rosetta installed) and continue to run FCE on that Mac (you can actually use Screen Sharing with a "headless" used Snow Leopard Mac Mini and use the 27" screen from your iMac to view and work FCE in the Mac Mini environment);
    2.  Upgrade to an Intel compatible version of FCE and hope it converts your existing projects to its newer format correctly.  There is much debate that the newer version of Final Cut are eliminating many needed features; for example Final Cut Pro X vs. Final Cut Pro 6 -- many users are staying with version 6;
    3.  Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels and then install FCE in the Snow Leopard environment:

    Full Snow Leopard installation instructions here:
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1365439
    NOTE: STEP ONE of the instructions must currently be completed on a Snow Leopard or Lion Mac and the resulting modified Snow Leopard.cdr install file can then be moved over to your Mountain Lion Mac for completion of the remaining steps.
    NOTE 2:  Computer games with complex, 3D or fast motion graphics make not work well or at all in virtualization.

  • I've bought more gb for iphone 4, how do I get to use it. It says its in icloud

    II've bought more gb to download a film but it says it in iCloud. How do I get to use it??

    Correct you can't buy more KB for the iphone, what you bought was for icloud backup.
    If you want to download the film, you will have to delete some apps, pics, videos off your phone.
    You bought more memory for icloud not the phone itself.

    Transfer the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes Music folder) to your "new" old Mac. Put that folder in User Name>Music. Open iTunes with the option key down. Select "Choose Library." Navigate to the place where the iTunes folder is. Plug in your iPhone and everything is just like before.

  • How do I get playlists set by Apple back onto my phone

    How do I get the playlists set by Apple back on my phone? The ones like "25 most played" or "recents"

    Double tap the home button and bring up the multi-task bar. Hold down on one the apps until they all start to wiggle and display a minus sign. Tap the minus sign and close all of the apps. Tap the home button and close the multi-task bar. Reset the phone, hold the sleep/wake and home button together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone restarts, see if you see the same behavior. If you do, the next step to restore from a backup. If that doesn't help, then restore as a new device. Use this support document to understand the restore process. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you have to go all the way through restore as a new device and it does not work, then it could be a hardware issue. I've not seen any other posts about screen issues after updates, so one of these should fix it unless there is a problem with the screen.

  • How to find and replace using AppleScript for TextWrangler?

    I ran into a problem after exporting my book into EPUB from Indesign CS4. In this book the Latin diphthong æ is used. Unfortuately it didn't translate very well into the EPUB or corresponding XHTML files. Is there a way to do a batch change using AppleScript to change these symbols √¶ into æ which is the code for the diphthong? If so, how?
    I also have an issue with the symbol †, in some of the documents it appears as this ‚Ć. Can I do a batch change for that as well? If so, how?
    I'm new to using AppleScript so I appreciate all of the help. Thank you so much!!

    Hello
    Here's some observations -
    æ = U+00E6
    = <c3 a6> (UTF-8)
    = <c3 a6> (MacRoman) = æ
    † = U+2020
    = <e2 80 a0> (UTF-8)
    = <e2 80 a0> (MacRoman) = †
    which likely mean that your source data is text in UTF-8 but destination (or viewer or intermediate converter) is interpreting the data as text in MacRoman.
    Make sure you properly declare the encoding of XHTML or EPUB document as UTF-8.
    Good luck,
    H
