How to unset the 'use itunes for internet music playback' option

In Advanced Preferences, I mistakenly clicked the SET button for "Use itunes for internet music playback". Since then, I have closed and opened itunes, so it appears the preference has been saved (the field is no longer highlighted)
I cannot find any way to unset this option. I want to unset this option. Could someone please tell me how?

I don't think that deleting the plist file will help.
Clicking that button sets the handler for a bunch of file types. You can't just unset it, you need to set the handler to something other than iTunes. Normally audio and video are handled by the Quicktime Plugin. You can restore that behavior in System Preferences:
System Preferences -> QuickTime (in the Internet and Network set) -> Advanced -> Mime Settings...
You may have other plugins or programs you want to use for some formats (like .wmv or .avi). Those programs should be able to reclaim the file and MIME types from their preferences.

  • Unsetting Option -- Use iTunes for Internet Music Playback

    In the advanced pane of the iTunes Systems Preferences, there is an Option -- "Use iTunes for Internet Music Playback". You can click on the SET button to use this feature.
    But how do you UNSET it? I no longer want to use ITunes for Internet Music Playback.
    I am running iTunes 7.02 and Tiger 10.4.8.

  • How to Disable "Use itunes for internet playback"?

    I accidentally clicked the SET button in itunes which defaults itunes for internet playback.
    I do not want this.
    How do I revert back?
    I DO NOT want to use itunes for internet playback and I can not find any way to shut it off.

    Here's one way around it. For example, open iTunes, open the radio playlist and drag any station to the desktop. Highlight the icon, and click Command i. In the Info window there is a command "Open with:" It probably has iTunes as the default. If so, hold down the arrow for a menu of applications to choose from. (Mine has RealPlayer and Quicktime available.) If those aren't listed, choose "Other.." A window will open with available applications. Choose one and close the Info window. Open the application you've chosen. The controls will appear. Click Command o (Open). In the desktop window choose your radio station and play. I hope this works for you. It should work for any streaming source. Now if some body could tell me how to stop those irritating "rebuffering" interruptions, that'd be great.

  • Use iTunes for internet radio - settings question

    Hi all,
    I have a Linn Klimax DS (digital streaming) unit as part of an audio system, and that's being fed over my Cat5 network by a Twonky MediaServer installed on one of my mac's. That Twonky setup has SHOUTcast enabled and was serving internet radio fine and identified the stations until I installed iTunes 8 yesterday. I made the mistake of clicking on the button that says 'Use iTunes for Internet radio' in the preferences-> advanced->general pane.
    Basically, I need to find out what precisely that setting actually does under the hood, so I can use the command line to reset that, turn it off, or undo basically what it did set.
    Hope someone can shed a bit of light on that, maybe even just a hint, as I have been through the console logs, but haven't seen anything that jumps out at me. Thanks in advance for any help.

  • How do I start using iTunes to manage music on old computer?

    I've had my computer for a while and used iTunes to listen to music.  I used to like having all my music files in one folder, so iTunes did not manage my files.
    Now I would like iTunes to manage my files, but my library is already built from the loose files.  How do I get iTunes to put all the music that I already have into organized folders without losing ratings/plays and without having duplicate files?
    Thanks!

  • How to prevent the use of wild cards in select-option

    Hello experts,
    Is it possible to prevent the use of wild cards in a select-option? If yes, how is it done please?
    I have a

    and, I want to prevent the users for giving in some thing like FI* with the wildcard bc it would lead to dump.
    I want an error message to display and prevent the users for making such entry.
    Please I need your help and I would be very grateful.
    Thanks

    You have to use SELECT_OPTIONS_RESTRICT to restrict input allowed. Call this FM in INITIALIZATION or SELECTION-SCREEN OUPUT sections.
    Sample :
    TYPE-POOLS: sscr.
    INITIALIZATION.
    * Restrict SELECT-OPTIONS
      PERFORM restrict_select.
    FORM restrict_select.
      DATA: restrict TYPE sscr_restrict,
            opt_list TYPE sscr_opt_list,
            *** TYPE sscr_***.
    * Défine select-options modes (aka option list)
    * - ALL standard - all options allowed
      CLEAR opt_list.
      MOVE 'ALL' TO opt_list-name.
      MOVE 'X' TO: opt_list-options-bt,
                   opt_list-options-cp,
                   opt_list-options-eq,
                   opt_list-options-ge,
                   opt_list-options-gt,
                   opt_list-options-le,
                   opt_list-options-lt,
                   opt_list-options-nb,
                   opt_list-options-ne,
                   opt_list-options-np.
      APPEND opt_list TO restrict-opt_list_tab.
    * - EQU only equality allowed (list of values)
      CLEAR opt_list.
      MOVE 'EQU' TO opt_list-name.
      MOVE 'X' TO opt_list-options-eq.
      APPEND opt_list TO restrict-opt_list_tab.
    * Affect modes to parameters or block of parameters
    * ALL by default
      CLEAR ***.
      MOVE: 'A'          TO ***-kind,
            '*'          TO ***-sg_main,
            'ALL'        TO ***-op_main.
      APPEND *** TO restrict-***_tab.
    * EQU to internal material number
      CLEAR ***.
      MOVE: 'S'          TO ***-kind,
            'S-MATNR'    TO ***-name,
            'I'          TO ***-sg_main, " no exclusion
            'EQU'        TO ***-op_main. " only value list
      APPEND *** TO restrict-***_tab.
    * Call  FM
      CALL FUNCTION 'SELECT_OPTIONS_RESTRICT'

                restriction = restrict
           EXCEPTIONS
                OTHERS      = 1.
    ENDFORM.                    " restrict_select
    In the sample, only select-options for matnr is restricted to single value list.
    For your request build a mode with all options except "pattern" ones : CP and NP.

  • How to tell the difference between DRM (fairplay) music and non-DRM music?

    Apple finally is selling non-DRM music and I've bought a couple songs in the past with ease. I like the system but I'm having a problem finding out which music is still using DRM.
    Apple originally differentiated it by charging 30 cents more for the unprotected music. Now however they removed the surcharge, but there's no way to tell if the music I'm looking at is protected.
    I choose not to buy DRMed music as I'm using my music to burn MP3 CDs for my car, and having to crack protection isn't the way I want to do it.
    How can I tell using iTunes Store which music is DRM protected, and which music is DRM free?

    Agreed, I have stopped buying from iTunes until they eliminate the restrictions, and have started replacing the songs I DID buy from iTunes with non copy protected ones from Amazon. I tell everyone not to buy from iTunes for exactly that reason. There are lots of other excellent options, which do not have the stupid restrictions that Apple has. The iPod is great, iTunes with DRM is incredibly annoying.

  • ITunes for classical music

    iTunes' structures are for "songs" (one song, one track). A CD of classical music contains one or more "works", each consisting of one or more "movements" (usually one track, one movement). How can I store and manage classical music with iTunes, or are there any alternative applications?

    Obviously, different users will have different approaches to this problem.
    I too am an avid fan of classical music (my iTunes library is over 90% classical). I'm not a great fan of a multiplicity of playlists, though, so I adopt a different approach. I have separate genres for different types of musical pieces — Chamber, Instrumental, Vocal, Operatic and so on. I then have one enclosing folder in my Source list (I call it Classical Categories), within which I have a number of smart playlists (Chamber Music, Concerto, Instrumental, Orchestral, Symphonic). I view these smart playlists as lists grouped with artwork and sort these lists by composer. This has the effect of neatly dealing with those situations where the original CD contains works by different composers, since it separates these out and displays them separately. CDs devoted to music by a single composer still remain grouped as a single item, but viewing as a list grouped with artwork helps make each CD stand out from its neighbours and aids clarity.
    Using the search field within any of my smart playlists gives me instant access, for example, to all symphonies or all concertos (or whatever) by any single composer. In many ways, indeed, iTunes has proved to be a better way to access music in my library than was ever possible with physical CDs on shelves — I've lost track of the number of times I've found it frustratingly difficult to find a particular piece of music 'in the old days' because it was part of a CD which I'd filed under a different composer's name because music by that composer was what I bought the CD for originally.
    As I say, we'll all find different solutions to the problem of using iTunes for classical music, but I'm happy with mine. What would be wonderfully helpful would be for Apple to introduce into iTunes the grouping by 'Work' which they use in the iTunes Store. I also wish they'd drop the use of that word 'song', which is so frustratingly inappropriate in a classical context, and replace it with 'track'. I've submitted feedback about these points on numerous occasions. Perhaps Apple will address the needs of classical collectors at some time in the future.

  • How do I use the same Itunes for both my IPOD and IPAD?

    How do i use itunes for both my ipod and ipad? and have everything on both of them.

    You can connect one of them to your computer's iTunes, select it on the left-hand side of iTunes, and then on the right-hand side select the Music tab and choose what to sync to that device - you can then connect, select and sync the same content to your other device.

  • I have been using iTunes for years to connect to radio and just recently tried to get on and sign pops up stating " A error occurred while contracting the radio tuning service. Check your internet connection or try again later "  I do but the same respons

    I have been using iTunes for years to connect to the radio and just recently tried to tune in and an error sign pops up stating " A error occurred while contracting the radio tunning service. Check your internet connection or try again later." There's no problrm with my internet service so what's up?

    You are probably using an old version of iTunes with which the stream link service seems to have stopped working for many users of older iTunes.  No, Apple makes no comment about this kind of thing.  It may reappear, it may not (it has been dead for over a week now).  Your solution is to upgrade the operating system version on your computer from 10.5.8 to 10.6.8 so you can run a newer iTunes, or live without.  You can still open streams if you can get the URL, and you can then save them as playlist items.

    I think you meant 10.6.8, not 10.8.6
    It requires an upgrade, instead of a free update.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.

  • How can 2 people use itunes in the same household? we both have iphone 4 and separate id but the same itunes? pleasehelp

           how can two people use itunes in the same household? i had a iphone before so alreday had an itunes account now me and my husband have upgraded and we now both have them. he has set up a username and i have mine yet when he logs in he seems to just get my account? please help

    Decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account.  On the one that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing Notes with iCloud, you'll also have to email your notes to yourself so they can be recreated in the new account as they cannot be migrated.
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting your wife's data from your account, and vice versa).
