iTunes scrubbing - keyboard shortcut!
Here's one that has changed my life! (ok well, at least my music listening life!) I'm going to post this up at OSXHints and spread the love. It would be nice to be recognized for finding it. Of course, _someone_ else must know about it... at least the programmers who wrote iTunes, right?
But anyways... let's say you're listening to iTunes and you want to move a little bit forward or backwards - no need to mouse on over to the playhead, just hold down Command-Option-Control all at the same time - and then press the left or right arrows! It jumps a few seconds for you. (like holding down the arrow keys on a CD player)
It's GREAT!
No need for an applescript solution!
Of course, if you want to jump to the next song on your playlist - just press the right arrow key... left gets you back to the start (think just pressing the arrow keys on a CD player)
I'll admit - I am a bit of a fan for keyboard shortcuts - I like not having to move my fingers off the keyboard - so between command-tab, quicksilver, and now control-option-command (key mash!) left and right arrows... I'm pretty set.
