Control iTunes without switching to its app window

by Jen

For Windows:

This software app lets you use keyboard combinations to control iTunes from whatever application you’re in. To make it work, you first need to install a .Net framework from Microsoft – I don’t know what that is, either, but don’t let that scare you. It’s very, very simple. Just follow the instructions, and once you’re done, the keyboard controls you’ll need to learn are:

Ctrl+Insert: Play
Ctrl+Home: Pause
Ctrl+Page Up: Previous song
Ctrl+Page Down: Next song
Ctrl+End: Stop
Ctrl+Up: Increase iTunes volume (not system volume)
Ctrl+Down: Decrease iTunes volume (not system volume)
Ctrl+Shift+Insert: Toggle shuffle mode
Ctrl+Shift+Home: Toggle repeat mode
