i cant get any of the media buttons on my logitech elite to work with iTunes. the Play/Pause button works, but only if iTunes is selected. all the rest perform the default action, which is to open the default cd audio player. if you need any more details let me know

assigned one of the F keys to start it. After that, the other
media function keys(start, stop, pause, mute, etc.) work.
Apparently, the Windows drivers for the Elite and Elite Duo
do not specifically recognize iTunes yet. Guess we just have to
wait for Logitech's driver guys to catch up.
it may have something to do with the fact that i still have several other pieces of music software installed, that i use for different purposes
selected as the default audio player.
When selecting the Media key, the window that it puts up for me
shows: Windows Media player, Power DVD, Quicktime 6.4,
Windows Media Player 9.00, and WinAmp 2.91. In error, I
managed to to click on PowerDVD, After that, after I chose F1
on the FLock function(which I assigned myself),and hit the
Play/Pause key, it would start playing a track in iTunes AND
start PowerDVD simultaneously. Great fun fixing that!
THe reason he doenst want to use Winamp is because it is a tired design that hasnt advanced in 5 years. iTunes, Mac or Windows, or whatever is quite simply the easiest and best way of organizing a large collection of Mp3s. Winamp is fine if youve got a few hundred but if you need a jukebox iTunes is the easiest most efficent way to browse your library. Media player doesnt even come close. I do miss some of media players functions but none of its flaws. iTunes is a supierior product and if you have a collection of music you treasure- you should do yourself a favor and download it.
My Logitech keyboard is nuts with iTunes also guys. We have to get this fixed because these are two excellent products that I want to see working together. Please let me know if anyone has headway or advice- and no I dont need to go to the logitech website and get new drivers. I doubt anyone who even questions this issue would be elementary enough to have skipped the obvious first solution.
first, actually READ my first post, and know what iTouch and iTunes are before you try replying
iTouch is logitech's software for the media functions on their keyboards
iTunes is a new media player that is excellent at organizing enormous music libraries, and i'd like to keep using it.
hopefully there'll be a patch for this
Wa3=key,Studio.exe,BaseWindow_RootWnd,xxx,xxx,X,C,V,Z,B,0,1,WinAmp3
to the players.ini file in the iTouch folder. Based on this does anyone know how to do a similar add-in to get iTunes working properly? Here's the link to the Winamp thread if it helps. http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=65656 They semi-discuss how to do it I think.
If anyone can figure what to add please do, it would be a great help.
iTunes=wac,iTunes.exe,iTunes,iTunes,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,0,1,iTunes
hope this helps.
