On the Mac, you'd use AppleScript, or rather Apple Events.
I expect there are ways of sending Apple Events from Java too, but
for a basics, look at:
http://developer.apple.com/applescript/
Also, open the app Script Editor ( in /Applications ), and open
iTunes dictionary. From here you can see what iTunes exposes to
AppleScript.
For a higher-level control of iTunes scripting, you might also like
to try Automator ( also in /Applications ).
This might be interesting too: http://dougscripts.com/itunes

Apple has made the iTunes COM SDK so Windows users can access

I had an application made on Microsoft Access using VBA and I
would like to do another one in Java, on my Mac. I cannot use this
SDK because I don't use Windows anymore. How can I access the
"iTunes API"? I would like to use Java for this. If I cannot use
Java, is there any other way?
On Windows, for example, the MS Access Application automatically
opened iTunes, selected some music, changed the Tags for some,
convert to other file types…
