Chris,
Thanks for responding so quickly. Unfortunately, this script would compile but not run. The error message
was "handler only handles single objects"
Also, I wasn't very clear on what I was trying to do. I really only want to play music from a playlist on a shared library.
I was thinking for error checking purposes, I should first make sure the shared library was available before trying to play it.
Is there a special way to tell iTunes to play music on a shared library? My shared library name is "PM Server Music" and the
playlist I'm looking for is called "Christmas". (Imagine that!).
thanks,
Rick Darenberg

"Start" menu was to make "Shut down" the first option.

Hi Rick,
This will give you a list of all the name of all playlists on the first
shared library that iTunes is currently connected to
--Tested with iTunes 4.7
tell application "iTunes"
set theSource to first item of every source whose kind is shared
library
name of every playlist of theSource
end tell
The list of playlists will begin with the name of the shared library
itself.
When you say, "select a playlist from that shared library," what
exactly do you want to do? Have iTunes show the tracks of the shared
library? Or do you mean play that playlist?
Hope this helps...
