A playlist exists within a source, which could be a library, a library on
shared from another computer, an iPod and several others.
So if your playlist is called "Imports: Last Month" you would need to refer
to the play list as
tell app "iTunes"
playlist "Imports: Last Month" of source "Library"
end tell
This should be much faster than having AppleScript find all the tracks in
the library which were added in the last month.
You script would be like this:
tell application "iTunes"
set trackList to every track of playlist "Imports: Last Month" of source
"Library"
repeat with oneTrack in trackList
-- do processing here
end repeat
end tell
