You can use Launch Services to launch iTunes without bringing it frontmost.
I would ask the user before blowing away the XML file. (Maybe have a button or menu item for "the song list is out of date" and then have a dialog which explains the situation)

I have an application that communicates with iTunes. One of the things I
have found is that iTune's XML file is sometimes out of date with what is in
iTunes.


A work around I have found is that if I delete the XML file and then
activate iTunes, the XML file is created and is then in sync.

Currently I am using cocoa to run an applescript to activate iTunes, however
this is undesireable as it makes iTunes appear in front of my application.
Is there another way that I can allocate run-time to iTunes so as to trigger
it's main application loop to run?




What would happen if you just 'touch' iTune's XML file  ?
