Consolidate script

Using script for iTunes to consolidate files, got this error message. Advice please.

Hi Jack,


Looking at line 778 in that script it reads:


Library=iTunes.LibraryXMLPath


and is part of a routine that tries to determine where your media files are currently stored. I guess this may cause an error if iTunes isn't actively generating an XML file. It used to by default but that is clearly no longer the case.


For a quick workaround use Edit > Preferences > Advanced and tick Share iTunes Library XML with other applications, which should create the XML, and make that request valid.


I'm somewhat busy today but it looks like I need to revisit every script that uses that module and trap that error. Fun times.
