Itunes 10.4 & G15 keyboard

Does not work for me either. This is really crap. Oh well I got a good backup media player that works with the keyboard. Winamp is good. Apple just needs to allow winamp to sync with iPod touches. Stupid Apple monopoly.

Check this thread out for the Logitech's side. http://forums.logitech.com/t5/G-Series-Gaming-Keyboards/iTunes-10-4-0-80/td-p/65 3252

PS Could someone delete my previous post? I made a mistake in it but I can't edit it.

iTunes 10.4.1.10

Logitech Gaming Software 8.01.120

It's fixed in 10.5!

...or maybe not. It sometimes works now =S

The following solution worked for me with the G15 keyboard, Logitech Gaming Software 8.12.030, and iTunes 10.5.0.142.

That doesn't work for the G13s, however it does have the solution.

Close your Logitech Software

Open regedit and go to:

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Logitech\LCD Software\LCDMedia\iTunes 4.5+

In the Right Hand Pane, select the ClassName REG_SZ value

Change the iTunes to iTWindow.

Close Regedit and restart your Logitech software. Run Itunes, now when you toggle through your LCD screens the Song Plaing screen will come up.

still an issue for me with 10.5, works in foreground, not in background, windows 7 box with microsoft ergo keyboard 4000, used to work, so I know i have keys mapped right, maybe recheck the mapping? maybe itunes has to be default player?

Wrong thread, n00b. Try this one if you have IntelliType installed: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3373942

thx, smooch!

thanks Wolverine...this worked and it fixes the problem

i restart my pc and choose "Logitech Media Display" on my G15 keyboard and its back to normal.

hope this helps

It seems Apple can't work things out with Logitech lately. First the last 10.4 update knocks out the ability to use media keys when iTunes is not the active window. That was fixed in 10.5, but then the LCD would not show media information. Now, in 10.5.1, I can see the info, but now my pause key doesn't work unless iTunes is the active window. Next/Previous, volume, and stop keys all work regardless of the active window, but the pause key seems to pause it a fraction of the second (and the G15 LCD shows it as paused for that brief time), then just continues playing. Anyone else having this issue now?

Windows 7 Pro x64

G15V1 with latest drivers

Okay i know its been ages and i was fiddling around with itunes today AND FOUND THE SOLUTION!

Just go into itunes:

1. Click the "Edit" tab

2. Click "Preferences"

3. Click "Devices"

4. "Tick" the box that says "Allow iTunes audio control from remote speakers.

Problem solved!!
it worked for me so let me know how it goes.

i'm using a Logitech G15 keyboard
