Auto hide taskbar not working with iTunes 10.5 & Windows 7

Anyone else having problems with Auto-hide Taskbar not working when iTunes is open and the active window? Was working fine with previous versions including the beta of 10.5 I had. Is this a general problem or just me? Im using Windows 7 64bit for what its worth.

iTunes-OTHER, Windows 7

I'm noticing this is one of the most heavily commented posts within the Apple online community, particularly when you add up this and the at least five other strings. Is Apple uncommited to fixing this problem - suggesting they aren't interested in our concerns? Has anyone thought to ask Siri either a) if she knows how to fix it or b) the timeline for Apple to fix it? Perhaps she knows - I would ask but don't have her/4s.

I wouldn't think it would be that tough a fix, in theory. I mean, I'm definitely not a computer programmer, but since the problem didn't exist in earlier versions of iTunes, it's obviously something about the new version that's causing the problem, right? Since it only happens with iTunes and no other program I use, including other media programs, I doubt it's a problem with some third-party application interfering with iTunes in some way.


I've gotten used to using Alt+Tab to switch windows, but it can be a pain when I only have my right hand and can't reach the tab key easily. It would be really nice to be able to change windows in those situations without minimizing iTunes! Please, can you fix this?
