Well I don't think I've got a sticky option key, although this computer is two years old now. Basicly, my Itunes forgets where the library is after every update, and once every 3 weeks or so for no apparent reason.
For example, suppose I want to listen to a CD. When I put the cd into the drive Itunes will open automaticly which is what it's supposed to do. If it has just updated, or if it's been two to four weeks since the last time I used it, it will make me choose my library again before playing the cd. I'm not using control option space or anything to open ITunes, it's just opening automaticly because a cd went into the drive. I don't know, shrugs. It shouldn't be that much work to listen to some tunes. Erik Burggraaf Join me Wednesday, May 26th at CNIB Tech Aids fair in Toronto.
