Alison and others, There is a way to set up iTunes so it does not automatically add files when played. I learned how to do it from Esther quite som time ago. It has been a long time so I'll have to search my notes to find how to do it. I remember it was not hard to do but it was also not obvious by any means.
So, there is a way but I'll have to get back to you unless someone else does. Sorry this is only half a answer but I wanted you to know there is a way. I also usually use quick look by pressing the space bar. However, sometimes I want the iTunes controls and it is nice to open a file in iTunes and not have to find and delete it later. eRic Caron On Apr 29, 2012, at 3:51 PM, Allison Mervis wrote: > Hi everyone! > I recently got a beautiful new Macboook pro, and find myself using it more > than my pc because it's so portable.
