Recognizing iTunes in a different directory - nowplyaing.dll

[cgdiaz]

Hey all,

I searched around but I didn't see anything similar to my problem. I am trying to set up my iTunes to sync between two computers, and have got most of that sorted out. The problem is, I moved the iTunes folder to a new directory, and now rainmeters nowplaying.dll isn't seeing iTunes activity. Is there a way to change where the plugin looks to see iTunes? Thanks for the help in advance,

Have you tried to set PlayerPath= in main NowPlaying measure?

Did you move the iTunes installation folder (with iTunes.exe)? If so, you need to reinstall iTunes (and select your desired target folder during installation).

iTunes registers various information during installation. NowPlaying (and other similar programs/plugins) use this information to communicate with iTunes. By moving the iTunes directory, the iTunes registrations became invalid. The only way to fix this properly is to uninstall iTunes completely and then install it back.

I tried responding right away but the forum was acting funny.

I'm glad to report, after a complete shut down of both systems and restart, functionality came back. I honestly am not sure what caused the glitch, but I can't reproduce it now.
