Quick Tip: Tweek iTunes in Terminal

In your iTunes song list you will notice a small arrow on a highlighted song.

If you click it, it will take you to the iTunes Music Store and show you a search for that artist.

Today’s Quick Tip is that if you hold down the option key when you click the artist arrow you will get a search result for that artist in your own music library.

If you like this feature and would rather not hold down the option key you can switch the two in Terminal. So when you click the arrow it will take you to your library and holding the option key will take you to the Music Store.

Here’s how to do it:

• Start by closing the iTunes application
• Open Terminal which is located in your Applications/Utilities Folder.
  

• Enter or Copy the following text and hit Enter:

defaults write com.apple.iTunes invertStoreLinks -bool YES

Now your arrows have been changed.
