rohitk89 Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Does the 'now playing' feature in Windows Live Messenger support iTunes? If no, is there a way to make WLM 8 display the currently playing song on iTunes? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 rohitk89 Posted July 11, 2006 Author Share Posted July 11, 2006 (edited) I checked it just now but on closing the Options dialog box when I'm done I get this error (which is surprising because I'm logged into Windows under an admin account): Update (July 11, 2006): Nevermind. It works now. Making it the default player did the trick Edited July 11, 2006 by rohitk89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Nylonee Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 To set iTunes as your default player, go to start > run > type 'Control Panel' > Add/Remove programs > set program access and defaults > custom > iTunes... In other words, start, Program Access and defaults, go to custom and click iTunes :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
