Music Player Shortcut Mac Osx
VLC Media Player has to be one of the most popular third-party media players available for Mac (as well as PC, Android, iOS and so on) due to its compatibility with a breathtaking number of audio.

I found this worked just by using Option and the arrow.

I found this worked just by using Option and the arrow.I meant the backward/forward arrow controls on iTunes, not the arrow keys on the keyboard. iTunes Shortcuts says that's supposed to advance to the next album, but whatever.

The Keyboard Shortcuts in the Help View are correct. Option-Left Arrow/Right Arrow skips through albums, as does Option-click on the forward and backward buttons on the iTunes window. However, Option-hold click will shuttle through a track just like Command-Option-Left Arrow/Right Arrow. Neat to know.
Amazingly enough, this one isn't even documented in iTunes own Help -> Keyboard Shortcuts item..Nah, that's not too amazing.. I've found Apple's Help system to be unsatisfactory, on the whole.
if you combine command-option with up or down arrow, itunes mutes too
thx
Does anybody know if there's a keyboard shortcut to switch from the full view to the small player? (Window/Zoom)
Thanks,

Command-Shift-Up/Down Arrow will set Volume to max. and min.

Azurewave ad sb200 driver for mac. With this you can assign hot keys (eg. F11, F12 or whatever) to fastforward/rewind for you.
Eg. Press and hold the key and it fastforwards/rewinds; but quickly press and release the key and it skips an entire track.
And it's better two, because these are system-wide hotkeys and iTunes doesn't have to be at the front.
Robg makes a good point about this hint; it's not in iTunes keyboard shortcuts. Robg, how can we add great hints like this to Apple's Help Viewer?
Hey, I like that idea! I'm not sure how possible it would be, but Apple does have a Find this on the Internet command in the Help Viewer.
Anyone want to work on this for us all?

What a great slew of iTunes hints. I looked and looked and tried and tried to find a way to rewind (funny that we still call it reWINDing, as if it's a tape) and fast-foward within a track with the keyboard.
While we're at it, I also found that command-up/down controls the volume. I don't think this was one of the ones mentioned in this thread, and it's sure as heck not in iTunes help (like practically everything else).
Earlier we have seen How to install VLC media player in Mac OS X in our last post, so I hope you already have vlc media player installed in your mac.
Using any application/software without keyboard shortcut sometimes becomes painful, image a situation where you have no idea about keyboard shortcuts or the hotkeys, I can bet you would wonder around toolbar and waste quite a useful time of yours doing things that you could have done within seconds with the help of keyboard shortcuts.
