Blue Coconut1.50b1

I'm going to continue using ourTunes. This program didn't get past the "please wait" stage for me. I couldn't download anything. If you want something that can do what this program does, and this doesn't work for you, check out ourTunes. You can search (selectively searching the hosts you want) and download, setting the download directory and filename according to variable fields.

Fantastic with iTunes 6.......broken with iTunes 7. An update is needed but it looks like the author is no longer developing this program (which is a shame because this is so much cleaner than the alternatives - not made with Java so it's fast, doesn't require an IM client to share, or a webbrowser, doesn't require a buddy list etc etc). My score is for the 1.50b1 version working with iTunes 6

Anyone know any programs like this that work with Itunes 7.0 or intel macs???

Seems to be broken with iTunes 7.01. Please fix, this is a great application!

it seems blue coconut doesn't work on itunes 7.0 i have tried it but no responded , cannot copied song from share folder.

Seems to be broken with iTunes 7.0 -

Doesn't seem to work properly on an intel iMac. I hope a universal version is released soon.

much better then ourtunes. doesnt work with password protected shares though which is a huge dissapointment,(applescript error) other then that though works well.

Blue Coconut is perfect for "borrowing" music on a network. I hate that ITMS expects me to pay for the same songs my bro downloads... Blue Coconut lets me exercise my "older brother" rights under the international law of copyrightprotectionistoointensethesedays. I think it only works on d/ling songs that i actually have highlighted though, which is a bit of a drawback, because id like to highlight them, click them, and go back to sorting my own library.

wow. this is great. this is exactly what i have been looking for for about a week. it saved me from having to brun about 20 cds to transfer all my music, or talking hours to do it with an ftp host. keep up the great work.

Works great for me in iTunes 6 and 10.4.3. I have an old B&W G3 as a music server and this app allows me to copy my tracks to a local computer for syncing to my iPod. Is this app still being developed would love to be able to also copy my album art along with the tracks. Keep up the good work.

When I load blue coconut and try to start it, it won't start and it reads "mounting failed" and when I load blue coconut 1.50b1 and try to start it, it says, "application blue coconut has unexpectedly quit" what is going on here?

didn't work with latest iTunes

An impressive little app. The ability to choose "Copy selected shared tracks" from the iTunes script menu has made my day. This has nicely simplified my flatmate and I sharing our music. My only criticism is that the documentation doesn't explicitly state the name of the iTunes script folder (~/Library/iTunes/Scripts). If you've not used any scripts in iTunes before this is a little confusing, but it's hardly a major problem.

It didn't work. It makes my computer screw up.

Works fine on Admin account but not on sub accou nts. Wont add track to playlist in subaccounts.

It works great... Select the song to play off the list and click the "GET" button on Blue Coconut and you have it. One little note: it copies the files twice in 2 different location in the Music folder not sure why.

Amazingly simple and clean interface!! Works with iTunes 5.0...10 times better than getTunes. just do it.

Works with iTunes 5.0. Fantastic!

Absolutely fantastic, especially the new version(1.50b1)! Thsnk you!

Works perfectly on my G5. Crashes every time on my Powerbook when launching. What a shame

This is great! Crack one open today!

When I click on the button to get a song I want to download added to the queue, I get an error that says "AppleScript Error" and "The variable sourceinfo is not defined (-2753)". Nothing downloads. It's added to the queue but just sits there.

WOW!!!!!

Awesome program! The only thing I miss is some kind of search function, as I am connected to in between 20 and 30 libraries.... But Blue Coconut does the job for me!

Mine keeps coming up with an error that says it can't find the shared library over Rendezvous, and won't transfer anything. What am I doing wrong?

This is great. Just click a button and the current song is added to your computer.

Awesome! Always works where as others (getTunes) have failed with new releases of iTunes. Not flashy, but doesn't need to be as it does its job perfectly.

How about allowing library sources from somewhere other than the default itunes libary dir to be downloaded from. That would be cool. You can stream from it but the source is not found when attempting to download.

Much better than the alternatives, but I wish it wouldn't rename the tracks you download. There should be an option to not add the tracks to your itunes library aswell.

Works perfectly well EVEN with iTunes 4.7.1 Just the little app I was looking for. I've looked at the others, getTunes, OurTunes, etc. - this is the only one that did the trick. It's the one. Thanks.

Using itunes 4.7 and this works just fine. Really cool app. Kudos to the developers.

Couldn't use it: it says that 10.3 is required, although I am running 10.3 ....

GetTunes is a much better solution that works well and does what you want with no muss or fuss!

trying to reveal tracks in itunes i got an applescript error: Can't set view of browser window 1 to playlist "Blue Coconut". (-10006) :-(
