iController0.6b

Nice app, better than Byte Controller. But it would be better if it was configurable,. I don't like it that the title and artist are displayed all over the screen.

Very Nice and Simple App. Do like it bringing growl notifications to ITunes. Also, IController can be customized to display song title and artist on the Menu Bar- just in case you miss the Growl notification. How cool is that? Finally, it is very easy to create certain limited key sequence controls- for play, pause, next & previous track, & Volume Control. To be honest, it is enough for me- as it is, I will never use it too control volume. I find this a perfect compliment to the Freeware ITunes Volume (where I provide a more extensive review of my ITune Apps). Thanks for a job well done. I just hope that you are continuing IController's development, as this release is about a year old.

Perfect simple and it works well!

Perfect! This app is simple and thats all I need .

This is an extremely useful app. The only problem I've experienced is: When I click the the controls, half the time nothing will happen. I have to float the cursor off the menubar, then back over the menubar for it to work. It's kind of annoying. Other than that, I HUGELY useful app.

This is a very promising program but it has one problem that keeps me away from using it. The buttons in the menu bar can only be clicked on the black parts. That is, you have to click inside those little arrows if you want to skip a song. Please fix this, bytecontroller and synergy have this correctly, so why not iController...

This program is bad ass i hope they come out wiht another one like this

I have to agree with the rest. I use Growl for notifications, so all I need is a menu item that lets me set shortcuts and doesn't take too much processor power. This app fills almost all my needs, after some tweaking, changing the tiffs for the menu bar icons, to actually make them clickable. I would LOVE for this app to allow you to set the Function keys without modifiers though. F10, F11, F12 for song switching is muscle memory for me, I need it! Goes almost all the way / Jan

Great little product -- just what I wanted. I'm only amazed that with so many alternatives out there, this is the only one, for my purposes and interests, that really "gets it." What I wanted: VERY simple iTunes track controls in the menubar, some indication of what was playing, and complete functionality in Tiger. What I didn't want: Skins, a floating window, a non-floating window, a space-hog, or a damn widget (or anything I have to go in and out of Dashboard to interact with). What I like: It gives me what I wanted, is free, is reasonably customizable, and appears to be as stable as it is elegant. What I'd love to see next: Option to have the song info display either as a tooltip or via the current, scrolling text motif; Option to launch/open iTunes via iController; A preference pane would be a small improvement, but I'd really like to keep the ability to right-click to quit this micro-app (not that I see myself ever quitting it). Thanks for a very nice little piece of work.

For those of you with issues finding the preferences. If you are using a 3-button mouse, or third party mouse, or whatever You can't just press Right click as you would for CTRL-CLICK - You must hold down the CTRL and LEFT CLICK your mouse - I know - it's crazy, but it worked for me. Once I figured that out - I was rolling. The app is great, and coupled with TuneKeys, and DockArt - those three little things replace so much crap I've had to deal with over the years. And what's more, iController works in Tiger, so kudos.

nice app... but how do you access the preferences and turn it off?/?? i tried what the previous poster suggested to no avail... i've tried every conceivable configuration of buttons and nothing happens???

i thing the icontroler is a great applacation it works better than any other controler

when iController displays the controls (not the scrolling text), right click (or command click with a single button mouse) on it and then you can choose the Preferences... what a badly documented app :-)

I love the scrolling text - it's exactly what I wanted - but I dislike the white text in the centre of my screen - Also - no preference panel that I can see, nor is there any way that I can find to quit the program aside from activity monitor or a force quit If there's something I don't know please comment on it for me. thanks so much

Nice app, better than Byte Controller. But it would be better if it was configurable,. I don't like it that the title and artist are displayed all over the screen.
