Add Pop-Up Notifications to iTunes with a Terminal Command [ITunes]

Add Pop-Up Notifications to iTunes with a Terminal CommandOS X: If you want to find out who's playing in iTunes, you either need to right-click the icon or open it, but Macworld found a method that only requires a little work in terminal and enables a small pop-up to show up on your dock to show the currently playing track.

The process is simple, but only works in OS X Lion. First, boot up Terminal in your Utilities folder on a Mac, then, type:

defaults write com.apple.dock itunes-notifications -bool TRUE;killall Dock

Now, when you're playing a track a small pop-up will show in your dock for a few seconds with information on the currently playing track. If you decide you don't like it, disabling it is simple. Back in Terminal, type:

defaults delete com.apple.dock itunes-notifications

For ways to customize the pop-up, hit up the post linked below.
