send a keystroke (or keystroke combination) that will result in fast forwarding through the currently playing song. The PowerPoint Map specifies a keystroke that will result in moving to the next slide. The Keyspan Remote software ships with several Maps for many popular applications so that you don't have to create a Map for these applications.

Tech Note: How To Check What Maps Are Installed:

You can check to see what maps are installed by opening the Keyspan Map Editor. For information how to do this, please read the Changing The Keyspan Remote Software Settings section later in this manual.

How To Control iTunes (aka iTunes Mode)

If you are installing the Keyspan Remote software for the first time, the Keyspan Remote Software enables a feature called 'iTunes Mode'.

IMPORTANT: iTunes Mode is only enabled on computers that are running Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Mac OS X (10.2 or later). iTunes mode also requires iTunes version 4.7 or greater.

When iTunes Mode is enabled, the Keyspan Remote Control Software will only control iTunes regardless of which application you are currently working on. This mode requires that manually launch iTunes first before you can control iTunes however you do not need to have iTunes as the active/foreground application in order to control it. You will be able to play, pause, stop, fast forward, rewind, skip to the next/previous track, control volume, mute, etc. while working in other applications.

To control iTunes, manually launch iTunes by double clicking its icon. Once iTunes is running you can use the Remote for iTunes to control iTunes regardless of which application you are currently working on. Please read the Tech Note: iTunes Mode Button Mapping for a detailed button map for this configuration.
