Hey guys,

So I noticed that ever since I updated to 10.7.1, the script I use through Geektool won't display my music on my desktop anymore. The script is below, does anyone have a fix?

Code:
#!/bin/sh
if ps -x -o command \
 | grep '^/Applications/iTunes.app/' \
 | grep -q -v 'iTunesHelper';  then
osascript -e 'tell application "iTunes"
set trackname to name of current track
set artistname to artist of current track
set albumname to album of current track
if albumname is null then
set albumshow to " "
else if albumname is "" then
set albumshow to " "
else 
set albumshow to "" & albumname & "" 
end if
set trackduration to duration of current track
set trackposition to player position
set elapsed to round (trackposition / trackduration * 100)
set myRating to round ((rating of current track) / 20)
if myRating is 1 then
set myRating to "* "
else if myRating is 2 then
set myRating to "** "
else if myRating is 3 then
set myRating to "*** "
else if myRating is 4 then
set myRating to "**** "
else if myRating is 5 then
set myRating to "***** "
else
set myRating to ""
end if
set myRating to myRating
set output to "" & trackname & "\n\n" & artistname  & "\n\n" & albumshow & "\n" & myRating 
  end tell' | iconv -f utf-8 -t ucs-2-internal
fi
