Click to expand... Alt+ Tab (till you get to Itunes) then hit the space bar. I know that is not what you are looking for but it is an option.

20rogersc macrumors 65816 Aug 27, 2005 #6 I'm on a *shudders* windows pc at the moment, and have just opened iTunes. The quickest way that I have found is that you can right hand click on the iTunes icon in the 'tray' at the bottom, and then click 'pause'. Hope this helps. ::20ROGERSC::
