Ask Different is a question and answer site for power users of Apple hardware and software. It's 100% free, no registration required.

The methods that worked in 10.4 - 10.6 don't seem to work under Lion anymore, namely:

defaults write com.apple.iChat iTunesMessageFormat -string '♫ %Track - %Artist'
defaults write com.apple.iChatAgent iTunesMessageFormat -string '♫ %Track - %Artist'

I've also verified that the com.apple.iChatAgent.plist has the iTunesMessageFormat entry.. no dice, only shows as Title - Artist.

Does anyone have a method to set 10.7's iChat 'Current iTunes Song' status back to Artist - Track order?
