iTunes out of memory message

Hi I added the Applescript that Add Found to Each Album in Playlist and Selected to Album in Playlist and now whenever i try to use it an error message pops up 'iTunes out of memory'.

Anyone knows what this is and how to remedy this?

Maybe you could re-post the script names (accurately ;-) or perhaps even provide links? It'd be easier on the people you're asking to help you....

Try running the script (scripts?) with just one track (or a one-item playlist) selected -- still get the error?

LOL -- still don't know which script to test ("Artwork-Selected to Album in Playlist" or "Artwork-Add Found to Each Album in Playlist"? ;-)

IIRC, the out-of-memory error occurs when a script tries to grab track art that doesn't exist; there may be more cases where the same error occurs.

Applescripting art has never been a very smooth thing in iTunes, but the logic in those two scripts looks OK in a quick read... Maybe you should test again, keeping this in mind -- the "Artwork-Add Found to Each Album in Playlist" script isn't looking at the tracks you've selected; it's looking at the playlist that's being displayed. So if you've got your Music listing displayed and have one track selected, the script is actually trying to process every music track you've got -- that may just be too much of a load.

If you're using the "Artwork-Add Found to Each Album in Playlist" script, try creating a playlist with just one track in it, and see how that goes....
