I have created an autohotkey script that allows me to change itunes songs when i'm not in itunes. It works fine, except when i am in firefox. here is my code

Code:
;
; AutoHotkey Version: 1.x
; Language:       English
; Platform:       Win9x/NT/XP/Vista/7
; Author:         €M€RY$T€€L€
;
; Script Function:
;   Template script (you can customize this template by editing "ShellNew\Template.ahk" in your Windows folder)
;

#NoEnv  ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.

SendMode Input  ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.

SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

SetNumlockState, AlwaysOn  ;turns numlock to always on.

F7::
IfWinExist, ahk_class iTunes
ControlSend, ahk_parent, ^{LEFT}  ; < previous
return

F8::
IfWinExist, ahk_class iTunes
ControlSend, ahk_parent, {SPACE}  ; play/pause toggle
return

F9::
IfWinExist, ahk_class iTunes
ControlSend, ahk_parent, ^{RIGHT}  ; > next
return

F10::
Send {Volume_Mute}  ; vol master mute.
return

F11::
IfWinExist, ahk_class iTunes
ControlSend, ahk_parent, ^{DOWN}  ; vol down
return

F12::
IfWinExist, ahk_class iTunes
ControlSend, ahk_parent, ^{UP}  ; vol up
return

maybe instead of ahk_parent use ahk_class iTunes if the iTunes window is opened? WindowSpy it if you have it in a tool bar.

I have also noticed that the code below does not work in firefox but works in any other window.

Code:
F1::Run C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoHotkey\AppleAluminumKeyboard\monitoroff.bat  ; turns monitor off.
return

I'm willing to bet because that hotkey is used by firefox to trigger the help file. Add * in front of F1 so it becomes a hotkey instead.

Code:
*F1::Run C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoHotkey\AppleAluminumKeyboard\monitoroff.bat  ; turns monitor off.
return

I figured it out. I need to run the script as Administrator to make it work.
