Re: iTunes as default player

I'm having a similar problem... iTunes used to be registered in the Set User
Defaults but after the latest update from iTunes, it's now not in there. I'm
assuming this would be something that Apple would have to resolve due to an
upgrade? Or could it be related to permissions and not being able to
properly register those keys when performing the upgrade?
