According to John Martyn JAWS scripter extraordinaire and A-#1
blindness accessibility dude (at least in my book) has discovered the
new version of iTunes has had its accessibility hooks either removed
or disabled. No MSAA, no Microsoft Universal Interface (UI) support,
all gone. The scripts that both FS and BlindTunes provide no longer
work. John's been peddling uphill to get even some semblance of
accessibility back into his script product. He's been talking with
Glen Gordon from FS and the accessibility group from Apple, but has no
assurance that the access hooks he formerly used to make BlindTunes
work will come back in any future versions. The next scheduled release
of iTunes for Windows is in a month's time, so we'll all just hold our
collective breath until either John can get 12.1 working, or the next
release heralds the return of the accessibility features on which
we've come to rely.
