OK, so it sounds like you could have it minimized instead of hidden and that
would work, right? If so, this VB Script will work (although since it uses
Wscript.Shell, you can't run it with "do as VBScript", but instead need to
write it to a .vbs file and execute the file):
' Assumes iTunes is already open
Set Shell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
Shell.AppActivate "iTunes"
Shell.SendKeys "% n"
(BTW: that's a space between the '%' and the 'n')
