Taking Screenshots of iTunes movies

[Hubert]

iTunes ruined my day today my not letting me screenshot a video I downloaded off of iTunes. Anyone know a way to bypass this?

You using Windows or Mac?

Mac: setup a screenshot keyboard shortcut in the keyboards preferences pane. Open iTunes in full screen mode and start snapping.

Windows: Just use prtscrn

If its windows 7, you also have a thing called "Snipping Tool"

if prtscrn fails you, try that. You may be able to download it if you don't have it...

VLC player has a built-in screenshot tool

Try using SnagIt. It should work.

I have a Mac, and keyboard shortcuts I've tried, but they don't work.

Try using SnagIt. It should work.

I will check that out. Thanks in advance!

Pfft...apparently my computer is just a tad too short of the qualifications for SnagIt...

So go to the keyboard preferences pane and see what's wrong

I'm not sure that you understand the problem, Vincent...it is that iTunes has it set up so that people can't screenshot for copyright reasons...and I am trying to figure out a way that I can bypass that.
