You need to download the Last.FM Scrobbler to scrobble from iTunes:

Yeah I've got it all set up since I used to scrobble from the Media Player. I've downloaded all the plugins but I can't see the option anywhere and everything online only deals with Ipods when I just want to scrobble from the library.

Reinstall the scrobbler. It'll ask you if you'd like to hook it up to iTunes, then it should work.

Ah right, I thought you meant you'd been looking in the iTunes menus :laugh:

oh I give up, it recognises the songs I'm playing from the library but it won't scrobble them.

Maybe your firewall is blocking the last fm thingy from contacting the internet.

Oh if it's recognising the tracks, it's probably just a problem with Last.fm's servers. Sometimes it happens.

Maybe Last.FM is unable to scrobble songs from your iTunes folders?

Go to Tools > Options and then click 'Scrobbling' to check if they're covered...

It says that's it's not in a directory that will scrobble. Oh well I'm just gonna pack it in for the moment but thanks for your help guys.

I've clicked everything, Last.Fm can scrobble from anywhere on my computer but it's still not working. Typical sh*tty apple programs, makes everything 10 times more complicated then it should be.

Thanks for your help anyway.

Ah I got it now, I just had to uncheck everything to scrobble and then recheck them. All that bother for nothing! :laugh:
