Click the red download button. A .zip file will be downloaded to your "Downloads" folder.

The .zip file should open a disk image (.dmg) file which will mount and display in the Finder.
Now, open a new Finder window and navigate to your [username]/Library/iTunes/Scripts/ folder.

If there is no folder named "Scripts" there, create one.
Select and drag the files from the disk image window into the "Scripts" folder. Scripts placed in this folder will appear in the iTunes Scripts menu.
Close the disk image window and eject it from the Finder sidebar.

Randomize tracks in playlist

Randomize v1.0

Randomizes the order of tracks in the selected iTunes Playlist then over-writes the old one. Purportedly "more random" then iTunes' shuffle mode. Takes its time to work, but effective.

Designated as a Retro Script because: Obsolete.

OBLIGATORY WARNING! Because this script has been designated as a "Retro Script" there is no guarantee that it will function as described and may even corrupt or destroy data.
