Hey guys, wish that I was kidding but I am actually pretty serious. Its not a big deal, but for some reason, at 12:33 AM every night, itunes starts playing "Free Bird by Lynard Skinard" go figure. I dont know why it happens, but it happens almost every night, any possible explanations? thanks.

What I'm hearing here is that this isn't really your machine. You've bought it from "some guy" and didn't erase it. Until you do this, it's not really yours. It's Skynard's.

Ok interesting.

There's at least one program/app that can do this. It's called iTunes Music Alarm. It's actually a script that runs continuously and can be set to play any of your iTunes tracks as an alarm.

A colleague at work uses it as a reminder.

I'm sure there are other programs that can do something similar.

Have you downloaded such an alarm app?

If not perhaps someone who has access to your Mac and has a sense of humour has done it to wind you up?
