Shortcut for selecting the first song result from search in iTunes Often times I find myself searching for a song in my library and as expected iTunes filters my results. I wanted to know is there a quick way for me to be a to jump right to that first result instead of manually mousing over and clicking it to play. You would think it would be the tab button but that directs me to the left column.
Assuming the sidebar isn't shown (the current default), in iTunes v 11.3.1, I'm able to:


search (hit enter if you get the popdown results instead of the full window update)
tab 
even though the song
isn't highlighted, I can just hit space and the top song starts
playing.


If you use the arrow keys instead, you can see that the first song gets selected, and then you can navigate the search results from there.

If the sidebar IS shown, everything is the same, but you'll need to hit tab twice.  As an aside, toggle the sidebar with ⌘alts

This is on Mac, on Windows YMMV.
