Continuing with Script after x amount of seconds

[rmusick 0]

Is there a way to make my script continue after x amount of seconds if a window doesnt show?

For example. I am using AutoIt to accept the EULA, and set up the Librarys for each new user that uses iTunes. It works great the first time but if they launch iTunes again after its setup the AI Script hangs since the shortcut points to the AI Script and not to itunes inteself. Anyone know how to get around this?

WinWait(), WinExists(), WinWaitActive(), etc. have a timeout parameter. Read the help file.

Edit: Oops, of course WinExists() doesn't have a timeout... but the others do.
