Cockatoo 1.0 from Intuitive Code (http://www.intuitivecode.com) is a handy application for Mac OS X 10.9 or later for those that need an iTunes management tool beyond Apple’s own iTunes Mini-Player. It lets you easily control your iTunes music player. It costs US$8.99 and is available at the Mac App Store.

Cockatoo quietly waits for you behind the left or right border of the screen, without occupying extra space. You need to move only a mouse to the edge of your screen edge and all your music before you.

Cockatoo is always visible atop other windows, allowing you to control iTunes with a single mouse click. When you launch the app, it automatically starts iTunes and displays information about the track that’s currently playing.

Cockatoo also lets you navigate the track and volume controls and select the next or previous track. For more info go to https://itunes.apple.com/app/id788713417 .
