Since iTunes is no more, can anyone tell me what the updated version of this Terminal command would be now?


sudo chmod +x /Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/MacOS/iTunes


I used its sister command (-x instead of +x) to disable the Play/Pause button on my keyboard, because it was getting confused and controlling the media playing in my browser as well as controlling my Spotify app. It was also always opening the Music app by default if I accidentally hit the button.


I regret that now and I'm trying to re-enable it, but I'm getting an error in Terminal:


chmod: /Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/MacOS/iTunes: No such file or directory


Which makes sense, since there is no app named iTunes on macos 12.3.1 anymore. But now I'm stuck.


Does anyone have any idea how I can reactivate the Play/Pause button on my Mac keyboard?


Thanks!
