    Import Windows iTunes library into Catalina Music?

    I tried copying over my Windows iTunes library, and opening the .itl library file with the "Choose Library..." feature when option-clicking the Music.app, but it doesn't accept it as a valid library. Has anyone figured out how to import a Windows Library into Music?

    Tv app on Catalina

    Has anyone been able to watch HBO, CBS , etc on the TV app with an existing subscription? All it lets me to is signup and not login. They all work fine on my iPhone iPad and AppleTV. I did the update on 10/15 also.

    macOS Automatic loading of .zshrc inside a zsh script

    Hi, In Mojave I ran simple bash scripts by just writing them in text and saving as script.sh and then running from terminal. In principle the same scripts do work in zsh in Catalina. But now in Catalina the same scripts often cause errors by not loading dyld libraries. I can fix the error by...

    Language Switcher gone in Catalina?!?

    I updated yesterday. I work in multiple languages. Command+1 used to bring up a handy popup menu to let me cycle through keyboards (like the command+tab menu for apps, but vertical instead of horizontal). In the new OS, I'm not getting the keyboard menu. Command+1 has a new function. A...

    Does macOS Catalina 10.15 fit in a bootable 8GB USB flash drive ?

    Previous versions up until Mojave 10.14 did fit in a bootable 8GB USB flash drive but when you download macOS Catalina 10.15 from the App Store it says is an 8.09GB download so I guess it won´t fit in an 8GB USB flash drive. Has someone already tried to make a Catalina bootable USB flash drive...

    Facetime in Catalina can't access LG 5k built in camera.

    Actually no apps can so it's either related to the applications not requesting access or catalina is just broken

    iPod Classic Sync Frozen

    I had the misfortune of upgrading to Catalina and have been frozen for the past two hours or so trying to sync my iPod Classic. iTunes is no more so it syncs in a Finder window, even though the sync option is in "Music". Anyway it's been rotating ceaselessly for a long time now with no change...
