The for you, browse and radio still don't connect to the App Store for me, just states "an error occurred". Anyone else seeing this or found a fix?
Anyone else have the annoying 'other' folder on LaunchPad? I've tried resetting my LaunchPad preferences but it still shows up after a reboot.
A lot of my album art has returned. Still having issues with a few albums, but by and large this update has fixed missing album art for me.
That’s good news to my ears. Still not risking the betas but it’s sounding more promising for release
I could not uncheck the "Automatically update artwork" on beta 6 - this has been fixed in Beta 7 and can now be UN-selected
The worse option would have been rebuilding from scratch. Could you imagine how many features would have gone missing then? When was even the last time Apple created a Mac app from scratch? Photos?
Yeah I’m a little bothered by some of the changes, but I prefer the starting point here rather than a Marzipan iPad app or something similar.
Hi! Does anybody have trouble setting custom artwork in the Music App? After Reading here that artworks started to show again, I tried to set up a custom artwork while on DB 6, wasn't working, updated to DB 7 tonight, tried this morning still not saving my custom artwork.
Without the column browser (I am still in disbelief it was removed) it would be nice if the filter would stay permanently in the main screen ? It is almost useless the way is is now (beta 7) because it disappears if you change the screen, click on artwork, look away from the screen etc and then you have to go the menu again to get it back
Also I thought it might be a way to use with the Search box to enter 2 search criteria - example Search-"Elton John", filter-"Madman Across The Water" - but that does not work either
If you have an large music library - you will need to know the exact name of the song, album etc to find it. Column browser was easy - just a few mouse clicks
Using the search box seems to default to Album view only
Do you really now have to scroll all the way up to the top of the sidebar every time you want to search for something ?! How is this an improvement in any way?
Some sync issues in Music fixed by installing ItunesAccess https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/has-anyone-gotten-an-ipod-shuffle-2nd-gen-to-work.2196567/
You can use keyboard shortcut for search: Cmd+F or filter in current view Cmd+Shift+F
Music app looks bit different on the new (?) marketing images.
// Update: It's updated on beta 8.
// Update 2: The artworks are no longer darkened.

Really glad they are still making UI changes at this stage. The new top bar looks great.
Is anyone still experiencing the iCloud folders all jacked up after this install? I rolled back to Mojave - but I'm hesitant to try Catalina again since iCloud was totally screwed. I know the readme says there are sill a "few possible issues" - but how bad is it for real?
"Consolidate files does not works: the files are not copied to the Media folder" - this issue is fixed in b8.
