why work on Music when you can add a voice plan or whatever the hell that is
The audacity to have an event which focuses on Music and the Mac and to not address the elephant in the room that is Music on the Mac was quite somethingwhy work on Music when you can add a voice plan or whatever the hell that is

Have you noticed any issues with prior embedded album art.No new Music.app version in Monterey RC
Some Apple Music songs in my library lost their album art by random, I had to re-add them for the album art to show up again. Not sure if that's an issue with local songs.Have you noticed any issues with prior embedded album art.
Ah ok. I don’t use Apple Music. So hopefully it’s just the steaming songs.Some Apple Music songs in my library lost their album art by random, I had to re-add them for the album art to show up again. Not sure if that's an issue with local songs.
I don’t understand. Do you mean downloaded songs that you add to library?Looks like the Music App no longer pulls tracks added to the "Automatically Add to Music" folder? I just installed macOS 12.0.1 from macOS 11.6.1 and this is the first issue I've seen I'm not able to get beyond.
:::EDIT:::
I'm still able to use the Import option to add tracks that way, I'm just used to dumping tracks into the Smart Folder and the Music App doing the rest.
Yes. I get a lot of music from BandCamp and add a lot of my own music I’ve created with my friend and our band. I would just add any of those tracks to the “Automatically Add to Music” folder, and then the Music app would watch that folder and move any items into your Library. This has been a regular feature of the Music app and iTunes for many years.I don’t understand. Do you mean downloaded songs that you add to library?
So if you drag music into music player it doesn’t add it? For me anytime I play an mp3 it just automatically adds to my library.Yes.

Yes, that works, too. I've just been used to having this built in Smart Folder functionality for many years. I haven't really tried any troubleshooting, yet, other than a reboot. I intend on reinstalling macOS 12.0.1 again when it's official, too. I've found plenty of other odd behaviors throughout the OS, so who knows.So if you drag music into music player it doesn’t add it?

Well, for me, I just kept everything in place and updated. All of my old iTunes Folders are now Music.app folders. Haven't had any issues from having an old iTunes Library migrated over. I'd suggest keeping a backup of all of that, though.Hello everyone, I plan on doing a clean install of Monterey next week so I would like to transfer my whole Music/iTunes Library. I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but I'm a bit confused on how should I do it, because since the transition the "Music" app from iTunes, this is how my music folders look:

Should I copy both folders upon clean install? or is there a better way to transfer the music library seamlessly?
thanks in advance!
Don’t you already have Big Sur? So you would already have the “music app”.Hello everyone, I plan on doing a clean install of Monterey next week so I would like to transfer my whole Music/iTunes Library.

I have the same issue. I have Big Sur installed, but all my music is still under iTunes Media.Don’t you already have Big Sur? So you would already have the “music app”.
Does Monterey change anything.
I have the same issue. I have Big Sur installed, but all my music is still under iTunes Media.
I'd also like to know how to move everything safely to its proper location.
Is Music stable or the OS itself? Music is stable enough, but both RC1 and RC2 caused overnight kernel panics on my 2020 iMac, which has never happened during any beta.I have a question for those who have been on the RC, is it stable enough at this point? Or we should better wait until macOS 12.1? I don't care staying at 11.6.1 for a couple of months, or even more.
Thank you.
Excuse me, Erik, provided that this was a sticky thread, I misread the thread title and thought it was a macOS 12 bugs, issues and troubleshooting. My mistake.Is Music stable or the OS itself?
