Itunes multi playlist export mac#
You can have more than one library on a mac and you switch between them by holding option when you click to open iTunes. Save it somewhere outside your music library folder.This includes all your playlists, play counts, other metadata, but not actual music (so the file is small).Copy entire /Users/iaizzi/Music/ folder to an external hard drive.I manage the music on my Mac and sync it to my phone by USB. Songs a mixture of imported mp3s and songs purchased from iTunes store.iPhone Xr 256 GB iOS 14.4.2 (current version).Mid 2020 Macbook Air (Intel), 1TB SSD, macOS 11.2.3 Big Sur (current version).Note: that I am going to refer to the app on my mac as iTunes (even though it is called music) for clarity.
I also found that genius had not been working for a while, but it’s hard to tell if that was related.
I would find duplicates of songs purchased from iTunes (one version in the cloud, one downloaded one), occasionally syncing my phone would cause playlists to duplicate, “playlist” and “playlist 1”, other things like that. I tried leaving it running overnight, and it never stopped.įor more context: I have been having on and off problems with my music library since at least 2019. The most immediate problem: ever since upgrading to macOS Big Sur, opening iTunes starts a background process “AMPArtworkAgent” which would run at high CPU usage in the background, not apparently doing anything at all. This is off the usual theme of my blog posts, but I had this problem with my music library on my mac and I couldn’t find any solution online and Apple support didn’t quite know what to do either, so I wanted to document how I fixed it for others.
