Having a really odd experience with Music.app.

Imported an album as normal, which plays as normal. So far, everything is fine.

Try to copy to my iPod: no dice.

Try to edit the metadata: nope.

Right click > Show in Finder: It either shows it as being in the SSD’s root folder, or does go to the correct folder in the Music library, but the folder is empty.

Tried restarting the app, but it’s doing the same.

Seems that it’s an issue with iCloud and matching. As soon as the match happens, the music doesn’t play.

However, I tried dragging the music into the correct folder in the library, then adding it from there. It took it out of the libraary and put it somewhere else. I don’t know where.

I am confuse.

Might have worked out the cause, but can’t figure out how to fix it.

I acquired a different version of the album I’m having trouble with, to rule out the files being the issue.

Imported the new files, everything’s fine. Changed the metadata, waited half a minute, the track becomes unplayable and lost in the system.

So it’s something to do with how AM is writing metadata, I think. But I’m fucked if I can figure out why.

@DJDarren Is it possible you are now a ghost?

@troberts Entirely possible. I’m like Bruce Willis, but instead of being a child psychologist, I’m stuck in an eternity of having to troubleshoot Mac issues.

@DJDarren This eventuality happens surprisingly often. Hope you solve the Mac issue and/or who murdered you.

@troberts Oh, no one murdered me. It’ll have been my own gross negligence somehow.
