music progress bar

I never realized how many times I look to see how far along in a song I am, or how long until the end, until the timer went away.

How do I turn on the song time in the progress bar? I can rest my cursor there and it shows up, but I might need my cursor for other things... Any help?

Display song duration in MacOS Music Hi everyone. Is there a way to permanently display the song duration counter in MacOS music on Catalina? It appears if I hover over the box with the song title in it but then disappears again. Any way to make it stay there?

How to keep elapsed time showing in Song Title Window? (reviving a thread) Hello - I'm an engineer for a community radio station and running into a problem with Apple Music since updating Mac OS (it had been a while since last updating and now on Big Sur). Found a thread originally posted by "Mrs Spooky" in 2019 that is now closed, but unresolved. It is exactly my issue so pasting it below. Does any one know if this has a solution? Thank you! I am an internet DJ and use a Mac application to stream the music from my iTunes (now Apple Music) library. We depend on viewing the countdown of how much time is left in the song when we have another DJ starting right after us so we can count them in so they can start immediately when we finish - so there's no gap. This new app only shows elapsed and remaining time when the app is active and mouse is over that part of the application window. This is a terrible hardship for DJs who need to be able to see the remaining time while another application is active. Is there a preference, setting, or hack that we can use to make that visible like it was before in the old iTunes app? Many thanks in advance!

progress bar for your currently playing song in i-Tunes on old Macbook Pro I have an old 2012 Macbook Pro. The progress bar of the currently playing song in iTunes- IS MISSING. I have tried what other posts say about the Up Next - that doesn't work for me. It just disappeared about a week ago!? The progress bar, which shows where you are (minutes and seconds) in the song and allows you to scrub (move) to different parts, is missing.

That is a "feature" of Apple Music. Unfortunately, there is not a way to make it stay.

Really? Gotta love upgrades (especially when "upgrades" take away old "features.") Thanks for letting me know.
