Apple Music Won't Save Manually Added Lyrics

Manually added lyrics disappear after trying to save them in the lyrics tab of a song. The mac music app needs major improvements overall.

Hi RVBreezy,


It sounds like you're running into an issue when you try to enter lyrics manually in the Music app, and we'd like to help.


To help us get a better understanding of the issue, we’d like to ask a few questions.


  1. Can you let us know more about what happens when you try to add/save lyrics? For example, do you see any errors? If so, what does the error say?
  2. Do the lyrics disappear immediately after attempting to save them, or do they seem to save successfully, but they don't appear when you try to view them later?
  3. Which macOS version is your Mac running? Here's how to check: Find out which macOS your Mac is using
  4. If you're using macOS Catalina, are you using the steps under the "Enter song lyrics" part of the following page: View and enter lyrics in Music on Mac
  5. Does this happen with all songs, or just certain ones?


Thanks!
