Music app problems in Big Sur
After upgrading to Big Sur (from scratch, so it has nothing else to blame), Music app has new kind of issue. I feel like I am using Beta software. Music app has improved over time since it was initially introduced. Many issues were resolved and new issues were introduced.
However, the new Music app for macOS from Big Sur introduced these new issues that shouldn't be there. Because they are very basic functions.
Here are issues I have experienced for using only 1 day:
- Drag and drop audio files to Music app. Music app won't start to copy the audio files until it is " on focus". This is a new behavior.
- After drag and drop the audio files, several to many audio files will have and "!" next to it. It indicated file can't be found. I check the music folder, audio files are copied over successfully. I have to manually fix each of them. If I don't fix them, next time when I drag and drop, duplicate files will exist in the music folder. It is consistently to have this problem.
- When I update all the files in an album, some of the files will have "!" next to it. No change to those files. I have to help Music app to find those file and redo all the changes. This get old when I have to do it for many files in each album I added.
As for loading existing album, existing album art, etc. They seem to be working fine. Thank you.
