Any way for Apple Music to edit song? If not, how?

It seems like in the stripping down of iTunes, Apple deleted the ability to edit the length of a song. Or am I wrong? Is it somewhere else that I haven't found? If that's no longer possible, is it possible with any other Apple (or other) app? I can use Garage Band but it's always so much to remember I'd rather use something simpler.


Thoughts? Feelings? Insights? All welcome.

James,


It works the same as it did in iTunes. Right-click the track, Get Info, go to the Options tab, and set the Start and/or Stop times. OK when done.

This is so strange. My dictation wasn't working yesterday ago, so I thought well, there's an update to install, maybe that will fix it? And it did! So now, reading your reply, I thought "But ed is wrong, there is not even an options tab anymore — there are only five now!" But I booted it up and guess what came back....... yes, Options. Interesting.


I wonder if other things they took away from iTunes will tiptoe back the same way.


Thanks for answering, I probably never would have looked again and found them.
