What's Up with macOS 26 Tahoe and Music

For reasons unknown but guessable, it really doesn't appear like macOS 26 was ready for Prime Time. Nor many of its components. Including the Music and TV apps. And their AppleScripting capabilities.

But I've noticed that things are getting better as the macOS 26.1 Betas are released.

Several Correspondents have contacted me regarding problems with the reveal command. It is currently broken. The reveal command is used in an AppleScript Music script to select and highlight a track or a playlist. This borks, as we say, the features of several scripts.

However, in the latest macOS 26.1 Beta 4, reveal track works again but not reveal playlist. So...good-ish news?

Somewhat related—I think—is that set view of front browser window to playlist "Brit Blues" to select and highlight a playlist doesn't work either. But you can get view of front browser window.

The inconsistency suggests to me that "they just haven't gotten around to everything yet".

On another note, Regular Visitors may notice that I am updating many of the scripts. Believe it or not, its mostly UI stuff; windows in macOS 26 use larger corner radiuses which sort of squeezes the available real estate. Thus, stuff has to be re-aligned and so on. Otherwise my symmetry OCD will kill me.
