NEW: Playlist XML Viewer v1.0
I got those XMLs I was talking about offloaded. They're easy to reload back into Music and the Music app is less cluttered.
But its kinda hard to tell what's actually listed in an exported playlist XML file. Maybe you like scrolling through XML formatting like a caveman but not me.
Playlist XML Viewer v1.0 can open and view the contents of a playlist XML file exported from the Music app in a conventional table layout. Includes options to load the XML in the Music app, export a TXT, CSV or M3U version (highly recommend the CSV export), copy info to clipboard and reveal existing files in the Finder. (Not for use with exported Library XML files.)
Latest version:
- Initial release

NEW: Show Me the Track Info v1.0
You ever need to look at a track's Info panel and go hip-hopping through the panels to see what you need to know? You ever have to do this for a lot of tracks?
Show Me the Track Info will display track info from the playing or selected track in a floating window that can be configured to show information in a user-configured order. Eight sections within the window can be drag-arranged by their hierarchical importance. The window can then re-sized to only display as much of the information as is necessary. Handy for quickly surveying tracks without having to click-click-click for the Music app's Info panel.

- Initial release

UPDATED: Playlist Manager v5.0
The Music app only allows one playlist to be selected at a time. This applet can perform common useful tasks on a multiple selection of playlists: playlist title renaming (add text, remove text, search and replace text, text transforms), change View, duplicate, delete, export, move to Playlist Folder, merge playlists and remove track copies.
This app is free to try full-featured in Demo Mode. While in Demo Mode, only up to 10 playlists can be manipulated per launch. If you like it you can purchase a code for $2.99 which will unlock the Demo Mode limitation. Launch the app and click "Register..." in its File menu to make an in-app purchase.

UPDATED: De-Genre v6.0
This script re-assigns the tracks of selected Genres to another Genre, ostensibly so that the original--and consequently any un-assigned-Genres--disappear from the Music app's Genre pop-up list. Of course, it can also be used simply to batch-edit Genres without having to assemble the tracks first.
As you may know, you can make superfluous Custom Genres vanish from the Genre pop-up list simply by eliminating a reference to them in your tracks; when no tracks are assigned to a particular Genre, that Genre will be dropped. (Note however that Music's original Genre names cannot be removed this way; only those accumulated from other sources or created by you.)
Latest version:
- Accommodations for macOS 26/Tahoe
- Adds sorting options
- Fixes toggle-size issue

UPDATED: Make Tags All Caps v2.6
This script will change the text in your choice of the Title, Artist/Director, Show, Album, Album Artist, Genre, Comments, Composer and/or Lyrics tags of the selected tracks in the Music or TV app to ALL CAPS.
"I got a request from a DJ'ing Correspondent who had been manually changing some of his tags to all caps so they'd be easier to read on the decks under dim dance floor lights...." (more)
Latest version:
- Adds Album Artist and Custom Lyrics to choices
- v2.5 Oct. 22, 2025
- Accommodations for macOS 26/Tahoe and general maintenance

Keyboard Shortcuts in Tahoe
After installing macOS 26, I couldn't figure out how to assign keyboard shortcuts to AppleScripts in the Music app's Scripts menu. Simply entering the script's name in the System Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts panel along with a key combination and attatching it to "Music" wasn't doing anything.
After a bunch of Dumb Experiments, which is what One Does with AppleScript, I figured it out and here's how to assign keyboard shortcuts to your scripts in the Music app in macOS 26:
Open System Settings and choose "Keyboard" in the left column. In the "Keyboard" panel, press the "Keyboard Shortcuts..." button. In the left column of the panel that opens, click "App Shortcuts". Press the "+" button to add a new shortcut to a menu item.
Set Application to "All Applications" (not "Music"). For the Menu title, enter "Scripts->" followed by the exact name of the script as it appears in the Music app's Scripts menu. Then enter your keyboard combination.
Click "Done" and back out of all that System Settings stuff. If you don't see the shortcut you entered displayed next to the name of the script in the Scripts menu, try restarting the Music app. If you still don't see it, perhaps the shortcut you entered is used elsewhere and can't be over-ridden. So try again with a different shortcut.
UPDATED: Artwork as Album Folder Icon v3.3
This script will use the will use the assigned artwork from the selected tracks as the icon for the folder containing each track's corresponding file in the Finder--presumably, this is the file's "Album" folder.
Latest version:
- Accommodations for macOS 26/Tahoe
- Removed "droplet" capability
- Revamped UI

UPDATED: Display File Path v3.3
This script will float alongside the Music app and continuously monitor it for a single track to be selected and display that track's file path (if it exists); or the script can be set to likewise display the file path of each playing track. Includes Show in Finder and Copy Path to Clipboard options.
Latest version:
- Fixed Copy to clipboard issue
- Added contextual menu to window
- Accommodations for macOS 26/Tahoe

UPDATED: Save Album Art to Album Folder v7.5
This script will export the artwork of each of the selected tracks (or the tracks in a selected playlist) as an image file to the folder which contains each selected track's file--presumably each track's Album folder--or to a single user-selected folder. If multiple album tracks are selected, the script will make sure only one artwork file per Album is exported.
