NEW: Save Album Art to Photos v1.0
Years ago it seemed to make sense to have a script that exported track artwork to iPhoto—as it was known at the time. So I made such a thing. But sometime around iPhoto 5 it got too cumbersome to deal with and maintain, and so I abandoned it.
I revisited it recently and doesn't seem so cumbersome now. Huh.
Save Album Art to Photos will export the artwork of the selected Music app tracks as image files to the Photos app. Includes options for changing image format, chosing a destination Photos album, custom keyword creation and more.

UPDATED: Tracks Without Embedded Artwork v3.2
MP3, AAC and ALAC audio files have the capability to store artwork image data internally as metadata, thus allowing artwork to "travel" with a file. This applet will examine the files of the selected tracks (or tracks in the selected playlist) for artwork metadata. Eligible audio tracks whose files are capable of embedding image data but do not contain artwork metadata will be copied to a new discrete playlist.
Note: Music-assigned artwork may not necessarily be embedded as metadata; pre-ID3v2 MP3s do not store image data; this applet ignores how the Finder may or may not display an audio file's icon image.
Latest version:
- Maintenance release, general updating
- Tested successfully in macOS Sonoma 14

UPDATED: Drop and Export Artwork v3.0
Drag-and-drop one or more audio files that contain embedded image metadata to export the image data as a JPEG or PNG file named using tag metadata from each file. Has options to save image files with the source audio files or as a batch in a single user-selected folder.
Latest version:
- Generally updated from previous 2019 version
- Tested successfully in macOS Sonoma beta
