UPDATED: Time of Selected v1.0
This script will simply display the total time of the selected tracks. This information is also displayed if the Music app's Status Bar is displayed. But [an irritated Correspondent let me know that] the Status Bar is no longer available when viewing a loaded CD. Oversight or feature?
Handier when assigned a keyboard shortcut.
Latest version:
- Initial release
More information for Time of Selected v1.0 and download link is here.
UPDATED: Lyrics Tag Viewer v1.1
View and edit a selected track's Custom Lyrics tag in a non-modal window, which, unlike a track's Info panel, will not block keyboard and mouse activity in the Music app's interface.
Latest version:
- Works around an issue that prevented exporting as text
- Minor adjustments and fixes

UPDATED: Rate Me! Rate Me! v6.8
This stay-open applet watches your playing tracks and when one begins playing displays a notification-sized panel whereby a Rating and/or Favorite or Suggest Less for the track can be entered. Features options to display only unrated playing tracks and timer preferences for how soon and how long the panel is displayed.
While you could easily rate the current track from the Music app's icon in the Dock, this script interrupts you and compels you to do so.
Latest version:
- Fixes issue with misdetecting computed ratings
- Fixes issue which could prevent correctly updating Favorite/Suggest Less
- Fixes issue that might ignore "Show for unrated tracks only" setting

This script will remove any number of extra space characters at the beginning and ending of chosen tags (Title, Artist/Director, Album Artist, Album, Composer, Genre, Grouping, Movement, Work and Show) in the selected tracks.
Latest version:
- Maintenance and minor performance fixes for Sonoma

UPDATED: CD-Text to CD Info v6.3
This applet will attempt to extract the CD-Text information from the selected audio CD in the Music app and apply it to the CD's disc and track tags.
Some commercial CDs and commercial CD burning software (including the Music app) can use CD-Text as a method of including text data on an audio CD. This data can include Artist (Performer), Album, Composer, Track Title, and Genre info. See the Read Me for more information.
Latest version:
- Maintenance and minor performance fixes
- Tested under macOS Sonoma 14

- Maintenance and minor performance fixes

UPDATED: Multi-Item Edit v7.8
This applet will allow you to view and edit most tags (and some additional options) of the selected track(s) in a single floating window using single-edit mode (one selected track) or multi-edit mode, which emulates the pre-iTunes 12 "multiple items" format; that is, a checkbox adjacent to each tag allows you to select which changes are to be applied to the selection's tags.
Can also be used to copy collected tags from one set of tracks to another set of tracks by toggling "Information Tracking".
Latest version:
- Minor UI update to mimic media apps' Favorite and Suggest Less terminology
