Hi All,
I installed the Sequoia OS 15 update on my M3 iMac, and now Apple Music crashes after about 15 minutes of use, when I try to drag a song into another playlist. Is this a known bug, and if so, when is the new update coming out to fix it?
Thanks,
Steven
iMac 24″, macOS 15.0
I updated the software OS hoping it would fix the problem. Now instead of crashing instantly when dragging a song to another playlist window, now it crashes when moving a song in a single playlist as well! Good job apple!
I updated to 15.1.1 and it appears that my Apple Music problems on my iMac are gone. Yay! Unfortunately, I keep getting the error that I have too many programs open, and I must close things down. I told the Apple Senior Advisor, when he replaced my lemon iMac 2020 after three years with this computer, that 8 Gb of ram wasn't going to do it with me being and Adobe AI and Photoshop user, but he said it would be fine. If I could upgrade the memory, it would, but I'm stuck. Also, after every time I am forced to restart, my finder window previews settings default back to the icons. As long as I am belly aching, I hate the apple Magic Keyboard. I replaced it with a $20 gaming keyboard with large keys, and it works much better with my art programs. Also the Magic Mouse jumps all over the screen sometimes when I accidentally move my finger a millimeter sideways. I have a wired staples mouse to fix that problem. Now I can get some work done! And finally do my Christmas playlists in Apple Music.
I use Affinity Photo, Design and Publisher, but these programs are not running at the time I attempt to use the Music app and I also have 64GB of Ram. Upgrading to 15.1.1 has not fixed my issue with my Music app. Hopefully, Apple will come up with a fix for me before Christmas or I'll have to use alternative methods to play my Christmas playlists. : (
Hey guys,
Music crashed by my MacBook Air 2020 (M1) also. Today i updated to 15.1.1 and the songs i couldn't drag'n'drop to another playlist's now workin!! You should update to 15.1.1
Cheers,
Steffen
I almost exclusively use recordings that I have made. And I experienced the same thing you do. Some songs, crash music, and some songs don’t. Some songs can’t be found. There was one upgrade when this problem disappeared, and I could move all the songs and the songs I hadn’t been able to find were suddenly there again. I have no idea if it’s an indexing problem – that’s way above my pay grade!
I had This problem when I updated to Sequoia on my 2019 MacBook Pro. I got a new 2024 MacBook Pro and it’s having the same problem so I assume it’s not a hardware problem. I also got that same message that it was a kernel problem. But I think it’s something going on with the software.
My Apple Music is usable again, without crashes, but I am still running 15.1.1. I'm afraid to update! Unfortunately, I have been having song art glitches. If I try to delete the existing art, it won't highlight and give me the option. I found that if I click it "softly," that it will let me select. If I click "firmly" it won't. I don't know if that makes sense. Then sometimes it behaves normally. My 4 pane art preview at the top of my list sometimes shows up as just red too. On my phone it shows up correctly sometimes, and sometimes not. Very frustrating bug!
The latest macOS 15.3 is now available. I have no problem with the Music app anymore.
I can confirm that songs that were crashing Music didn’t have an album name. When I added one I could move the song and not crash Music.
Same here. It's completely ridiculous. If I want to create a new playlist and add songs from another playlist the app consistently crashes. Why is there not a fix for this?????
Thank you!!
life saver thank you so much 👍🏻🤩🙏🏻
Thank you for posting the fix. This was driving me crazy.
Most of my recordings are ones I made. Some of them are crashing Music even if they have all the information like album titles. It's worse again since the last update.
Mine is still crashing with 15.3.2 - it's worse since the .3.2 update.
