Major Problem with Music application in Sequoia

[treehorn]

I just updated to Sequoia yesterday and...wish I had waited as I'm encountering a major bug in the Music Application. If I toggle "Get Info" or Command-I to get into the editing screen for a song, clicking to the next or previous song to edit that one as well takes me to a random song in a random album, not the next song in the album. So have to Open a song, make changes, close it, open next song, etc... which is time consuming (and thankfully I noticed this happening before I changed the info of a random song)

I'm also not that thrilled with the changes. Not being able to see all the information of an album in the format we've become accustomed to for decades is...jarring. (yeah it may be redundant but having it all in one place is a lot easier than having it spread out all over the screen). And the "complete my album" is popping up randomly, and takes me to an equally random album.

So far not a fan...

Wow. That is bad. Same on mine. I didn't notice it until I saw your comment.

I submitted it to Apple as a bug (so maybe if more people do it...they will actually fix it...). Glad (?) that I'm not the only one. I was wondering if it was a 'this happens until the library is totally integrated' type of things but it doesn't seem to be...

Yet more reasons why I don't touch new OS's until at least .3

I've just updated to Sequoia and I'm regretting it too. I have dozens of CDs uploaded to my Mac, and now none of them will play in iTunes. Hoping that an update comes out soon to fix this.

The get info when you hit next or previous will take you to the next or previous item in the view you started from. If you sort the song list by album, then the next will take you to the next song in the list.

As usual, the “Major problem” is a tempest in a teapot 🙄

The Music app is a BIG deal to me since have nearly 40K songs in my library, all of them except for 1,400 or so ripped from my CDs. I also have dozens and dozens of playlists. And while I've had lots of Sequoia programs on my 2019 Intel iMac 5K, I've had zero issues with Music. And I hope it stays that way!

It's basically a 20-odd-y/o app. There shouldn't be any 'tempests in teapot' left.
And who are you to decide that a bug that you see as insignificant isn't a showstopper for someone else based on their needs? Hopefully you don't work in UR.

Haven't "upgraded" yet. Can you describe this more? Thanks.

My Music library is at about 90,000 songs and growing. Most are from CD's, some are from Vinyl or Reel-to-reel tapes. Just tried editing the metadata with Music from Sequoia 15.1 and if I viewing my library in song list view and I edit the song metadata and click the "next" button it moves to the next song in the list, clicking the back button takes me back to the previous songs. I add metadata to all my songs when added to my Music library since I like to be to set-up playlists for using all sorts of data I have entered.
