I rename my playlists in iTunes and sometimes it'll even show it changed in the middle of screen if you click on the playlist but never in the sidebar? I've rebooted, restarted, made sure Family Sharing is off...I'm out of ideas.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 14.5
Playlist problem complaints are proliferating on Apple Discussions and Reddit. 14.7.1 (non-beta) came out last night. It also does not fix the problem. I heard the same was true for the latest Sequia. I'm feeling quite depressed at this point, since Music/iTunes is a critical part of my music production workflow, let alone listening habits.
SOLUTION: Well, Apple deleted a link to the solution (that also contains a screenshot to be helpful). The short answer is that, to get around this problem, we are forced to add Playlist artwork (or select one presented) when renaming or creating a Playlist. If you add or select artwork, the title and sidebar will update, and your changes was be present after restarting the app.
Nothing good to report from my end either unfortunately. Same issues persist. I have a DJ gig coming in less than 2 weeks too so even more disappointed in Apple’s lack of action on this (or at least what feels like a lack).
I guess it’s clear someone like me isn’t their target customer at this point which is fine but I’m just not finding the right alternative to switch to thus far.
I'm still curious if we all have a shared 3rd party app that's causing the problem.
Here's a list of ALL my 3rd party apps. Please share if you have any of these on your own MacBook Pro.
VLC
Handbrake
Speedtest
Adblock Pro
Dropbox
xACT
Transmission
Audio Hijack
The Unarchiver
InVisible
Express VPN
Macs Fan Control (only on my older MacBook Pro, not my new one)
ALSO: Just tried syncing my phone -- playlists on iPhone no longer reflect changes made in playlists on my MacBook Pro. Something is really screwed with iTunes.
Cheers, ChazTwo.
Let me know (through here) if anything changes on your end, and I'll do the same for you. This problem is driving me crazy. This whole thing came out of nowhere.
I don't know about you but everything seems to be back to normal now. Nothing I did...just seems normal now.
Actually scratch even the good news part of my last reply. I restarted iTunes & lost all the tracks that showed as added 👎🏼
I'm d**n sorry to hear that, C2. I don't know what the h*ll is happening with iTunes.
Well hey, look at that: September 9th and the same problems have returned for me.
I wasted a couple more hours yesterday trying to figure out a fix & also got nowhere. Still can’t rename a playlist etc…
Pretty disappointing to say the least.
Since no one else is posting about this glitch, I feel like you and I have to have something in common in our MacBook setup....some app, some memory thing, something very particular.
I haven’t had a chance yet but I do have those instructions saved & hope to try it very soon to see if it works.
I will let you know.
Thanks for sharing this possible solution too!
