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
Music crashes when I try to drag particular, but not all, songs into another playlist since the Sequoia update.
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!
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 just used EtreCheck and got this report - as a major problem. Can anyone tell me what this means?
Kernel panics - This system has experienced kernel panics. This could be a sign of hardware failure.
I have been experiencing this issue since upgrading to Sequoia. I'm now on Sequoia 15.3 and it is still an issue. I've noticed that it affects songs that were not purchased through the iTunes store more often than songs that were. The issue is only observed when trying to rearrange songs in one large, frequently used playlist in my library with a click and drag. I can move purchased music *sometimes* but can not move imported mp3 files at all. It always results in a crash and close. Possibly an indexing issue?
This exact situation is affecting me as well. Music crashes every time I drag a track to another position. I hope an Apple solution can move this narrative forward, sooner than later.
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.
