Abstract:
In macOS 10.15 Catalina, Apple finally did away with iTunes. In its place are three new apps-Music, TV, and Podcasts-with audiobooks now handled by the Books app and syncing of mobile devices handled by the Finder. Where once iTunes was an all-purpose media hub, now you may use up to five apps to accomplish the same things. The new apps also add more features (while, sadly, removing a few things too). Take Control of macOS Media Apps is your guide to this new, post-iTunes world. Kirk McElhearn, whose earlier books on iTunes 10, 11, and 12 collectively sold nearly 14,000 copies, is back with a new book that shows you how to manage your music, videos, podcasts, and audiobooks in Catalina. Whether you just want to play your media, or you want to go deeper with special features like Genius, Shuffle, Up Next, Apple Music, and iTunes Match, this comprehensive guide has the answers you need. Kirk also looks at various ways of bringing audio and video into Apple's media apps, tagging songs and videos so you can find them more easily later, creating playlists, sharing your library over a home network, and syncing media with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod. The book covers how to: Play Music: Learn the basics of playing audio (and even music videos) in the Music app. You'll also find tips on making quick playlists with Genius and Up Next, learn the best ways to search for the music you want to hear, stream music to other devices in your home, and view lyrics while tunes play. Stream Music: Use Apple Music, a paid service, to listen to any of 50 million tracks. Or listen to live broadcasts from Apple Music Radio (including Beats 1). View Your Music and Other Content: Learn how to use the sidebar, view your music library, and work with contextual menus in the Music app. Store Your Music Library in the Cloud: What are the pros and cons of Apple's Cloud Music Library? How do Music and iTunes Match figure out whether to upload your music when setting up your Cloud Music Library? You'll get answers to these questions and more. Use the iTunes Store: iTunes may be gone, but the iTunes Store is still open for business! Find tips on shopping in the iTunes Store, and get advice on sharing your purchases with family members and among your various Apple devices. Tag Your Music: Tags are bits of information (also known as "metadata") that can describe your media. Learn which tags to bother changing, the best ways to add lyrics and album art, how to rate songs with stars, ...
