Resolved Deleted Music Playlists

Hello, using BETA 3.4 and i just realised that some old deleted playlists from apple music are still showing inside Traktor.
These playlists are showed up with no tracks just as playlists.
This is not happening when i create a new one and delete it.
When i refresh the playlists these specific ones are stuck there.


Edit: I exported apple music library inside traktor used that xml as legacy xml library and these playlists disappeared. But if untick the legacy use they reappear . Thank you.

 

Vamal Thank you for your report. Can you send us some screenshots of your structure in the Music app and then in Traktor Music Lib(without using XML).
?

Thank you.

Best

Hi,

the subject says it all.
Starting and then closing Traktor is working fine.
Playing an hour with S4 MK3 is working smooth until quit.

Traktor freezes. Only option is force quit.

Cheers, Chris

 

Hi Chris! Are you already on BigSur beta?

 

I’m having the same issue with old deleted Apple Music playlists still showing up in v3.4, not using legacy xml.

The problem playlists in Traktor Pro are Absolute Bangers, Absolute Bangers (2) and Absolute Bangers (3).

I’m running OS Catalina 10.15.7 on a 2019 MacBook Pro

 

I did a lot of digging on this problem because it happened to me, and I figured that when I installed Catlina, a bunch of playlists that I had in iTunes were copied over to the TV and Podcasts app. Deleting them out of the TV app was straightforward. The only way I could figure out how to delete them out of the Podcast app was to zap all the files in /Users/[username]/Library/Containers/com.apple.podcasts/Data/Documents.

That fixed the problem for me and it was a huge relief because it was driving me crazy. They were showing up in any app that leverages the iTunes API.

 

OMG you are a boss! Thank you so much. Problem Solved!

 

The iTunes API should be enhanced to show which app the playlist belongs to. I wrote a quick Swift playground to examine all the attributes on the playlist object and there was no way to differentiate between them. (I am pretty sure I submitted the enhancement request using my Apple dev account.)
