Are you a music lover who uses macOS 14.1.2? If so, you may want to know how to set a specific folder in the Music app and view the song list in a detailed format. In this article, we will guide you through the process step by step.
Step 1: Organizing Your Music Files
Before we begin, it's important to have your music files organized in a specific folder on your Mac. This will make it easier to set the folder in the Music app later on. Create a folder on your desktop or in any other location where you prefer to store your music files.
Step 2: Launching the Music App
Once your music files are organized, it's time to launch the Music app on your macOS 14.1.2. You can find the Music app in your Applications folder or by using the Spotlight search feature.
Step 3: Accessing Preferences
In the Music app, click on the "Music" menu in the top-left corner of your screen. From the drop-down menu, select "Preferences."
Step 4: Setting the Music Library Location
In the Preferences window, click on the "Files" tab. Here, you'll find an option labeled "Music Media folder location." Click on the "Change" button next to it.
A new window will appear, allowing you to choose the folder where your music files are stored. Navigate to the specific folder you created in Step 1 and select it. Then, click on the "Choose" button to set the folder as your music library location.
Step 5: Viewing the Song List in Detail Format
Now that you have set the specific folder as your music library location, you can view the song list in a detailed format. In the Music app, click on the "Songs" tab located in the sidebar on the left-hand side of the window.
By default, the song list is displayed in a grid format with album artwork. To switch to the detailed format, go to the menu bar at the top of your screen and click on "View." From the drop-down menu, select "View As" and then choose "Songs."
The song list will now be displayed in a detailed format, showing the song name, artist, album, and other relevant information.
Setting a specific folder in the Music app and viewing the song list in a detailed format on macOS 14.1.2 is a simple process. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can easily organize your music files and enjoy a more detailed view of your song list.
