Lately, I'm experiencing a "spinning" icon with every update that I intend to make. For instance, I set focus on the line/entry. I click on the search Discogs and the spinning wheel appears. I have the force quit the app. This happens on every entry. What am I doing wrong? ---

Thanks for your message. Just to understand this correctly: 1. You're selecting a file. 2. You click on the _Tag Sources → Discogs_ menu item. 3. The beachball appears and no Discogs search window is shown. 4. Then you need to force-quit the app to be able to use it again. Is this correct? ---

Thanks for the reply, this is interesting. Which macOS version are you using? Can you maybe do a screen recording of the issue using QuickTime Player? I currently have no idea on why this is happening, so every bit of information helps. ---

The problem wasn't MP3Tags. I found the problem when I attempted to provide a screen capture (Snagit). The software was outdated (wasn't 64-bit compatible). I install the newest version and everything seems to work. ---
