recover_itunes_ratings

Reads the song ratings from an iTunes library XML file and applies them to your current iTunes library via AppleScript. This may be useful to restore song ratings that were lost due to a bug in iTunes, Apple Music, or iCloud Music Library.

$ gem install recover_itunes_ratings

$ recover_itunes_ratings "iTunes Music Library.xml" [options]

By default, only prints the ratings that will be changed.

-a, --albums                     Reset all user-supplied album ratings
-r, --run                        Run instead of only printing changes
