With this fully-explained guide, you can know how to use all the wonderful features of TuneKeep Audio Converter on Mac.
Something you may need to know about V8.6.2 or later
From September 2022, we adopted the new way (built-in web player) to convert Apple Music songs. Compared to the old way, there are several benefits you can enjoy as below.
- This can avoid compatibility or crashing problems caused by iTunes/Music app version update or iTunes/Music app problems.
- This can avoid audio recording driver problem caused by antivirus application or system update.
- The conversion speed is now 20x faster. When using old way on macOS High Sierra (10.13) or above, conversion speed is limited to 1X because of macOS system limitation.
Notes 1: The built-in web player is a broswer based on Google Chrome like many other browsers, however, you can only access to your own Apple Music library with the browser. And we will NEVER collect your personal information and it's also impossible for us to do that.
Note 2: You can still keep using the old way to convert songs. However, no further update of the old way will be provided. It may not work some day because of a certain iTunes/Music app version update.
Notes 3: Your registration status won't be changed. You don't need to register again after installing the new version.
