I have over 33'000 songs in my iTunes library but beatunes doesn't get any information from last.fm for moods.
I have done a complete analysis the last 2.5 days - it didn't get the infos. But now also with clearly popular songs, any analysis try for single songs didn't get me a result... This was one of the major features why I bought beatunes... Any suggestions?

   Sometimes the LastFM API is simply offline.
   What is the exact error message beaTunes gives in the Task Queue panel?

   Can you give an example of a failed songs (complete with album, artist, title and album artist)?

   Thanks,

   i.e.:
   Artist / Album Artist: Lady Antebellum
   Album: Need you now
   Title: Our kind of love
   --> No error message, but no info

   Artist / Album Artist: Aerosmith
   Album: Music from another Dimension
   Title: Another last goodbye
   --> No error message, bot no info

   Hm... Odd, usually there should be at least a message in the Task Queue panel, saying that beaTunes was unable to find tags (and as a consequence moods). Note that those messages don't pop up as dialogs, because that wouldn't make sense when analyzing many songs.

   Can you please upload your logs? Should be possible via the Help menu.

   Thanks!

   Hey Jörg,

   I didn't receive your logs yet, but believe that LastFM has changed their API recently.

   Can you please try out the current EA release: http://blog.beatunes.com/2015/08/beatunes-45-ea4.html

   It contains a change that adjusts beaTunes to the external changes.

   Does it fix the issue?

   Thanks,

   Also, Last.fm is currently relaunching their site, leading to outages:

   Hi Hendrik

   I'll try that soon... - I'm on business travel and don't have access to my
   privat mac ;-)
   Stay tuned, probably on Saturday or Sunday I'll have time to try also the
   new EA release.

   Many regards,
   Jörg

   Until then, hopefully the final 4.5 is out!
