Hi All, I want to write a script which takes every song in a playlist in itunes, and adds to the end of the genre field, the name of that playlist. Can this be done with automator or do I need to do something more complicated?

Playlist Name: House
Call On Me (Eric Prydz) - Genre: Dance
Cafe Del Mar (Out Of Office Remix) - Genre: Dance

becomes:

Call On Me (Eric Prydz) - Genre: Dance House
Cafe Del Mar (Out Of Office Remix) - Genre: Dance House

Not Automator, AppleScript.

You might find an AppleScript already built for that purpose here.

This explains how to install the scripts once you download them.
