What makes iClip Lyrics so useful is that you can just launch it and let it do its thing in the background while you’re enjoying your music you can even hide iClip Lyrics so you never see it working. Or, if LyricWiki provides lyrics to the wrong song, a quick click on the Delete (x) button clears those lyrics from the track altogether. If the lyrics for a song contain errors, you can make changes right in iClip Lyrics’s window-just edit the text and then click on the Refresh (circular arrow) button to apply the change. While this process isn’t as convenient as the program’s automatic mode, it’s still quite a bit simpler than the alternative: manually performing a Google search, copying the lyrics, switching to iTunes, opening the Info window, switching to the Lyrics tab, pasting the lyrics, and then clicking on OK. Assuming it’s the correct text, a click on the Paste Lyrics button applies it to the current track. If you find your track’s lyrics via the Google search, just select the text and copy it the copied text is automatically pasted into iClip Lyrics’s Clipboard drawer. iClip Lyrics sends a Google request to your browser in the form of “lyrics ” and, at the same time, opens a Clipboard drawer in the iClip Lyrics window. If a track’s lyrics aren’t found on LyricWiki, you can turn to Google by clicking on the Search (magnifying-glass icon) button. Unfortunately, LyricWiki doesn’t have the lyrics to every song. So I was happy to discover iClip Lyrics, as close to a pearLyrics replacement as I’ve seen. Since then, a number of other products have been released that can get song lyrics into iTunes, but few perform the task as seamlessly as pearLyrics. PearLyrics was discontinued due to pressure from the music-publishing industry. It was a popular Gem among Macworld readers sadly, soon after that coverage, Which is too bad, because once you’ve added lyrics, they aren’t confined to iTunes’s Info window you can also view them on your iPod or iPhone.Ĭovered pearLyrics, a utility that watched iTunes and automatically added lyrics to whatever track was playing. It’s not a difficult task, but it’s a hassle to perform more than occasionally-let alone to do it for every track in your iTunes library. Pinch or Swipe on the live view to zoom in or out or pan while inserting.If you’ve never manually added lyrics to a track in iTunes, the process goes like this: You select the track, choose File: Get Info, click on the Lyrics tab in the Info window, type or paste the lyrics into the large text field, and then click on OK.(You need to hold for at least 1 second for it to be inserted.) Touch and hold Hold to Add This Photo to insert the photo as a clip.Tap Retake if you're not happy with it and want a do-over.Tap the big, round Shutter button to take a photo.Tap the Camera Chooser button to switch between front (selfie) and back (elsie) cameras.Tap on the Flash button to cycle the flash between auto (white), on (yellow), and off (struck out).Tap on the Photo tab, left, beneath the live view.Photos are treated almost like static video in Clips, so you don't just choose your shot, you choose how long to hold on your shot as well. If you have headphones with a mic attached, Clips will use that mic regardless. So, if you're shooting something else and you want your voice heard (and/or Live Titled, see below), SPEAK UP. Note: Clips will use the front mic for the front-facing (selfie) camera and the back mic for the back-facing camera. As soon as you're done you can record more video or start working on the video you just shot.
