Hi! What’s not quite right with Roon? · None of the above quite fits
None of the above quite fits · None of these quite match
Tell us what's going on · On trying to apply my own Star Rating to any album Roon closes I am using Mac OS Tahoe 26.4 on a M2 Max Mac Studio this has only recently started happening.
Tell us about your home network · I only use a Desktop Headphone system
Hey @David_Hammond ,
Thanks for writing in! If you could, please bring your Roon Server online and we’ll take a closer look at a fresh diagnostic report for additional information.
Thank you!
Correction it only happens on Albums that I haven’t already applied my own Star Rating to.

Hello @David_Hammond ,
Thanks for waiting for a reply.
We’ve checked the diagnostics report and it was visible to us that the problem is very likely caused by a UI drawing issue.
Could we please ask you to go to the “Appearance” settings on your Mac and set the theme to default values, like this:
Please, let us know if that solves the problem.
Thanks.
Exactly the same with Appearance Dark, Liquid Glass Clear and Theme Multicolor.

Hey @David_Hammond ,
Thanks for giving that a try! Let’s see if refreshing your instance of Roon remote may help:
Exit out of Roon
Navigate to your Roon Database Location
Find the folder that says “Roon”
Rename the “Roon” folder to “Roon_old”
Reinstall the Roon App from our Downloads Page to generate a new Roon folder
Verify if the issue persists on a fresh install
Thank you!

@David_Hammond ,
We are sorry to see that the earlier step did not help. Please also try redownloading Roon from
Download Roon for Mac, Windows, iPhone, iPad & Android. Get desktop software, mobile remote apps, and Roon ARC for music on the go. Free download.
, then drag the Roon app to the Applications folder and replace the existing copy. After that, please clear the ~/Library/Roon/Cache/ folder.
Please let us know if that helps.

Thanks.
Yes I am using a Customised Themes because I do not like Roon’s default Dark or Light Themes and have been doing so for several years.
Your suggestion as follows:
