I don’t think enough people talk about how iTunes Match is only about 95% effective with its matches. I love the service, I’ve paid for it for years. But the Apple nerd community never seemed to acknowledge the fact that it’ll randomly miss 2 songs on a 10 track album.

@RachaelEccles I have bitten my nsils down to the quick since I can remember. I am 53. COVID made me realise putting my fingers in my mouth could kill me. Found you on @iTunes , and voila! No more nail biting! I haven’t bitten since March. Thank you! #nailbiting #Hypnotherapy

@jeweldub @pulte I had to dig out my Win10 laptop with iTunes on it to be able to subscribe, rate, and comment. I couldn't do it from my Android phone, nor my Linux ( Ubuntu ) desktop. I need to try it from my Linux ( Raspian ) SBC desktop, but I expect the same issues. Can you install iTunes?

@evoterra @Podnews @misener Yeah, I found that too, when I tried to do something similar. It’s possible that Castro synced with the iTunes Store API before they locked it down? The RSS feed URL that is associated is legit though, and comes from Apple

We sincerely love to be able to help on iTunes but it can't be done yet, so we are looking at ways we can help. The problem for us is more than anything else also the economic situation. Most can't even buy the boys' album. I'm really thinking about doing this project.

@AppleSupport Nope, you have to set up this crap before you get to set up 2 factor. Still can't login to Apple TV and thinking that ITunes on Windows was your pinicle of software innovation.

@baesickv All in all, if you do the following, you should have no issues since you can see all the photos already synced to iCloud. 1) Backup to iCloud. 2) Restore via iTunes or Finder on Catalina. (Clears the majority of system and other off) 3) Select your iCloud backup to restore.

@peacockTV Will you all have your own app that can be downloaded from the Apple and Android app stores? I pre-ordered (signed up for) the streaming service today. But am confused about how I can actually watch. Looked for an app in the iTunes App Store.

@TRAPTOFFICIAL @egacwerd1 @iTunes Again, even if they did hold numbers- say they held 5,000 sales - that’s still piss poor for a band that used to be in the spotlight. Y’all were on the grind soundtrack. How did you **** this up? You ****** yourself with your bullshit rhetoric and 4-5 terrible albums.

@nightafternight It takes up 100 GB on my computer. I hate Apple... the best guess I’ve heard is that it’s an iTunes problem.

@ZeroArmour It’s not on iTunes Canada. Four places on Amazon Canada list the OST as “Out of Stock”. Actually, I know this series. Got halfway through it when the website where I was watching them closed down.

@marylttlelamb @rmchartsdata @BTS_twt it's Apple music not iTunes. We still have problems to buy on iTunes, we cannot find cards with high limits (it is part of the economic problem of our country) 😓

@EBischoff @HeyHeyItsConrad. Lucha Underground ran 2 seasons on Netflix in North America. It did well til all their legal issues, but there was never any fan fare when it came out it seemed. I watched LU on Itunes and didn't know it was in Netflix until just before they pulled it

@settern As the one-person-who-actually-understands-iTunes-match-and-iCloud-Music-Library, do you know how to resolve the issue of matched m4a files that stop playing part way through the song? Deleting and redownloading appears to download the same corrupt file.

So a few days ago, I downloaded my @GooglePlayMusic Library since it is shutting down. I decided to merge it with my old @iTunes library (bad idea since it was originally based on that library), then sync it with my @AppleMusic Library Now I have a lot of duplicates of music.

@pylonfan I feel like it’s a little like a larger version of ‘the iTunes problem’; trying to compress decades worth of features into more and more new products, sacrificing NO old ones, and trying to bend every new one into the shape of every old one. Ho hum!
