    Skål metal version will be unavailable on Spotify, iTunes etc for a couple of days while we fix a clerical error. The video will still come out today!

  • jarestech Jaroslaw Reszka (@jarestech) reported

    resolve some billing problem with iTunes which shouldn't happen in the first place. Within a couple of years, from the best to the worst. I'm getting rid of all Apple products now. Just before I was considering buying a MacBook. Will not happen now.

  • JeffNGQuotes JohnnyUtah Quote Bot (@JeffNGQuotes) reported

    THERE'S NO PROBLEM WITH ITUNES

  • jpvaldes JP Valdes (@jpvaldes) reported

    @Flipout @p_money Only compatibility issue I've ran into with Ventura is that I have to have Music App open when I boot up serato or my iTunes playlists won't load. Is your OBS running any extra filters or video backgrounds or something like that?

  • vincent00557154 vincent🤠♋️🥘 (@vincent00557154) reported

    For example, if you buy a digital movie or TV show, is that locked into a single service such as iTunes/Vudu/Google Play or does a single purchase give access across multiple services? If you do buy movies/tv do you buy physical media or digital?

    @llcoolj idk what I’m doing… but I did purchase your “ mama said knock you out” from @iTunes I want to use the 1st 2mins of your song as my intro for a @ApplePodcasts that I’m working on. I’m trying to make sure I’m not doing anything that could cause me getting in trouble.

  • chimkoo1358 🪞7̶ ☀️🐾 noa🌙 7̶🪞 (@chimkoo1358) reported

    @jikookxbj I just added it to my Apple Music via iTunes. Spotify is giving me errors . It’s in there but I can’t add it to my playlist

  • miracleofsound Gav (Miracle Of Sound) (@miracleofsound) reported

    Skål metal version will be unavaibale on Spotify, iTunes etc for a couple of days while we fix a clerical error. The video will still come out today!

  • mostsuccessfuI muri (@mostsuccessfuI) reported

    @MilaSkhjn this is not a problem be serious 😭😭 we did it without bts store which you can buy how much you want. dreamers literally only had itunes and others platforms to buy and still did almost 20k in 5 days… just wait for the day jk will have bts store

  • SircarTikku Brown Gordon Ramsay (@SircarTikku) reported from Los Angeles, California

    @17trashman76 @IAMTOMMACDONALD @johnrich I disagree but for the sake of argument: having your music only available on iTunes is a terrible business model and the free market has moved to push them out.

  • mlschop mlschop (@mlschop) reported

    @dagan1973 If you want to really fall down the Bluey rabbit hole (as I have 😈), look up the censorship Disney applied to original releases. There’s an entire episode never released on Disney (but you can buy it on iTunes or Amazon) that I’ve found to be among the series’ best!

  • Acel_dev Acel 𓃵 (@Acel_dev) reported

    The playlists were a mess. Recommendations, terrible A desktop app? No por favor. Use itunes. And that app is the second worst looking music player I've ever used, especially the one they made for Ubuntu The app was just so rigid, the design didn't have a personality.

  • MntyFrsh_DJ MntyFrsh (@MntyFrsh_DJ) reported

    @MicrosoftHelps @PioneerDJglobal Needing help with getting the right drivers for Rekordbox to properly read AAC/M4A files purchased from iTunes on Windows 11, v. 22H2. The volume of tracks keeps fluctuating. This is not an issue on other music file types (mp3, wav, aiff, etc).

  • wildlime Brendan (@wildlime) reported

    @enriquevtee @jerflash Installed iTunes on Windows. Says you have to do it on iOS device. What a stupid service

  • Tips2Bell M.O.E (@Tips2Bell) reported

    @Ekitipikin If you need Netflix login, dstv login,show max login at 2k, and YouTube tv login, Facebook and iTunes kindly Dm me login before payment

  • luciascarlet † lucia scarlet 🩸 (@luciascarlet) reported

    @DirahO3 @dox_gay if you *only* want this cloud sync functionality and don't care about the streaming music catalogue, you can also buy iTunes Match, which is a $24/year service (something like that) and is actually included as part of Apple Music

  • orchidyaoi Vivi | side acc for @eicaliix (@orchidyaoi) reported

    @trashmansam1 it's not opening at all even w the most common ways to open or force restart it,,, and itunes isnt detecting the phone at all so kinda broken af AF.. A factory reset would be fine I JUST DO NOT WANT IT TO BE KNOWNN

  • JustinLeeper_yo Justin Leeper だよ! (@JustinLeeper_yo) reported

    @Copyright2009 I just kinda gotta be really interested in a movie to sit down & watch. Or get a recommendation from someone close. I’ve always played games in my spare time, or more recently watched lots of YT. Heck, I bought Black Panther on iTunes May 2018 & still haven’t watched it yet!

  • WitMike Mike de Wit (@WitMike) reported

    @bomaya @weddingpresent Btw Pain Perdu is labeled "censored" on Spotify. It isn't actually. It has the F word. At the time my download on iTunes had this "issue" too. I'm not offended though....

  • ZacCochran Zachary Cochran (@ZacCochran) reported

    @matthewstone Then right on to Broken Wings and some other band in iTunes.

  • tsukinyagaleo 👑 cybacle 🎶 (@tsukinyagaleo) reported

    @mamori_star I haven’t checked JP iTunes but I saw mutuals talking about it? I’ll have to login to my personal pc during lunch break

  • oilersorganguy TheWordOfTheGord (@oilersorganguy) reported

    @gmbutts @globalnews @globeandmail Those “national security sources” will most likely turn out to be the “Service Canada” people that phone to tell you that you will be arrested unless you buy them iTunes cards

  • ArBroni Broni Abdul-Razak (@ArBroni) reported

    @OleleSalvador Is it that I'm not getting it or what? Mustn't you be using the apple music/iTunes app?? And what's the portion of iOS/Mac users in Ghana?. A youtube one is likely more transparent and honest than some skewed iPhone music streaming service

  • wayneSauke 𝐖𝐚𝐲𝐧𝐞 𝐖𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐤 👑 (@wayneSauke) reported

    @AsianDaBrattt I’m so mad they took down your Sky Falling Track need that back on ITunes asap 🔥🔥

  • TayoFromOhio TayoFromOhio (@TayoFromOhio) reported from Camp Washington, Ohio

    We’re trying to pinpoint a sound quality issue. The original recording is in high res audio, IF AND ONLY IF you bought the iTunes version you can stream rip the OG version to your phone I posted in my previous tweet and double check the sound quality by listening to BOTH.

  • anniejacobscott Anastasia Jacobs-Scott (@anniejacobscott) reported

    I’m halfway through a finished finance report where earlier today there was nothing more than a pile of broken spreadsheets and a list 😭 Look at what the power of Let Loose by @LooseyLaDuca now streaming on iTunes can do!

  • irfan_xc Irfan (@irfan_xc) reported

    Then they again solved it. Then the next day I saw a notifications saying my apple account was disabled in the Apple Store and iTunes. Again contacted Apple support they told it was for security measures they have enabled the account. Within the next hour another issue raised.

  • JinTae613 JinJin ⁷ Face, OTS, Smoke Sprite lockdown (@JinTae613) reported

    @mostsuccessfuI Also need to buy digitals on iTunes, Amazon and website. I have no problem of any BTS members charted higher or get no.1.

    If you are downloading episodes from a service other than PBS or Amazon or iTunes/AppleTV for *any reason*, please also consider making a one-time donation to PBS if you are not a Passport subscriber. We want to honor our cast and crew’s hard work. #Sanditon #SanditonS3
