    i have so much trouble with itunes/AM recently. i cancelled my AM subscription. AM doesn't show my purchases so can't download my albums (to listen to/for edits) but itunes says i have purchased them. the album says to buy it from itunes. i click and it says i've purchased.

    So this is frustrating. Updating the iOS. My iPhone 6s and iPad Air updated via iTunes without trouble, if slowly. My newer iPad 8th Gen would not update via iTunes despite repeated attempts but did update via wifi, also slowly.

    @AppleSupport Thanks, but that i know already…. Downloaden went fine, but installing it we got an error message that it lost Wifi connection. Connecting it to a device with iTunes on windows or a big sur Mac doesn’t even help, because it is prohibited to connect the iPhone to an other device

    @mackenziepricee @AppleSupport I have not found an answer yet. That’s a great point, as I have an iCloud account, and an Apple ID (formerly iTunes account). Perhaps the two (which Apple supports) is causing issues.

    @jokersplaymat3 @rekcut__ huh? that’s itunes. apple music is the same price as spotify and a streaming service just like spotify and the music quality is like 10x better

    @JupSWarrior @somespacedust What happens if iTunes shuts down though? You lose access to downloading them again

    I didn’t buy the Tolkien extended bundle on iTunes despite having the DVD extended collection. Why do you ask. I want to be able to watch it on my Apple devices ok 😭😭 every streaming service I have took it off

    Out of 28 years of living, I have never heard a song call F** the mailman nor F** the fire department;but there’s a whole catalog of songs on Spotify&ITunes about the police. Now, why is that? Why is the police out of all public service profession are the only one with a bad rep?

    @Maatspencer iTunes can have a word. Outlook has a freaking novel of issues.

    @KentRoseNotes1 I went down a rabbit hole of that era several years ago to discover folks like Johnny Darrell, Tony Booth, and a guy whose name completely escapes me but whom I really liked...Google isn't helping...ah- Bobby Austin. (Had to search my iTunes folder.)

    @alexalbisu Haha, it's been awhile since I used iTunes but I remember having that problem with my library. Sort of why I moved to stuff like Spotify where I could just pick an artist and they could auto craft a station around that.

  • JosephMiller123

    Recently I've realised how redundant Itunes is as a software. Having a completely open-source music player means you can just play anything, even down to the master recordings

    @BerryTeaSara It broke the iTunes record a few months after it released, no radio, 64 on bb100, fell immediately after, MVs didn't do well. It didn't matter if it wasn't the title track because that was the entire problem, a pre release is supposed to be treated like a title track.

  • zaphodgjd

    Just checking, but iTunes Connect is still broken for everyone else right? I can’t log into my account on Chrome or Safari. Does nothing when I hit the Apps button.

    @audible_com @chipgaines The typo in this post demonstrates Audible's lack of attention to detail - like with their connection to iTunes. I've been unable to import a title from the Audible app to iTunes. Over an hour on the phone with support did not resolve the issue. Audible isn't worth it.

    Don't mind if I say OTA is more about pasting and iTunes thorough. Yet there is no problem for us to update using one of the methods.

    @SpeakersXIV your iTunes episodes seem to be giving me errors (the latest 2 will not download). Just wanted to ping you all in case it’s a larger issue than something on my end!

    iTunes Connect not working in Chrome. Coincidence?

    @jacobian I can’t recall any issues with it in forever. But I’m also not doing any intense syncing operations. Mostly it’s holding: 1) backups of iOS devices 2) Picts 3) rando files Music is in iTunes. Collab docs are in GDrive. Code on GH

    @alexhern My biggest issue is iTunes. It’s horrific. I tried using the web app on Windows but it continually logged me out. I hope to god they improve their non-Apple system apps.

    @navierlazlo it’s kind of like comparing a service like buying movies on amazon vs streaming via netflix and hbo max or buying music on itunes vs streaming via spotify.. there’s been a clear winner both times

  • jamie___rees

    looking through my streaming service coins.... i get SO much more money from an itunes purchase than i do from a stream. like an extortionate amount more. it's still p much nothing but still!

    @ryantimpe @dccc_phd I loved that, too, and MyTunes Redux on random college or coffee shop wifi. Did iTunes just blast a local media server? How did that work, technically?!

    @SamT_mcfc The service itself is okay. But Android app was horrific. Used it for a good couple of years. And never using that iTunes garbage again. It's like they make that **** as a test of how loyal Apple fanboys willing to be
