Jackie (Weatheronthe8s) (@Weatheronthe8s) reported@NekoMichiUBC I always install the iOS or iPadOS beta on the day of release just for fun. However, I don't recommend it for anybody's main device, or for anybody who can't troubleshoot tech issues. I once had to restore an iPad through iTunes due to a charging issue in a beta...

Stixu.io (@StickDiagrammer) reported@Gammitin You technically don't own the music on a CD you buy, either And I technically don't own the hypothetical stash of music that I got off Limewire back in the day I'm not a fan of iTunes (or whatever it's called these days), but it's not like it's just a streaming service

𝘼𝙢𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙖𝞰 𝙈𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙖 𝞑𝙚𝙖𝙧 (@AmerMommaBear) reported@WonderWomaNinja My hubby has access to everything and vise versa. We use one iTunes account because he has issues with passwords so we get most of each other’s texts & calls. My accounts are used for recovery of his accounts. After 30 yrs if I had something to hide, I shouldn’t be married.

Seth Lukas Hynes ✍️📕🧬🪐✨🤖👽🧠💻💉💉💉 (@SethHynes) reported@Miyakoottv Since the first-generation Apple TV cannot log into the iTunes servers as of 2018, it's completely useless today unless you hack an alternative OS onto it. Running Leopard, the Apple TV is a surprisingly stable and capable cut-down Mac.
-
Lazerverse Multimedia-Cinemaworks (@lazerverse) reportedI seriously don't know what the problem is with playing from iTunes Home Sharing onto my Apple TV units. One is a 4K, and the other is the basic model which lacks USB and Ethernet. I've done every possible thing to get it working, and it ceases to work. On Windows 11. Time to go Mac only and see if it works.

chandrashekhar (@cathavale) reported@utsavtechie To do any operation with iCloud, istorage,itunes is extremely complicated. With iphone it becomes even more clumsy. Even first sign in itself is tough for a first timer. This also is one of the reasons for ordinary people to not use it.
