    lol i wasted 4 hours just to update ios on itunes but got error in return lol

  • supasteph30cr Stephanie Parsons 💙 (@supasteph30cr) reported

    @SupportItunes I've recently bought a song on iTunes at the same time as another 10 or so. Despite numerous attempts at reauthorising my laptop it still flashes up that it isn't authorised to play this specific song. The other 10 play no problem?!?! 🤔

    @JKHimpe We have a train service here called Fish n chips. I’ve no idea why. I did receive an unusual call from the US, they needed more details to send me a new phone. Normally I get phone calls saying I’ve done tax fraud and I can avoid being arrested by paying a fine using iTunes card

  • bradfordlad5 John, a modest genius 💙 #FBPE (@bradfordlad5) reported

    @AndyWoodturner My bet is that they all work, all connect to iTunes when powered by USB, with ‘just’ battery power issues.

  • jlgolson Jordan Golson (@jlgolson) reported

    @Tweetermeyer Definitely an issue, but also clear that most people don’t give a **** about panel gaps. And to be fair, why should they? This is the automotive equivalent of complaining about iTunes DRM. Yeah, it would be better without but, does it affect day to day use?

  • Moumita45205512 Moumita (@Moumita45205512) reported

    @Tanjlrokoos sometimes I really get upset about the fact that why BigHIt didn't let this masterpiece release officially, it could have broken many records on Spotify, iTunes & many top charts

  • Grey_IsTrue Grey Crimes but spooky 🏳️‍⚧️ (@Grey_IsTrue) reported

    Introducing the DRM - ensuring that if you buy your music from Apple, it will only play on Apple. The problem? Itunes was the biggest shop in town, but Apple ipods weren't all that reliable, broke easily, and were expensive to replace. But now, you had no choice. ...unless. >

  • iRobinPro iRobinPro (@iRobinPro) reported

    @MkReachme If you have any issue currently it is recommended to install it via itunes bro. I have seen improvements before. Otherwise you can continue with wifi.

  • GiraffePlays Torben 🏳️‍🌈 (@GiraffePlays) reported

    @_HeyThereNat @realjessamica92 Yes, when I worked in cellphones we got a lot of people coming in with this issue. You can do a hard reset on iTunes or a combination of buttons…not sure what they are anymore but sometimes it worked.

  • cbmcgoo c.b. mcgoo (@cbmcgoo) reported

    @abigailm1971 @rfrdrch Tell them you have a cat with issues that needs some expensive vet treatments (mmm treats) and that you would appreciate some iTunes gift cards in $100 denominations.

  • JasonTselentis Jason Tselentis (@JasonTselentis) reported

    @9to5mac @ChanceHMiller TGiOS 15.0.2!! —Fixes "Device restore or update may fail when using Finder or iTunes for iPhone 13 models" O M G …I spent hours (HALF A DAY!) last week on this very problem with no solution whatsoever.

  • littlemix_minaj 𝕽🦄| NM5 era (@littlemix_minaj) reported

    its sad because they could have just not mentioned leigh at all??? Like just go on live and promote your song, be happy you have a song #1 on both uk and us itunes, why try tear down a new mother???

  • chukydyk2 chukydyk (@chukydyk2) reported

    @bummite I don't see this as any lesson than oppression and stealing by tricks from Steve. Why would he go ahead to build into iTunes their sidebar after turning you down. This is practically intimidation of a kind after hearing them pitch

  • DoseOfDena Dena (@DoseOfDena) reported

    @Shawn152 I’ve always known Nicki was trash and I’ve never liked Jesy. I’m glad their trash song is tumbling down the iTunes chart

  • MutedTrampet Mohamed Al-Hajamy💾 (@MutedTrampet) reported

    @FreakyFwoof Same here. I also have even more space than I did before. I'm now using 87 gb out of 64 gb. iTunes is broken as well. Apparently I'm using 16,777,215.97 TB of space, or maybe I have that free, who knows?

  • LeviPlasma Levi Plasma (@LeviPlasma) reported

    @rockstargames_c I've bought music on iTunes before that they've taken down and effectively completely stolen from me. Even had to call them, but they said I have to get in touch with the label or artist. Sucks. Thievery... Pretty much. That kinda thing should be against trading standards.

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @SW0RDIE Okay so the SIM reader in the handset is not working? Is there any chance that there is a software issue with the phone that is causing it to not read the eSim as well? Have you done a full backup and restore using the latest version iTunes? Meg

  • bbl0ckhead HM (@bbl0ckhead) reported

    @PhantomPhily @IGN But the subscription you pay for is for Apple TV+ and that’s the service we’re talking about. Of course iTunes content like is separate but that’s not part of TV+. Everything under the TV+ tab is the service that we’re discussing here.

  • JasonTselentis Jason Tselentis (@JasonTselentis) reported

    @MacRumors @julipuli Failing to restore from PC’s iTunes or macOS was/is a real problem. Wish this fix had released LAST week. Better yet, the RC should’ve addressed restore problems, but I wonder how many people are stress testing iOS releases for restore and rebuild.

  • MissCherieGrant C.Grant (@MissCherieGrant) reported

    Writing today: Open documents. Open itunes. Check on Twitter. Get sucked in. Back sore needs a short walk down the street. Now I'm back, cracks knuckles. What was I doing? Checks email. Nothing. Twitter. Okay write, nope back sore, stretch. Sit down. Now what was I doing? Twitter

  • Aces_Jsin jACEsin (@Aces_Jsin) reported

    @DzaddyGer @bgyo_gajmn @bgyo_ph we made it until 6pm. we’re down now to number 2 as per iTunes app. But i think TL already clinched the record by more or less an hour 🙏

  • skz_usa Stray Kids USA ⚡️ (@skz_usa) reported

    ‘Here Always’ by #SEUNGMIN has broken TOP 50 of iTunes USA!

  • ale_watches_tv_ Ale Watches TV (@ale_watches_tv_) reported

    @TheChallengeMTV why can’t I watch the new episode on @iTunes ? It’s not up and now last week’s episode is down too! HELP

  • DJPDot talong john silver (@DJPDot) reported

    @Serato I’m having an issue with my Serato library associating with the wrong iTunes (I’m still on Mojave) library. I recently installed a new SSD but my Serato is still referencing the iTunes library on the old SSD.

  • pirgovgeorge george (@pirgovgeorge) reported

    Barbz, weve dropped down on the itunes charts lets get back up there!!!

  • ic3b34r ic3b34r (@ic3b34r) reported

    @AppleDry05 =_=! too late... because I need it to fix my restore problem, before 15.0.2, I restore from iTunes, it always error > 90%

  • realENHolloway Ethan N Holloway (@realENHolloway) reported

    just add a disclaimer as you do for "Outdated Cultural Depictions" and basically say "Actor/Actress X is a *****, we are showing you this program because of the work of all the innocent parties" problem solved guys, they still sell them on iTunes anyway

  • gulfiepanda kiraa 🌨 (@gulfiepanda) reported

    @FeeLovesMG @glossytuann You can try use laptop na kha.. install itunes first on your laptop.. then sign in with apple id..then you can purchase it

  • Rusty595 Rusty W 595, BSc 󾓪 (@Rusty595) reported

    look I'm not saying there's a conspiracy to force me to update but as soon as I updated iTunes all the problems I was previously having with it recognising the iPod and ejecting the iPod without hanging went away completely, and that this exact situation has happened twice now
