    @ClassicII_MrMac @littlesteve Nope, but my ******* ex did this to my music collection when she "let iTunes organise" it on my server. Probably about 60% of my music was deleted or dumped in an "unknown" folder with the files all being renamed "unknownXXXX.mp3"

  • Gavceltic67 Gavin Courtney (@Gavceltic67) reported

    @EnzoMaguire Sorry, iTunes charts.....apologies for my error

  • Stone_Sketch StoneSketch (@Stone_Sketch) reported

    @icecube @iamKrayzieBone @iTunes Never had that issue and I have a lot

  • BunnyJugs Jessica, Spooky Edition 🍂🎃 (@BunnyJugs) reported

    I have an iPhone issue can anyone help? Its an iPhone XS max (I think), and its completely dead unless its on charge and then it just keeps rebooting and I can see the Apple logo etc. When I connect to my PC, iTunes doesn't recognise it and it just goes completely dead again

  • Nathanielyields Nugthaniel Yields (@Nathanielyields) reported

    @icecube @iTunes You purchased the right to be able to listen to it during the time it's available contextually speaking, no one's pushing suits at Netflix for losing rights to their shows they just find more ways to experience them. When atla was taken down and put back up I purchased physical

  • andrewmitch34 Ovechkin4life (@andrewmitch34) reported

    @icecube @iTunes I’ve never had this problem but I’ve always had @Apple store set my **** up

  • katfan4eva 🐈Cat Fan Forever 🐈 (@katfan4eva) reported

    @icecube @iTunes 💯. I heard that Snoop was going to start his own music platform. Down with that if he is. We need all the great stuff on that if it happens

  • RJBadman1 RJBadman (@RJBadman1) reported

    Been tempted from #Deezer to #AppleMusic via a free trial & it's the most unintuitive, clunky, confusing mess of a music service I've ever used. Set "loved tracks" up on my phone, but after 30 mins searching and literal headache, I can't find any way to access the list on itunes.

    @sapphicforlwt @LouiesOfIndia Ni yr, my laptop is not working and i have one from work, uspr i cant install the itunes

  • duchesscenciaah Duchess Duduzile Brown (@duchesscenciaah) reported

    @icecube @iTunes Yesss it’s jus ridiculous, I tapped using a iTunes for this reason. I swear by @Spotify coz it has never let me down

  • GraymaneShadow Graymane Shadow (@GraymaneShadow) reported

    So far things have gone well, but the first major snag definitely appeared - the supporting App Store/iTunes Music Store infrastructure is definitely…rotted out. Far as I can tell I can’t load any books with the Books app, can’t redownload music or apps. Maybe it’s a cert issue.

  • danieljohnhall Dan Hall of Ween (@danieljohnhall) reported

    What’s going on with Charlotte’s Web not being on any streaming service, or rentable from iTunes, or on DVD at JB? How is it possible that’s the great lost movie of the 20th century?

  • JustinInMerida Justin Mann (@JustinInMerida) reported

    @icecube @iTunes I paid $10/month for iTunes for years. When I cancelled my service they emptied out my library. Same with my iCloud and photos. How the hell do they delete MY photos on MY phone? Apple are crooks! 😡 As I use my old af 10 I will never give Apple another $

  • Patrick502 Hydrogen (@Patrick502) reported

    @icecube @iTunes Might be a copyright thing. I haven’t had any problems and I’ve noticed albums disappearing.

  • AptaMusic Apta (@AptaMusic) reported

    @odubhda Haha. No, that's not me. An error in the iTunes auto-find algorithm it looks like.

  • Tivolitibur Christopher Place (@Tivolitibur) reported

    @Jdruc00 @icecube @iTunes Every song, ever? No service has that.

  • SATTY094 Sean Buckley (@SATTY094) reported

    @icecube @iTunes Ya should pull ya music off there if they don't fix this i complained to them for so long about this issue to there support and nothing least someone said something that has a following might actually get fixed now thanks bro

  • Ruvrick ꈤꂦ꓄ꂦꋪꀤꂦꀎꌗ 尺.丨.匚 (@Ruvrick) reported

    @britanysh She’s the problem ? She’s the problem for trying to make the industry fair for everyone? She’s the problem but she made 14 women obtain their first #1 on iTunes? She’s the problem but she changed the industry, by counting streams as sales too ?

  • tom55789 tj (@tom55789) reported

    @icecube @iTunes Cube if you bought a music streaming service and put your name on it I’d buy it.

  • cherfan_15 Luke15 (@cherfan_15) reported

    @MrRicione @cher That albums from 2020. It doesn’t say released in 2022 on any of the music apps I have. Not Apple music, Spotify, or iTunes. Just stop man. I’m on a discord server w like 150 Cher fans and we’re all being patient.

  • GraymaneShadow Graymane Shadow (@GraymaneShadow) reported

    Some mixed success grabbing a few things. The stores are definitely having issues recognizing some old purchases - books especially. The good news is that I’ve got old hardware around with legacy app-supporting iTunes installed, so I may be able to sideload stuff.

  • RemaStats REMA STATS🦇 (@RemaStats) reported

    .@heisrema’s “Calm Down” has spent a total of 113 days charting at #1 on iTunes France🇫🇷.

  • BigDickDaddy68 Mike Lowrey (@BigDickDaddy68) reported

    @icecube @iTunes @TIDAL doesn’t have those issues

  • gengk21 Genghis Khan (@gengk21) reported

    @icecube @iTunes First problem is, it's an Apple product 🥳

  • polyIeritae spooks for machines 🕸 (@polyIeritae) reported

    i have spent hours trying to whittle down my itunes. i'm only on the letter R, and i still gotta make a second sweep to really double check that i need certain discographies. dorky admission: i love doing this ****, for some reason. i always find something new!

  • reallykylebaker Kyle Baker (@reallykylebaker) reported

    @215Pownz @icecube @iTunes It’s not Apple (or Google Play, or whatever). It’s whoever owns the digital rights no longer making them available or the streaming service not reaching an agreement to carry the intellectual property.

  • PodPromoAgency Podcast Promotion Agency (@PodPromoAgency) reported

    @StrangeTrekshow If you have Apple Podcasts,this is for you. I'm from Podcast Promotion agency. We will provide huge traffic with organic downloads, reviews & ratings on iTunes store. It’s is paid service. Do you want to take our service?

  • btnh36 HostyleSDLuis-Btnh36M4L (@btnh36) reported

    @iamKrayzieBone @iTunes That's why after purchasing digital music from itunes. I use a lab top so the files are down loaded under iTunes media. The music you purchase can be dragged manually to what ever devices your using whether it's a phone or tablet a hard drive for storage. If your listening...

  • neurojojo Jo M 😷 (@neurojojo) reported

    Sad to me how Apple silently and totally shut down iTunes U last year, leaving the public without a central place to find thousands of pre-recorded audio/video lectures. MIT's OpenCourseWare still exists..(1/6)

  • BaldMove Bald Move (@BaldMove) reported

    @MileHAndrew Yeah, there is something going on with itunes and authenticated feeds. Your best bet is to refresh a few times or resubscribe. It sucks but it seems like it's been a well known issue since late summer. I promise the pod is up there.
