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.

Himanshu Dhrangad🇮🇳 (@dhrangad) reported@AbhishekMarkets I would say that most people use iPhone because it is easy to upgrade. In android there is no full backup option like itunes that backs up passwords, notes and logins also. If you think you know some free apps that backup whole android (u can exclude login) let me know

Urvashi (@urvashi_brar) reportedAbsolutely appalled at the @Apple service in India. I’ve had an issue with the Add Funds option for ages and nothing, nothing has been done about it so far. It’s getting increasingly difficult for me to renew my subscriptions because iTunes just won’t let me add funds

Elena⁷ • military wife • 아포방포 (@namgistory) reported@N11nyNancy @brk_mira How do we suck at multitasking when we kept 3 jm songs on spotify global at the same time for a month and they are still doing well?
