    @drewcoffman Slow down, cowboy. Next they'll be using itunes again, and we're not ready for that hell.

  • jbond Box-Fresh Gravitas 😷🇪🇺🍸 (@jbond) reported

    @jeffjarvis I mostly manage to avoid Apple completely. But then they buy and then close down a favourite app/website and I switch to actively hating them. The iPod is dead, I've deleted iTunes. And now this.

  • shackadelic SherryinAL (@shackadelic) reported

    @AppleSupport my 84 y/o mom’s iPhone 7 Pro has been corrupted with the latest software update. The error message is: iPhone disabled connect to iTunes And she has to use emergency mode to dial out and she doesn’t see well. Please advise

    @JannTosh1 @JayBauman1 Well, it was exclusive to iTunes when it debuted on the service completely unannounced.

  • Garretopia Garret Von Schweng (@Garretopia) reported

    @spotify is such a piece of ****. Why does it always ******* around when I'm out of service and trying to play downloaded music. **** was better in the mp3 iTunes days.

  • asbury_jonah Jonah Asbury🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦☮️🕉️⚛️🎮🧙‍♂️ (@asbury_jonah) reported

    @InUAOfficial @AppleTV really? Not a snowballs chance in heck we are ordering this service now...@AppleSupport shame on your company & all those who support you by working for you. Trashing my Mac today, deleting my itunes & blocking all #Apple social media...

  • CardsScorecards Christian British Fiancé Man (@CardsScorecards) reported

    Love waking up at 2:30AM to find my phone stuck on the black screen. I love it when I pull out my fossil of a laptop to restore it, get 90% of the way through a 200MB iTunes update, only for my phone to miraculously see the error of its ways and power back on. No sleep for me.

  • ZntaAntz znta🌸🌷🎀 (@ZntaAntz) reported

    Hi @AppleSupport @iPhoneTeam can you help me to recover my videos in my iphone storage, it was tottally deledeted with any back up in i cloud and itunes. Is there any way to solve my problem?

  • milliondollaava j. 🇫🇷 (@milliondollaava) reported

    Million dollar baby and maybe you’re the problem nowhere to be found on iTunes US after the new year performance. I thought millions of American were watching the program???

  • Lip_Lightsabers Lipstick and Lightsabers (@Lip_Lightsabers) reported

    Looks like iTunes is still giving an error message. Everything looks good on Spotify though! Hopefully ITunes will be back up soon

  • BiekerJosh Josh Bieker (@BiekerJosh) reported

    The only thing that Craig Mazin did was ignore my comments and then never respond to a single post of mine again like the rest of Hollywood does when they are called out for ****. They got backlash for that episode and it's now taken down from their channel on iTunes. Lol

  • Mickeyp1982 Michael Patten (@Mickeyp1982) reported

    @dannyddp82 Where did you see it's only in HD? It's definitely 4k on iTunes. There is a bug with the interface on apple tv where it will show HD in the store menu if it's on a streaming service in HD. I had the same thing with Reservoir dogs but when I purchased it it streamed in 4k.

  • DavidAn48006977 David Andrei (@DavidAn48006977) reported

    @SaundersTech At the restoring backup from iBackupBoot It gives me the error iTunes backup module not found.

  • andrewmcb Andrew McBride (@andrewmcb) reported

    @CiaraOSulliivan UK iTunes yes but it’s obvs a mistake so it’ll be taken down as soon as they realise!

  • kazamatsuri Brad Douglas (@kazamatsuri) reported

    Man, I really can’t figure out iTunes/Music on the Mac. I was trying to solve an unrelated issue and noticed I have a Music folder with no music files and an iTunes folder with all my music. Shouldn’t Music have moved the files out of iTunes into the Music folder?

  • ian_rolf Sir. WellActually (@ian_rolf) reported

    @Trey_La_Suede Mines probably on an external hard drive somewhere. Since itunes shut down I don't "have" music anymore

    @zeexnew Personally, I think that if the problem fixed in Apple store, it will effect on iTunes Store too.

  • camdeion DEION 🧚🏾‍♂️✨ (@camdeion) reported

    @Gog31566801 Meanwhile her album has continued to fall down the HIPHOP charts on iTunes and it’s no where to be found on bb200 after only charting for 14 weeks.

  • PrimeMystical Amigo (@PrimeMystical) reported

    @KisobokaRaymond @AppleMusic Contact apple support. They must be charging you for another app and mistakenly think it’s iTunes. I had the same issue a few days ago only to find some app on my second device was the one responsible for the charge

  • TOYACULT toya (@TOYACULT) reported

    @dms3tv One artist got the whole discography taken down by distributor for "suspicious activity" when they did nothing wrong Luckily, I lived through that dry out by having bought everything on Bandcamp and iTunes(that old nugget PC app tho...) some time earlier.

  • LitRiggins LIT Riggins (@LitRiggins) reported

    @GetScarlet I’ve still got the iTunes problem

  • Dtlares1 Dtlares (@Dtlares1) reported

    @iTunes troubling that my personal bank information was given to Facetune after I cancelled the trial subscription before the due date. More troubling is that after speaking to an iTunes rep, I was told it’s not Apple’s problem since the invoice was from Facetune and Facetune
