  • jalifax Jakob Henner (@jalifax) reported

    @Heilemann How’s your HomePod these days? I’m only allowed to stream my iTunes Match library, not Apple Music. I know… bigger problems in the world (literally)

  • dammitroxanne Roxanne Carol (@dammitroxanne) reported

    How do I tell my iPhone that I literally never want to listen to that godforsaken U2 album that they shoved down my throat via iTunes?

  • timruhter Tim Ruhter (@timruhter) reported

    Is there a good iOS app for playing my iTunes library? The music app has gotten terrible pushing 🍎music.

  • TBDFEATURES TBD (@TBDFEATURES) reported

    Itunes artwork rules are ****** terrible💯

  • johnsoncgr Christian Johnson (@johnsoncgr) reported

    @Jape_tray it was like itunes before there was itunes and u could share music and stuff but it got shut down bc music piracy was so prevalent

  • DS_Music394 🎹DS Music @ BotW Album OUT NOW!🎶 (@DS_Music394) reported

    Music distributing peeps: Is there a good service you use for Spotify/iTunes presave/preorder campaigns? I tried using Toneden like for my usual smartlinks but I got an error of "this link is disabled unless you get premium" after I spent all the time making it 😕😕😕

  • GuardianArisha Kirvee @ ZOOL and TouHaru brainrot (@GuardianArisha) reported

    @NiGHTDYE_ Maybe? IDK I don't use Apple products ever so I frankly don't know how they work. I know that you can only buy stones on Apple if you buy Japanese iTunes gift cards, but Android doesn't have that problem. Google automatically converts currency and lets you buy directly.

  • publicradionerd Dr. Jami Rogers (@publicradionerd) reported

    WBUR's live feed is doing all kinds of funky dumb **** to me today. Keeps cutting out on my phone and now iTunes on my laptop just skipped down to WBEZ. *** sake. I do not need the interruptions in this moment of national crisis!

  • jacktpowis jack (@jacktpowis) reported

    My heart is broken.💔 I’m in the studio working on something special after today’s assault on democracy. But for now please stream Sorry not Sorry on iTunes!! #sorrynotsorry

  • 808Wyatt Wyatt (@808Wyatt) reported

    Look iTunes it’s my choice if I’m trying to go death. Stay out my business and stop turning down my music.

  • Ioverbf errie (@Ioverbf) reported

    @carv1ngs some itunes when things happen I do take a break as it’s can get really negative which can impact my brain in bad ways but I never try to outright ignore the problem especially one of this caliber it does need to be worried about and you do need to try to help

  • _Bob_S Bob S. (@_Bob_S) reported

    @markgurman Is it true that it will be a subscription service? Charged by the mile or by the day? But onboard iTunes will be free!

  • hoaxcardigan Ge*rge (@hoaxcardigan) reported

    champagne problems (#168) & no body no crime (#200) have re entered the top 200 of itunes UK.

  • KUSANAGlS mari ✧ (@KUSANAGlS) reported

    it didnt work again and im really scared cause my dumb *** decided to update it through itunes even tho i dont have the original apple usb cable which seems to be the problem 😭

  • LetsGoToTheMov7 Caz (@LetsGoToTheMov7) reported

    I hit my 10 year service at work last year and you get £100 worth of vouchers. You bet I asked for iTunes to buy all the films 🙌🏻🥰

  • Francis_NYC Francis (@Francis_NYC) reported

    @HOT97 @JamaalBowmanNY @EBROINTHEAM I heart radio via itunes (computer) , i tried to google streams too n it keeps saying error but i was just listening like at 7AM

  • itsiali Ali ♡ (@itsiali) reported

    @onlytrueamd idc about money i care about quality, itunes is just pure stupid ****** up shitty garbage that i’ll tear my veins if i use again it crashes my pc, freezes if i unplug my headphones, doesn’t download at all.. i tried many versions and many computers yet all have the same issues

  • Liv_Moe Liv Moe (@Liv_Moe) reported from Sacramento, California

    @hollykins @Tess_Townsend I think about this a lot too. What would be great although I have no idea how to make it work, would be to buy into a service that aggregates a whole bunch of stuff for one rate. Apple news & MSN kinda do but they’re limited like iTunes is and I don’t think you can do one article

  • itsrenatak Renata (@itsrenatak) reported

    I will update my computer this morning using my portable internet seen as my modem is not working at the modem and I am going to check various files for updates. I will also download my iTunes album to my iPod and then into my library on computer from my iPod.

  • unavko (@unavko) reported

    @infektdubstep u r in  ecosystem, so ALAC is ur way for iTunes etc. there r some diffs in sampling rate and bit quality which someone can consider as -, but its havin metadata option, its playable by nxs2 & 3000s too, so i think theres no problem for gettin it

  • JaxOmen Jax Omen (@JaxOmen) reported

    @why_sophie_why @bastardspod @IwriteOK i literally can't even play it on the iheartradio website, it says the episode is "not available" when I click play. I normally pull from the itunes feed and that gives a connection error when trying to download

  • 808Wyatt Wyatt (@808Wyatt) reported

    Look iTunes it’s my choice if I’m trying to go deaf. Stay out of my business and stop turning down my music.

  • xthelastbags erik😷 (@xthelastbags) reported

    @unfiltereddad @klambearreport akin to shaming someone for not reading the entirety of the iTunes Terms of Service, tbh this is dumb!!

  • psychaddy Addy (@psychaddy) reported

    @Bob96424540 @scottmelker @CoinbaseWallet Thanks but, this doesn’t explain what to do if entire iPhone got reset due to space issues and was restarted with all data gone including pics and notes and no backup ok itunes or icloud

  • OceanUnicorns owau (@OceanUnicorns) reported

    @iTunes hi , I was charged for an item , I tried to report an issue but it states there’s no receipt on the item even tho I was emailed an invoice ? The app stated it gave a 7 day free trial but I was charged the full amount instantly not after 7 days like it stated ?

  • LMxPhilippines LM PH 🇵🇭 🏳️‍🌈 | BUY SWEET MELODY (@LMxPhilippines) reported

    @jadesfreak1 I did it by opening itunes, then under the Accounts tab > Sign in > Create new Apple ID > use diff email > then just verify the account, add a preferred payment method then ur good to go

  • KearraAyers Cudder👑 (@KearraAyers) reported

    @Apple please sort your iTunes connection issues out between the new iPhone 12 and Mac books not syncing or even picking up the fact a phone is connected. I’ve been dealing with this for 48 hours downloaded every update possible and now I’m crying from stress 🙃

  • EdwinValdezEXD Edwin Valdez (@EdwinValdezEXD) reported

    Reims is whisks a skim form fowl boeuf Amos firms news down both sows long fifths and bust tines good body's you mound iTunes mode

  • LenovoSupport Lenovo Support (@LenovoSupport) reported

    @p999b Hi. Sorry for the trouble. Do you have Chromebook with Linux? Could you send us a DM with the serial number and the error that you're getting while installing itunes? We'd like to look into this further. Auxen_Lenovo

    @TheLeoTerrell @ApplePodcasts @iTunes As an elected official he should first study that the United States is a republic not a democracy maybe he should it down 🙄
