    Again, @Sonos ??? 90 minutes on chat/phone with support staff to try (unsuccessfully) to re-establish connection to my iTunes Library. Same bullshit a lot of us went through in early 2024. And after a lot of lip service from leadership about being better. Nope ... not better ...

    So far, Apple Music/iTunes is still bloatware with a terrible interface and broken functionality. Sad. #WWDC25

    @TrveCvltPop Awww that U2 album got loaded onto everyone's ITunes & the latest iPhone at the time, brings back memories of that episode of broken records of that album, talking about how that the whole thing devalued music even the same thing was said when Radiohead released In Rainbows

    @AppleMusic @Sonos Tracks that have been uploaded using the iTunes Match service display the error but other songs won’t play either despite everything being fine before. I can get around this playing via Airplay or deleting from my library and re-adding from Apple Music.

    @1000kilobytes I'm starting to believe it's futile, I've been opening radar issues since 2015 about iTunes (now Music) library management, and the bugs are still there 10 years later

    @grantdfindlay @ljin18 The issue is price. CDs no matter the quality are $10. iTunes tracks are $1. NFTs have an insane range and that range is always changing so anyone can see the possibility of buying low and selling high.

    @chanelbarbie0 Spotify was down for a while and ITunes was frozen. Even Apple Music was moving slow! The song was apart of a new album that was actively flopping and receiving criticism…

    Damn @Snapchat if it's not broken don't fix it. No one wants an AI bot forced on them like a @U2 album on iTunes

    @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

    @ClassicCNFan @NaruMembrane When iTunes adds complete series to their service, that usually means a complete series DVD box set's coming soon.

    @ronnieplonk I read! I have a couple of songs by the Leaves on my iTunes (yes, I'm that Boomer! 😝) but I need to down load more based on that thread.

    Dear @Apple , This has been the most frustrating hour EVER. I am trying to make an account so I can login in to the iTunes store and buy a song. - undefined error at first screen - locked - verify codes not arriving - "can't send code to this phone" - does not work in Firefox

    Anyone knows if the issues with iTunes (the song was listed as an album instead of a single which is why is not appearing on any charts and people can't find it) have been fixed? #TypeDangerous @MariahAlerts @MariahCarey

    @EricVldw @Munky_Berto I'm on like my 10th new Mac since iTunes was rolled out and I've never had a problem sending my tunes to a new machine. It's in the 'Music' folder under 'iTunes' You can drag them all straight to a external hard drive.

    False. Music “purchased” through iTunes, you’re not buying the music itself, you’re buying a license to use the music. While it has the illusion of ownership, you don’t actually own it, ie you need to sign in and authorize your computer for the music files to work, you are limited to burning the songs to disc 7 times total, songs not downloaded or backed up can disappear if the content right holders pull their license with Apple, not allowed to sell or trade or anything beyond personal use with the music, etc.

    I ran into several issues updating to iOS 26 - Windows users CANNOT update to iOS 26 yet iTunes & Apple Devices app say that you must update your app in order to upgrade to iOS 26 3uTools runs into the issue saying there's some http error with systemtime, Older macOS devices too, and unUpdated iPhones too, say that it requires an update to download iOS 26, but 3uTools on Mac works. While writing this, I flashed my phone!

    Why are we pushing let me calm down when Banned From NO (Clean version) haven’t reached number 1 on iTunes as of yet?

    @iTunes Please look into .@MariahCarey's "Type Dangerous" single, despite its dominance on every platform some fans are having problem purchasing the single and it has not appeared on any iTunes Chart despite selling a great amount with 4 hours of its release (VERY UNCOMMON)!

    That song that we had trouble taking the #1 place of on U.S. iTunes is all over my tiktok FYP

  • nIcgrmes
    c (@nIcgrmes) reported

    i’m not confusing anything! okay so for example, the banned from no remix, because that’s been causing discourse within the fanbase. sure, it went #1 on itunes due to the barbz’s support, but it tanked in streaming bc the gp didn’t know/care about it to listen to it. this is where the problem lies. we all know barbz are gonna defend nicki down. but who’s gonna carry the success of her music? bfn remix didn’t even have enough points to have her credited on the song. what’s gonna happen when she drops nm6 and it tanks bc only a handful of people are buying it on mf itunes?

    @SphynxterRisen2 I have a plex server but I like getting 4K HDR and sometimes even 3D movies (for Vision Pro) so I usually just buy movies dirt cheap on sale. My iTunes library has been running since the iPod days and I have hundreds of movies
