    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.

    @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)!

    @phamzforfree Yes, I recently changed the battery. I had to restore the phone with another tool because I was getting error 53 with iTunes.

    I have an iPhone 13 Pro and it's been having trouble connecting to iTunes. It connects to my computer just fine, but iTunes refuses to work.

    @Dishasatra Solution is to create a virtual location in some other drive where you have space and provide that location to iTunes. I recently faced the same problem.

    @icecube Use FindMy to issue the command to wipe it remotely in case it goes online. Most likely a baggage handler took it- they'll connect it to iTunes, erase it, and reinstall iOS. Highly unlikely you're getting it back.

    My speaker jack is doing that thing where it opens up iTunes without you asking it to and yesterday it did it while I was giving a presentation. I'm fast now tho so shut it down while it was still in the first bell of Hell's Bells. 🫢

    Oh my gosh, #AppleMusic is so trash. I'm on a free trail, and the **** barely works. I mean, I guess you need to use it on an Apple product 'cause I can't log into itunes on my PC, it won't log into my Roku. Anyone else have issues with Apple Music?

    @jisoofalafel im not... a fan messaged sorn about the issue and only then it was put on itunes even surpassing whatever bts song was trending at the time... their power was too much for cube to handle and ill never forgive for how they mistreated my girls

    @Mangalawyer Don't expect Microsoft to do better on PC. Oh, wait—they are never better at all. Even I can not be sure if it is Microsoft or Apple's problem with iTunes being unable to code CD songs into iPhones.

    @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…

    Can we make it easier to get custom ringtones and alert tones? I have no problem purchasing them, but the current State of the iTunes Store is pretty bad. @iTunes @Apple @AppleSupport

    Come on @AppleMusic we are in 2023 ! One does not ask customers to install an anoying app to unsubscribe to a cloud service. I can't AND don't wanna install ITunes on all my devices ! Have a good day though.

    Maybe the Barbz should make our own streaming service/chart system. All we need is people relying and using it like Billboard and ITunes Charts, right? What makes Billboard official and not sound cloud charting unofficial? Artist? Money? Business? Nicki alone can launch this ****

    @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

    @VeritasKnight i could list up a quick "introductory best-of" half-dozen, just to find out if it'd be your style or not. i mean there are a few terrible episodes, and bad luck could pick a stinker... i *think* it's available on any of Amazon, iTunes, Roku, and Tubi

    Question: Has anyone else experience this issue with their iPod 2nd gen? I had GreenPoisi0n install a new firmware on my device, and now it won't connect to the iTunes store or any other applications. It says "ipod 2nd gen not connected to the network" and "error 1234". Help!

    when I was ten I bought monster by lady gaga on itunes and it was the explicit version and I instantly got so scared that i’d get in trouble I told my parents on myself and my step dad tried to get apple to refund and undownload it from my ipod

    @NekoMichiUBC I always install the iOS or iPadOS beta on the day of release just for fun. However, I don't recommend it for anybody's main device, or for anybody who can't troubleshoot tech issues. I once had to restore an iPad through iTunes due to a charging issue in a beta...
