    @GabyLafara @Hendy_VandeWoes oh yea, it might be like that sorry.. i bought my iphone in akihabara 7 years ago, created japanese itunes and using it in my country until now, a bit risky tho.. but so far no problem also for another app (which is region locked and annoying 🥲)

  • DaveEckels Dave Hmm (@DaveEckels) reported

    @SnarkkTank The last time "Secret Service Coming To Arrest You For Unpaid Parking Fines, Give Me iTunes Cards" scammer called I tried to convince him my name was Tommy Tootone and my SSN was 867-53-0911 . Didn't work, but I'm saving this idea.

  • 500Indy1911 Bryan (@500Indy1911) reported

    Why is @iTunes acting crazy and blocking my songs?!! Fix the issue! 🎶 I can only act like I play piano and do YouTube videos for so long!

  • BTS_graphs BTS Graphs ⁷ (@BTS_graphs) reported

    I don’t own all 3 devices. I also don’t intend to share any credit card statements to prove that I purchased it on iTunes and elsewhere. It is noteworthy that Week 2 is crucial due to L+R radio impact date. Feel free to unfollow. There will be no more statements on this issue.

  • downandwordy Getting Down & Wordy Podcast (@downandwordy) reported

    @thehardestpath yep. or you can just search it on itunes or spotify. Getting Down & Wordy

    How do you like to get your music? iTunes Store? Another digital store? Apple Music? Spotify? Another streaming service? CDs? Vinyl?

    @GagaArchives You are awesome!! Seems the files can’t be added into the Music app (iTunes). No error, they just don’t show up when added.

    @3YearLetterman And here I thought they were buried in the iTunes terms of service contract

  • ChrisVetter73 Chris Vetter (@ChrisVetter73) reported

    @McGMondays "Shine" sounds terrible and desperately needs to be remastered. When I have put it on a disc or mp3 player over the years, you can hear how quiet and fuzzy it sounds. I love the song, but at least the last time I checked, iTunes hadn't improved it from the original.

  • Sparkle_Moony ᴮᴱMoony⁷🌌 (@Sparkle_Moony) reported

    Also some ppl use separate iTunes and AM accounts so they dont have to face the issue of playing the iTunes file vs streaming on AM. We've encouraged this to increase our streaming power on AM.

  • PresRMofArmy RMArmy 🐨 (@PresRMofArmy) reported

    Is anyone having issues buying #MorebyJhope through ITunes? It just doesn’t let me pay for it. 😩😩😩😩

  • 2021mazda3 Taylor 🍇 (@2021mazda3) reported

    @DonTheCreator_ the first issue was that the itunes festival versions of the songs some were better then the album versions and the aura demo was 250x better them the album version. and there was that messy app and “flyint dress” and garbage artpop film and i was like uhhhh whats happening

    @t3comah Before Spotify, Steve Jobs revolutionized the music industry with his Ipod, Itunes, and selling songs for a dollar. A lot more fair to the musicians than Spotify's terrible pay system

  • gorbert1971 Andrew (@gorbert1971) reported

    @FlyingSaucerHou @ThatAstrosGirl I did all that. Got the TV app, got an Apple ID, tried to log in, and it comes up with an error saying I don't have an iTunes account. I freaking hate Apple.

  • jbschroeter2017 JB Schroeter (@jbschroeter2017) reported

    @zollotech well, I experienced a first major bug in #iOS16Beta2 when I have the low power mode on, it takes a few seconds to actually switch on, then my #iphone13ProMax would shut down, restart, about 3x then an error message says to plug in my device to iTunes 🤔🤔🤔🤷🤷🤷🤷

  • Jimmcnary Gin 🇺🇦 McNarnia (@Jimmcnary) reported

    @sondesix If you're setting up a new iPhone do you still have to plug your phone into broken old kludgy iTunes or does it seamlessly restore everything over the Internet
