  • SkylerB97 Wakandantechsupport (@SkylerB97) reported from Bridge City, Texas

    Re download my ITunes library after having to get rid of it cause my old phone only had 16 GB’s. Running through “Black Messiah” for the first time in maybe 2 years. It holds up although a lot of people were ‘meh’ on it once the hype died down

  • BabbleoftheExes Babble of the Exes - Podcast (@BabbleoftheExes) reported from Manhattan, New York

    She hath broken her silence. Buy #StupidLove on iTunes.

  • jacobcohen3 Jacob Cohen (@jacobcohen3) reported from Kings Point, Florida

    @PFTCommenter @AB84 @iTunes This is terrible😂😂😂

  • sjorge Jorge Schrauwen (@sjorge) reported from Kapellen, Flanders

    @starstryder Let’s hope it’s an iTunes+me problem then, it was not fun marking all the old ones as player.

  • foreverflex777 flexo kobain *👩🏾‍🚀🪐🎒 (@foreverflex777) reported from Camden Town, England

  • kungfulasers Bran Eveland Cron (@kungfulasers) reported from Indianapolis, Indiana

    I bought 'The Problem with Apu' on iTunes, and then hosted a bunch of viewings of it. If you're local to me (Central Illinois), I'm down to do it again.

  • wesderby Wes Derby (@wesderby) reported from Cedar Rapids, Iowa

    @MeganAGolden No problem at all. Actually, “faster“ made my year in review country show. That will be posted to Mixcloud and iTunes sometime over the weekend.

  • marty_inge Marty Inge (@marty_inge) reported from Midland, Texas

    Apperently the Itunes link takes you to Apple music, soo uhhh yeah go to your Itunes store and buy that shit you DO NOT want to be driving, lose service and not be able to listen to my song. What a terrible thought.

  • jhamby Jake Hamby (@jhamby) reported from Los Angeles, California

    And the beauty is that it’s essentially a gift card, not a full-service debit card, because customers can’t ever cash it out except by buying things from Starbucks. So that money is gone forever. Steve Jobs did the same with the iTunes Store, Microsoft has Xbox Live gift cards.

  • film_girl Christina Warren (@film_girl) reported from Seattle, Washington

    Also, you couldn’t even stream 4K from iTunes on Mac until Catalina. And now only on a subset of devices. And as I said, Netflix on Windows is blocked from 4K b/c of some driver/device issue. It’s honestly insulting.

    @annie_jiminie @AureliaOT7 @BTS_twt Hello, I was looking for the way to buy on iTunes Venezuela, it cannot be done with Paypal, only with credit cards. It is quite difficult because of the economic problems we have, but several people are doing our best 🥺

  • Dwinn10055 Dolores Winn (@Dwinn10055) reported from Manhattan, New York

    @DoloresOfCourse The problem IS that you have to find a “ machine “ with the cookies to see them !!! You have to download a special app etc, etc. ... I wanted to watch it on my TV. But couldn’t! Had to download an app blah blah blah! They used to just have it on iTunes, itcwas very simple!

  • nanekkii Nancy Esparza (@nanekkii) reported from Oak Park, Illinois

    @ww_us @mindygrossman It’s disappointing & frustrating after reaching goal via Digial, trying to go into maintenance, trying to get OFF paying thru ITunes, told by 3 diff people that it won’t be a problem to keep my history, and upgrade my plan to be told that ALL my history is..

  • AlexConstantin Alex Constantin (@AlexConstantin) reported from Queens, New York

    @AppleSupport I own all 10 seasons of Friends on iTunes but for some reason I’m unable to play S1 E5 on an Apple TV 4th Generation. Tried several times and keep getting the error: There’s a problem loading this content. Please help!

  • MartijnKoldijk1 Martijn Koldijk (@MartijnKoldijk1) reported from Fort St. John, British Columbia

    @CanRevAgency I paid my tax debt in itunes cards ... what a service

  • haysey84 Jason Haysey (@haysey84) reported from Islington, England

    I've not been on the apple train since... 2007 I think, when iTunes was slowing down my pc. I'm pretty happy I moved away 👍

  • thupka1982 T-Hup - Super Bowl Fever! (@thupka1982) reported from Leduc, Alberta

    @mikeFAIL @DKingBH This piqued my interest, gents. I'm surprised how few "radio play" singles there are on a couple of the albums here, and now I'm tempted to go down the rabbit hole and download a few of these. I'm appreciating this thread. (Yeah, I'm still using iTunes and a 160GB iPod classic.)

  • MessyPhakela Ntsiki Lephela (@MessyPhakela) reported from Johannesburg, Gauteng

    I don't see a problem here. iTunes is important.

  • Toobydoo Tobias Vemmenby 🥩 🏁 (@Toobydoo) reported from Hässleholms Kommun, Skåne län

    The “Can’t login to iTunes Store” messages from my old Apple TV are getting on my nerves…

  • RebeccaMIRELES9 Rebecca MIRELES (@RebeccaMIRELES9) reported from Dallas, Texas

    @RepAndyBiggsAZ Well we have an iTunes Amazon problem w/pushers on the web so yeah kinda like ohhguess what well push suit so we can make bank with books till oh yeah it gets noticed yet again @TomFitton wasn't about actually a cure but the cause election&publicity doctrizing cures malpractice

  • maxleibman Max Leibman (@maxleibman) reported from Roeland Park, Kansas

    @chriswaterguy Thinking about Audible’s pedigree, they date (as a digital audiobook service, at least) to the same era as iTunes, which initially allowed you to download purchased songs, but only DRM-protected, and playable only in iTunes and iPod. It could just be a holdover from those days.

  • hoodyx 🐺HOODY🐺 (@hoodyx) reported from San Diego, California

    Record live set in Serato. Open in Ableton fix any issues + add drops. Save as .wav Open in iTunes. Convert to AAC. Open in Serato to make sure everything is straight. Upload to mixcloud. This seems like a lot of steps.

  • LilithLovesBTS 🖤ℓιℓιтн⁷🇻🇪 🦢ᴮˡᵃᶜᵏ ˢʷᵃⁿ•♫♪♩·. (@LilithLovesBTS) reported from Valencia, Estado Carabobo

    @NayelaS_BTS @lucy8282 @ferdunno @btstwicetxt @shadow_twts @BTS_twt We have tried since last night to buy the song, many ARMY have wanted to help us but the problem is that iTunes Venezuela does not accept Paypal, only accepts credit cards from here and that is the problem.

  • Serufusa Serufusa Sekidde (@Serufusa) reported from Islington, England

    Thanks for flagging .@Sherisesstill that my songs not available in Kenya via YouTube. Working with team to correct that & will keep my Kenya fans posted. In meantime, try VPN 4 YouTube or try on @iTunes @Spotify etc. cc .@edwin_macharia Other countries should have no problem.

  • adityamandlik1 Aditya Mandlik (@adityamandlik1) reported from Mumbai Suburban, State of Mahārāshtra

    @AppleSupport Please help!!! My iPhone 6s is showing 'connect to iTunes symbol' screen. I tried connecting with iTunes to restore/update,I am getting error 9/3194. Request for Help!!! @Apple

  • KindyDreaming Ashley 💜💫 (@KindyDreaming) reported from Edogawa Ku, Tokyo Prefecture

    Found the issue, partly the fact that iTunes settings didn’t transfer over to the new phone, partly my external drive wouldn’t wake up.

  • Cowboy_2526 Simon Jackson (@Cowboy_2526) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    @AppleSupport @iTunes won’t allow me to download anything from @AppleMusic says error downloading every time

  • danallen46 Dan Allen (@danallen46) reported from Idaho Falls, Idaho

    Good morning from 12°F in Idaho Falls. Nice $4 breakfast at McDonald's. Catalina largely working pretty well. I don't like the 3 apps that replaced iTunes. The Music app has a lot of UI issues that iTunes did not have. I want my media outside of the Apple ecosystem.

  • ZackAttack2995 Zack Skywalker (@ZackAttack2995) reported from Gainesville, Virginia

    Listening to the new Bad Omens Re-issue of Finding God Before God Finds me on Spotify because apparently iTunes hasn’t downloaded it to my phone yet.
