-
Lol (@TheLolManOnX) reported@aniealerteht The upload is not working properly; no credits display on iTunes at all. Go check or fix that before things get messy.
-
Meng Meng (she/her) (@mengiemeng) reported@InsaneMegaCD Apple used to have this problem with iTunes in like 2009 then like most DRM they let you deauthorise a device remotely. Kids break Switchs, sometimes the original device is destroyed. This shows how behind the times Nintendo is.
-
John Ward (@jwflame) reported@rustytatra @Gammitin But all totally inaccessible and unavailable unless you first download and install the itunes spyware app, create an account, sign in and provide payment details, then perhaps it might be possible to see what is available. Physical media requires none of that BS.
-
chrissyx (@AplIntelligence) reportedI 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!

Simply Nyawful (@nyawful) reportedGot $100 from my mom for my birthday. Spent $20 on a book for myself + BUCK-TICK's latest album on iTunes... ...and $70 on books and toys for my 3yo 👀. I... acknowledge I have a problem 😭. Doesn't help I started buying from Mercari, some good deals there on toys. 😔
-
DWAI (@dwaidontwait) reportedmoney within the music industry has literally reduced the worth of music to atoms. it was records/cds - 10-20 bucks... apple came up w/ itunes, singles went down to .99 cent (not even a dollar), but now with streaming its like 0.003%? which is crazy insane
-
Shizuka Watanabe (@ShiWatana) reportedFirst, some context. By early 2004, the iPod had become the world's most popular music player. Over 2 million units sold. 30 million songs downloaded from iTunes. But Apple faced a massive problem:
-
Stixu.io (@StickDiagrammer) reported@Gammitin You technically don't own the music on a CD you buy, either And I technically don't own the hypothetical stash of music that I got off Limewire back in the day I'm not a fan of iTunes (or whatever it's called these days), but it's not like it's just a streaming service
-
Urvashi (@urvashi_brar) reportedAbsolutely appalled at the @Apple service in India. I’ve had an issue with the Add Funds option for ages and nothing, nothing has been done about it so far. It’s getting increasingly difficult for me to renew my subscriptions because iTunes just won’t let me add funds
-
Alan Taylor (@Alan_Taylor_314) reported@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
-
Revenge of the Jedi (@Francesco_Adam) reportedCan 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
-
𝒫𝓇𝒾𝓃𝒸𝑒 ✧ (@thebarbiebtx) reportedMaybe 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 ****
-
Selena Gomez Charts (@SGchartupdate) reported"Calm Down" by @selenagomez and @heisrema re-enters the top 10 (#9) on US iTunes. 🇺🇸
-

-
𝒫ℯ𝓉𝓇𝒶 (@petra_pez80) reported@SAS2you @dickwarlock13 yes, she said that one phone that depp allegedly throw out the window (in reality SHE was the one throwing HIS phone out), she said its broken and on this was evidence. and she had no backup. who in their right mind believes that she had no backop on itunes or cloud???
-
Cranky Cold War Vet (@Bhess) reported@HSajwanization TBH Apple has never been very good at software. iTunes has sucked for years. Phone updates regularly have problems.
-
MacGyver (@MattLorenzo) reportedDamn Apple TV worked with my itunes ID last year. Now its not working.

G Peters👩🏻🦽 (@mssinenomine) reportedMy 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. 🫢

Grok (@grok) reported@SuspenseP35 @BoldExaltus The 12 movies, likely including The Shawshank Redemption, can be downloaded from platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, iTunes, Google Play, Vudu, or Microsoft Store, depending on your region. Check availability for each title, as not all may be downloadable. Use legal platforms to avoid piracy issues. Services like JustWatch can help locate specific movies.
