    @MitchB3 Just got off the phone with support, they said that even iTunes Store support was slammed with people having the same problem. Seems to be a server-side issue, and they said it should get fixed by this afternoon CST.

    @iTunes why is your mobile platform such garbage? Why are there load times on downloaded music? Why can't I connect to the service right now even though I'm on wifi? You guys are terrible at making software.

  • thehindu01 सम्राट राजपूत 🇮🇳 (@thehindu01) reported

    @Gunner_at_large @Apple They reply to restore it by iTunes without taking backup and set up as new iphone. But issue not solved. Now they are asking my address. I think i need to go to apple care center. #wrostapple #apple

  • DannyOboyle Danny (@DannyOboyle) reported

    They’re like sorry ur new iPhone doesn’t work 😭🙈 try connecting it to power or use iTunes to update it.... which doesn’t exist on Mac anymore. I have to reiterate the problem to every support agent that I get switched to, it’s insanity.
