  • MariahCharted Mariah Carey iTunes Chart (@MariahCharted) reported

    @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)!

  • MCareysWorld Mariah Carey's World (@MCareysWorld) reported

    While we wait for @MariahCarey and her team to fix the iTunes issue (listed as an album instead of a single which is why is not appearing on any charts and people can't find it) #TypeDangerous, be sure you grab your copy of the single on Amazon! @MariahAlerts

    $SPOT Think back to when Spotify was just that small music app fighting against iTunes and trying to make streaming a thing. Fast forward to now, and they've built this massive platform with close to 700 million users. The wild part? All those risky moves they made with podcasts, AI, and ads are actually working out. They're not content being just a music service anymore. Spotify wants to dominate everything you listen to, and they're making it happen. Their latest move with AI-powered advertising is pretty smart—small businesses can now create their own ads without breaking the bank. That means more revenue coming in beyond what we pay for Premium. What strikes me most is how devoted their users are. While $AAPL and $AMZN treat music like just another feature in their massive ecosystems, Spotify really nails the personal touch. Their recommendations feel like they're reading your mind, and they actually support creators in meaningful ways. That's why people stick around, especially the younger crowd that discovered music through the app. The tech giants are still trying to muscle in, and ad revenue isn't always predictable, but Spotify's position is way stronger—debt-free with solid cash flow.

    @aniealerteht The upload is not working properly; no credits display on iTunes at all. Go check or fix that before things get messy.

  • DefGrady Grey-Dee! (@DefGrady) reported

    There was a joke a LONGG while back on windo about a radio station, but i genuinely kinda want to see about making an online radio service. Something that old itunes can connect too, at least. But i feel like the amount of people who'd actually use it.. Low. but it could be fun!

  • VXxANDROMEDAxXV Kimberly L (@VXxANDROMEDAxXV) reported

    @jmimies I stream him on iTunes and haven’t had issues (America)

  • Bhess 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.

  • MCareysWorld Mariah Carey's World (@MCareysWorld) reported

    Anyone knows if the issues with iTunes (the song was listed as an album instead of a single which is why is not appearing on any charts and people can't find it) have been fixed? #TypeDangerous @MariahAlerts @MariahCarey

  • AplIntelligence chrissyx (@AplIntelligence) reported

    I 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!

  • kedging Reuben (@kedging) reported

    @Grummz If I can figure out a way to mix Android with macOS (Apple TV movies and iTunes), then I can see jumping. Problem is Google is Android, or it was. Like I said, need to research.

  • Filmbeloh20 Bob 🐊🇺🇸 (@Filmbeloh20) reported

    @EricVldw @Munky_Berto I'm on like my 10th new Mac since iTunes was rolled out and I've never had a problem sending my tunes to a new machine. It's in the 'Music' folder under 'iTunes' You can drag them all straight to a external hard drive.

  • HeIsMyCaptain coach ‘burt (@HeIsMyCaptain) reported

    Recognize my iPhone or there will be problems @iTunes

  • dhrangad Himanshu Dhrangad🇮🇳 (@dhrangad) reported

    @AbhishekMarkets I would say that most people use iPhone because it is easy to upgrade. In android there is no full backup option like itunes that backs up passwords, notes and logins also. If you think you know some free apps that backup whole android (u can exclude login) let me know

  • timriah 𝕋𝕚𝕞𝓇𝒾𝒶𝒽 (@timriah) reported

    Two discounted songs have temporarily bumped #TypeDangerous down on iTunes. Keep buying Lambs!

  • spongebobinof holly ✭ (@spongebobinof) reported

    @ghiblijoonies I bought the terrible single on iTunes so I’ve been getting my money’s worth and listening on there lol

  • beaarthur85 ani (@beaarthur85) reported

    never updated to spotify or apple music because i still use youtube to mp3 and itunes. why should i change what already works and add a monthly fee to it plus the issue of "oh the artist is having a dispute now the music isn't available." i have ALL the power for free on itunes.

  • pop_jewels Pop Jewels (@pop_jewels) reported

    @marinajewels_ Falling down the ITunes Charts too Khia hell

  • aj_strong AJStrong on BlueSky (@aj_strong) reported

    So far, Apple Music/iTunes is still bloatware with a terrible interface and broken functionality. Sad. #WWDC25

  • cinemamotionss Carson Reed (@cinemamotionss) reported

    @WillFaucherVFX Use iTunes and do a backup, my phone had the same issue and Apple doesn’t let users clear your cache easily. 💩

  • daniimustdie dani 击̸ XØ (@daniimustdie) reported

    @bulletsforlunch its disabled cause i havent used it in like 6 years.... i was tryna restore it on itunes but i keep getting errors

  • BiezusNice Biez (@BiezusNice) reported

    @KEMBE_X Man, I don’t even stream - I buy allllll my ****! Physicals, exclusive drops, merch, all’at… Bandcamp (preferably) or iTunes. [****’s actually kinda a problem]

  • nets64579 CF Stan (@nets64579) reported

    @luvmesum_sweet @Cyamtha84617841 I’m too scared to make a post 🙈 but our song is down to number 3 on ITunes. Are y’all still streaming. I wanted to stay on #1 for a couple more days.

  • Luigithemetal64 LuigiTheMetal64 (@Luigithemetal64) reported

    @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.

  • _xl_p ابوو داحم (@_xl_p) reported

    @n1g4tt4 Every time I try to run the tool, I get the following error on Windows 10 — even though I have the latest version of iTunes installed: Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E The specified module could not be found ('iTunesMobileDevice.dll') How can I fix this?

  • frz3rbRnotaku1 Erica Narofsky (@frz3rbRnotaku1) reported

    Problem is. I don’t have Spotify, or stationhead, or whatever the streaming service is. I have ITunes.

  • cathavale chandrashekhar (@cathavale) reported

    @utsavtechie To do any operation with iCloud, istorage,itunes is extremely complicated. With iphone it becomes even more clumsy. Even first sign in itself is tough for a first timer. This also is one of the reasons for ordinary people to not use it.
