    @lisajlange They are just taking shows from our feed. It’s working on our end so whatever problem they have they need to fix. Sorry. It’s available on Spotify and iTunes as well.

  • shoddyknight MxMelkor 💀 Knight (@shoddyknight) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    I hate the fact Apple sends verification code to trusted devices rather than have 2fa via whatever app you want. I DON'T HAVE ANY PERSONAL ******* APPLE PRODUCTS APART FROM ITUNES WHICH I ALSO WISH TO OCCASIONALLY LOGIN TO ON MY WORK MACBOOK

  • BoyInHD ✨ Dan ✨ (@BoyInHD) reported

    Anyone have an issue with GarageBand where you can’t drag a song from iTunes into a mix? I’m stumped. It worked fine last night and I didn’t change any settings.

  • SamGreenArtist Sam Green Artist (@SamGreenArtist) reported

    @Wesdillustrates Trying to get music from my iPad to my PC (iTunes) so that I A) have access to it on my PC and B) so I can transfer it to my new iPad. Problem is a good chunk of it is well over a decade old, ripped from CDs etc and can't be transferred as it's not purchased from iTunes.

  • NotFloriiann Quack (@NotFloriiann) reported

    @dreaminsideof recovery mode is basically something that connects your iphone to a computer and lets an app like itunes for example find and fix the problem with your iphone i think, im an android user so like-

  • NoahNoah6085 Noah (@NoahNoah6085) reported

    @EstimadoSub @Casey Im afraid of something?? Explain what I’m afraid of in more detail please. Casey asked for feedback so I have my view as to why Apple is better in some “privacy” aspects and have feedback . U don’t need to sign in to use your apple device btw. You can use iTunes and sideload apps

  • LilThuglett Lana (@LilThuglett) reported

    The @phantom airdrop issue somehow reminds me of when iTunes dropped the U2 album into everyone’s library and it was an absolute pain to get rid of

  • TheAimercat Amy Harber, queen of all social media ;) (@TheAimercat) reported

    If you are having problems with your #FuturePast pre-order downloading, cancel your pre-order in @itunes and then go back into Itunes and use "complete my album" to get the songs that were released tonight.

  • iwontshatter lex (@iwontshatter) reported

    @WillFerri should i make your remix of almost forgot my ringtone? i was gonna make jump, weapon, or burn it down my ringtone bc those are available in the itunes store for ringtones. but then i saw your remix of almost forgot

  • ScottArhart Scott Arhart (@ScottArhart) reported

    Steven Seagal classics Above the Law, Fire Down Below & Out for Justice are all on sale on iTunes under Action & Adventure. If they were released now, would they be comedies?

  • dieataru mousse (@dieataru) reported

    For context: the song was taken off youtube ALL VIDS OF YHIS VERSION. its region locked to japan only for itunes n spotify. I could NEVER find it anywhere so i ended up buying the cd but its too much trouble to connect my xbox to just listen to it.

  • jaytheredneck1 🇨🇦Jay🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@jaytheredneck1) reported

    @ImLozaAlexander @TikTokSupport I’m going on iTunes right now to get that ****, hope they don’t take it down on ya

  • MarkVeau Mark Veau (@MarkVeau) reported

    @U2ThreeChords @johnlaurenti Saw them on the Joshua Tree tour & Unforgettable Fire tour all great shows BUT - they lost me after Rattle & Hum - and I couldn’t stand them ramming that ITunes album down our throats - Boy, October, War, those albums I love - When Bono went “Castro” and that was it for me - bye

  • PunkofNuts PunkNutsNFT@PunkNuts (@PunkofNuts) reported

    @LordTJCrypto What was the Amazon music link again? I can down load it on iTunes but wants to make sure I was buying it to support your project

  • djscmusic DJ Sexual Chocolate (@djscmusic) reported

    @cfloinc @itsmartyrock @crativityapp The problem if have is my brain sees the crates I made in ITunes I need serato to give me an option to untick one song from being played blue not all my songs

  • lazysaruchan ♥パンダ (@lazysaruchan) reported

    are you ************* kidding me.. I signed out of one itunes and into another region and it ******* deleted my ******* transit card.. ******* bullshit.... ¥2300 down the ******* drain...

  • EricaLScott Erica Scott (Fully vaxxed; you?) (@EricaLScott) reported

    Feel like I spent all day on the phone. Can't get songs to download on iTunes. Two calls, two techs, they can't figure it out. Say it's my card. Call the bank. Card is fine. Go back to iTunes and switch to another card. 🤞🏻 At least Apple gave me two free songs for the trouble.

  • benyavins ✡︎ LIKE WATCHING THE EARTHRISE ✡︎ (@benyavins) reported

    @iTunes pls fix your preorders for Starset’s Horizons. this isn’t the first time your preorders have broken/been late but i’m tired of dealing with it so it may be the last. there’s no point in preordering on itunes to have the music before CDs ship if you can’t deliver on time.

  • erik_paulson Erik Paulson (@erik_paulson) reported

    @APerzanowski @normative @hoofnagle I do as best I can to avoid iCloud so I think all of my copies are local, though I've never gone to all the trouble of copying the files to a location that iTunes couldn't delete out from under me - but I've never considered iTunes might delete my stuff for licensing reasons

  • outof3999 Money Warrior🔞 (@outof3999) reported

    Don't ******* ruin this collab just because of that Spotify issue. DJ Snake's Team is on it already so calm your tits stream and buy on ITUNES after the m/v is released

  • zoewhittall Zoe Whittall (@zoewhittall) reported

    @debbierachlis Yeah that was the issue at first and then I turned the Bluetooth off on my phone and left it in another room and then it opened my iTunes etc on my laptop

  • nikiw124 Niki says your mask should cover your nose too 😷 (@nikiw124) reported

    Working in the kitchen, while in the front room the W10 is into hour 2 of 'boot up, iTunes, buy 1 track, sync, shut down' & is currently puzzling over the 'buy 1 track' stage.

  • Chris_Skinner Chris Skinner (@Chris_Skinner) reported

    @davidlh Got an email for a subscription. Wanted to cancel it. Tried to sign in online. Told me I had to download iTunes. Eventually found the place to cancel subscriptions and iTunes crashed every time ... so easy!
