    @canasiantl It's a lot of problems with drivers on apple's end with itunes and how it works connecting to the phone and how it works with windows. It's a pain in the *** and you can't force anything with the drivers on a PC.

  • BardisDiamonds 𝑀𝒶𝒾𝓃 𝑅𝒶𝓅 𝒢𝒾𝓇𝓁 𝒮𝓉𝒶𝓃❤️(Fan account) (@BardisDiamonds) reported

    @MisterShugar @HonestBardi @cardibchartdata We go up didn’t even enter the Spotify charts and tumbled down iTunes after a couple days, what’s your point?

  • rob_hickok Rob Hickok (@rob_hickok) reported

    @guiltgracepod I just don't use iTunes. Problem with Google is I can't leave you guys a rating. Kind of dumb. Hopefully they change that someday.

    @BilGalacticHero I had the same brief power flicker (11am). One PC rebooted and the other (which was asleep) stayed up. Modem did restart but no issues so far other than for some reason iTunes on the rebooted PC was hosed and I had to resync iCloud Music Library. All seems to be good now.

  • __spv spv (@__spv) reported

    restored it in itunes it didn't **** itself and panic, but it did give error 29 when updating firmware (baseband **** iirc)

  • ghiafairy Ghia Fairy 🍌 AkiHaru brainrot!!! (@ghiafairy) reported

    Can tell that I haven't had any issues updating my iPhone for a bit. Had to update it on my Mac and the experience is different than I'm use to. Now you update it through the Finder since iTunes is no longer a thing on macOS.

  • Conspira_Sphere The ConspiraSphere (@Conspira_Sphere) reported

    @LandsharkRides And steam And itunes And every other streaming service

    @ladysarahbell @LBrannon53 I'm and android/Google person because it's better and I never have these problems & the Chargers are universal and there is no iTunes, and some of them have headphone Jacks, and they work better and have better cameras, better apps, and no adapters

  • ChauTanuki Nuki Chau ㊙️ Vtuber (Pre-Debut) (@ChauTanuki) reported

    @HimuraAki2 i have had three problems like this. I've had it be a failing usb port, itunes needing updated, weird firewall issues that I loathed troubleshooting

  • volterinator Daniel Silva (@volterinator) reported

    Ok it makes even less sense that @iTunes has no actual link to @AppleMusic. I know there’s an economic crisis and it hits us all equally, I feel with ya. but I already pay for one service with all the music I want to, why would I buy it all over again?

  • patricktoomey Patrick Toomey (@patricktoomey) reported

    @lgarron @iTunes @AppleMusic Sadly it seems like a problem nearly nobody has a desire to solve. Apple did…but nobody else…and now not even apple.

  • Minajlb dabarbienicki (@Minajlb) reported

    Imagine “Do We Have A Problem hits #1 on U.S iTunes, two months after it’s release” 👀 👀

  • osx_unix osxunix.ethernet (@osx_unix) reported

    @dorkingbeauty1 @aldo_delgado @kwabenaboitey11 This looks like iTunes Match doing things as expected. The issue I think that is happening is the match for his CD is currently unavailable. Could be a licensing issue or could be down service for user.

  • apbattman Alex (@apbattman) reported

    @needles_94 Because iTunes (or any online service) could literally just shut down and you’d lose access to all “your” media

  • morguemuffin 911 〄 (@morguemuffin) reported

    I got a problem @BrianNewmanNY My Eyes on the City left my itunes!

  • needles_94 Josh Needle (@needles_94) reported

    @apbattman And if the day does actually come where for some reason Vudu, or iTunes, or Google Play etc shut down out of nowhere and suddenly my movies are gone, there are things like the Plex media server or even just a hard drive that immediately resolve that issue.

  • patricktoomey Patrick Toomey (@patricktoomey) reported

    @lgarron @iTunes @AppleMusic I’m willing to believe the capability to remove things was done with good intent and it was supposed to make elimination of duplicates and other such things feel “magic”. Problem is..once abstractions fail to live up to their promise..the failed magic feels actively malicious.

  • awoell Alexander Woell (@awoell) reported

    @ItsJustDJ Is “sync library” enabled in Apple Music? If so, you’ll want to turn that off and sync the music via iTunes or Finder (on 10.15+) to avoid this issue in the future.

  • HotBardii HotBardi🤍🤎 (@HotBardii) reported

    @TacoBellCunt @era_cb2 She has number 1’s on iTunes before so please sit down we go up flopped

  • patricktoomey Patrick Toomey (@patricktoomey) reported

    @lgarron @iTunes @AppleMusic Yeah….pretty much the only “solution” or even potential solution to modern day apple abstraction problems is to log everything out of iCloud…delete as much local metadata/configs as you can, log back in, and 🤞real hard.

  • era_cb2 𝑁𝑎𝑏𝑖𝑙❤️🔥𝑆ℎ𝑎𝑘𝑒 𝑖𝑡 𝑟𝑒𝑚𝑖𝑥 4/15 (@era_cb2) reported

    Shake it : Reached the top 10 on iTunes with only two versions (explicit and clean ) , peaked 15 on Apple Music in 24 h , chart on Us Spotify We go Down : 8 versions , mass buying , peaked 14 on Apple music after 3 days , didn’t chart on Us Spotify

  • ac_madame MadameAC (@ac_madame) reported

    Any of my ACPC moots having trouble buying leaf tickets? I can’t buy any, I get an error message. But I am able to pay for Itunes and other apps. Its been since the last update. @Pocket_Camp

  • ihorner Ian D. Horner 💮 (@ihorner) reported

    @Onesteelcobra Skips are also counted in the iTunes database, and useful to make playlists against. If it’s skipped a lot recently, should it go down in rating? Etc.
