    @sfchronicle I would not want to receive therapy from someone that felt like they were being "held hostage with words" by a phone scammer. OR felt that avoiding "legal trouble" is as simple as buying $1K worth of Amazon/iTunes/Chili's gift cards. I have no sympathy for them.

    Customer: my phone is broken into two pieces. Apple: Have you tried restoring you phone from iTunes?

    The OCC is a load of crap. I just don't get why they're not transparent with us. Always introducing new rules & not counting sales. We were at #2 yday, & suddenly down to #3 today, when we've been buying on all platforms, have been steady on itunes, & also increasing on AM etc.

    @ReturnofR I really have to say Zanadu, Magic, but ITunes & Spotify have erased it, Don’t Bring Me Down, All Over the World, Strange Magic.🎶🎵🎵

    @gruber One thing that bit me in the behind was clipper card. Would not setup on the new phone, had already wiped old one. Had to setup old phone (as new) and login to iCloud/iTunes setup wallet add,then delete clipper card from wallet to add to new phone :(

    @ZukoFlavour @MacGUnleashed @Solphendukaa Yes they need to get someone to do communications for them. I also think the video is an issue because I saw 2 people saying the episode is available on iTunes and Spotify

    @dwolfmeyer I had one issue. Apple Music wouldn’t work. If I tried to listen to something I added through iTunes Match it was fine. Anything through Apple Music would get a connection error. Lasted that whole first day. On the next morning it worked fine.

    @afeltus WOW what an ear! So here's the deal: I ripped the vinyl (US Geffen), saved the files to my NAS, then added to my digital library & iTunes Match. Due to some tech issue I wasn't able to get to the NAS, so I used the files from iTunes WHICH is some Apple version likely remastered.

    Shout out to Chat Guy Steve, at iTunes Support. Couldn't fix my problem, but I appreciated the attempt and good humor. Now, if I could just get things back to "normal". @iTunes #ihatetechnologysometimes #technologyisgreatwhenitworks

    @iTunes its a complete joke that every time you have to get a new computer all of your personally down loaded music in your itunes library isnt carried over to the new computer. 🤬

    @EmilioEmm Apple knows that people have different IDs for iTunes/App Store vs iCloud/iMessage/FaceTime. You can sign into just your iTunes Apple ID with your account and he can still sign in with his iCloud account for syncing/backup/FaceTime/iMessage.

    @iTunes I've tried to buy the new @ministryofsound compilation from the store, and it's not adding to my collection. Are you areaway of any issues with this compilation at all? It would be great if you could look into this.

    @jonnybuckIand Yea you can do both without problems just remember to download everything and delete after the iTunes purchases if you stream on Apple Music if you don’t the Apple Music stream won’t count

    @NatieNampa Another great thing about Samsung is they no longer use any Chinese chips that can spy on you and give the GoU data The trouble with iPhone in Uganda is forced updates, & need to be connected to iTunes / iCloud for full function, MBs too expensive in UG for that

    @caslernoel It's weird to me that I keep hearing this about apple sign-ins. I hadn't signed in to my apple itunes account in almost 8 years, then I saw a show that I wanted to check out on ATV, I was able to log right in, no problems. I'm still confused. I don't even own an apple device...

  • aLaaah
    Alain Antoniazzi (@aLaaah) reported

    @tomi Is it an xs? Happened the same to me, plugged and bricked, I wasn't even able to access data from itunes nor apple tech support managed to reset it or recover data. They had to replace the phone as whole. If it's the same issue hope you have a recent backup cuz it's a pain.

    @christos77 @neonphase iTunes is a piece of crap. They have had problems the past two months or more. I'll look into it. I use a different app so unless someone messages me I don't know so thanks for letting me know.

    People at the check-out of a drug store buying $4,000 in iTunes giftcards for a guy who called them on the phone saying they was in trouble and needed to do this: This is definitely a normal thing to do.

    Tried to use itunes to download a song/instrumental instead of YT ripping. It's STILL a total **** of a program. Made a fresh Apple account or whatever, can't log on to AppleMusic/Itunes without getting a bs unexplained error that's not resolvable. ****-*** Apple. **** you.
