    @ImJESS_SayinTho @fsantoyo11 @adriennex100 Girl please. You giving ol boy at Gins waaay too much credit. That man ain’t know how to mix songs. You remember going to his booth and write down your song request in his notebook? Then he’d search his iTunes library and add it to play next. And he ain’t play all our requests 😒

  • turbogrrl turbogrrl (@turbogrrl) reported

    @gjmf @ebooksyearn yeah. also the problem with trying to do a local itunes backup is that idevice sizing is now a very large fraction of normal hard disk sizing, and can be hard to manage. icloud feels icky but it's really hard to not use it and not have to worry about losing critical data.

  • RemysNewThang 𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗬'𝗦 𝗪𝗔𝗞𝗘 𝗠𝗘 𝗨𝗣 (@RemysNewThang) reported

    @Miss_Bardii And even thats not working B|C its almost out of the Top 40 on iTunes. They keep worrying about Cardi B & Normani. Watch how they flop 2nd week like always.

  • chucklelee Christopher Lee (@chucklelee) reported

    @AS332L I have to own an ID at work. Never been a problem at all. Tesco know everything about me as does Facebook, Vodafone, iTunes, and countless other apps and companies. I must admit that it gives the moaners something to moan about though.

    @SindhiChokroVB @AppleMusic @iTunes Hello, let us fix this issue and get back to you. Thank you for informing us! 🙏

  • AyeChingow AyeChingow🦅 (@AyeChingow) reported

    @clmediaarts Yes!!!!! I didn’t realize they were in the final season when I started watching it on Netflix. Broke down and purchased the last season on iTunes because I HAD to know what happened. Fantastic series.

    Advice to users who will update iOS 14.7 1. No problem to update using Wi-Fi 2. However, it is recommended to update using iTunes 3. Make sure iPhone is free of counterfeit spare parts 4. iPhone set refurbished 'refurbished' please be careful

  • FloridaDahlias CuriosityJANE (@FloridaDahlias) reported

    @laisha2523 @ms_ddaeng @talkofthecharts If your fans are outside USA, then you will trouble requesting it. Streaming platforms like Spotify, Itunes & others already gives a good idea to Radion DJs what US fans are listening to . .

  • mixesntapes Mixes 'n' Tapes (@mixesntapes) reported

    Introducing ya boy, James Smith, layin' down some bars on his new track, Bring da Money $$$. Get it now on iTunes.

  • comewreceipts agruewithyomama (@comewreceipts) reported

    @AsianDaBrattt #NDSRemix isn’t showing up on iTunes even when we search yo name or da song. Yesterday we had to search yo name and one of da girls names before it pop up but it’s not working today so I’ve to search #nunnadetshit and click yo name under it for #NDSRemix to show

  • manghoetrish 111 bby (@manghoetrish) reported

    itunes keeps asking me to sign in on my mac like wtf

  • Pacemaker Pacemaker (@Pacemaker) reported

    @DJLEEPY Regarding your issue, I think this might me an iTunes Match bug we have in our system at the moment. Do you have iTunes Match by any chance? The problem is that our app identifies the iTunes Match replacements as Apple Music tracks, to which we need licencing to allow you to play

  • Brandon6367557 Brandon (@Brandon6367557) reported

    @andre_videla @SnazzyQ Its not like that anymore it might be a display issue iTunes doesn’t exist on mac anymore

  • BelfastBooks Belfast Books (@BelfastBooks) reported

    @carrick_g @gordonlyons1 @Economy_NI It’s bigger issue than that I’m afraid, people will go into retailers that sell Amazon, Google and iTunes gift cards, buy those and the retailer will get a tiny percentage round about the 12th of never. It’s a cert.

  • jsonbecker Jason Becker (@jsonbecker) reported

    @FromFireToTable @iTunes I think the burn in comes from the US distributor. It’s terrible.

  • ILOVELIFELOGIS1 I LOVE LIFE & LOGISTICS (@ILOVELIFELOGIS1) reported from ‘Ewa Villages, Hawaii

    @Microsoft On app windows swipe right for good or right to get next same type video or next music on my itunes playlist. Swipe down to close window app or swipe up to close video on Tictoc on my phone! Talk to apps & make them follow YOUR WINDOWS PATTERN! Every dance in sync!

  • 875overanalyzer 💜 michelle⁷ 💜 (@875overanalyzer) reported

  • AaronFlux Aaron Pruner (@AaronFlux) reported

    I just discovered the QUAKE score by Nine Inch Nails is on iTunes. And holy ****, the amount of work I did in trying to track this album down in 1996 was exhausting. 25 years later, I feel vindicated kinda.

  • cosinetangent thomas from ivalice (@cosinetangent) reported

    @Moron_Phatboi It sort of reminds me about how back before music became basically a subscription service, if you bought something on say, iTunes - you weren’t really buying the song, just a license to play the file.

  • FuuckBenny Big Benzzz (@FuuckBenny) reported

    - I used to be so obsessed with collecting music digitally :(. I'd sit down and edit my itunes. Damn, adulting sucks ***.

  • _rawbitch NDS REMIX OUT NOW🔥🔥 (@_rawbitch) reported

  • fetishl4 DUV (@fetishl4) reported

    I'll never forget when de una vez was only 200 copies away of reaching number 1 on itunes usa and that might have broken many records but USA Stans were so lazy

  • dgct2 DG ❤️⚔️ (@dgct2) reported

    @Larke98 @jschafermusic I still need to track down a copy of that movie in Canada. I wonder if it is on iTunes 🤔

  • rossgrady Ross Grady (@rossgrady) reported

    OMG and JUST NOW I remembered that the @Bandcamp app now supports downloading for offline use. 85% of what I'm struggling to sync from my iTunes to my iPhone came from @bandcamp. PROBLEM: SOLVED

  • onlytruejackass Longrod Von Hugendong 🏳️‍🌈 (@onlytruejackass) reported

    Talking with my dad is like agreeing to the iTunes terms of service. You don’t know what it wants but you agree to it so it’ll shut the hell up
