    Warning Apple Music Can Destroy Your Existing Library!

    We tried it for a few months and then canceled it. Now we can't access 13 years of over 1500 songs that we have either purchased from iTunes or copied from CDs that we had purchased but no longer own. You can still see all your songs but when you try to play them you get message “The song “X”...

    Greetings, my girlfriend is a dance teacher and she uses a lot of content found and purchased on Amazon music to prepare lessons done at the bar (and ok, same songs can be found on Apple Music as well), and then for certain live shows she needs to have let's say cut version of same songs (like...

    I just got off the phone with Apple tech support. I recently resubscribed to iTunes Match and was thinking about moving over to Apple Music. I wanted to know if the matching system was the same as iTunes Match because they finally got it right. It works perfectly. Finally. Anyway, the tech...

    Is Apple Music's 'Top Lists' Skewed to Feature the Latest Rap Music?

    Before I get into the nitty gritty, I'd like to point out I'm a fan of rap music... but I'm also a fan of various other genres. I think that Apple Music isn't good for music discovery, and here's why: I believe they skew 'Top Music' lists to feature only rap music, and this has been a trend...

    HomePod HomePod randomly pauses songs

    I just got a HomePod a few days ago, and while I love the sound (no problem with reduced bass on 11.3), it sometimes pauses songs randomly when played from a playlist. This happens at the beginning of a song, after 1 or 2 seconds, and when I say “hey Siri, play”, it will continue from where it...

    Subtitle for Music Videos on Apple TV 4K

    I am wondering if any of you having issue with a subtitle for the music videos on Apple TV 4K? It's been ongoing for me since TVOS 11.3 and also 11.4 Beta. A good sample would be music video called "Meant To Be" by Bebe Rexha. Thanks!

    Hi all, I upgraded my iPhone 7+ to iOS 11.3 on Monday evening. I am encountering a problem with Apple Music not allowing me to rate songs. The star is not present, so I am unable to rate songs as "Play more like this" or "Never play this song." I have done a power off of the iPhone, same issue...

    Hello, I have around 40 GB of mp3 music files on my Macbook in iTunes. As I'm also an Apple Music subscriber, I want to have the best of two worlds on my synced iPhone/iPad. I recently turned on iCloud Music Library on my Mac to have access to all my mp3 music files initially stored onto...

    IOS Beta 11.3 suddenly decided I'm running Apple Music regardless of what I want...

    This afternoon I launched the music app and all of a sudden I got "Welcome to Apple Music" and the only option is to continue. If I force quit the app and relaunch it comes back. How do I go back to the music app? My workaround is to use the Cesium music player. I've got close to 10,000...

    Apple Music Design

    I tried Apple Music for the first time today. Its a bad design. And the country you always find offers artists. Not like Spotify. Large fonts and bad cover designs. What are you thinking?

    Siri play new music command

    I tried asking Siri on my iPhone to “play new songs I might like” and the results so far has been very disappointing. The other day, it played an entire album from a group I’ve never heard of, and despite saying “I don’t like this album” it kept playing the next song in the album. And today is...

    Is there a good tutorial on Apple Music?

    I'm not impressed, which leads me to believe I'm not using it properly. I keep seeing 'For You' and their 'chill mix', and 'new music mix'; PASS. I don't have friends so I don't have anyone to listen to. Then 'recently played', and I get that. So 'Wednesday's Playlists'. There is only six...

    HomePod HomePod and Siri - inconsistent playback of Playlists

    One oddity I've noticed is that I can ask "Hey Siri play my playlist" Siri says "Which playlist would you like me to play" I then say the name of the playlist. Siri then says "Sure, playing XXXX playlist" - and then usually plays the playlist but sometimes just goes to sleep at that point...

    HomePod Two HomePods vs Bowers & Wilkins A7

    I put two HomePods up against my trusty B&W A7. - HomePods together have clearer highs than the A7 - A7 has fuller mids than two HomePods - A7 sounds better than a single HomePod - A7 sounds ever so slightly better than two HomePods in stereo Also: - A7 airplay is not 100% reliable - Siri /...

    ECM Records now on Apple Music

    Much of the catalog of the great ECM Records is now streaming on Apple Music (and apparently Spotify). The seminal Munich-based label has been a streaming holdout. I'm both happy and sad (knowing the revenue lost to streaming) to see it finally available on Apple Music.
