    iCloud Music library - Apple Music question/help!

    I've been on Music pretty much since it came out, but I've always had iCloud Music Library turned off. The reason I've had it turned off was because I've read online (I guess this was in 2015 so hopefully its changed by now) that if I had iCloud Music Library on, it was possible that the...

    I share monthly playlists on my wordpress blog using a widget created with the apple music toolbox: https://tools.applemusic.com/ I've never had a problem with this but when trying to share my latest playlist, instead of showing the songs the widget shows a generic message asking you to join...

    Is Apple Music offline-content possible without iCloud Music Library enabled?

    Hi everyone! I was wondering if someone with the first Beta of iOS 11 installed could check on this. Ever since Apple Music started, I really wanted to use the service, but that you have to have iCloud Music Library enabled if you want to download music from Apple Music (or use playlists)...

    Apple Music refuses to play songs for me

    Apple Music has been acting weird for me. For some reason, it refuses to play songs all of a sudden, displaying a "Checking for downloads..." message in the Now Playing bar. It then cycles through all songs in the album, skipping them, until it plays a song I've played before (and presumably...

    Pathetic Searching in Apple Music

    Searching in Apple Music is incredibly pathetic. For example, I search, in iTunes, for "yesterday", click on Songs>See all and I get 37 results. "All"? Five of the results are for something other than songs titled "Yesterday". The Lennon/McCartney song "Yesterday" has been recorded over 3000...

    Blacklist songs I hate (get dislike to actually work)

    Is there a way to "blacklist" a song in apple music? I find it infuriating that even though I have disliked a song they will continue to recommend it to me in "for you" and it will still play in the radio stations... Am I missing something or are the apple provided playlists intent on...

    Anyone still sync with iTunes?

    Just out of curiosity, I'm wondering how many people out there still sync their music through iTunes rather than using something like iTunes Match or Apple Music? I'm including a poll to get a general idea of how people sync their personal music libraries.

    How do I get back to an Apple Music playlist?

    I was browsing around in the Moods section and started a playlist and ended up liking it. But I had been browsing after I started it and I can't remember what it was called. It's easy to get back to the full playlist on Spotify but it doesn't seem as intuitive on Apple Music on iOS. If I...

    Why I cancelled my Apple Music Subscription

    The reason I switched over from Spotify to Apple Music is because I bought an Apple Watch Series 2 and Apple only let you sync their service to the watch. No Spotify, Deezer, Amazon Music, Tidal or anything else including Podcasts…. Apple Music only! But seeing as the music library was about the...

    Apple Music & iTunes Match/iCloud

    I currently have Apple Music & iTunes Match. I'm thinking of cancelling Apple Music, do I need to download all the music I've saved from Apple Music to keep it, as I have iTunes match? Or does it simply just need to be in my library to keep it after my Apple Music subscription ends?
