    Does the built-in Music app show file information (ID3tags, bitrate, etc)?

    I have an iPhone Xs Max and was playing one of my songs that I transferred over to the phone storage via iTunes. I was able to see the name of the song and length on the iPhone, but there isn't any menu option for "info" etc. Something that shows ID3 tag info, bitrate, etc. Often I like to...

    Anyone else having this happen: Can't go back a song or more shuffling

    This is odd. Anyone else having it happen? Playing tunes on the iPhone. I try to go back a track, can't. Doesn't work, just goes back to the beginning of the current track. Oh, but then sometimes, it goes 'back' to the wrong track, tracks that were never played, but that doesn't happen...

    iPhone 8/Plus Swapping SIMS for easier setup/activation?

    Good morning. I am replacing my iPhone 7 with a new iPhone 8, and have both phones in my possession, but have a question about "activation" and setup before I proceed.

    iTunes Question

    I want to load music to my iPhone 8 from iTunes. Is there a setting I need to set in iTunes before I plug-in my phone so it DOESN’T AUTOMATICALLY CHANGE ANY SETTINGS, etc. on my phone before I load the music?

    I store my iTunes library on a Synology NAS and access it from an SMB share. The library is larger the SSD in my Macbook, so I cannot store it locally. Does Time Machine back a library that is on a network drive? I entered Time Machine today and tried to navigate to the iTunes library share...

    Smart playlists with Apple Music

    Hi. I have a few smart playlists in iTunes. One of the parameters some of the playlists use is "total play count". For example, one smart playlist picks my least played songs. Needless to say (perhaps?), these playlists were developed before Apple Music. They were based on songs I had in iTunes...

    Starting last week, maybe Friday 02/15, iTunes on one of my PCs will no longer load my TV show or Movie content. At that time they still appeared, but everything was grayed out and couldn't be played. Attempting to troubleshoot it myself, I checked the Apple system status page and saw everything...
