I am certain this topic has been discussed but I don't think I'm using the correct search terms to solve my issue. Here goes... Over the years, I purchased, ripped from CDs, downloaded from Napster/Limewire (LOL) many songs (1000s?). At some point (was it Apple Match?) I uploaded all those...

The Apple Shortcuts app offers a shortcut to generate the top 25 most played tracks in Apple Music. Does this playlist live update, or do I need to generate a new one to update it?

Catalina 10.15.5 - Music 1.0.5.14 On Big Sur? Revision history: Missing Features Internet radio (old style streaming stations) Filter playlists (search in playlists) View -> Show Filter Field (Still does not persist between switching playlists Music 1.0.5.x ) very annoying when using column...

Downloaded Catalina today and, so far, mostly good. The one question I have: I always manage my iPhone media library (music and music videos) manually. They're not copied to the Macbook, only on the iPhone (mostly because it's TOO much media – hundreds of Gb, more than my Macbook can...

Hi. I am new to this so not sure what works. But I have a mid 2010 27" iMac and now use Tidal streaming for hi res 24bit 96khz music. I want to improve speaker output (headphones already in use). Will this old model deliver? Do I need a USB DAC and/or high quality bookshelf active loudspeakers...

Hey, I listen to music on Spotify a lot and recently started messing with the built in EQ inside the app. I'm just curious which EQ preset you prefer when using EarPods or AirPods? Do you set your own? No EQ at all? I tend to switch between Rock and Electronic preset.

Quick question about iTunes Match/iCloud Music Library. Is there anyway to auto-download new music but only in playlists that I previously downloaded on my phone? So let's say my whole iTunes library is uploaded to Match. On my iPhone, I go in the Music app and download a couple playlists (eg...

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...

At some point in the past year (maybe when iOS 12 was installed?), a thing popped up on my iPhone asking me if I want to use optimized storage for music. It sounded good so I hit yes (big mistake). Now I’m having the problem where my iPhone 6 randomly removes downloads of songs I’ve purchased...

Hello guys, I need your help to see if I can do the following: I want to connect my iPad Pro to my MacBook Pro via USB-C to send audio from the iPad to the Mac. Is there any way of doing this? In theory USB-C is capable on sending audio, but I don't seem to find the way to send it to the Mac by...

I wanted to share this "How To" since I've found it useful lately. If you manage your podcasts on your phone, but prefer to use the nicer speakers on your Mac (and not drain phone battery), follow these steps: • Plug your phone in via USB • Open QuickTime Player • File > New Audio Recording •...

Disclaimer: (I am a complete audiophile novice, please don't take offense) I used to be an avid collector of live concerts, mainly sound board recordings/bootlegs of bands such as Pearl Jam, Audioslave and the like. I kept all files as .FLAC on my computer and the originals on CDs. At some...

I'm a long time Android user that switched to the iPhone XS Max this year. Because of my history with Google I have a lot of music in their Play Music store. Is it possible to import these songs into the Music app on the iPhone? I know I can just download the Google Play Music app, but I'm...

Hello everyone! I need some help/advice on deciding between a Mac Pro and 2018 Mac mini. This machine will be solely used for music production (Ableton Live + Plugins) and basic word processing. I do run Ableton at 48k and sometimes higher sample rates which can be tasking on my current 2014...

Hi. Hope this is the right forum ... ?! I purchased 2 songs through iTunes (Windows 7). In iTunes, both songs show up within the Purchased section. However one of the 2 has a blue greyed out iCloud Download icon. The other one has no iCloud Download icon at all. I can play both songs! Both...

Seems like every time I get into my car, and hook up my phone to the CarPlay, music from my phone starts playing (wasn't playing prior to getting into the car). Any way to prevent this? Is it remembering what I was playing 2 days ago when I used the CarPlay? If so, whats the remedy? Close the...

Listed as a feature available on the apple website, as well as verified a feature by talking to apple support, it is almost impossible for me to activate Hey Siri while playing music above level 2 volume. Obviously the volume of the music interferes with the mic's ability to pick up voice, so my...
