    Just tested it there, worked fine for me. Videos don't stream but the audio plays through the TV no problem.

    Restarted the Apple TV and iPad and hey presto all working fine. Full cover art and sounds great through the speakers I have connected to the TV. I can even change tracks with the Apple TV remote. Happy days

    I can't see an option anywhere in my itunes library on my laptop to enable icloud for my library- the only stuff that's showing up in my music app on my phone is the stuff stored locally on my phone. I've tried following the instructions about itunes>preferences>turn on icloud, but there's nothing in preferences.

    Am I just missing something really obvious???

    You have to wait for iTunes 12.2.

    I can't seem to add songs to My Music. I can't enable iCloud Music or something. What's that about?

    Server being hammered probably. Restart and keep trying.

    Yeah and the choice of acts to add from there is quite limited.

    Keep tapping more artists. I got some really obscure artists in my lists. Keep tapping and refining and you'll get there.

    Make sure you lock down your username under the My Music page!
    Some hilarious ones taken on reddit already, some guy got @obama.

    I did that but after a while only one comes up at a time and they're ones I'd never be interested in. Taylor Swift came up once for God's sake and I have none of her stuff in my library and deselected pop and hit songs in the initial stage.

    Just tried it. Served up loads of music I like. It's cool that the artists pages have videos, live albums and b-sides too..


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,479 ✭✭✭Notorious97


    trying it now for an hour I'm pretty happy with it, always wished apple would do something like this. If they brought this service to the PS4 id be totally complete in all my needs for gaming

    A little birdie has told me that you can expect iTunes to appear after 4pm Cupertino time which is about midnight here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 95 ✭✭Clem H Fandango


    iTunes 12.2 is out now, on my App store updates.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,751 ✭✭✭mirrorwall14


    Downloading now :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,088 ✭✭✭SpaceTime


    Close enough to midnight :D

    I'd say they're just trying to balance server loads.

    There have been issues before when everyone's tried downloading everything simultaneously and it all starts to crawl.

    Better to stagger things I guess.

    Zane Lowe playing 5am-7am GMT this morning. Kinda disappointed to have him on that early in out time zone especially with the Eminem interview.

    Shame it's so early for us. Since the first episode was turned into a playlist, I would hope that each 'episode' playlist has a recording of the interview as well.
    I have to say, I am really enjoying Beats One, I didn't think it would be up my street at all and already have a handful of new songs on my commute playlist.

    Good thinking. I did see that on the blog it says 5am/pm so maybe 12 hours later it's a repeat? We shall know more tomorrow I guess.

    Yeah it's a repeat.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25 Future Primitive


    The 'For You' section is excellent. For me anyway. So much stuff to listen to!


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,628 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Downloaded it this morning and just being able to listen to music I don't have is great. And it seems to be working great *touch wood*


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,628 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Also I only worked out the reason why zane Lowe left BBC radio 1 after I downloaded it.

    I know I dont have to worry about it for 3 months , but if I take up itunes match (which puts my music in the cloud) , I can keep the radio stations and pay €25 per year as opposed to €120 ?

    I'm not that bothered about apple recommending music to me. And if I can keep the curated radio stations then I get new music pushed to me.

    Or am I missing something obvious ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 242 ✭✭greyc


    I can't seem to play my own music on the new App. The albums are there and icloud is activated but when i click on a track nothing happens. New tracks that I've streamed from the service are playing ok. Anyone any ideas?

    Are you sure about us getting iTunes Radio with iTunes Match? That's how it is in the US and Aus, where the radio stations are free with ads and iTunes Match users get them ad-free and skippable. But that hadn't rolled out internationally yet and radio is currently listed as a feature of Apple Music.

    Try restarting. If they are matched/uploaded tracks from another computer/device it could be server issues.
