    Handoff Bug - iPhone Screen Blur

    I’m curious if anyone else is experiencing this issue. When using Handoff to transfer music from my iPhone to my HomePod mini, the Now Playing screen on my iPhone goes blurry and I have to lock and unlock my phone in order to get rid of it. I’m running iOS 15.0.2.

    Universal Export Spotify to music app

    Does anyone know how to export Spotify to the music app? I do not have an Apple Music subscription. I tried using songshift but it requires an Apple Music subscription to export it to Apple Music. Does anyone know how to do this?

    iPadOS and enterpreting the icons in the Music app

    So, do the icons in the highlighted area signify that the tracks haven't been downloaded to the iPad yet? I'm kind of stumped with these new icons they are using. AND, if they aren't downloaded, how can I get my iPad Mini do download all of my available music? I remember there was a setting...

    Downloading Apple Curated Playlists

    If I download an Apple curated playlist in Apple Music, such as New Music Mix, what happens to the downloaded music next Friday, when it’s updated? I’m assuming the new music will be downloaded. Will the previously downloaded music remain downloaded, or be deleted?

    Apple Music Correct Cloud Status? Local Matched files not appearing as local after reindex

    I have a pretty large library for over 50000 tracks. Since it was in disarray after many years I decided to re-index the lot. I have most of the problems resolved but a sizable number of tracks that are local show as NOT downloaded. Is there a way to correct it en masse? Does Doug have a script?

    Tracker sequencers for Mac

    I was thinking about the old Amiga A500 I threw out a few years back and remembering back to what I used it for the most. I fondly recall the many hours spent using the SoundTracker MOD players and sequencers which I used to just cobble together throwaway bits of music with. Is there anything...

    My Intel systems connect fine. The Music app on my M1 connects and the domes light, but there is no sound. I had the same issue with the Monterey beta. Restarting HomePods has no impact as is tapping the volume in case that is set too low. This is with ALL my HomePods - two stereo pairs each of...

    Has anyone found a way/know if it's possible to get Dolby Atmos songs onto Apple Watch for listening from there? I've removed the downloaded (non-Atmos) file from Music and allowed things to transfer over to Watch but so far it's still playing the non-Atmos versions.
