WHAT is going on with Apple Music?? (**with videos**) Can't play anything.
I've been having this problem for months. I don't know why I haven't just canceled yet. I have all of my music library through Apple Music, and I really don't want to switch services and manually add each of my songs to another service - along with playlist organization, etc.. I'm also not ready to give up this phone. It works fine, this is the only issue.
Here's the problem:
One day, a long time ago, out of the blue, I attempt to hit play on a song (downloaded or not) from Apple Music. It attempts* to play it, and then pauses, both almost instantly, within under a second. Sometimes I hit play and it spazzes out for a second between pause/play. Sometimes, 1/100 chance, it actually works. However, forget about pausing the song - this will restart the glitch.
Screencap of it:
*it might not even attempt to play it; it's probably just a huge music-breaking glitch.
Now, it's an entirely different story if I play something that has been downloaded to my computer from a third party, or purchased from iTunes. For example, I create music, and I use iTunes to upload my pieces to iCloud, which then transfers to my phone over the cloud. This music plays just fine.
Screencap of this:
It's just Apple Music - the pay per month service. I've been unable to play any Apple Music for months.
Any advice or insight would be appreciated.
