Itunes Browse, Radio, and For You tabs only show spinning wheel

I'm using an iMac late 2013 running OS X El Capitan version 10.11.6. My itunes version is 12.8.2.3. For the last few days I have not been able to select Browse, Radio, or the For You tabs on itunes. When I do I see the spinning wheel like it's loading but it spins forever. I have tried restarting, logging in and out of itunes, reinstalling itunes, deleting cache files from itunes and nothing has solved this issue. Is there anyone out there with a solution to this? My Apple Music account is fine as I can run iTunes fine on my macbook and on my iPhone.

Using safe mode has been suggested in past threads on the same topic, to no avail. It seems that the only solution found in previous cases was "it just started working again". That's no solution. This problem has existed for years with no fix offered by Apple. So, I guess we all wait until it "starts working again"? I'm not harping on your suggestion. I appreciate the input but it seems we are on a merry-go-round with this issue--same problem, same suggestions, no results. BTW, I have very similar specs to the people above, so won't repeat them here and for me, upgrading the OS is also not an option.

Same, this happens every three months or so. 'Browse', 'For You' and 'radio' don't work. Shoddy Shoddy Apple.


Apple forgets sometimes that we pay money for their junk software and can't be bothered to fix it properly. You're supposed to just go out and buy a new apple computer/ipad/iphone. They are a hardware company. Sad how a decent brand has gone down the drain.
