Apps playing in background Why does music or other apps play in the background while I am trying to listen to info on a different app? I have turned off the other apps, but music keeps coming back in background even when it is not open.

apple music pauses while in background My Apple Music works fine when it's the foreground app, however when I launch other apps my music starts to pause a lot. When bring the music app to the foreground to investigate, it immediately starts to work perfectly. I then go back to my work and it will continue to play the remainder of the current song perfectly but then when it starts the next song it has to pause constantly because it cannot download it fast enough to play while the music app is in the background. I have a very fast M2 Mac and a 100mbps Internet service that works very well. Music cannot download fast enough to play unless it's the foreground app. I am hoping it's a simple matter of allowing Apple Music to work in the background but I have been unable to locate any controls that would allow the app a higher priority while in the background. Any ideas on how I can fix this would be greatly appreciated.

How to stop Apple Music from playing automatically? Apple Music starts up randomly without any input from me. It will suddenly start playing the first tune in the iTune library while I'm trying to something entirely unrelated, and Music is (supposedly) unopened. I also notice that Music seems to be permanently squatting in my Control Center, where it has no business being. How can I stop this annoying app?

Contact TikTok for help with their app, this is not an Apple issue.

Turning Background Music:

While awaiting a call, the music will play while you await —nothing you can do about that.
