Apple Music won't work on iMac

I have tried those DNS servers to no avail.

What i experience in iTunes:

1. I select play for a track in an album
2. iTunes displays "Checking for downloads..."
3. iTunes doesn't play track and skips to next track in album
4. iTunes repeats steps 2 through 4 for all tracks and ends.

What has worked is to use TunnelBear to route my traffic via a US VPN

Exact same issue here (works on iOS, but not OSX), but it has since stopped giving me error messages. If trying to stream a playlist (album, for instance) it just appears to continuously skip to the next track but never plays anything. Been on phone with Apple Support but couldn't resolve so now awaiting callback from engineering team in next couple of days.

I am situated in Belarus and experiencing the same problem.

If I use a US VPN connection - all songs play fine.

Exactly the same issue as described above, also called apple help but not able to resolve for me.

Same issue here.
Logged in to UK store.
mac mini mid2011, OSX 10.10.4

I was having the described problem (see my post a bit higher)

Found a fix

I was using Google DNS. Change DNS to Norton DNS

• 199.85.126.10
• 199.85.127.10

And now music works again for me! (Belarus)

Thanks for posting CurtisTaylor. Dealing with exact same issue on my MacBook Pro. Able to stream most things off my iPhone - no luck at all with Apple Music on OS X.

Same issue, very frustrating. Apple please look into and fix this.

Had the same issue here (couldn't play or download song for offline mode).

Many other people and myseIf was able to fix the issue by changing the DNS. We were using Google's DNS :

Try this. Go to :

system preferences > network > wifi > advanced > dns

if you have 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, remove them and left it blank instead or use those two :

• 199.85.126.10
• 199.85.127.10

For the last 2 days I've been dealing with Apple Music's unreliableness, thanks for this fix!

Hi guys,
I'm just using my standard wifi setup here in the UK.
So, my DNS router has my routers' local IP address.
Changing DNS to the ones mentioned above wouldn't help for me.
Am I missing something here?

Cheers,
Markus

EDIT: Works now with 199.85.127.10
can someone explain what's going wrong here? Interesting case in my opinion.
Cheers for you help.

I had this same problem and changing it to 199.85.127.10 has worked for me too.

Apple needs to investigate this!!

Same problems in Finland:

Apple Music (streaming) won't work with any of the DNS server addresses... Won't help resetting/changing the DNS or rebooting..

Yes Apple should investigate this!

same problems here in uk. I have been able to play an album form its store on iPhone this morning. went to try another and that just skipped through ll the tracks without playing. Tried from my iMac and I experience the same issue - songs listing but just not playing. Seems to be only online music!!
