Apple Music not working on iPhone 6 after iOS 9.1

Today, I realized how integral my App Store AppleID sign-in is to the iPhone experience. I cannot download or update apps. I cannot purchase music. I cannot buy, download, or update iBooks nor can I keep my bookmarks in sync between devices. I cannot open Pandora or Frozen Free Fall. Who knows how much more functionality may be lost. I'm willing to give up my nifty new emojis to go back to 9.0.2 which really worked well. I'll never get back all this fruitless troubleshooting time.

Same issues here, a new phone replacement worked perfectly fine until as anybody would have to I begun restoring my backup. This is after a week of spending wasted time on the phone to lovely apple care, which towards the end of the week was just running me in circles.

Then again all **** hit the fan, apps won't download, my music won't show up and my Apple ID is having issues singing in and out. It just goes to show that when things are rushed huge problems occur! Like all of us I hope apple in on a fix for this sooner rather than later and they bloody well better be ready to compensate for the loss of time, unusable apps and many other problems this 33 day rush out of 9.1 has caused.

I'll be doing the same again tonight however wont be using no my backup to restore the phone, I will have to redownload all my apps, replicate my settings and such its going to take hours and have me Swearing blue murder at Apple. But I guess setting it up as a new phone without using a backup is the last and only option. Let you know how it all goes.

On another not it looks as if we will be waiting till mid December for 9.2 over a month of wasted data usage and applications unable to be accessed quite possibly. Hope Apple have plans to quell us all.

Know what you mean man. Ive done that a tonne too. I mean a total wipe set up as a new phone and leaving my backup alone till a fix comes out. Least then I'll have my music my tunes and fingers crossed will be able to download apps again. Was possible yesterday until I went up restored my backup. Keep yas posted.

Hi All,

my problem is now resolved, but I do not know why.

I had this terrible Apple Music issue (always crashing), then my iPhone 4S on iOS9.1 froze one time at the Unlock-Screen (which I had never had before), after a reset it came up fine (I pressed the Home and Power button really long). Also Apple Music now works flawlessly (before that it always quite a few seconds after launching with a short black screen - and back to the home area).

Now, this is all gone! Magic?

Cheers,

Peter

I'm having the same problems in iOS 9.1 - links in the emails don’t work, Apple Music keeps freezing, Beats1 don’t work and can’t download apps from App Store). I also believe it's an Apple ID problem. When I logout from Apple ID, links in emails, for example, return to work. The first time I had these problems was in version 8.4.1. During iOS 9.0 I had no issues.

Hi Walter,

Thank you for your comments in trying to solve the problem. In response to your comment that this is an issue of having iOS 9.1, I would say that my newly BUY phone "6S" is coming with iOS 9.02 and the same I cannot open it... The main music screen is not changing for too long by now!

Best Regards

Thanks

Looks like we're waiting. Hope Apple learns a lesson from this, free upgrades to 6S for eveybody affected I would suggest. Though thats wishfull thinking. Nothing has worked even attempted to backtrack though DFU yet again same problems present themselves. Apple ID is screwed. Id like to know if Apple will reimburse me now for however long this takes in lost business...

It's only been two hours so I'm saying this with caution, but it would appear that GARY'S SOLUTION WORKS. Reboot the phone, turn airplane mode on, turn airplane mode off, and then everything is normal again. I didn't actually have to agree to any new terms and conditions on the app store, which concerns me slightly, but after two hours of completely normal functioning I'm almost ready to say that Gary may have cracked the bug. Will update if anything changes though.

Let's all buy Gary a drink.

Gary's solution worked for me as well. Though only for about an hour. I was able to update apps and listen to Apple Music. Then after a playlist I listened to was over and I went to listen to another song Apple Music prompted me to join even though I'm on the free trial and just listen to music for an hour. I was not prompted to agree to any new terms or conditions after turning my phone off then turning Air Plane mood on and off and going to the App Store. I was so pumped too! Oh well hopefully a more concrete solution is made available soon. Thanks anyways Gary! 🙂

So I turned my phone off and on then turned air plane mode on and off again and now my Apple Music is working again for the time being. So there is something there. Not a permanent fix, but def on the right path.

Turning airplane mode on then off after a reboot definitely did something. I was able to update all the apps that needed updating - the first time since this iOS 9.1 bug appeared. Previously purchases partially downloaded (again more than I had managed previously). But I wasn't able to complete the download, nor purchase any new apps. And no luck with Apple Music loading. So definitely the start of the solution, but for me it wasn't the complete solution.
