>>130567213If you're sharing your account or using someone else's account it might be because they're accessing it too.
>>130567228Im not sharing it with anyone. Maybe my phone?
Goddamn anons dont even know how to work apple shit.We are lost
>>130567260whats not to get? theres no reason it should be prompting to sign in when Im just accessing my library, or why it prompts again despite deauthorizing
>>130567272go to >>>/g/ and lurk there for a good long while too. like a solid decade or more
>>130567213Bend over and take my meat python up your shit pipe
>>130567260Apple wasn't this bad back when I was using a Mac roughly 15 years ago. It's a shame that it appears as though they've completely bought into this "always online for everything" bullshit.
>>130567213I can't relate I'm a turbo sperg who rips crusty compressed licensed music from game iso's and puts them on my phone until I only have like 700-800 megabytes of space left and I just kinda listen to it. You know the shit quality really adds to the nostalgia actually.
>>130567411what
>>130568473Seems pretty self-explanatory.
imagine needing an account and sign in to listen music
>>130567213>using *ppl* productsyou did this to yourself by being retarded anon, never buy *ppl*
>>130567672So based
>>130567213>>130567260I was like this once. You need to learn how to not instantly piss your diaper and throw a tantrum when faced with computer problems. It makes it way easier.
>>130567213>go to itunes library>select all>drag to music folder in windows explore>uninstall itunes>install foobar>set foobar library to music folder
>>130567213wait. WAIT.iTunes, not Apple Music? are you trying to listen to a library of local files and your media player is trying to get you to sign into some online shit? please tell me thats not whats happening. because if it is, thats the shittest shit Ive ever heard in my life.

>>130567213>HOW DO I GET THIS TO STOPdon't use itunesactually abstain from using anything named with I- affix it's good for u and not let you become a whining faggot
>>130567213use vlc retard
>>130567213it took me literally years to learn how to stop having this fucking thing.i can't rememver how i did it though :Dit was something really dumb, like deleting a preferences file or whatever.
>>130567213I deal with the same problem. I've accepted the fact that it will never be solved.
>>130569436iTunes can play files that are on your computer, but if you buy a song or album in iTunes it won't release it into your computer's file manager. Instead it's held hostage by iTunes and associated with your iCloud account, so you need to sign in at access and pay music bought from the iTunes Store.
>>130572899>buy music with actual literal physical money>only get conditional access to it under tightly prescribed circumstanceswhy do people accept this shit
I thought Apple Music replaced iTunes?
I'm still on iTunes 10
