Macbook Air Apple Music

| Posted on by



My Apple Music playlists and music have stopped working on my Macbook Air. I am running iTunes 12.6.1 and macOS Sierra 10.12.4 and don't know what is wrong. All music I have purchased is still accessible but anything added through Apple Music doesn't play (they aren't greyed out). It either stays loading or skips to the next song. To explore the Apple Music User Guide, click Table of Contents at the top of the page, or enter a word or phrase in the search field. If you need more help, visit the Music Support website. Not all features and content are available in all countries or regions. Apple Music is available on your Mac. Streaming Internet radio stations have their place and are great. But Apple (like many of its industry rivals) curates its own streaming radio stations for your listening pleasure. The result is the radio portion of the Apple Music service, which you can get to by clicking the Radio tab in iTunes.

Apple may provide or recommend responses as a possible solution based on the information provided; every potential issue may involve several factors not detailed in the conversations captured in an electronic forum and Apple can therefore provide no guarantee as to the. I have been using my trusty mid-2013 MacBook Air 13 with an i7, 8GB Ram and 256GB SSD since its introduction. Having produced several albums and videos of my music, as well as of colleagues and friends of different complexities in my home studio and on location, this machine has never let me down.

Hi, as always, it depends. Let me devide this into two topics:


1. You should use an external audio interface at least if you want to play live due to latency of the internal sound cards of each MacBook.


2. If a MacBook Air is suitable depends on the complexity of the sounds and effects you want to use. Playing a single piano sound might work but if you use additional effects and more sounds in parallel you might come into trouble.


I use a MacBook Pro 15“ what is also recommend by Apple and run several sounds and effects in parallel, e.g. two instances of Omnisphere 2, Valhalla Shimmer on a reverb Bus and Steinbergs The Grand 3 as Piano sound. From observable CPU usage I would say this will not work on a MacBook Air.

How powerful the CPU should be depends also on the sample buffer you set. The smaller the sample buffer the higher the necessary CPU usage and lower the latency. The larger the sample buffer, the lower the necessary CPU usage but Aldo the higher the latency.


One last important thing. An Intel Core i7 in the MacBook Air or MacBook Pro 13“ is a 2-Core Version. Only the MacBook Pro 15“ has a real quad-core CPU!
