Hello! I am having trouble setting start times for songs when using the ApplicationMusicPlayer. When I initialize a new MusicPlayer.Queue.Entry using the following constructor, I am seeing strange results: init( _ playableMusicItem: PlayableMusicItem, startTime: TimeInterval? = nil, endTime: TimeInterval? = nil ) It appears that any value I provide for startTime is also applied to the endTime. For example: MusicPlayer.Queue.Entry(playable, startTime: TimeInterval(30), endTime: TimeInterval(183)) provides the following console output: MusicPlayer.Queue.Entry(id: "3D6A3DA3-595E-4657-8DBA-DDD245BBB7EF", transientItem: PlayableMusicItem, startTime: 30.0, endTime: 30.0) I have also tried setting the endTime to nil with the same result. Does anyone have any experience setting start times for songs using the MusicKit ApplicationMusicPlayer? Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

I am trying to offer my users a wide variety of playlists, like Apple Music does in the "explore" section. I fetched the charting playlists for the current storefront, but that's as far as I get. For example, I fetch the top charts genres first. If a user selects a genre I want to display the playlists for this genre, so I call the charts endpoint with the genre as the id but I can't get a response. path = "/v1/catalog/\(storefrontID)/charts" components.queryItems = [ URLQueryItem(name: "types", value: "playlists"), URLQueryItem(name: "chart", value: "most-played") ] if let id = id { let genreQuery = URLQueryItem(name: "genre", value: id) components.queryItems?.append(genreQuery) } Even weirder, I get exactly one genre "Musik" (which isn't a genre) with identifier "34" and storefrontId "de" where it works and I get my playlists. All other genre return empty responses. I try to use AppleMusic API with MusicKit as an addition, but there doesn't seem to be a solution for this problem either.

Hi there, I have a related forum thread here and a Feedback Assistant ticket open, but this issue seems different. Sometime within the last 2-3 weeks, code related to MusicLibrary has stopped working. None of my code has changed. For example, the below two snippets used to work fine:  for track in newTracks {    try await MusicLibrary.shared.add(track, to: targetPlaylist)  } try await MusicLibrary.shared.edit(targetPlaylist, items: items) newTracks and items are both fetched using: try await targetPlaylist.with(.tracks, preferredSource: .catalog).tracks Using preferredSource: .catalog was a workaround used to address the issue in the aforementioned post above. All iOS 16 capable functions are decorated with: @available(iOS 16, *) or in an if block: if #available(iOS 16, *) {... What's happening is that the following is showing up in the console: 2022-11-28 23:31:11.279648+0700 MyApp[38653:6736450] [core] Attempted to register account monitor for types client is not authorized to access: {(     "com.apple.account.iTunesStore" )} 2022-11-28 23:31:11.279718+0700 MyApp[38653:6736450] [Default] <ICUserIdentityStoreACAccountBackend: 0x282adb520> Failed to register for account monitoring. err=Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=7 "(null)" 2022-11-28 23:31:11.279758+0700 MyApp[38653:6736450] [Default] ICUserIdentity - Unable to retrieve DSID for userIdentity=<ICUserIdentity 0x2806eb120: [Active Account: <unresolved>]> - error=Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=7 "(null)" These errors are not caught by a do/catch block, but I assume they are related to the issue, and I believe they have to do with MyApp trying to access things that Music Kit thinks it's not supposed to. For example, if MyApp attempts to work with a playlist that it did not create, errors would be expected, thrown errors. The thing is that I know I'm working with resources that are created by MyApp. In fact, in trying to test this, I just tried to create a playlist with the below, and the same behavior is occurring: @available(iOS 16, *) func createPlaylist2(name: String, description: String) async -> MusicKit.Playlist? {     do {         Logger.log(.info, "Creating Playlist: \(name)")         Logger.log(.shrug, "Does this work?")         let newPlaylist = try await MusicLibrary.shared.createPlaylist(name: name, description: description) // <= Things stop here!         Logger.log(.success, "New playlist created: \(newPlaylist)") // <= this isn't logged.         return newPlaylist // <= nothing is returned     } catch {         Logger.log(.error, "Could not create new playlist: \(error)") // <= no error logged.     }     return nil } The result is: 2022-11-29 00:15:01.875064+0700 MyApp[38794:6760471] [core] Attempted to register account monitor for types client is not authorized to access: {(     "com.apple.account.iTunesStore" )} 2022-11-29 00:15:01.875372+0700 MyApp[38794:6760471] [Default] <ICUserIdentityStoreACAccountBackend: 0x283005720> Failed to register for account monitoring. err=Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=7 "(null)" 2022-11-29 00:15:01.876677+0700 MyApp[38794:6760323] [EntityQuery] Finished executing query in 0.000999928s 2022-11-29 00:15:01.889055+0700 MyApp[38794:6760323] [EntityQuery] Finished fetching results in 0.0120001s 2022-11-29 00:15:01.891235+0700 MyApp[38794:6760329] [core] Attempted to register account monitor for types client is not authorized to access: {(     "com.apple.account.iTunesStore" )} 2022-11-29 00:15:01.891684+0700 MyApp[38794:6760329] [Default] <ICUserIdentityStoreACAccountBackend: 0x283005720> Failed to register for account monitoring. err=Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=7 "(null)" 📘 Creating Playlist: TEST PLAYLIST 🤷🏻‍♀️ Does this work? 2022-11-29 00:15:06.697374+0700 MyApp[38794:6760329] [] nw_path_necp_check_for_updates Failed to copy updated result (22) What's really nasty is that errors are not thrown, so they can't be caught and handled in a catch block.

Any help would be most appreciated. @JoeKhun: Did I miss the memo?

Hey All I've been looking at adding a visual representation of the song's first genre in my app and therefor was wondering if there's a list available somewhere of all the Genre's available in MusicKit and their IDs e.g. Genre(id: "21", name: "Rock", parent: Genre(id: "34", name: "Music")) So my questions: Is there a list of all IDs? Are these IDs the same in every country? The reason why I would want this is to have my visuals be safe for localization. For example: If I'd call my asset icon-electronic and then localize my app in dutch it would ask for icon-electronisch. I hope this makes sense and I hope I don't have to browse and save a list of all Genre's by hand haha

In my Developer account under Certificates, Identifiers &amp; Profiles --&gt; Keys, I cannot add the "Media Services (MusicKit, ShazamKit) key. I have an app identifier where the "MusicKit" App Service is selected. How can I get the key to be available for this app?

Hello everyone! I am using the web version of the Apple Music Kit API, and similar to how Apple is able to produce a user's year in rewind playlist showing the most played artists/songs from a year, I am trying to replicate it for either a year or all time. I have been searching the internet for days trying to figure it out, but I've been completely stuck. I am able to make the following HTTP request successfully. GET https://api.music.apple.com/v1/me/library/songs/ which returns back the user's library of songs, but I haven't figured out how to get the play count. I have tried adding a query like such ?extend=playCount, but that doesn't work. I can see here that the Swift Music Kit API is able to extend a play count property, but I haven't been able to figure it out for Web. Ideally, I am looking for an endpoint that just shows a user's top artist/tracks similar to Spotify, however, whenever I try to use the heavy in rotation endpoint here, it always returns an empty array. The way that I have described is the long-roundabout way where I'll have to fetch each individual song and sort by playCount. But if anyone happens to know how I can do either of the options I've described, it will be truly appreciated ! I've seen other forums posts from years ago, but hopefully there's been a discovered way. Thank you!

I'm making a request to get 10 artists with their top songs at once, but for some artists it will always fail with a 504. The response is also in HTML which leads to a decoding error. This is my code var request = MusicCatalogResourceRequest<Artist>(matching: \.id, memberOf: ids) request.properties = properties let response = try await request.response() where ids is MusicItemId. Below I have an input which will always fail 100% of the time, even when retried. 10 elements  - 0 : "51639"  - 1 : "331584"  - 2 : "120199"  - 3 : "45058"  - 4 : "284786497"  - 5 : "44984"  - 6 : "37299"  - 7 : "518462"  - 8 : "39525"  - 9 : "73568" Example response: [DataRequesting] Failed to parse body of response with status code Unknown (504):  <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head>   <style>     body {       font-family: "Helvetica Neue", "HelveticaNeue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;       font-size: 15px;       font-weight: 200;       line-height: 20px;       color: #4c4c4c;       text-align: center;     }     .section {       margin-top: 50px;     }   </style> </head> <body> <div class="section">   <h1>&#63743;</h1>   <h3>Gateway Timeout</h3>   <p>Correlation Key: WFRI6Q5HXAUJYXGNRKQ6YTBYIM</p> </div> </body> </html> I have also tried batching these into 2 requests of 5 artists instead of 1 request of 10 artists which still fails. However, I do have sets of 10 artists that work fine. Anyone know why?

Hello there! I have a problem: when i create Music User Token via AppleMusicKit, it returns me token that expires after one or two days. But regarding to this threads - https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/654814 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/685343 it should expire in 6 months! Do I need to consider something when creating a token so that its lifetime will be 6 months and not 2 days? Maybe something with developer token or with MusicKit? Maybe something in apple account? p.s. i tried to find solution of this problem in internet and noticed that many other people have such problem too. And no one got any answers expect that token should live 6 months.

Hi, I’m looking at using MusicKit in my watchOS app however I don’t seem to have any method of being able to play the audio though the recommended use of MPMusicPlayerController since it isn’t available on watchOS. This method works fine for iOS and iPadOS but not watchOS which seems bizarre considering we have full access to MusicKit but no way to actually play any audio. I’m trying to build an app that includes Apple Music through MusicKit but don’t have any way to actually play the audio. Is there a technical reason for this and if so is there any other way to play audio from MusicKit on watchOS. The docs for MPMusicPlayerController can be found here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/mediaplayer/mpmusicplayercontroller

Hi, . As my understading, I know that id: MusicItemID The unique identifier for the song. Threfore, I want to try to retreive the specific song I want by using MusicItemID : let request = MusicCatalogResourceRequest<Song>(matching: \.id, equalTo: //MusicItemID) let response = try await request.response() guard let song = response.items.first else { return } However, where can I find the MusicItemID for the song I want ? Thank you so much

I'm using applicationQueuePlayer in my application. I set Queue for it and it plays music. It was working fine in the app installed on my phone, but after phone was updated to iOS 16.4 it stopped working (see errors below). When I remove app from phone and recompiled and re-installed it to that phone, player started working normally. But when I replaced container via Xcodes Device and Simulators to previously saved - it stopped working again. Re-installing it on top of existing didn't fix it. It was only working if removed from phone completely and then installed from Xcode "from scratched". This started happening after phone update to 16.4. When I installed app "from scratch" - it was working fine, but when 16.4.1 was release couple of days ago and I installed it on a phone, it again broke the applicationQueuePlayer in my app. Same thing - removing app from phone and installing from scratch from Xcode makes it work, but restoring old container via Devices and Simulators breaks it again. I presume it has something to do with entitlements, but can't find any notes or info. Please help!

iTunes for Windows used to offer a COM interface and an additional VBScript interface. What does Music app for Windows offer (the preview is currently available in the Windows app store)? Here are a couple of more detailed points I am mainly concerned about: Is there a documented API somewhere? Where? What's the recommended technology to interact with the Music app on Windows? VBScript and the like are great for manipulating individual tracks, but usually are a little slow, when one wants to get data about the whole library. So is there a fast way of accessing/reading data (like the iTunes Library framework on macOS)? Can one access Apple Music via COM at all, even though the app is downloaded from the Windows app store (sandboxing)? Thanks for your help. (see also https://apple.stackexchange.com/q/459392/62735, if you want to earn Stack Overflow rep points)

Hi, I'm developing a web app that integrates various widgets into a single page to boost users productivity. I would like to link to integrate Apple Music too using the MusicKit JS SDK. I'll monetize the web app through monthly subscriptions. There they get access to all the widgets. So my question is whether it is allowed? If not, is there any other way I can still give my users ability to play Apple Music from the web app? Thanks

My application's music/media player is defined in my app as: @State var musicPlayer = MPMusicPlayerController.applicationMusicPlayer I want to change the playback rate and increase it slightly, but I'm unsure how to do this. The documentation is here which states it's part of the MPMediaPlayback protocol but I'm unsure how I can get this to work together. I tried doing the following: self.musicPlayer.currentPlaybackRate(1.2) But I just get the following error: Cannot call value of non-function type 'Float' When I play a song (self.musicPlayer.play()), how can I set the playback rate at the same time please?

Hello everyone, I'm currently working on some projects in React that involve using MusicKit on the web. However, I've been having some trouble finding a package that works with React. I've noticed that there's a beta version of MusicKit for web available, but I'm not sure if Apple has released an npm package for it yet. If there isn't an npm package available, is it still possible to use MusicKit on the web using just HTML and JavaScript? I'd appreciate any guidance or advice on how to get started with this. Thank you in advance for your help! Best regards.

Dear Apple Engineers, I would like to make a request for an extra flag within the Playlist struct. This flag would serve to indicate whether the artwork my app receives for a playlist is a custom image uploaded by the user or a standard 4-image collage consisting of the first 4 songs. The purpose of this flag is to enable us to display a filter in the table view of our app, specifically showing playlists that do not have a custom user image. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I'm developing a flutter app and using https://pub.dev/packages/music_kit to leverage MusicKit to handle the initial user permission request and generating the userToken. I then need to make requests to the Apple Music API from my server through a background task to retrieve the user's heavy rotation information which is used to recommend events. The initial authorization works as expected and generates a developer token and user token, but when I use the developer token and user token in a get request to https://api.music.apple.com/v1/me/storefront it returns a 403 error "Invalid authentication". I can't seem to figure out what's causing this as I'm using the user token generated from MusicKit, I also test the developer token and it works on non-user specific api end points, so it's a correct developer token. Are user tokens generated by the MusicKit swift code only able to be used in MusicKit calls in the app? Also when making a status request through MusicKit I get "MusicAuthorizationStatus.authorized(musicUserToken: null)" which seems strange as I would assume the token that's returned would be included in the status if it's including the parameter musicUserToken. The account being connected is on a 1 month free trial at the moment if that makes a difference.

I fetch user recommendations using the dedicated endpoint: var requestURLComponents = URLComponents() requestURLComponents.scheme = "https" requestURLComponents.host = "api.music.apple.com" requestURLComponents.path = "/v1/me/recommendations" guard let url = requestURLComponents.url else { return } let request = MusicDataRequest(urlRequest: URLRequest(url: url)) let response = try await request.response() Personal recommended stations (user station and "... and similar artists") were included in the result until a few weeks ago, and now I can't see them anymore. Is there a way to include the recommended stations again?
