Hi,
Nothing ever "disappears" from your devices. What happens with Apple Music is
that an iCloud Music Library is created on your behalf. So all your content,
including playlists is copied up to iCloud for syncing across all your devices.
So, copies of the music you've ripped are either
Hi,
I'd check the drivers for your burner. The stock DVD Player app on your Mac
should work just fine. The Apple USB Super Drive often works better and is
needed to boot from DVDs, but you should be able to play them just fine with a
third party device.

Hi Tim,
Question from the back of the class.
You say that if a title exists in Apple music, that instead of uploading
your ripped edition, that title simply becomes usable and downloadable
for you. How exact is this choice?
For example if you rip Ticket to ride by the carpenters from your

Hi Karen,
The easy answer is, "Sort of". Apple Music is far from perfect. As far as I
can tell, it does a comparison of the title, the artist, the time and some
digital comparisons to match things. The digital comparisons are to ensure
that the song is actually what you say it is. We

Regarding whether iTunes recognizes a CD or not, usually does not have anything
to do with the seller of the CD. If the seller in question created their own,

all they did is burn cheap copies of it and passed

Hi,
I'd say that it might be a combination of both. The 4 GB is pretty much the
minimum that Mojave can handle. Combine that with a slower processor, and you
will find things a little slower. Also, if you've just done the upgrade, give
your Mac about 24 hours or so to index everything and
Mojave, compared to Yosemite, has a lot more going on behind the screen.
