In the previous show, Lee took you on a tour of Apple Music and showed you how to discover music, create playlists and make the most of Apple's streaming service.  In this tip video, he builds on this knowledge and shows some examples of how you can use Shortcuts to play music quicker by using your voice.Lee continues by demonstrating how to build shortcuts that can dynamically create new playlists every time you run them.  Finally, you learn how to get to some of the most popular Apple Music shortcuts found in the Shortcuts Gallery right on your Home Screen or Control Centre, ready for you to trigger with a tap.Apple Music requires iOS and iPadOS 13 or newer, and macOS 10.9.5 or newer.

It's been almost 10 years since Apple Music landed and we've yet to cover this popular streaming service on ScreenCastsONLINE.  As music is a pet passion of Lee's, he decided it was time to right that wrong and walk you through how to make the most of your subscription.In this video, there is a lot of time spent on the iPad as both the iPad and iPhone versions of the Music app are very similar.  On these devices, you'll learn a variety of ways to search for music, both new and old, as well as create playlists, manage queues, collaborate with others on shared playlists, and much more.The Mac version is also covered in this video, and whilst the premise of discovering and playing back music is largely the same, macOS offers more functionality, such as creating Playlist Folders, Smart Playlists, as well as making changes to your music's metadata. By the end of this video, you'll have a firm grasp on all that Apple Music has to offer.

When Apple transitioned away from iTunes to a series of application in macOS Catalina, the way you manage your media changed in several ways. We briefly covered these changes and new apps in the past, but we felt it was time to take a deeper dive.

In this screencast, Todd gives you a tour of each one, beginning with Music. He also goes over the Home app, which can help you manage your audio sources, such as HomePod and AirPlay 2 speakers.

Apple Music has now been out for a couple of months, and it’s still the cause of much frustration for some people.

There seems to be a deep misunderstanding of some of the core concepts, as well as a feeling that Apple is perhaps expecting too much of iTunes, by shoehorning too many features into this very old application.

In this show I’m going to try and dispel some of the FUD - that’s Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt, that seems to be prevalent, and try and explain in detail what Apple Music is, and how the various components work together.
