Hello Michael, I am sorry to hear about your Dad and please accept my sincere condolences. —— Refer back to my reply to WAMUG regarding your Subject: Re: iTunes From: Ronda Brown <ro...@mac.com> Subject: Re: ITunes Date: 13 October 2016 at 10:43:09 pm AWST To: wamug@wamug.org.au Reply-To: wamug@wamug.org.au In which I explained what you most likely had done, Apple didn’t remove your music without you enabling a new feature. You have not responded to that email to the mailing list, so there has been no follow up on your issue.

Re: Responding to Complaints, Apple Drops Adapter and Monitor Prices
Good. Will Apple also restore to my iPhone and computer all the music I accumulated over the years, only some of which I purchased via iTunes. I spent 6 days at my father's side as he was dying. He was tormented. Music that he knew soothed him. My choice was extremely limited because d was in a nursing home in NZ which didn't provide wireless connection to the internet. This meant I couldn't play for him music that he loved. Thank you Apple for ensuring that he missed out. How dare you remove from my Apple equipment music that you did not supply, and music that I paid for?

Hi people, Bit of better news from Apple...
