Hi, I would suggest that if you have an album that won’t play, you should delete it from your library and upload it again. Of course, you would need to still have the original. Robert Carter > On Mar 7, 2020, at 10:48 AM, Anders Holmberg wrote: > > Hi! > I actually have had very bad luck

Hi, In my testing I've found that when asking to play albums that are not in Apple Music, say something like "Play album Natural from my Library". This worked perfectly for an obscure album that I've ripped and made part of my library. Didn't bother with saying the artist name as it was in

Hi! Since my siri is set to swedish i have to speak english as its spelled in Swedish. There are some albums that just works with no problem. If i say play british steal it just plays that album. But if you’re not a metal fan don’t try that at home as you might blow your ears or your speakers.

The only one I have problems with is asking Siri to play The BEE Gees,it always plays The Feelers instead. Don’t even think one could blame my Kiwi accent on that one as I don’t think The BEE Gees and the feelers sound anything alike as far as a name goes. > On 5/03/2020, at 11:28, Anders
