Multiple Apple services, including Music, appear down for the second day in a row

Music lovers are feeling it

Downdetector.com, which tracks people's reports of issues with various online services has caught wind of this latest Apple outage and shows the Apple Music complaints in this stark chart. Notice that the complaints appear to reach their height at 6:00 PM ET.

Coming back

Some of the services that were reporting “Issues” as opposed to “Outages” are already coming back.

According to the Apple System Status page, Game Center, iCloud.com, and Weather have all had their issues resolved. Typically, if the status page is reporting that it's fixed, Apple customers are already happily using the apps and services again. 

Five down

The count for today's Apple Services is smaller, though with it including the App Store, perhaps no less impactful. The good news is that Apple seems to work quickly to restore these services. Yesterday, everything was back online after three hours.

Apple's services, including Podcasts, Music, Books, and the Mac App Store, are usually stable and reliable. Two outages in two days is unusual and we hope to learn more about the root cause.

TechRadar has contacted Apple for comment and will update this Live Blog with its response.
