Next time, don’t ping moderators, ping helpers (ONLY after you wait for at least 10-20 minutes, do NOT ping immediately after asking about your issue)

[indigo fossil]

sorry man

i dint know it would ping so many people 😭

[opaque parcel]

Moderators aren’t support

[indigo fossil]

aight

[opaque parcel]

@dusty thistle we should honestly make this a rule, been happening quite frequently

[indigo fossil]

😭

[timber bane]

why hide the build number it’s probably the most important thing and could be not supported for iTunes anymore

you are on 2009? build

[indigo fossil]

no

[indigo fossil]

i activated my windows by sum means so it says that

[indigo fossil]

i checked that as well

its up to date

and supported for itunes

[plain relic]

beuh

@glossy maple just checking but the timeout was cuz of the ping right?

[dusty thistle]

I mean it is a rule isn’t it

Ping helpers for help

They just don’t read the rules..

[opaque parcel]

Says nothing about the other roles

[dusty thistle]

True

[opaque parcel]

So just an addition to the already made rule

[indigo fossil]

for all the people i pinged i am extremely soryy

can we solve the above issue ?

please

is there anyother link i can try to download itunes?

[vast crypt]

Yes it might be a bad installation

[still terrace]

How is it a risk?

[indigo fossil]

I fucked up the install nd my 35% of data is lost
