cupertino Important online services were suspended for an hour on Monday Apple– Annoyed customer. Among other things, the App Store, streaming services Apple Music and Apple TV+ as well as the podcast platform and iTunes Store were not accessible to download various content, as the iPhone Group’s System Status page showed. The mistake was corrected only more than two hours after the first user reported it.

There was initially no official information on possible causes. According to information from financial services Bloomberg, Apple explained the disruption internally with DNS problems. The DNS (Domain Name System) system ensures that computers are associated with web addresses. DNS configuration errors are often the cause of disruptions.

According to Bloomberg, Apple’s internal systems were also disrupted, meaning some of the company’s employees were also unable to work. Apple’s e-mail service, map service and iMessage chat service at times did not work for users.
