Except that if you want the Move to do things other than play music, you'll have to use Alexa. That may not matter to you, but I prefer not to, so would rather control everything using Siri. Cheers, Donna > On Dec 1, 2019, at 6:33 PM, Simon A Fogarty wrote: > > Hi Donna and all, > > The more

Hi Mary, I would probably just delete the stereo pair, and then re-create it. A pain, I know, but better that than having to do it twice. As for the restart, it's not perfect but it did help. I still think there are some issues on Apple's end. There's still one album that absolutely will not
