Apple Music only plays previews on Windows laptop in Chrome

My music keeps playing previews of songs when i'm logged in to my Apple Music account via Chrome. I already tried to log out and log in again, cleared the cache, etc, but it doesn't work.



The music plays normally on my iPhone via the Apple Music app.


Does anybody know how this could be fixed?

Hey there JoeriMos,


That is a strange thing to occur, especially since you're signed into the same Apple ID on both devices for use with Apple Music. Let's start with ruling out some possible causes, along with confirming more details to better understand what's happening:


  1. You mentioned this occurs within Google Chrome, and we see you're using a Windows PC. When did this start to occur on your Windows PC?
  2. Have you tested a different browser for the same issue, like Mozilla Firefox, or even the built-in internet browser for Windows?
  3. Does this only occur with specific songs, or any songs you try playing in Apple Music using Google Chrome?
  4. Sometimes unexpected behavior can be resolved with a restart. Has one been tried yet for your Windows PC?
  5. Any updates from Microsoft available if you check for any now?


Cheers!

Hi Bruno75,


  1. It started this week, when I posted the previous message, because before then I was only playing music via the app on my iPhone.
  2. I'v tried in Chrome and just now in Safari on my Macbook as well and strangely enough it does work in Safari, but in Chrome it keeps playing previews of songs.
  3. Any song in Chrome.
  4. Yes, i've tried. I've tried via Chrome on my Macbook as well and the same issue occurs.
  5. There aren't any.
