@@JaceyFlames ya something got messed up with the original upload so I reuploaded it. They responded but it wasn’t helpful, they just told me how to get the artists app and paste the Apple Music link. They told me I’d it doesn’t help reply with a video of the problem which I just did. I should also note I did a name Change so I changed my name in distro but I heard it’d take like 8 months on apple so I just made a new distro and upload undwr a different account

[@JaceyFlames]

@@cap4303 Yeah, a lot of those changes effect your song and you being able to see it on stores. The stores take a while to receive changes and when there are multiple changes, it may negatively impact your music on other platforms.

Great channel, glad I came across your vid. I have an Apple ID that is my full name. If I claim an Apple for artists account can I use that to gain control of my artist profile and my name will not be showing anywhere? The reason I ask as my artist name will be different from my personal ID. Hope I explained myself well as I am very new to all of this! Will check out more of your channel thanks!

Yes, you can. You pick the name you want to be shown from your distribution platform (if you want it to be different).
