Anyone experiencing trouble with the App Store or Apple Music on Monday can relax. Apple reports that it resolved the issues that plagued these services earlier in the day.

This is after they were down for about eight hours.

Apple Music and the App Store have issues

A check of Apple’s official System Status page shows both the App Store and Apple Music, which were previously listed as having “issues,” have been changed to “available.” Earlier in the day, the note for each said, “Users may be experiencing a problem with this service.”

In addition, the status page reports that Apple Pay and Apple Wallet suffered problems Sunday. These are also resolved.

While not exactly common, problems with Apple’s services happen more than anyone would like. Quite a few of them went offline in March 2022, for example. That’s just a month before Monday’s issues.

Note: We updated the article after Apple reported that both previously malfunctioning services were fixed.
