[Update: Apple’s system status board has been updated to acknowledge the blip and note the issue is over.]
If you’re having issues getting started with Apple Music this morning, you’re not alone. The iOS app started the day by asking subscribers to sign up and join Apple Music (a force quit fixed for me but the problem persists) and iTunes on the Mac is also serving up error messages for a great number of users.
At the time of writing, Apple’s system status page hasn’t been updated to reflect any issues, but that usually happens a bit after the problem is recognized if at all. We’ll keep an eye on the status and update accordingly, but rest assured that if you’re a subscriber being asked to join again that it’s not just you and there’s a widespread hiccup in progress.

I am not sure what is happening, but I, several times a week, get a white screen with nothing but a text line saying “An Error Occurred” and nothing I can do to fix it.
I also get this issue all the time. Also last week it asked me which genres and artists I like, just as if I had signed up for the first time (I’ve been signed up since launch). Also since signing up I’ve found that songs from albums I’ve purchased from iTunes disappeared (iTunes Match ).. Sadly no feedback from Apple.
