iTunes Match and Apple Music both allow you to sync your tracks to iCloud Music Library, where you can stream and download them to any iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple TV without having to take up physical storage space.
Apple Watch 5; Ios 13; iPhone 11 Pro Max; Iphone 11; iPhone 11 Pro; Primary Menu. Search for: Search. Photos for Mac. Photos not syncing to iMac. If I take a picture with my iPhone it automatically appeared on my iMac and iPad. Now it is just going to the iPad and not the iMac. I have turned on/off devices; on/off photos in.
While both services are incredibly convenient when they work, they aren't completely error-proof either. Whether they're hanging up while trying to sync, or your music isn't showing up on your iPhone or iPad, here are some steps you can take to try and remedy your issue.
Apple Music Subscription
Apple Music is Apple's massive music service, comprising a subscription music catalog, iCloud Music Library syncing across your devices, Beats 1 live and algorithmic radio, customized playlists, and more artist exclusives than you can shake a stick at.
Oct 16, 2018 Apple Music Not Syncing to iPod Shuffle/iPod Nano Coincidentally, Apple Music not syncing issue happens on iPod shuffle/iPod nano as well. Neither iPod shuffle/iPod nano can access Wi-Fi nor use Apple Music app, and as a result, nothing you can do to answer the alert message 'Apple Music songs cannot be copied to an iPod.'
This app distinguishes itself with its reliability, ease of use, speed, and with a true '2-way sync' that merges changes made to both your Gmail & Mac contacts. This is the #1 app for syncing Google contacts with Mac both in terms of downloads & reviews. Also of significance, this app syncs contact groups with Google.
Aug 16, 2019 Sign in and out of iTunes on your Mac. If simply turning iCloud Music Library itself off and then back on doesn't seem to fix the issue, try signing out of iTunes completely on all your devices, including your Mac or PC. Then sign back in and try syncing your iCloud Music Library again. Open iTunes on your Mac. Click Account in the Menu bar. Sep 30, 2017 I've had this problem since before iOS11, so not sure if it's 11-specific, but I don't have or use Apple Music at all. I have manually synced all my playlists/music from iTunes over to my iPhone (6s), but I noticed that many songs in my playlist have that little 'download' icon, as if they are not.
Check iCloud's service status
Sometimes Apple does routine maintenance on specific iCloud services. If you're getting stuck with iCloud Music Library giving you an endless 'Sending information to Apple' error, this is most likely the reason. Before trying to log in, log out, or troubleshoot elsewhere, try checking Apple's Services, Stores, and iCloud system status website.
If the indicator next to Apple Music, iTunes Match, and iTunes in the Cloud is green and you're still having trouble, try the next step listed below. If it's showing up as yellow or red, Apple may be doing a system update; check the status page again later.
Turn iCloud Music Library on and off on all iOS devices
If you're missing a bunch of music that should be there, turning it on and off again in Settings could resolve the issue.
Open Settings.
Tap Music.
Tap the iCloud Music Library switch to turn it to the 'off' position.
Turn back On the option for iCloud Music Library.
Tap Keep Music or Delete & Replace.
Launch the Music app on your iPhone or iPad.
If you still aren't seeing the music you want synced, there may be a problem with iTunes. Continue on to the next step to try and resolve it.
Update iCloud Music Library within iTunes
Even though iCloud should update itself regularly, there are occasions that it doesn't happen for one reason or another. Before trying anything else within iTunes, try updating your iCloud Music Library manually.
Open iTunes.
Click File.
Hover your cursor over Library.
Click Update iCloud Music Library.
Turn iCloud Music Library on and off in iTunes
If you absolutely want to force iCloud Music Library to re-sync all your music, turning it on and off is the way to go. I'd recommend this step for anyone who is experiencing freezes or hangups when trying to sync with iTunes Match or Apple Music, especially if you've already tried all the above steps. Just be aware that your whole library may have to be scanned again and, depending upon its size, this could take hours or even days.
Open iTunes on your Mac.
Click iTunes in the Menu bar.
Click Preference.
Click the checkbox next to iCloud Music Library to uncheck it.
Click the checkbox again to re-check it.
Sign in and out of iTunes on your Mac
If simply turning iCloud Music Library itself off and then back on doesn't seem to fix the issue, try signing out of iTunes completely on all your devices, including your Mac or PC. Then sign back in and try syncing your iCloud Music Library again.
Open iTunes on your Mac.
Click Account in the Menu bar.
Click Sign Out to sign out of your iTunes/Apple Music account.
Click Account in the Menu bar again.
Click Sign In….
Sign in to your account.
