Nov 25, 2015 11:45 AM in response to konstantinos250by mario49,★HelpfulGreetings konstantinos250,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. It seems like you want to download music and listen to it without being connected to the internet. I would recommend you read this article, it may be able to help troubleshoot the issue.
Save songs, albums, and playlists to listen to offline
You can save songs, albums, or playlists to listen to when you're not connected to the Internet.* You must save songs, albums, or playlists on each device that you want to use for offline listening.
*You can save music offline on up to 10 devices. These songs are accessible only during your Apple Music membership.
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
- In the Music app, find the item that you want to save.
- Tap the More Options icon
to the right of the song, album, or playlist name. - Tap Make Available Offline.
Songs and albums appear under My Music > Library. Playlists appear under My Music > Playlists.
On your Mac or PC
- In iTunes, find the item that you want to save in the My Music or Playlists tab. You can't save items to listen to offline from the iTunes Store.
- Click the cloud icon to the right of the song's name, on the album cover, or to the right of the playlist's name.
Songs and albums appear under the My Music tab. Playlists appear in the Playlists tab, under Apple Music Playlists in the sidebar.
View just songs, albums, and playlists that you saved to listen to offline
- iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch: In the My Music tab, tap Library. Then tap any of the different views (Artists, Albums, etc.), and turn on Only Offline Music. A message that says "Showing only music on this [device]. Show All Music." appears at the top of the screen. Tap Show All Music to see all of your music.
- Mac: In iTunes, from the menu bar at the top of your computer screen, choose View > Only Offline Music. A message that says "Showing only music on this computer. Show all music." appears at the top of the screen. Click "Show all music" to see all of your music.
- Windows: Hold down the Control and B keys on your keyboard to open the iTunes menu bar. Choose View > Only Offline Music. A message that says "Showing only music on this computer. Show all music." appears at the top of the screen. Click "Show all music" to see all of your music.
Take care

Nov 25, 2015 11:56 AM in response to konstantinos250by mario49,Hello konstantinos250,
So you are able to see music you have already purchased, but you want to see the Apple Music catalog.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day. -
Nov 25, 2015 3:21 PM in response to mario49by swandy,Mario49 - do you actually read the posts or don't you have a clue before responding???
He has an iPhone 3GS running iOS 6.1.6, so Apple Music is not his issue.

Nov 25, 2015 3:23 PM in response to konstantinos250by swandy,Mario - since you have an older iPhone and have not updated to iOS above 6.1.6, you don't have access to Apple Music or the iCloud Music Library that Mario's response makes reference to.
However, you should still be able to sync music from your computer to your iPhone the old way using a USB cable and then be able to play the music that you synced to the iPhone without any need for Wifi.

Nov 27, 2015 4:28 AM in response to swandyby konstantinos250,so the only way to listen music offline is with the music app and transfer music via itunes?
-
Nov 27, 2015 1:09 PM in response to konstantinos250by swandy,Yes, because the older versions of iTunes/Music app cannot access Apple Music (and iCloud Music Library). The only way is the "old" way to sync and transfer music via iTunes. (Not sure if the version of iTunes that you have already had iTunes Radio or not.)
Not sure if your older iPhone is eligible to be upgraded to a later version of iOS so that you can use the newer version of the Music app. Apple Music was introduced in iOS 8.4.
