Transfer playlist in family plan

I have a family plan in Apple music. My daughter originally set up all of her playlists under my Apple ID. How can I transfer all of her playlists to her apple ID on our family plan and get them off of my Apple ID? I don't want her to have to start over because it is thousands of songs but I don't want to have to go through them to find my songs.

Unfortunately, you can’t. It is not possible to transfer content from one Apple ID to another.


What you can do, as a workaround, is to share (one or more) playlists to another user. Then the other user can save that list as their own playlist (to break the link with the original), by adding the content from that playlist to their own new playlist. And you can then delete the original list from your account, if the previous step was successful.

First try a small list to see it working, and also to minimize the risk if one of you makes a mistake.

Note that playlists are different from the iTunes Library. They can be part of it, but they could also be separate.
