I have been trying for weeks to share my Apple Music songs to my Instagram as a story. However, I keep getting the same error message when I go to Share Song... > Instagram icon. I have attached the error message below. I keep updating both apps and it’s always the same. Please help!
As usual this thread is also full of arrogant answers by perceived "experts" who are giving less than a minute of thought before typing their responses. How exactly is sharing a link to Apple Music track is violation of copyright? What do you mean when you say "rights to share"? How do I attain that? Apple Music's own share system allows me to copy links to individual tracks, albums and playlist, sharing it with a fellow Apple Music user is a violation? Where is it written?
You have no idea how good this feedback can be for Apple. Spotify has great integration with Instagram for long, that allows "sharing" music right from Spotify to Instagram stories with rich content and custom UI. Apple Music could benefit from the same, as people love sharing what they are playing. Instagram also has a "Music" option in their story composer which apparently is not rolled out to all regions yet and that's why we are getting an error from Instagram, and that is the correct answer for OP.
But looking at the responses here, all this discussion is falling on deaf ears.
You can't use Apple Music tracks this way. You don't have the right to share.
“Sharing” Apple Music content is just a text weblink that redirects to a specific entry in the Music app or iTunes, where it will be highlighted. Non-subscribers can’t use it at all.
I have the same problem too. Let me know if yours is solved pls!
All my friends can share them just fine.
After performing the latest software updated (13.1.2) it appears as though the option to share Apple Music songs (links) to Instagram isn’t available anymore...
So funny thing is... a couple weeks ago this DID work now it doesn’t. Even funnier I am the artist and composer of the music I’m trying to post and own 100% of the rights... care to explain that? Lol
I’m having the same issue. So sad only Spotify users can share their music. Any solution yet? :(
But what if you do have the rights because it’s your music and this still happens ?

Again, you would need to ask Instagram. It is their system that is detecting the Music track, and acting on it.
Okay, sounds good.
I appreciate the clarification and your help.
Is this true?
He is talking about sharing the song a story on Instagram not the actual song. Just like you can do in Spotify.
No, he is not. Just enter on a song in Music and try to share that you will see. No error to share on Facebook, error to share on Instagram.
i have the same problem too today :(
