Lost all playlist by changing country or region

Hi,

I've lost all my playlist trying to listen to a song a friend has send. Trying to listen to it, it appear a message to change my country or region and this erase all my playlist. Now it only appear the name of them. Trying to change my country requieres to cancel my subscription and this eliminates my library, but my music is still on my Mac. So please, does someone knows how to recover it on my cellphone?

To get back to your region and sign out of the other country:

Do all this in the order it’s listed



Next ...

  • Launch Settings 
  • Tap on General.
  • Tap on Language & Region near the bottom.
  • Tap on Region
  • Select your home region.



Next .....

in Settings- iTunes App Store - your name - sign in 


Next .....

Open the music app 

Tap on the For you Tab-

Tap on your profile in upper right corner

Scroll down to .view Apple ID - Sign iOut - Sign back  in 


Now to restore your Apple Music:


Turn iCloud Music Library off, then on again - Or just turn it on if it was off, then go to step 4

On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:

  1. Go to Settings > Music, then tap iCloud Music Library to turn it off.
