Hello, jamesfromshalimar!


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities!


I see from your post that you're having an issue with your Apple Watch not syncing music from your iPhone. When you try, it seems to hang with your iPhone saying it's "waiting".


Does your Apple Watch give you an error messages?


Is your Apple Watch within range of your iPhone when you try to add music?


On your iPhone, is Bluetooth turned on?


Have you tried restarting both your iPhone and your Apple Watch? Some issues can be easily resolved by restarting:


Restart your iPhone


How to restart your Apple Watch


If the issue continues to persist after restarting both devices, try unpairing and re-pairing your Apple Watch with your iPhone by following the steps in these articles:


Unpair and erase your Apple Watch


I hope this information helps you!


Cheers.
