Sync ITunes with IPhone

When I click on IPhone icon in upper left of ITunes screen, then click on Summary below, then on Music, the window does not appear to the imediate right (as per Help instructions) that would allow me to select and check music selections to be synced. The message that appears simply says "the ICloud Music Library is On", with no further options except to sync voice memos. I can go no farther. What's the solution to continue sync process with IPhone?

On your device use Settings > Music > Sync Library > Off. Of course if your have iTunes Match or Apple Music then you should really be using the Sync Library option (aka iCloud Music Library) in both iTunes and your device, so that content that you add to your iTunes library is automatically available to the device without syncing over USB. It should appear with cloud links that allow it to be downloaded, or you can stream from the cloud.
