Hey there DavidXR,

Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We understand you’re having issues using Apple Music as expected. We love the New Music and other features in Apple Music and will be happy to help with this.

For this issue, make sure macOS is up to date:

Then restart your Mac, check that you have a good internet connection, and try using Apple Music as expected again:

If this doesn’t have any impact on the issue, try accessing from a new user account and see if the issue is resolved there:

We hope this helps.

Take care.

Hey DavidXR,

To verify, did the issue occur in a new user account as well? This can help us determine if this is a system-wide issue or just something affecting your account. 

If it does happen in a new user account, boot your Mac into safe mode and see if the issue occurs there:

If it doesn’t happen in a new user account, reinstall macOS and see if this helps at all. While reinstalling should retain your user files, it’s a good idea to make a backup first, just in case:

Reinstall macOS

If this doesn’t help, tell us more about what happens when you click the albums links in your playlist.

As for your music preferences, there is no way to update those. As you listen to different artist and genres, Apple Music should identify your preferences over time.

Regards.
