Music

Hello. I downloaded my music directly on iphone, not iCloud. Now this music requires synchronization with iCloud.

Why? And is possible to get back it without downloading new?

Some songs not downloading in lossless quality in Apple Music for iPhone I just noticed that some of the songs that I downloaded in my library aren't downloaded in lossless quality even though I have lossless downloads turned on. When I erase these songs from my library and stream them using internet they play in lossless quality, and the difference when listening to them is pretty noticeable. I've tried downloading these songs again after deleting them and being able to stream them with lossless audio, but they downloaded in bad quality again. Why is this happening? (In the first picture, a downloaded song, the lossless badge is missing. In the second pictured, the same song being streamed with wi-fi, showing the lossless badge)

Moving iTunes library to external drive I began to move my library to an external drive. I believe I copied over all the files but the library that opens is the library from 2015. The music folder is very messy with individual music files among a iTunes and iTunes1 folder. I used the itl file from that one but it seems to be from an earlier file. Do I need to take the unit into an Apple store for in person help?

Hello pikachu18 and welcome to Apple Support Communities.

It appears you are having some difficulty syncing music to your iPhone using a computer.

You can still move music directly from a computer to your iPhone without involving iCloud. Check here for details:
