Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference to kick off June 10 at 10 a.m. PDT with Keynote address

The Keynote will be available to stream on apple.com, the Apple Developer app, the Apple TV app, and the Apple YouTube channel. On-demand playback will be available after the conclusion of the stream.

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Music syncing from iCloud

If I begin iCloud storage for my music library currently on my Mac, when sync'd to my iPhone and iPad, will the play lists also download?

iPhone X, iOS 14

Hey there redrocktom7,


We'd like to help answer your question about syncing Music between your three devices.


No, enabling iCloud alone would not sync Music between your three devices.


However, having an Apple Music or an iTunes Match subscription would allow for this to occur. An Apple Music subscription has the added benefit of being able to access the entire Apple Music catalog. For more details, check out the information in these two links:

  1. Apple Music
  2. Subscribe to iTunes Match


Take care!
