Added songs (after playing) are greyed out in playlist

I switched from Spotify to Apple Music and converted my playlists by using Tunemymusic. iCloud sync is enabled. Some songs are greyed though. If I search them I'm able to play them (exact same version from what I can tell). If I delete them, search and add them (after playing) they're greyed out on the list. If I make a new list, search the exact same songs and add them, they're greyed out.


The Mac mini reports an error, the iPhone a region problem.


Weird thing is, I am able to play the songs... so why a region problem solely when I add them on my playlists... this is really annoying.


There are no restrictions on, sync is on on all devices etc.

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities JeffryL,


We see that you're having issues with your songs and playlists on your devices being grayed out. We know that you want to be able to enjoy your music, and we'd like to help.


We have provided an article below that can help with your songs being grayed out.


If your songs are grayed out


You mentioned that you are switching from Spotify to Apple Music using a third-party service. This could be part of what is happening. We have also included a link for support for Tunemymusic. You might want to reach out to their support for additional help. Also, keep in mind if you have changed the country/region for your Apple ID account not all music and content is available in every country or region.
