Apple Music Not Working after iOS 14.5 Update

After updating to ios 14.5, my Apple Music can only play the few songs that are physically on my phone. Is anyone else having that problem?

iPhone XS, iOS 14

None of the above suggestions fixed the issue.. But Apple issued a 14.5.1 update today to "fix some bugs" and after updating, it my Apple Music is back up and running. Apparently the 14.5 update messed up the Apple Music app but today's update seems to have fixed it.. Fingers crossed is holds up!

Let me help.. It worked for me. First go to settings, go to music, turn on cellular, add playlist songs, sync library and set Dolby atmos to automatic. Then go to your iPhone id, sign out of iCloud and after 10-20 seconds sign in back. All downloaded songs will be deleted and you have to download them again but after that the problem will be sorted.

Hey Guys,


Has someone found a solution to this?


Apple Music works fine on my iPad but on my iPhone it doesn’t and it’s really really frustrating!

@apple, where is your service and answer on this topic? I found a lot of other tickets concerning this issue, and I’ve the feeling that Apple’s service is put on mute for this issue!


We are all paying a subscription for nothing, that’s what we call a great service!
