Syncing your library taking more than a day?

I wanted to quickly add a playlist I made on my Mac to my iPhone so I toggled ‘sync’ off and then back on. All of my Apple Music songs and playlists are now missing from Apple Music on my iPhone. They are still on my Mac. Apple Music on my iPhone has been “syncing library” since yesterday, and overnight. I still don’t have my playlist on my phone. Is there anyway to confirm Apple Music will actually sync to my IPhone? Should I do something to fix this? Thanks!

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14

Hello there b-t-h,



We understand you turned off Apple Music and then back on again, but now none of your music or playlists are syncing back. Let's take a closer look as we do our best to provide some additional insight.


To get started, were you connected to a reliable Wi-Fi network when this happened? If not, are you right now? If so, try doing the same thing by signing out of Apple Music and then back in again while connected. If the same thing happens, you can also try a different Wi-Fi network as well.


If issues persist, try the rest of these steps here: If songs are missing from your music library after you turn on Sync Library If that doesn't help, use the contact Apple Support option at the bottom for additional help.



We hope this helps get you pointed in the right direction.


Take care.
