Cloud music library playlists can only contain...

Ah, we're getting somewhere. The tracks need to say either Matched or Uploaded before they can be added to a cloud playlist. Try File > Library > Update Cloud Library. You may need to repeat this action a few times until all waiting tracks have been processed.

Hi,

It would appear that the tracks have not been added to the iCloud music library. Check out this Identify cloud status icons in your music library on your Mac or PC - Apple Support

I am having a similar issue. I have iCloud Music Library turned on for all devices. My issue is, when I change a playlist on my computer, the old data from one of my other devices overwrite the computer and restores the deleted tracks. Thoughts?

There seems to be an issue at the moment affecting some users where updates in the library on a computer don't get committed to the cloud, and the library later reverts to the cloud version. Short of making your edits on another device, or at least making a single edit and checking that it gets replicated elsewhere before making more changes, I don't know what to suggest.

Using the link above what does it say in the status column for the tracks with the dotted clouds? E.g. Waiting, Ineligible, Error, etc.?

There ought to be something in the Cloud Status column:

Are the tracks in question stored locally on your computer?

You're welcome. 🙂
