"Loading iCloud Music Library" takes forever, then times out with "An Error Occurred"

Hello:


I've de-authorized all my devices and re-authorized only the ones I currently have, but on my brand new 2021 MacBook Pro, I put a check in "Sync Library" and it starts with "Loading iCloud Music Library" which literally can take over a day, but always fails with "An Error Occurred"


Please help! I am at a complete loss.


MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 12.3

Most peculiar then. Have you checked for updates to Monterey? You can try holding down option+cmd as you launch Music which opens it in safe mode. It may help, but I don't recall seeing these symptoms before. Transferring the working library from another system so you start with everything already in place might work better for you.
