How to recover lost cd music
Hello Gearhead56,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
We want to help you recover your missing music. Can you tell us more about what happened when the music first went missing?
Was this music that was synced to your iPhone from a computer, or something else? Are you an Apple Music member?
If this happened after turning on Sync Library, use the steps here: If songs are missing from your music library after you turn on Sync Library - Apple Support
The more details you can provide about the situation, the better equipped we are to assist.
Cheers!
My cd loaded music was on my phone until os15 was added. Now I look at my iCloud available apps to snack up and it not even an option. The Apple Music I purchased shows up but not what I downloaded from cds. I have had them on my phones since I I got my first phone. I didn’t change any settings.
Thanks for the details, Gearhead56. We'd like to learn more to see how we can further assist.
How exactly were you accessing your synced music from CDs on your iPhone? Were you using Apple Music to access them in your library or were you using a third-party app? Where are you seeing that the songs are missing?
Did you recently turn on Sync Library in Settings > Music? Which exact iOS version is listed in Settings > General > About?
