Updating to monterey hestitancy due to Music/Itunes

I have hesitated to upgrade to MacOS Monterey on my computer because when I brought iPad Air recently Apple had stolen all my music in iTunes that were my own property (Cd's that I had burned in the days we had the slot to do so). thousands of dollars.) I have had no solution to resolving the latter. (Advice for that welcome). My issue at the moment is that I can not update my Safari Certificate because that is now part of the upgrade. I need to get that - but I do not want to risk the same happening as did with iPad Air to my music. Can anyone let me know if the problems with music/Itunes are resolved in Monterey - or is this update the one that caused the problems with music in my iPad? Or do I risk losing 3/4 of my music library with this update. I am on Catolina. I am starting to get really disappointed with Apple as it started out as intuitive technology - and now it is something quite different. Every time there is an update I become nervous.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

You’d have to explain how they did that, or what you did that resulted in you losing it.

What is a “Safari Certificate,” and why do you need to update it?

Can you describe what the problems were? I never experienced any.

- or is this update the one that caused the problems with music in my iPad?

Hard to say as I’m not sure what caused the problem with music on your iPad.

Or do I risk losing 3/4 of my music library with this update.

I didn’t lose anything, music or otherwise, so I can’t contemplate any risk.
