After upgrading to Ventura from Catalina on my MacBook Pro I have lost my playlists in the Music app, all of the music is there but no playlists. I don't have a Music subscription and manually synch my music to my iphone, the playlists are still on the iphone because I haven't synched since updating the OS. Is there any way to recover the playlists or get them off the iPhone back onto the Mac?
First try hovering to right of the word Playlists in the sidebar and if you see the word Show, click it.
If that hasn't helped see Empty/corrupt iTunes/Music library after upgrade/crash - Apple Community. It may be that Music has made a backup of the database during the upgrade that you can restore, or there may be a .tmp file inside the .musiclibrary package that is a more complete version of your library. An alternative approach might be to sign up for Apple Music on your iPhone so that it can upload your playlists from the device which would then show up in your library.
