certain songs I’ve had in my playlists forever won’t play (in this case songs by Josh Turner). if I try to play them I get a message that says “This song is not currently available in your country or region.” I can play the songs directly from Apple Music but not from my playlist. what gives?
iPhone 8
thanks!! I had already tried restarting my phone and I’m on the latest iOS, and I still couldn’t play the songs. also, the versions on my playlist were the ones on Apple Music and they still wouldn’t play. BUT, I deleted those versions and added different versions of the songs and they play now!! thanks again!!!

Hi there!
If you are getting this message when trying to play certain songs in playlists, first ensure that the songs you are searching for and the songs in your playlist are the same version. Your playlists may have a saved version of these songs that is no longer available in the Apple Music catalog. If the songs in your playlists are a different version than the ones you locate when you search, then remove these songs from your playlist and add the version that plays to resolve this issue.
If the songs are the same versions and this continues, then next restart your iPhone and ensure it is fully updated. This refreshes the software of your device and installs bug fixes that can alleviate unexpected behavior like this. These articles show how to do this:
