Music on IOS - Previously downloaded music is grayed out....

After transitioning to my new iPhone (14), I realized I have MANY songs that are showing gray and as "not available in your country/region". I'm in the United States and all the songs I have are allowed here/purchased here.


I tried changing my region/country settings and it shows correctly as "United States".


Any suggestions/help?


For reference, I can play ALL the songs on my Macbook... but I cannot on my iPhone.

iPhone 14 Pro
