Ever since I downloaded IOS 17 for iPad my Apple Music doesn’t work. It will play a couple of songs, then freeze up. I have tried powering off several times with no result. I have deleted the app then reloaded it, still no result. Everything else works just fine except Apple Music. Any ideas?
iPad (6th generation)
Guys, I have a similar problem on the 6th generation iPad and I solved it by installing an alternative player from the AppStore, I chose Soor (7 USD)! And the problem really lies in their player, because if you select the system player in Soor, then the problem will be there too, but if you select the program player, then everything is ok! I hope it helped someone! I hope Apple fixes it!
Just loaded the latest 17.2 update second one and it solves the Ipad 6th gen Apple Music problem. Thank you Apple.
You can’t go back, but you CAN update to 17.2, which many users who posted in this thread (that you apparently didn’t read) said that 17.2 fixed the problem.
Katana-San. I did a forced restart, which i was unaware of, and it seems to have fixed my problem. Thank you!
I had same issue with IPad 7th generation.. Downloaded update 17.2 and issues appears to be resolved. Good luck everyone as this has been a very frustrating glitch.
Just downloaded iPadOS 17.2 and all is well! Thank you Apple!
Hello ~ Have you tried a forced restart? If not give the link below a look by clicking on…

Also what version of iOS 17 are you running?

Well it turns out the forced restart didn’t work. I played an Apple music playlist. It played about ten songs then froze up again. Beats me.
Are the songs in the playlist being streamed to the device, or is your content downloaded to it? You might try downloading the playlist if you're streaming, or removing the download otherwise, and then see if performance is any better.

It has to be the Apple Music app, and not the "obsolete" iPad 6gen.
On my iPad 6gen, the Music app is freezing as soon as I try to stream music or play music from the saved downloaded albums. This startet after the latest iPadOS 17.1.1 update.
Force restart and installing the Music App again did not help. More than 50GB internal free space.
The Apple Music Classic app is working without any issues, no matter if I stream or play downloaded titles, using Wi-Fi or LTE.
This is a long shot, but are you using VPN for your connection? If you are, delete the VPN profile and restart your phone. If that fixes it you can try reinstalling the VPN.

My ipad is 128GB. I have used 49. Im on 5G wi-fi.
5G is a cellular connection.
I think you mean 5GHz which has a short range. Have you tried 2.4GHz, assuming your router has it?
My iPad has been acting up when I want to play my purchases on the Music app. 6th gen, 128Gb, 50% free Ram, IOS 17.1.1. Did a forced restart as suggested and managed to get a recent purchase to stop freezing when I wanted to change track. It even displayed the songs! But, when I go to my Albums and select one, the list of songs will not appear. The app just freezes. I notice that going to the iTunes store lets me see my purchased album and songs and I can select them there. But truthfully, I think the Music app is ready for a major rewrite.
Could be a connection issue. Are you using cellular data, or Wi-Fi? A network interruption of more than a few seconds will kill a stream. Some 3rd party apps have much longer buffers, and can tolerate a long interruption.
ios 17.1.2 has just been released now.
The iPad it’s updating.
Will let you know if this update is fixing the problem
