I have one song in my library that will not upload. It has been doing this since 2016. I have tried removing it from the Library and re-adding. It stays as "waiting" for days and then.....nothing. Just blank.

Hey jasmclar,
So to confirm, you're only having this issue with one specific song. Is that correct? If yes, we do see that you tried deleting the song and then redownloading it.
Is this a purchased song, or do you have an Apple Music subscription, and are redownloading from the Apple Music Catalog?
Verify the steps are followed from the resource which applies:
•Purchased song: Redownload music - Apple Support
•Apple Music subscription, can you play the song from the Apple Music Catalog? If so, redownload from catalog: Add and download music from Apple Music - Apple Support
For both options, you'll want to make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi or cellular data. If cellular data, verify is enabled for the Music app at Settings > Cellular.
Let us know how it goes!
Best regards.
I've been having the same problem with songs "waiting" to load from wherever into my macbook. so fr nobody has given me a simple answer. I'm "over 65" and am fed up with everything computerised never doing what it's supposed to do easily and simply. I have a music library of over 30,000 songs and Apple managed to lose over 3,000 of them, still "waiting".
I've tried resetting the computer, spoken with the help desk several times and asked the question on here several times. Still no luck. someone, somewhere, must have. simple answer. Since my backup hard drive crashed over 3 years ago I've still not managed to retrieve all my songs.
It was a song I imported forever ago from an album and have attempted to get it to upload several times. This is the only song that won't upload.
