In the music app, I want to add songs to existing playlists. However by right clicking on a song, I have only the option to add songs to a new playlist. My existing playlists do not show as an option. Apparently this option has disappeared in Sonoma 14.2!? Can you help me please? Many thanks in advance.

I am also having this issue - ie I can't add to existing playlists, only to new ones. You can drag and drop but can't add using the menu option, which is annoying. I found one workaround, which is to export a playlist and then import it - this creates a new version of the playlist, preserving its content, and once you do that you can add as you could before. One annoying thing is you end up with 2 playlists with the same name - if you edit the .xml file after exporting but before importing you can edit the playlist name at that stage so it imports as a clearly-labelled new version
Have you created those 5 recently? Do you see older playlists? I just noticed that if I create a new playlist, it shows in the right-click menu, but my older lists still do not. In the screenshot below, my '2024' playlists i just created show, but notice all the other PLs in the left menu that do not show. I ask again, wtf?
Hello, thanks for your reply. I hope this will be fixed soon. Indeed drag-n-drop takes more time and is less convenient...:-(
I don't really understand why Apple keeps doing stuff like that! It is as if they drive people away. I am one of Apple's most loyal customers, but stuff like that became so annoying :(
it hasn't been fixed on mine, i installed the new os last night
It's not fixed on mine.
Yeah, it's not fixed.
That is very strange. See the screenshot?
I gave MacBook Pro a shot but going back to PC's in the future. Tired of this.
Just upgraded to Sonoma 14.3.1 and I'm still experiencing this issue as of 2/27/2024
Not for me - 14.3.1, and no pending Music update. Maybe depends on some other lib that hasn't updated, but still broken.
Yes, it’s working also on my Mac! Thanks for letting me know!
I am unable to add songs to existing playlist post Sonoma update
