MBP 2021. Since updating to 14.3 last night, Music will not play any tracks from my library. If I try to play from an album, nothing happens at all. If I try to play from a playlist, I get the beachball and have to force quit. I'm a music teacher and use these playlists every day, please advise!
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.6
I think I got it. I imported, signed out, and signed in. Nothing worked. I went to settings > Privacy and security > Media & Apple Music. In there, I added Apple Music. Afterwards, I synced my Library and everything is working the way it was before the update.
Thankfully I found this thread. This worked for me too, mind you I first spent an hour wasting time talking to 4 Apple "genius" reps - none of whom had a solution and had me reinstall the OS, which didn't work. This did and it was simple and took all of 5 minutes. Appreciate the help!
Sadly this didn't work for me. I completed the two steps but the Apple Music icon still "bounces" once and never opens when clicked. Attempting to open the application from within Finder also results in the same outcome. Sonoma 14.3 broke Apple Music on my Mac Studio and 14.4 and 14.5 haven't provided a fix. Apple Music won't open anymore.
Same here. For clarity, this is with my library of music files, and not streaming. Nothing happens when hitting play to any song or the beachball appears.
I dont see option for Display in the Finder. My music is in the cloud using iTunes match,
My music is stored in the Cloud using iTunes Match. I don't want to have to re-import all my files again.
I have thousands of music files though. That would take me a year.
I have Apple Music streaming broken from 14.2 update. If I try to play anything, app freezes, and only Force quit possible.
No solution still.
My library counts nearly 8000 songs and it ran for 15-20 seconds (Mac Mini M2 Pro). Reshuffling the files on OneDrive took a few minutes.
It knows where all the tracks are, so I don't know why I should have to re-import them (and potentially mess up my playlists, etc.). It just won't play them.
How exactly did you "sync your library"? I don't see any such command.
Tried this, still won't play anything unfortunately.
That worked - thanks!
This only works for individual files on my Mac. When I select all tracks it removes the services option so I am unable to show in finder. Not sure how you did it?
I'm not sure how you do that on the Mac as the Music App doesn't show up in system settings.
Thanks, @FatCol, this worked for me!!
Apple Music doesn't work after Sonoma 14.3 update
