Apple Music doesn’t work on my iPad

I’m an Apple Music Classical user. I’m registered with Apple Music and Apple Music Classical, paid up, no issues. I got the app started - with much difficulty - on Bruckner 8, 1st movement. But then it simply refused to play the rest. Press play as much as I wanted, no joy. Nothing happened. No other app on my iPad has the same problem. However, Apple Music Classical on my Android phone (yes, I know) works without problems.

My iPad is gen 7, IOS 17.6.1. There are no error messages. It’s just: press play, nothing happens.

iPad, iPadOS 17

Yes. Also removed and re-installed both Apple Music and Apple Music Classical. No joy on any of those.

However, I upgraded to IOS 18.1.1 which seems to have done the trick. At least for now, play actually starts when I click it.

Have you tried to restart the iPad to see if the issues persist?

You might also want to upgrade to iPadOS 17.7 or later and see if that helps. There have been a number of security and bug fixes since iPadOS 17.6.1.

Regards.
