The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created with a newer version of iTunes

Are you using iTunes Match or Apple Music? If so sign out of those services, restore the older library file and then sign in again. Hopefully the playlists will merge rather than being replaced. If not then you will need to go offline, restore the older library, export the library as an XML file, reconnect, and then import the XML.

Probably best to keep the discussion in your thread: lost half my playlist after updating, have "swapped" slightly older library file and renamed new one corrupt, which works fopr twenty seconds then reverts back to losing half my playlist.
