Hello ,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.


The following steps are from the GarageBand help section, and explain the 6 step process of importing a song from the Music app.


Import a song from the Music app

  1. To import the entire song, set the current song section to Automatic; otherwise, only the portion of the song that fits the current song section is imported.
  2. Tap the View button User uploaded file to open Tracks view.
  3. Tap the Loop Browser button User uploaded file in the control bar, then tap Music.
  4. You can search for songs by name, or browse by album, artist, genre, or playlist.
  5. To preview a song, tap it in the list. You can control the preview volume with the slider at the bottom of the list.
  6. Drag a song left or right to show Tracks view. Align the left edge of the song with the bar or beat on the ruler where you want it to start playing.
