    With iCloud Music Library enabled in iTunes Preferences you should be able to make a smart playlist in iTunes on your computer which includes all the songs in your library. Then on your device you just need to make that playlist available offline and it should work.

    I am not sure if this will work. Wonder if you create a playlist, call it (Everything). Drag all your music on your Mac/Windows computer into that playlist. Then click on the playlist and request to play offline on your iOS device? I think this is quick work around. Will take a while depending on your music library size.

     

    Recently I have just fixed my iTunes Library after iCloud Music have altered my songs and albums data.

    I had this same issue and just solved it. Plug your device into your home machine with WiFi enabled. Select your device from the list below the menu

    Check the sync music box, as I have above, then click the sync button at the bottom of the interface. This picked up almost everything from my library and installed it on the device, barring the few odd files that I need to reassociate with iTunes.

    Go to my music... Go to playlists... Create new playlist... Title it and hit "add songs"... Choose "albums"... Hit the plus sign next to every album you have collected (it will only include songs yyou chose from the albums, not those you didn't want)... hit "done"... Then make playlist available offline

     

    hopefully they'll come out with an update to make it more user friendly but for now this seems to be the easiest way

    Honestly Apple - you really dropped the ball on this one.

     

    I just got a replacement phone and now my ONLY option to transfer 5000 songs if I want iCloud Music Library is to download ONE BY ONE???

     

    If there is another way, SPEAK UP!

     

    Otherwise, fix it for F-sake or I'm going back to Spotify and Local Music only.

     

    Steve would be rolling over in his grave watching your FAILED deployments of new software ..

    I figured it out. When looking at your music on your phone, look by genre. Beside each genre there will be ellipses where you can make available offline. If you have genres for all your songs this should make it easier.

    This did not work for me at all.  I watched iTunes as it said it was copying all 2100 of my songs to my phone.  I have celluar data for music turned off because I dont want to burn data downloading songs I've already supposedly added to my device.

     

    The second I leave my wifi network non of my songs are available!  They're all listed but greyed out.  I should have to manually make them all available offline.

     

    This move is ridiculous. I agree Apple dropped the ball on this one.

    It is my understanding to get all music available for offline use, on iTunes on your computer, create a smart playlist (iCloud Status) is (Apple Music) - then simply right click on the playlist and make available for offline use. BOOM. Live updates and all.

    The easiest way to get all your music IF IT IS ON YOUR COMPUTER IN ITUNES is to turn off iCloud Music on the iPhone. Disconnect and re-connect to iTunes and then SYNC. it should sync everything that is on your iTunes library on your computer to the phone. After that you can turn on iCloud music again and when you add new music from the apple music store select "make available offline" to add it to your device.
