i.OS 8.4 is awful, music no longer works seamlesssly across devices, some of the songs are inhibited (those tagged as explicit cannot be downloaded or played) library can't be browsed as it used to be. In a nutshell its a huge fail! Why should I be forced to buy a subscription service when I have already spent thousands on devices that used to be perfect ? Remove this upgrade and bring back 8.3!!!!
I'm unable to reproduce any of your issues, do you actually have a question you want answered.
Yes my question is how can I get the music I paid for on iTunes back on the apple devices I paid for and stored on the 200gb of cloud I paid for without having to pay a subscription for a service I don't want and I don't like !!!!ðŸ˜
Your 200 GB of space has nothing to do with storing music, purchased content is stored in Apple's space not yours and if you store non purchased content in the cloud you do so with iTunes Match which is separate from your 200 GB.
All you need to do to put the music you want on your device is to show all music (tap the red text in the middle of the screen, it may say artist, albums, songs or something else and turn off the option to show music offline), once all your music is visible tap the three dots by the side of the music you want on your phone and choose 'make available offline'
It still does not show all of my music. Random songs are no longer visible as if I never bought them. Also for some strange reason songs that are tagged with E (for explicit lyrics) are not available even though I had brought them from the device ! âž–
Have you looked in your restriction settings, are the songs still available in iTunes.
I Have checked the restrictions settings and turned them off, I can't even access them on iTunes from the device which I have upgraded (luckily just one and might be my last apple device if this is not sorted out) . It is a bug (one of the many) . This release is poor and not up to apple's quality . Just face it !
It's not a bug, it's something specific to your settings or the way you are trying to use it. Mine works perfectly well and I consider it a vast improvement in ease of use and functionality over the previous software.
This is not an answer and does not solve my problem. It is just advocating for the company
It may not but an answer to your issue, but it wasn't intended to be, my only intention was to correct your opening rant in that there was an inherent issue with how Apple music worked, there isn't, it's just you that has the problem. The purpose of posting this is to point out that the solution will be found in a different place to where you think it might. i.e it's something to do with your set up, not 8.4 per se.
