    HI,

    You cannot copy Apple Music to external SD card because of DRM.

    There's now an option in Settings to select Download Location: Device Storage or SD Card.

     

    When I switch to SD Card, it says "Change download location to SD card? The music currently stored on your device will be transferred to your SD card." When I say YES, the app crashes.

     

    I went to the Application manager app in the device settings, selected Apple Music from the list, and clicked CLEAR DATA.

     

    I went back to the Apple Music app, signed in again, went back in to Settings, and switched to SD Card. After YES at the prompt, it said my stuff was successfully transferred.

     

    I went to Playlists and selected a song, selected the menu icon and clicked Download, and it said it downloaded the song.

     

    Went back to the Application manager app, checked the SD card data, and it now shows 6.38MB.

     

    Thanks Apple!
