Apple Music Automatic downloading not working

Hi, I am using the latest version of iTunes on Mac, though all the new songs I add to my playlist don't download automatically. Please help! I also have all the automatic downloads boxes checked.

MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2018, 4 TBT3), macOS Mojave (10.14), On a beta

Hey StrangePC,

Thanks for reaching out via Apple Support Communities. I understand that your downloads have stopped even though you have Automatic Downloads enabled on your Mac. I like having my music downloaded to my Mac as well so I'd like to help. The information in this resource here is a great place to start for this issue.
If music, movies, or TV shows from the iTunes Store unexpectedly stop downloading

On a Mac or PC

  1. Open iTunes.
  2. If you're not signed in, sign in with your Apple ID.
  3. From the menu bar at the top of your computer screen or at the top of the iTunes window, choose Account > Check For Available Downloads
  4. Enter your password, then press the Return or Enter key on your keyboard, or click View Account.
  5. Your downloads restart automatically.

If you still can't restart your downloads, get more help.

If you still can't restart your downloads, try the steps below:

  • Restart your iOS device or computer.
  • Check for updates for your Mac or PC and install any software updates. Also, update any security software you might have, such as anti-virus, anti-malware, or firewall.
  • If you use Wi-Fi for Internet access, use a different Wi-Fi network when you download. If you connect to a home network, restart your Wi-Fi router. Also, check for and install any firmware updates for your Wi-Fi router. Refer to your router manufacturer's website for information on how to update its firmware.
  • Learn what to do if you can't connect to the iTunes Store.

I hope this helps.

Take care.
