Very erratic Apple Music behaviour though. My iMac and iPhone use the latest MacOS and iOS.
I downloaded to my iMac from Apple Music 2 days ago. Singer A = 2 Songs Singer B = 3 Songs Singer C = 2 Songs Then I plugged my iPhone into my iMac and opened Music (on my iMac) to Sync. Both Songs from Singer A arrived on my iPhone But nothing arrived on my iPhone from Singers B or C. I took your advice yesterday and now have 2 of Singer B’s Songs on my iPhone (not all 3) And both Songs from Singer C have arrived on my iPhone Please don’t tell me this is normal for Apple. I am starting to think “The Dark Side” is involved.
