Hi Ronni, I have had a read of this and it takes me down the same path suggesting I have too many devices associated to the Apple ID. I previously purged all old devices I no longer have from being associated (there were many) and I now have just 2 devices left associated with my Apple ID (I believe Apple permits up to 10 devices). But my new (used) iPad Air 4 and iPhone 11, neither are showing as associated devices in my “Manage Devices” window. All my playlists work in the Music app on these devices - made up of subscribed music and self bought music. I bought the iPad on Jan 13 2022 so still less than 90 days from when the previous owner disassociated her Apple ID from the iPad and iPhone was delivered just last week. I suppose I have to wait until April 13th (90 days from purchase date) to see if the iPad corrects itself. I can’t see what else it can be.
