Hi all,

Is there anyway to download my whole Apple Music Library (ie songs added to my library) to my iPhone?

I understand I can go through and check items one by one to download, but with about 1,000 artists to go through this will take some time.

Is there anyway to download my whole Library at once?

Thanks,

Dylan

Click on your phone in the sidebar.
Select Music.
Check "entire music library"
Sync.

Will that sync my entire Apple Music Library (as part of my subscription) - or only music purchased previously through the iTunes Store?

It will sync all the songs that are in your iTunes music library-- songs that you've purchased from the ITMS and songs that you've ripped from your CD collection. It has nothing to do with your subscription to Apple Music.

Yes - so all my music is now through an Apple Music subscription and through iTunes Match. There is no music stored on my Mac or iPhone.

I'd like to download all of my music that has been added from Apple Music into my Library (through the subscription) onto my iPhone.

There seems to be no 'mass download' option - only the ability do download songs, albums etc. Is this correct that no such function exists?

Create a smart playlist that includes all the music.. And then click the download playlist button on your phone if you use Apple Music
