Hey everyone,
So the update to iOS 9 broke a lot of software in my phone, so I did a full reset since the backup contained whatever bugs were introduced.
Now then, with iOS 8 and iOS 9, how exactly do I go about downloading my entire library. If I sync my songs using iTunes then turn on iCloud music, there is the option to Merge or Replace. If I Merge, then iCloud music doesn't sync my playlists like it should. If I Replace, all the music on my phone is removed and and I have to download the music again.
Downloading shouldn't be painful. We have 50 Mbps internet service. However, my iPhone 5 has endless errors when downloading the full library. Such as, I have a playlist named All Music that contains, well, all my music. If I make it available offline, it begins to download. However, doing this (with about 3500 songs) will essentially freeze the phone. I think the songs download, but it gets stuck processing and never finishes. If I slowly download the songs, say artist by artist, it will work, but this takes a lot of attention.
I remember iOS 7 or an early version of iOS 8 (cannot remember) would only queue about 100 songs at a time until it finished.
So what am I doing wrong? Shouldn't what I'm doing work?
