Apple Music - uploaded tracks problem

I’ve added Apple Music to the Music services in the Sonos app but in some headings in My Music such as albums I get the dreaded message “we’ve run into a problem”. This is for my own Music that I’ve downloaded to Apple Music. Strangely most songs show under Songs, with some greyed out, but no albums show and I get the error message.  Playlists direct from Apple Music display and play ok. I’ve tried re-authorising Apple Music, removing it and restarting the iPhone as per other posts on this. None works. I’ve contacted both Sonos and Apple. Each blames the other and can’t offer a solution. It happens on all devices - iOS, macOS and Windows. 
 

Has anyone got any other solutions please? Thanks

I’ve still got the problem after a month. Artists and  albums won’t show for Apple Music but other info does. I’ve deleted and re-entered my account but no change

Hi @User197428, Thanks for reaching out, and welcome to the community. Sorry to know that you have the same issue with the original poster. let me help you with this. I’m also wondering if this is an account issue since other accounts are working fine with Sonos. Let’s hope for any further findings from Apple. When did it start happening? Have you made any changes before this incident?

Keep us posted on how it goes and we're here to answer any further questions you have.

Hi,

 

I have exactly the same issue. I have been in contact with Apple Support for over a month and the issue has been escalated to their Engineers, but still to no avail. I have tried everything you’ve suggested. Funnily enough, if I switch to my wife or child’s Apple Music account within the Sonos app, their account works perfectly fine. As soon as I switch back to my account, I get the “we’ve run into a problem” error message. And this behaviour can be replicated on all my devices (iPhone, iPad and Mac).

Thanks. However, I phoned last week and your adviser tried but eventually could not help with a solution and ended up saying it must be Apple’s fault. I then phoned Apple - they say it is Sonos! I’m stuck in the middle

I seem to have lost any Sonos support in this thread 🤷🏼

I refreshed the Apple iCloud music library on my Mac and now some, a minority, albums show under recently added in the Sonos app.  But no albums show under Albums in the Sonos app for the Apple Music service and no artists!

I’ve re synced my library and it’s still the same

Hi. The problem exists on all devices, including macOS, iPadOS, iOS and Windows 10 systems. All operating states and apps are up to date. My Apple Music library is also up to date but I’ll do it again

Hi @User197428, thanks for the update and for sending a diagnostic report of your Sonos system, upon checking the report, it shows that your Apple Music is added successfully to your Sonos system. I’ll ask some questions to further check on this issue. 

  • Have you tried it on another device controller where you have the Sonos App if the same issue occurs?
  • Have you tried to update your Apple music library and playlists to check if it will still give you the error message?

Answers to these questions will help us check further on this issue
