Change in licensing agreements<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Sometimes there are changes in the licensing agreements between Apple Music and the artists and record labels which may result in some songs becoming unavailable to users. These songs become grayed out in the library and can no longer be played.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try checking the song again after a few days, it may be available again if the agreement issues get resolved.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-icloud-sync-issue\">2. iCloud sync issue<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Your iCloud account may not be syncing properly, resulting in a partially loaded Apple Music library. Some songs may be grayed out due for this reason. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try signing out of your iCloud account and sign back in to resync the music library. Make sure sync library is turned on for Apple Music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To sign out of iCloud:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Go to &ldquo;Settings&rdquo; &gt; &ldquo;[Your account]&rdquo;.<\/li><li>Scroll down and tap on &ldquo;Sign Out&rdquo;.<\/li><li>Choose the data you want to keep on your iPhone and tap on &ldquo;Sign Out&rdquo; again to confirm.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_626bc7193bd13.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"640\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_626bc7193bd13.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"640\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-21\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Sign back into your iCloud account again and you should have your grayed out songs back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See section &ldquo;Turned off iCloud sync library&rdquo; earlier for how to enable sync library.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-itunes-account-issue\">3. iTunes account issue<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Sometimes there may be issues loading music from your iTunes account. This can generally be fixed by simply signing out and then signing in again to your iTunes account on your iPhone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To log out of your iTunes account, follow the instructions in section &ldquo;For iOS 14 and later&rdquo; and &ldquo;For iOS 13 and earlier&rdquo;.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-unreleased-songs\">4. Unreleased songs<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Some artists may not release all songs of an album at once. If you have downloaded the whole album, any unreleased songs will be grayed out. These songs will become available to you once they are released by the artists.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-unavailability-of-songs-in-certain-regions\">5. Unavailability of songs in certain regions<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Some songs are unavailable in certain countries or regions, so they appear grayed out when users from these areas search for them in the Apple Music app.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-do-i-keep-songs-forever-on-apple-music\">How do I keep songs forever on Apple Music?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>As mentioned earlier, Apple Music songs are protected by DRM technology (Digital Rights Management) which means they are all labeled as Apple Music files and are allowed to play only as long as you are an active subscriber to the service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As soon as your subscription expires or you don&rsquo;t pay for it, these songs become unavailable to you even if you have downloaded them on your phone or PC for offline listening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to keep Apple Music songs forever on your device, you need to first break the DRM protection and convert the Apple specific file type songs to other music file types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use third party software like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sidify.com\/apple-music-win\/apple-music-converter.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sidify Apple Music Converter<\/a> to convert your Apple Music files to other formats and save it on your device forever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As an Apple Music subscriber, you may be wondering whether your music library will get deleted if you stop renewing your subscription.
