Hello Unbelievablyfrustrating,
For music syncing of an Apple Music library, all you need is Sync Library enabled. Per Use Sync Library to access your music library across your devices - Apple Support, "If you subscribe to Apple Music, you can access your music library, including your playlists, on any device that has the Apple Music app and signed in with the same Apple ID that you use with your Apple Music subscription."
So you'd sign into your Apple ID on the new iPhone after setting it up and then your content should be present. Here's how to Transfer data from your previous iOS or iPadOS device to your new iPhone or iPad - Apple Support if you need. If you have any further questions, just let us know.
Cheers!

Hey Unbelievablyfrustrating,
If deleting and redownloading the greyed out songs doesn't resolve the issue: Redownload music - Apple Support
Then we recommend reaching out to Apple Support for a closer look: Contact - Official Apple Support
Take care.
Hi Unbelievablyfrustrating,
What happens specifically when you attempt to transfer your music? Do you see an alert? If so, what message do you see?
Is this music you've purchased via iTunes or did you sync your iPhone with your computer to download the music to your iPhone?
Are you an Apple Music subscriber?
Are you signed in with the same Apple ID on your new iPhone that you used with your previous iPhone?
Have you already restored a backup from your previous iPhone to your new iPhone? If not, you can do so as outlined here: Transfer data from your previous iOS or iPadOS device to your new iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
"Select a method
Next, select one of these transfer methods.
Quick Start: Use your iPhone or iPad to automatically set up a new device.
iCloud: Transfer your data and purchased content to your new device from your previous device's iCloud backup.
iTunes or Finder: Transfer your data and purchased content to your new device from a backup you made with iTunes or Finder."
We look forward to your reply.
Take care!
Nothing happens. I backup from the cloud but still no purchased music. I only have downloaded music from my old phone. Yes I use Apple Music account. It shows up on my new phone but the music that was initially uploaded to my old phone shows up greyed out.
I have tried and tried to transfer music from my old IPhone to my new one. For what ever reason…I CAN NOT DO IT. It’s very frustrating. Please help. Someone just give me step-by-step instructions. Thanks. Old phone is a XS new one is a 14 Pro.
