Mac Apple Music "Cannot Connect" Error

I keep getting the "Cannot Connect" error popup on my mac.

If I download the music, I can play. But if I try to play it, I can't.

I tried deauthorizing and signing out and back in; but the problem is still the same..

All my other accounts on my iMac, iPhone, iPad works perfectly fine.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 14.2

There was a temporary problem completing your request When I try and use Apple Music on my MacBook Air M2 and go to the browse, search, radio, listen now, it just says "There was a temporary problem completing your request". I have tried signing in and out and turning off and on sync but it has not changed anything. It works on my iPhone just not on my Mac. It only will play songs in my library but they will take 5 min to load. My wifi is also stable. (no song shows up on iMovie where it says it should if any has a fix to that that would also be helpful )

Apple music not working on mac My apple music won't play my music. It will load everything, and display all my music and playlists (it works just fine on my phone), but when I try to play a song it will display a pop up asking me to join apple music as if I am already not subscribed to it. When I then click "join" it will display another pop up with a pinwheel, then it will say "cannot connect" with an option to retry. If I click retry it will then hang forever. I have tried signing out of my account, syncing it with my icloud, I even installed an update and it's doing the same thing. What is the issue here? Is there an option for me to uninstall the app and reinstall it?

What causes the "Something went wrong" error on Apple Music? When using apple music on both of my Macbooks, when i try to search a song, artist or profile - i constantly get the "Something went wrong. Please try again later." error. I have signed out & back in on both devices, restarted the app and both devices. From my knowledge I don't have 2 Apple ID's, and both devices are signed in using the same ID. This happened once in a blue moon before, though now i cannot look anything up without getting the error. [Re-Titled By Moderator]
