I cannot see my iTunes library on my PC. Something has imported a much smaller version of my 95,000 song library and changed the DATE ADDED to that day's date. And my Playlists are missing.

Some Songs Won't Import to Music When I import my music into the Music app, only some songs import. I have 260 songs, but only 215 successfully imported. When I hover over the music files that won't import and click the play button, the song plays normally and isn't corrupted, but when I try importing the song, it doesn't import properly and it doesn't give me any error message. When I tried importing through the "Automatically Add to Music" folder, it simply deletes the file and doesn't fix. Any help would be appreciated!

Apple Music - songs greyed out on my playlist Music won't allow me to play songs downloaded from CDs or Internet Archive on iPhone. They play fine on desktop. Can't add them to iPhone because they're greyed out there.
