lost all my music on macbook pro

After choosing to sync music on my iPhone, I picked up my MacBook Pro to find all my music has vanished. Also I noticed that instead of having 25 gig free I now have 100 gigs free. What could have happened?

Troubleshooting Lost Music:

Why they may be Missing and How to Retrieve them:

  • Removed from iTunes Library:

Where these all MP3 Files? Or were they purchased from Apple Music? Sometimes, items become removed from the iTunes library, and they never become accessible again. It all has to do with licensing between Apple and the Music Studio.


  • Unhide these Purchases:

Perhaps these have become Hidden Purchases? To see if that is the case, unhide them.
