Can’t Transfer Spotify to Apple Music – “Currently Busy” Message

The “Currently Busy” message when transferring Spotify to Apple Music usually occurs due to server issues, high traffic, or temporary connectivity problems. Retry after some time, ensure both accounts are properly connected, and check for app updates.

Okay so, I'm in the process of transferring but I think I fixed it. Basically just reset your network settings in iPhone general settings under reset iPhone. I did that and it immediately worked and now is transferring.

resetting my network worked for me too!

At a guess, millions of people are trying to transfer music from Spotify to Apple Music and the servers are overwhelmed. I suggest trying again in a few days.

I use Friendly Streaming App to access Spotify and it plays fine. However, since Spotify is starting to charge anyone using Spotify after Sept 28th, I have stopped using it since I get free music with my tv/internet provider. You might try Friendly Streaming App. It does have some bugs but it did play Spotify without issue.

I use iRecord on an iBook to record purchased copy protected movies and music onto a memory stick so that might be one way to get around the problem if you can get the iRecord adapter. I've had to use it to convert my purchased Apple music when I had trouble accessing old purchases on old apple accounts with newer computers.

Unfortunately, no one here in this user-to-user forum would know Apple's plans for the future.

You can let Apple know it's important to you here:

How do these suggestions answer the original question of how to use the SongShift feature in Apple Music to transfer music and playlists from Spotify to Apple Music?

Same

Same here!

Having this same issue. I've tried signing out and back in and restarting and all that and it's still greyed out. Following this for updates if anyone is able to fix it.

It worked for me the first day it was announced on the web(AM) and iPhone. I tried the next day, but I got the same error, and I've been experiencing it since then.

and just like that, it started working again without making any changes...
