How to transfer music from iPhone to new iphone

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
