Apple Music skipping every track after Tahoe upgrade on MacBook Pro

Since upgrading to Tahoe 26.0.1 my music won't play at all. I have tried authorising and deauthorising, removing devices etc. I have signed in and out etc, cleared my cache etc. No matter what I do, every song I try play is skipped. The only music I can play is downloaded or purchased music. The problem is isolated to my MacBook Pro, my other 2 phones are working fine.

I have never had issues like this before, I pay monthly for this service and can't use it it all since the upgrade. I can't find a solution on the internet either.

Please, please can somebody or Apple help with this. I'm obviously doing something wrong.

Would appreciate it!

If you have a large music library it could be that it is taking a long while for whatever reason in the new music app to load the music up. I have found that I can play an album and it might start at track 3 then skip to track 7 and do this for a whole album only playing 4 out of 12 tracks for instance. Try opening the music app and giving it half an hour before trying to play an album. For whatever reason with the new music app the larger your library the longer it takes to process your albums. This occurs every time you open the app. My music library file has gone from 150mb to over a gigabyte since the Tahoe upgrade!

Thanks for your reply, appreciate it. Unfortunately that hasn't worked on my side. I think it's time to cancel my subscription rather and just move over to Spotify. Seems as if this isn't going to be sorted out any time soon.
