Hi I'm new to all this so apologies! A friend has shared some music files with me via dropbox. I have a dropbox account and have installed the app on my iphone. How do I download the music files on to my phone so I can play them?

I followed the process for IOS. The only issue I am having is that it does not give me the ability to save the MP3 into the my files location on an iPhone. It only gives me the abilty to save into Pages or another App that I have installed. Any ideas?

If possible, maybe you could take a try on your computer by using the other way. I knew a tool named Mac Audio Recording Software, which can grab the audios you are playing on the computer. Hope it will help you.

Having some problems with apple music. I've bought a subscription and downloaded some songs, however they will play when on the internet, I turn wi-fi off and they'll still play until I close the app. I then try open the app offline and it says it's playing yet there's no sound and the time bar isn't moving. Any help would be appreciated! Cheers.

Hello Guys, Same happen to me, so i looked for a Solution, when itunes it's online and you download a song, usually keep pushing to sync with the apple server, u can tell when you see the word downloaded once start playing it's change for a second, so what i did was simply go to the music settings and disable to add songs to the playlist automatically,(doesn't make sense) but what i realize is that when you are going to play the downloaded music it push to add automatically to the playlist and that's why needs the internet. so i disable it and close the app two times and at the same same play both time offline(it worked) and to ensure it was going to stay i turned off my iphone and started again and finally worked.???

I recall it didn't used to have this issue before the last update. I am able to download music to my phone from Apple Music and listen to them when i am running. I have Mobile Data off for Apple Music, as I do not want to have Apple Music stream the music to my phone when i am using it.

When i was running this morning, my music got cut off as i moved out of range from my wifi at home. I am not able to play any music after that, and these are the ones that i have already downloaded to my phone previously before.

However I decided to try something and switched Mobile Data on for Apple Music, and the music started playing. This is stupid, the whole purpose of downloading the music to my phone is to prevent it from running up data charges from my network provider when i play them on the go. If Apple Music requires there to be an active network connection to play the music, then i'd be better off cancelling my subscription.

The songs you download for offline listening do not require an internet connection to play. Take a look at the resource below to confirm how to download these files, and how to change the view so that you are only seeing songs that have been downloaded to your iPhone for offline listening.

Before you can download content to listen to offline, you need to add it to your Library. Then, in the Music app on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch; in iTunes on your Mac or PC; or in the Apple Music app on your Android phone, find the item that you want to download, and follow these steps:

Just finished four hours of doing the rounds of apple customer support chat (most of whom seemed to be using fake names, not that I blame them). Not sure if I would have been better off calling or not. The recommendation they left me with was to backup my phone to iTunes on a laptop, Reset and configure my phone as new again using iTunes, and finally restore my backup onto it. They had me try turning off and back on my iCloud library too with no results.

I might give your suggestion of just leaving it off all night a try first, because with my slow internet connection a iTunes reset means waiting nearly two hours for new software to download and many more after that for my music and apps to re-install. Oh god, 25 Gigs of music will take days.?

I have the same issue - I add songs to my library with the plus button and then download them with the cloud button. I can play them alright, but if I turn off wifi or cellular, several minutes afterwards, after a song ends, the next one won't play - it will show the artwork and everything, but the time will be stuck at 0:00. I can scroll through the time, for example go to 2:34 of the song, hit play, but it won't play at all. If I turn wifi or cellular back on again, the song automatically starts playing (from the beginning though)

I hope Apple does something fix it because it's not worth paying every month for a service that has this bug, while there are other music providers like Spotify that are far from perfect but at least allow you to listen to songs offline. Extremely disappointing and frustrating!

It started for me after I upgraded to iOS 11.2.1 from an earlier version of IOS 11. Songs I have purchased from iTunes or ripped from my CD collection and physically synced to my phone from iTunes on a laptop still work.

But Apple Music songs I have downloaded (it says they are downloaded and they are not greyed out) to listen too offline will not play when I am offline and have not connected to the internet less than about 10 minutes ago.

Just spent over an hour with 3 different levels of tech. IF you connect wifi, delete the song/album/playlist that is having issues playing, then search/download it again (by the little cloud), and then you see it is "downloaded", click the three dots at the top. It will show a cloud again, and click the word "download". Now you should have the music again on your device, and you can go back to non-wifi to test playback.

This should fix the issue, but unfortunately, you will have to do that to every single affected song/cd/playlist individually. (or you can basically wipe out your icloud music library and start from scratch).

The real problem is not that, however. The real issue, and why some of my music was disappearing even from ripped/imported songs/cd's, is that in its infinite wisdom of cloudiness, Apple has decided to replace songs on your device with new, or what they consider 'better' versions. So if you have songs that are rare, impossible to replace, and having trouble keeping them from fading to gray and not playing, this is why. They will be replaced by "apple versions", like it or not. I've got 1/2 an iPod to illustrate this if anyone has doubt.

I hope there will be enough noise about this setting of their choosing my music for me that it will be changed. It really is risky if you have precious music versions you like, because they will be replaced for you.

However this morning I decided to plug my iPhone 6s into my pc and restore the music library from a backup I had, having done it before the problem appeared. After the restore I re-downloaded the musics on my iPhone and now I can play them offline normally.

Is there an answer for this yet? I spent about 4 hours yesterday without success. Ultimately I am trying to play music that I have downloaded from apple music (as well as some music I paid for and/or imported years ago). I am also getting the same issue of no sound coming out, but my iTouch pretends as if it is playing. My music is downloaded, and many of these songs I have had since joining apple music last summer (June 2017), but some of the music that will no longer play I actually ripped/imported into itunes and they used to work. So i've got songs, cd's, collections that have been just fine until lately, and nothing will play when it looks "faded" unless I'm on a wifi connection.

The worst part is that it has gotten worse in the last update I did, and randomly songs will fade and require re-downloading and/or wifi. songs I KNOW were there this morning, now gone as I drive down the road. This is an iTouch, no cell data, and the intent is to have it downloaded, which is why I choose download, yes?
After spending time with Apple yesterday to no avail, I did lose over 2,000 songs that have not shown up yet. Nice, eh?

FIX? PLEASE? Why have the ability to download and keep to play offline when that is exactly what is NOT happening?
I have an appointment on the phone today with them at 2, so it will be interesting to see what comes of it.

I seem to get the same issue as above, and what is even more peculiar is, while the track claims it is downloaded you can press the three dots and then there is option to download which once pressed is no longer there but there doesn't seem to be anything being downloaded, so perhaps authorizations issue?

I am on Apple Music. And to convert Apple Music to Sandisk player, I use the Audio Converter for Windows to help me. With it, I can download and convert Apple Music as local files in other plain audio formats. Then I can sync the music to any other devices or platforms with ease.
