Hello:
I've de-authorized all my devices and re-authorized only the ones I currently have, but on my brand new 2021 MacBook Pro, I put a check in "Sync Library" and it starts with "Loading iCloud Music Library" which literally can take over a day, but always fails with "An Error Occurred"
Please help! I am at a complete loss.
MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 12.3
Thanks for the reply, no VPN and I did authorize the computer before Sync. No other third party security software, standard Apple build. I started another sync yesterday at 2pm ET, it's still spinning now.
Have you rebooted your router lately? Can't hurt. If you turn off sync library can you access the iTunes Store? Is your Apple Music subscription library visible at https://music.apple.com/? Presumably you had an active subscription on another computer before you got this one?

Most peculiar then. Have you checked for updates to Monterey? You can try holding down option+cmd as you launch Music which opens it in safe mode. It may help, but I don't recall seeing these symptoms before. Transferring the working library from another system so you start with everything already in place might work better for you.

So it turns out this whole disaster was fixed by logging out and back into the iTunes store, even though I was already logged in correctly.
Did you authorize the computer before enabling sync library? Do you have a VPN or any third party security software? See Move your iTunes/Music library to a new computer - Apple Community.

I reboot my router regularly, I can fully access my Library at the website, yes, active subscription on another Macbook Pro.
Thanks for the suggestions, much appreciated!
Good news. I shall have to remember that for another time.

"Loading iCloud Music Library" takes forever, then times out with "An Error Occurred"
