Have you ever wanted to sign out of your Apple ID without losing all the songs you downloaded from Apple Music? It can be a bit tricky, but fear not, as I'm here to guide you through the process!
When you sign out of your Apple ID on your device, the downloaded music will typically be removed. However, there's a nifty trick you can use to keep your tunes intact while switching Apple IDs.
First things first, make sure you have iCloud Music Library turned on. This feature allows you to stream and download music across all your devices using your Apple ID.
To keep your Apple Music songs when signing out of your Apple ID, follow these steps:
1. Open the "Settings" app on your Apple device.
2. Tap on your name at the top of the screen to access your Apple ID settings.
3. Scroll down and select "Music."
4. Toggle on "iCloud Music Library." This will sync your downloaded music with your iCloud account.
By enabling iCloud Music Library, your downloaded Apple Music songs will be stored in the cloud and remain accessible even if you sign out of your current Apple ID.
Now, to sign out of your Apple ID without losing your downloaded Apple Music songs:
1. Go back to the "Settings" app.
2. Scroll down and tap on "iTunes & App Store."
3. Tap on your Apple ID at the top of the screen.
4. Select "Sign Out" to log out of your current Apple ID.
After signing out, you can sign in with a different Apple ID without worrying about losing your precious music collection. Just make sure to enable iCloud Music Library on the new account to keep your songs safe and sound.
Keep in mind that while this method preserves your downloaded Apple Music songs, any playlists or songs added from Apple Music that are not downloaded for offline listening may not be accessible offline if you sign out of the current Apple ID.
In conclusion, by enabling iCloud Music Library and following these steps, you can seamlessly switch between Apple IDs without the fear of losing your downloaded Apple Music content. Enjoy your music on your terms, and happy listening!
