I had to rebuild my iTunes library from scratch. By doing this, I have lost all of the Apple Music tracks I had added to my library as a subscriber to that service. I had quite a few of them and have no record of what tracks I had added. Is there any way to, at a minimum, get a list of them so I can re-add them to my library or does Apple Music have a way to restore the tracks I added directly?
Got a tip for us?
