iTunes not copying all selected songs to Mac folder

[MacWorks916]

I would like to copy songs from a playlist to a folder on my Mac. Something I have done countless times in the past. But now it won’t copy all the songs selected, just a small portion of them. Initially the playlist, which has 1,946 songs would only copy 586 and then just stop. Tried copying directly to a usb drive same thing. So tried just copying 10 songs but only 4 copied.

For whatever reason, it isn’t allowing me to copy all the selected songs. Here’s a screen shot of it.

No solution but an interesting comparison. I also have a backup MacBook Pro Intel running a slightly older MacOS with the same songs and playlists in iTunes. I was able to copy all of those same songs onto my memory card with no problem using that computer. But my MBP M4 Max MacOS 15.7.3 still won't copy the same songs.

Looks like an @Apple bug that needs to be addressed.
