Hi guys.

I'm having an absolute nightmare here. This really should be dead simple and I shouldn't have to a) google it, and then b) need to ask for help after google yields no real solution.

I have iTunes on my Mac with about 200 albums, multiple playlists consisting of individual songs and mixes I've collected over the years.

I also have an iPhone, which I've been using with Apple Music for a while, but now I'm trying to go back to using my manually created playlists, and add some new ones I've just created but I cannot find a way for me to get the new playlists I've created in iTunes with music I've added manually onto my iPhone without disabling Apple Music and losing all the music I've downloaded.

I work in IT. I design IT solutions for web based applications so I consider myself pretty competent, so why have Apple created this mess when it should be as simple as 'drag and drop'.

Any help or advice you can offer would be great, thanks.

Adam
