See Turn on Sync Library with Apple Music - Apple Support and Identify cloud status icons in your music library on your Mac or PC - Apple Support. If you have a subscription to Apple Music or iTunes Match you shouldn't be syncing your iPhone over USB. See also Use Home Sharing to share media from a computer to other devices - Apple Support. You shouldn't be using Home Sharing to view your library on your iPhone, you should enable Sync Library in both your library and device so the two can share a common music collection automatically via the cloud.

Typically when you have either Apple Music or iTunes Match you will enable Sync Library (AKA iCloud Music Library) on your device so that the whole of your iCloud Music Library is available to your device. You can download some of it to the device while the rest remains in the cloud available to stream on demand. You don't need both cloud services, Apple Music includes all of the benefits of iTunes Match.

Thanks for your reply!

when I synchronize my iPhone, it seems that there are only 9 playlists visible om my iPhone. Of I push the button homesharing in Apple Music app, it takes a while and then I see all the playlists. When I stop using the app, I have to do the same procedure next time I use the app.

Can I choose the playlists I want to have in my app by myself?
