Can't download music - transfer device from other Apple ID - temporary problem 1001 I'm trying to download my Apple Music playlists on my Mac. When I'm trying to do the same on iPhone or iPad, everything works fine. But when I try to download the playlists on my Mac, it says that the device is linked to another Apple ID and that I need to transfer it. But when I press transfer, the following error message is shown: "There was a temporary problem completing your request. An unknown error occurred (1001) - try again later". I saw this article so I asked the previous owner to remove the computer from his Apple Music. He removed the laptop but the message is still there. I tried to google for a solution but found no answer so I hope someone here can help me resolve this.

Apple Music cannot connect to internet (download stops with error 7506, pages say offline) Though I have full Internet access on my PC (Ethernet as well as Internet), I cannot play Apple Music titles, it just skips the Apple Music titles and plays the first title found in my local music library When I play the same title in Apple Music Web player (same computer, just in the browser window), it works: I have already checked all my Apple music settings, it is set to synchronize with icloud everywhere using the same Apple Account. And of course I have an Apple music Abo. I had the same problem in itunes, before I installed Apple Music on my Windows 11 PC. After some synchronization time, the music library disappeared from itunes and was only visible in Apple Music app, I was hoping, that the problem disappears now, but same problem there. I also disabled the Windows Defender firewall and checked, if Apple Music is listed in the allowed application, nothing helped. Sometimes when I open Apple Music app, it even doesn't load my local library, and it says "You are offline", even though I can access the Internet using other apps on the same PC, see below screenshot:

There was a temporary problem completing your request When I try and use Apple Music on my MacBook Air M2 and go to the browse, search, radio, listen now, it just says "There was a temporary problem completing your request". I have tried signing in and out and turning off and on sync but it has not changed anything. It works on my iPhone just not on my Mac. It only will play songs in my library but they will take 5 min to load. My wifi is also stable. (no song shows up on iMovie where it says it should if any has a fix to that that would also be helpful )

See Authorization vs. association - Apple Community. I'm not sure why you are getting the error, but that box looks like Music is trying to associate your computer with your Apple ID. Have you already authorized the computer? If not you may need to do that first.
