Apple Music Remote app on iPhone stuck on Loading...
We use the Apple iPhone Remote app to control music that is playing on my iMac and connected to a stereo. Recently, the Remote app has started to malfunction. I am running Big Sur 11.3.1 on the iMac and the iPhone is XR. The problem relates to any iPhone authorized to access my library of songs (3 or 4 other devices).
The app opens and allows me to connect to my library. If a number of songs are loaded into the Up Next function (via the iMac), I can control the basic functions (pause, play, skip song, volume), but I can no longer access the songs on my iMac hard drive. When I go to Up Next - Add - Artists, the iPhone gets stuck on Loading... This prevents me from loading any additional songs to Up Next.
I can load entire playlists that are available, but that is it. Is this an incompatibility between Remote and Big Sur?
iPhone XR, iOS 14
