Create an Apple Music profile on Mac
After you subscribe to Apple Music, you can create an Apple Music profile that features your favorite playlists and what you’re currently listening to. You can share your profile with everyone or only friends you invite to see it.
After you create a profile, you can choose the playlists you want to share. Additionally, you can see profiles created by friends or request to follow them and see what they’re listening to.
Note: You can’t create an Apple Music profile in the Apple Music Voice Plan. Apple Music and Apple Music Voice aren’t available in all countries or regions. See the Apple Support article Availability of Apple Media Services.
Create a profile

on your Mac, click Listen Now in the sidebar on the left.Click the My Account button (looks like a photo or monogram) in the top-right corner of the window, then click Get Started.
Follow the onscreen prompts to create a user name, find and follow friends, share playlists, and more.
If you want to share music with friends only, make sure to select People You Approve in the “Choose who can follow you” area.
Click Done.
After you finish setting up your profile, you can find friends whose music profile you’d like to follow or choose who you share music with (so friends can see what you’re listening to).
