Add and download items in iTunes on PC
As soon as you join Apple Music, you can add songs, albums, playlists, TV shows, movies, and music videos from Apple Music to your iCloud Music Library, which is accessible whenever you’re signed in to Apple Music.
After you add an item to your iCloud Music Library, you can download it to your computer or device to play at any time, even when you’re offline.
Add an item to your iCloud Music Library
In the iTunes app on your PC, choose an option (Music or Movies, for example) from the pop-up menu at the top left, then click Library.
Right-click an item, then choose Add to iCloud Music Library.
If you don’t see this option, either you’re not signed in to Apple Music or the iCloud Music Library option is not selected in preferences.
Download an item to your device
Important: Items you download from Apple Music can’t be burned to a disc or added to a device, such as iPad or iPod. Items can only be downloaded to a device directly from Apple Music. See Intro to syncing.
In the iTunes app on your PC, choose an option (Music or Movies, for example) from the pop-up menu at the top left, then click Library.
Click the iCloud Download button next to the item.
To view only your downloaded items, select Downloaded in the sidebar on the left.
If you don’t renew your Apple Music subscription, downloaded items remain on your computer, but you can’t play them until you rejoin.
Tip: To add songs to a playlist without adding them to your library, choose Edit > Preferences, click General, then deselect “Add songs to Library when adding to playlists.”
