Disappearing of music overnight

My Apple Music library was completely intact yesterday. Overnight, all my songs and playlists disappeared. I’m signed into the correct Apple Account, my Apple Music subscription is active, Sync Library is ON, and my library is also empty on music.apple.com. I don’t have a Mac or PC containing the original library.

exactly the same happened to me on my Macbook - signed out and signed back in (have a full backup of my songs all legally purchased through apple over 15 + years - I open Music on my Macbook and Library is empty

That was after the last update I did for Tahoe 26.6.2 a few days ago

Tried loading my backup into the correct folder username/music/music


nothing ...... just an empty screen

At least I have a backup and I won't update my iPhone as it also has my music on ot and is prompting for an update
