Hopefully this is the right part of the forum to ask this.
Back in the olden days of inserting CDs into computers and ripping them, i imported a lot of my owned music. Then imported that into iTunes.
Today on my iPad I noticed some songs from albums were missing, or out of order, and there were artists I wanted to delete.
So, I went to my Mac and to the file location in Finder where music is. There, I deleted some files, re-numbered them etc.
But nothing happened in Apple Music. So instead I just made the changes there directly, which has worked great.
What I’m confused about is how these sync up - how often does Music reference the offline folder, if ever? I wanted to make changes in the folder so that if I ever restore a backup, the stuff deleted from AM directly won’t be re-added. But as I did a lot of it in AM that’s not going to update the offline files, so I’m not really sure what happens here.
