My Apple Music is linked. When I ask Google to play Apple Music it plays. When I ask to play a video playlist it plays something in an me music but never MY playlist. What’s up?

Strike the word “video” I meant when I want to play my playlists. Not sure how the word video got in there.

Hi there Remi50,

 

Thanks for reaching out to our community.

 

It's unusual you can't play your playlists specifically, but you can play individual tracks. Don't worry. Let's figure this out.

 

Is Apple Music set as your default music service? If not, check this article about Linking your music services and setting your default service, and let me know if that makes a difference.

 

You can also try explicitly mentioning the name of your playlist along with Apple Music, something like: "Hey Google, play [Playlist name] on Apple Music."

 

If you don't see any difference after trying these steps, I recommend restarting your device by following this article about rebooting Google Nest or home speaker or display.

 

Let me know how it goes.

 

Regards,

Angel.

We are having similar problems.  We have Apple Music linked and is has worked well, including for our Playlists.  But my daughter has created new playlists, and they will not play.  We tried unlinking and re-linking Apple Music, and still no luck.

Yes I’m regretting this whole Google nest purchase. Should have went with Eco

I am having a similar issue, looking for help. I have Apple Music subscription, it is linked, but a week ago stopped recognizing one of my son’s playlists after he changed the name of it. Google will play all older playlists. We unlinked Apple Music and relinked. We unplugged mini speaker and waited 60 seconds. Google still does not want to recognize it. We tried changing the name back, still didn’t work. We asked it to play a different playlist, Google played it, we took that name and renamed the one it wouldn’t play and still wouldn’t play this one specific playlist. Now we deleted it in frustration and tried a new playlist and no good. It is like Google recognizes some parts of the title but not all parts. I have tried renaming the playlist several times and Google always plays something else.
