IPad Pro Music

Upon purchasing a new IPad Pro I used the backup from my older IPad Air. Unfortunately all of the music in my ITunes account did not download and I just noticed this. How do I get the rest of the music in my ITunes account onto my IPad Pro?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 16

In general, Music is not backed up.


Purchases from the iTunes Store can be re-downloaded from the store if still available, and any music obtained from other sources such as ripped CDs and other music stores, should be kept on a computer and can be synced from there directly. click here ➜ Redownload music - Apple Support

Music added to your library from the Apple Music subscription service should automatically re-populate on the new iPad in the Music app when logged in with the same Apple ID as before but would need to be re-downloaded to the device manually.
