Part 4. How to Fix Apple Music Won't Sync with Peloton

Let's say you've synced your Apple Music playlists to Peloton, but they're not showing up. There might be a few reasons why. Here's how to troubleshoot and fix the issue:

FIX PELOTON NOT SYNC WITH APPLE MUSIC:

1. Ensure you're using the same Apple Music account that you used during the workout.
2. Check if you've used a different Apple ID with Apple Music. The playlist will only appear on Peloton if it matches.
3. Verify that your Peloton profile is set to public. Private profiles will hide playlists as well.

Since the playlists still aren't appearing, you may need to perform a factory reset on your Peloton device:

Note: Performing a factory reset will erase all data and detach your Membership. Proceed with caution.

1. On your Peloton device, go to "Settings" > "System" > "Factory Reset."
2. Confirm the factory reset. This will restore your Peloton device to its original settings.
3. After the factory reset, you'll need to reconnect your Peloton Guide remote.
1. Remove the batteries from your remote.
2. Press and hold the center button on the remote for 15 seconds.
3. Place the batteries back into the remote.
4. Check if the remote is now in pairing mode.
1. Follow the on-screen instructions to pair the remote with your Peloton device.
2. Go through the activation process again to use your Peloton.

Now, after going through the activation process again, you check your Peloton playlists, and voila! Your Apple Music playlists are now visible and ready to use during your workouts.

Pro Tips:

• Ensure your Peloton device has a stable internet connection during the syncing process.
• Sometimes, it can take a few minutes for songs to appear on third-party sites like Apple Music due to caching. Give it some time and check again later to see if your playlists show up.
• If a song is not available in the iTunes Store, it will appear greyed out in your playlist on Apple Music. Unfortunately, you won't be able to access these tracks in your Apple Music library.
• If the issue persists, you can reach out to Peloton support for further assistance.
