I left the old one in the same folder but renamed that one first before copying in the one from my test account. As I also had a slow Music app, especially when a new song starts (app becomes unresponsive for a while), I tried to copy the Music Library file from the test account into the music file of my real account just to see what happened. It is about 30 times larger (900Mb vs 30 Mb). I noticed that the library file, so the file called Music Library typically located in your music folder on your iMac (in /Music/Music), was very large for my real account was way bigger than the one for my test account even though they contain the same amount of songs. I could get it to play on a test user account (where it only showed the cloud versions of my music) and it also worked on my real login account when signing out of Apple (and playing local files only). We tried everything from test accounts, re-installs, etc. IMac on Catalina 10.15.7 and an Apple Music subscription. My setup is a large music library (65k) on a NAS. Had extensive help from Apple (through chat and a few calls - quite pleased with the service I got) and eventually I came across something that worked. Using Music on a windows laptop works fine on same network. So it must be in this service, and only on a Mac. As soon as I check that back on, it keeps dropping. Then I only see my own files and playback is uninterrupted. The only way I get Music not to crash is when I uncheck the Sync Library option in settings. Safe mode - Music doesn't play then, not quite sure why.Happens both with playing own songs and streaming. Has been working fine and since a week, Apple Music just keeps quitting a minute or sometimes longer after start of playing. Have a large own library combined with streaming. It's rendering the Apple Music product completely useless for me. I have the same issue and it's driving me crazy.
