I manually sync my music to my iPhone. I synced it all back and the album art is off on my phone but not on “music” on ny mac.

Anyone else have this issue?
 
Yes. Not sure whether it’s an iOS26 problem or a macOS26 problem (or both). I also manually sync all my music (on an MBP M1) to my iPhone. When I got my new 17PM, it copied over all the music (400+GB!) from my 14PM without issue, and it played fine in my car with CarPlay. But, when I plugged my new phone into my MBP (updated to macOS 26) just now and tried to add new music to it, nothing happened. I then discovered that all the music on my new phone was GONE. Not a huge problem, I thought—I could just start over and add music manually again. But, with the first few albums I added, all had the wrong cover art (from other albums in my collection). WTF, Apple???
 
UPDATE: I restarted my phone and the MBP hoping that whatever garbage in the cache would be cleared. Tried copying over several albums, and this time about 2/3 of them were fine. I deleted the bad ones and then re-added them one-by-one, which worked out just fine.

Well, after updating my 17PM and MBP M1 to 26.0.1, this issue is still not fixed. I just synced 2 albums to my phone and both showed the incorrect album art on the phone. 😡
