"Is there a way that I can play music out of my Apple Music Library. All my list appears in Traktor, but there are no songs in Traktor. While in Apple Music they are there."

If you're talking about the paid Apple Music M4P format files, the basic answer is no. DRM protection prevents Traktor from playing those files out of your Apple Music. iTunes store purchases of course are compatible.

TRAKTOR DJ 2 and TRAKTOR PRO 3 supported audio formats include: MP3, WAV, AIFF, FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, non-DRM AAC. TRAKTOR PRO 3 also supports Audio CD. However, Apple Music songs are formatted in DRM AAC with .m4p extension, so you can't import them to TRAKTOR DJ software directly.

If you have Pazu Apple Music Converter , things are much easier. Pazu Apple Music Converter can help you get rid of Apple Music DRM protection and convert the M4P songs to M4A, MP3, AAC, FLAC, WAV and AIFF.
