HT1386 Why Won't my iPhone reflect updates to changes I've made to iTunes playlists on my PC?

When I first got my iPhone, I synced my music and playlists FROM the computer TO the phone. Worked fine. Now every sync makes my PC iTunes match the phone instead of the other way around.  The sync only works in one direction & now has deleted some of my favorite playlists! Super aggravating.  I just wanted my iPhone playlist to match the one I had made (ad updated) on the PC.  I tried deleting the playlist from the phone with the intention of refreshing it from the PC that way.  When I synced, the phone erased the playlist (one I really liked) from the PC instead. What. The. ****??

If the iPhone is not recognized in iTunes for Windows. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If that does not help, there have been issues with the latest version of iTunes. You may need to remove and reinstall iTunes. If you do, follow the instructions in this support document exactly. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923

    why won't my iphone 4s update to ios 6.1.3?

    Your iPhone is connected to your computer but are you using iTunes to try to update or are you looking at the Settings>General>Software update button in the phone?
    If you are not, I suggest you connect to iTunes and try to download and install iOS 6.1.3. using iTunes and the computer's internet connection.  Also check that you have the latest version of iTunes installed in your computer.

  • Why won't my iPhone receive updates to Outlook Calendar appointments?

    I am able to receive an Outlook appointment request on my iPhone. It appears as an attachment called something like "mime-attachment.ics". When I click this, details of the event pop up and I am able to add it to my calendar. Works like a charm. The problem I'm having now is, if the appointment is updated in Outlook and updates are then sent to attendees, I receive the email with an attachment again BUT instead of the details being updated, it appears exactly the same as the original event (same date, same time) instead of showing the new event information.
    Does anyone know a way around this that does not involve syncing... iTunes... none of that nonsense...??!

    It seems the recurring theme on these types of problems is the use of a POP email account. Something originates in corrupting or blunting the full affect of an ics event from Outlook through this method.
    I guess just thinking about it, this makes some sense in that Microsoft has probably not fully developed their ActiveSync to work properly with POP accounts, especially w/in Mac OS (if you use that). It's understandable that their motivation is towards Exchange interoperability and even further, the need to support an "old" technology like POP.
    Sorry I couldn't be more help, but perhaps you'll just have to continue to work around this until your migration to Exchange is complete.

  • Why won't my iphone download the apple updates from the apple store?

    Why won't my iphone download updates from apple store?

    Hi cindyhildy, follow these instructions below it has fixed my issue and should work for you.
    Open app store, get the message "unable to connect to iTunes store", go to settings, change year to the last year it will let you (think I went to 2038), double tap home button and close app store,  go to home screen and then open app store and touch updates panel, should get a message "cannot get secure connection to server or something like that" go back to settings and reset the year to current.

  • I downloaded the latest camera raw version, 8.2, but my DNG convetor still only reflects 7.1, why won't my DNG convetor update to 8.2?

    I downloaded the latest camera raw version, 8.2, but my DNG convetor still only reflects 7.1, why won't my DNG convetor update to 8.2?

    dng converter and cr are two different programs.
    while they both do the same thing, the dng converter is a stand-alone app that does not install into another adobe program and cr installs into another adobe app like photoshop, lightroom etc.
    and the latest version (as of 6/25/14) is cr 8.5.
    download the dng converter is you have an app that's to old to accept cr 8.2 (or cr 8.5).

  • HT4972 Why won't my iPhone 4 recognize my sim card after update?

    Why won't my iPhone 4 recognize my sim card after update?
    I updated my iPhone 4 over wifi and it went through the process fine, until it switched back on and now refusese to recognize my sim card!
    Any ideas?

    Usually this means the phone was previously jailbroken or hacked to unlock it from the carrier it was locked to, and the update re-locked it to that carrier.
