My playlists do not sync correctly after I sync my iPhone to iTunes.

I have one playlist that I created on my iPhone with four albums in it. When I synced it to my computer, the playlist on the iPhone only had four songs on it, one from each album. However, when I looked at the playlist on the computer, it had all the songs on it. This happens whenever I create a playlist on my iPhone and then sync with my computer.

I have this exact problem, I switched to ios5 on my iPhone 4 and tried syncing it with my mac mini. All the playlists are complete on itunes but for some reason 75% of the playlists are empty on the phone but the music all there.
I've tried everything you have but I think the only thing left to do is remove all the songs from iTunes and then re add them and recreate all the new playlists.

  • (ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly.   Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.

    (ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly.   Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.
    I mostly use technology for education and professional audiovisuals and lights.
    I don't sync  music because I use music from at least 4 different computers. (manually mange music)
    I use my iPad to play performance tracks for church and a local gospel group out of our church, Won4Christ.
    I chose to buy the iPad because the laptop of one of the group members (dellxps running iTunes) was randomly losing and mixing up music and I wanted a more stable option that was bigger than my iPod touch.
    I tried to add some data to music libraries that I previously added to my iPad, but the data only shows up when looking at the device in iTunes.
    Wifi sync has not worked on either my laptop or desktop ( both running windows 7 enterprise 64 and newest iTunes) not really a big issue, but very annoying
    When browsing through library playlist albums on the iPad, random artwork shows up on playlists with no artwork that you touch while dragging, and it does not go away until you change to another navigation tab and back.
    Random songs out of hundreds that I added showed up in iTunes grayed out with a sync circle beside them.  Those songs would play back okay on the iPad but were unplayable through the iTunes device view.  I had to delete the songs manually through the library along with the playlist and add them again. 
    These seem to be major stability bugs in the "new" music app and iTunes.  My only option right now seems to be to delete the songs that I want to change and re-add them with the changes already applied rather than changing the id3 tags and artwork on the existing music. I hope apple will release updates to resolve these issues. 
    Thank you for actually making it to the end of this manuscript of annoyances.

    Just wondered if anyone had any other suggestions.

    My MacBook Pro keyboard not working correctly after Win7 bootcamp installation.
    Installation went well but when I boot either with OSx or Win it always keeps Windows keyboard.
    How can I have Mac keyboard in OS boot and Win keyboard in Win boot?

    Hi - I have the exact same model as your MacBook and had a few questions as mine is acting up. I upgraded the ram to 8gb (2x 4GB ram) and ever since then my computer has not been running as smoothly and the start up time is horrendous. Have you encountered this problem? And if so how did you fix? What would you advise me do?
    I was thinking of reverting back to the original factory 4GB then rebooting the entire computer. Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

    Yes my particular issue is not like yours. However, there have been many other laptop users experiencing similar problem to yours after 3.10 kernel. Mostly it seems to be bumblebee users that experience your problem with the blank screen. We do know that nvidia have yet to make their official drivers work with kernel 3.10 and up. The drivers in the Arch repository have been patched to work with 3.10. From what I have seen, this also only seem to be affecting laptops with newer nvidia gpu's. I fear there is not much to do with this problem until nvidia give official 3.10 kernel support.
    My suggestion would be to stick with 3.9.9 kernel and the drivers that work with it, and don't upgrade those packages until nvidia has addressed these issues. If you have a look at the nvidia forums you will see quite a number of topics mentioning black screen when starting x on 3.10 kernel, and also a thread for the system dying. Reading some of the threads there may help you keep up to date on whether or not the issue seem to be solved.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Can not update apps after IOS8 update on iPhone 4s

    Can not update apps after IOS8 update on iPhone 4s
    I can no longer update apps on my iPhone 4s after the IOS 8 update. The IOS 8 update took a very long time to complete, maybe 12 hours, and afterwards, it worked but updating packages were very slow. Package updates have since been problematic and about 4 days ago, it stopped being able to update any packages. I click on them to update and they never make any progress. I have 2.8 Gbytes free and I keep deleting more and more packages, pictures, etc. It seems like, from the amount of stuff that I have deleted, I should have more than 2.8 Gbytes free.
    Is anyone else having this kind of problem?

    16GB iPhone4: Go to Settings, scroll down to iTunes & App Stores and touch. At the top of the next page it shows: Apple ID. Touch this. Select Sign Out. Your Apple ID will go away. Re-enter Apple ID and password. Try App Store again.
       Other solutions were to go to Settings:General:Date&Time and turn off auto-update, then change date to next year. This didn't work for me, nor a lot of other users on the forums. It took reading a lot of threads to find the log-out, log-in solution. Even on the official Apple Website all I saw was: Make sure your connection is working, battery is charged, desktop is plugged in when you try to sync. OK I exaggerate, but with all the users posting this problem, you'd think they'd post their solutions when they work with a Tech Help call.

  • Software not installed correctly to communicate with ipod/iphone. This message appears when itunes is opened

    software not installed correctly to communicate with ipod/iphone. please install again

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I followed the steps given and ended up with just email addresses showing in my contacts even though I have phone numbers and snail mail in my Outlook Contacts. Using  Windows 7

    I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I used the knowldge document and set it up to transfer my Outlook contacts to the iphone using itunes.
    In contacts on the iphone I only see the email addresses.
    Yet in Outlook I have email, snail mail and phone numbers.
    I followed the knowledge document from iphone.
    I did it once, didn't work so deleted all the contacts from the phone and tried again. Same result. I have a PC using Windows 7 64 bit.

    You can't access an Exchange account via ActiveSync with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac.
    You can access a MM account with Outlook on your PC at work and keep your MM email account server stored mailboxes synced between your PC at work, your iPhone, and the MM "cloud". Not sure about syncing MM contact info and calendar events with Outlook at the same time with an Exchange account.
    This will not provide for syncing your Exchange account contact info and calendar events with the Addresss Book and iCal on your Mac because the accounts are separate.
    You can access an Exchange account and a MM account at the same time with the iPhone's mail client, and sync contact info and calendar events over the air with both accounts at the same time. You can view combined contact info or separately for each account, and the same for calendar events.

  • Album view does not render correctly after synced changes

    I was correcting the album rendering of some soundtrack albums today and noticed that albums do not group correctly across computers when the metadata is synced using Match.  I am hoping someone can confirm they get the same results and possibly offer a fix.
    Problem
    Forcing a compilation album to render as a single album instead of multiple albums by setting the "Album Artist" and "Part of Compilation" fields does not sync across computers despite the fact that all of the relevant metadata syncs correctly.
    Setup
    Laptop and Desktop sitting next to each other.  Both running Windows 8.1 and iTunes 11.1.3.8 logged into the same iTunes account for all services.  (I am curious about running the experiment on all Macs or cross-platform, but all I have are PCs.)
    Experiment
    Step 1- Pick an album with various artists such as a soundtrack and confirm that it renders as one complete album in "Album" view in iTunes on both computers.
    Step 2- Using the desktop, select all songs on the album and change the "Album Artist" field to be blank on all of them by selecting that field and removing the text in that field.  Also set "Part of Compilation" on the "Options" tab to "No".  Click OK and the album should be rendered as multiple albums for each track on the soundtrack.  It is easiest to see this by staying in "Album" view and searching for the album name in the search tool in the upper right corner of iTunes.
    Step 3- Go to the laptop and search for the album name in the "Album" view.  It will still be rendered as 1 album instead of multiple albums for each track as it is on the desktop.  Click on any song on the album and confirm that the "Album Artist" field is blank and "Part of Compilation" is clear (the metadata should sync within a few seconds).  With these settings, the album should render as multiple tracks- not a single album.  Closing and re-opening iTunes, updating Match or updating Genius does not re-render the album view as separate albums.
    Step 4- Using the laptop, set the "Album Artist" field back to "Various Artists".  The desktop will get that update, but not re-render the album as single album.  The only way to "fix" the desktop is to reset the "Album Artist" field to "Various Artists" from the desktop.
    My Conclusion
    iTunes renders album views only when a change is made that would result in a change to the view and that rendering is only stored locally.  iTunes does not correctly update album rendering when new meta-data that should cause a change in the view is received via Match.  This is a problem because you cannot fix an album rendering on one computer and have that correction sync to your other computers.  You have to "fix" the view on each computer individually.
    Possible Workaround
    Turn off iTunes Match and remove the iTunes database and all music on all computers but one.  Using the one computer, make all required fixes and then recreate the iTunes database using Match on each of the other computers.
    Any help or comments is much appreciated.

    I have the same problem with PDFs created in Illustrator CS3. The bitmaps inside the PDF get rendered wrongly -- inverted or decolored.
    One fix is to use ZIP instead of JPEG for the compression method when saving the file as an Adobe PDF.
    I think it is a bug in Preview 5 (already filed it with Apple). With Preview 4.2 (Leopard) or using Acrobat 8.1.3, the PDF renders fine.

  • ICloud status not displayed correctly after changing tags

    Hi everybody,
    I have just below 25 000 songs in the iTunes library that I use for iTunes Match (my complete library is actually much larger but I created a separate library to stay below the 25 000 songs limit).
    After changing some tags in iTunes (I had some artists listed twice, once in the format "<last name>, <first name>" and once "<first name> <last name>" and wanted to harmonize this) the iCloud status of most of my songs is no longer displayed correctly. If I create a smart playlist containing all "matched" songs it finds only about 1000 songs, a playlist for "uploaded" songs contains only about 250 songs, the vast majority of my songs simply have NO iCloud status whatsoever (not even "waiting").
    Trying to fix this, I selected all of my songs, option clicked and chose "Add it iCloud". After waiting some time, nothing changed. The funny thing is: iTunes match reports that 24 669 songs (the correct number) are available in iCloud.
    So basically everything works and I am also able to download all of my songs on my iPhone. Still, it's a little bit annoying that the iCloud status is not displayed correctly and smart playlists filtering for iCloud status don't work. Does anybody know a way to fix this?
    Thanks for any help,
    Andreas

    The reason why the C3850 switch stack is showing as standalone in LMS CiscoView is because
    it's returning sysObjectID as standalone.
    It should return as 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.1745 --cat38xxstack
    While, if you poll it for sysObjectID, the Catalyst 3850 stack switches will be returning OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.1641.
    This is an IOS bug "CSCul00003 - Incorrect Sys OID for Cat3850 Stack device".
    Unless this bug is fixed, LMS will not be able to show it as stack device.
    You can try to check if you can manually change the device identity to cat38xxstack from Inventory > add/edit device > edit identity.
    Else we need to wait for the fix of this bug.
    -Thanks

  • ICloud playlist are not updated correctly, iCloud playlist are not updated correctly

    I have configured multiple iTunes playlists on my iMac (which is using iTunes Match).
    Some of these are not properly updated on my iPhone 4S.
    For example I had a playlist folder Genre and in there a Sports (just a simple playlist, not even a smart one).
    I decided to move the Sports playlist to the toplevel so that I can more quickly access it when running.
    Well this playlist just remains in the Genre folder on my iPhone... I tried killing the Music.app, rebooting the iPhone.
    Nothing works.
    I renamed the folder from Genre to Test on my iMac and now I see the Sports list in the Test folder on my iPhone.
    What is going on ? How can I properly organize my playlists/smartplaylists so that they sync correctly (including re-arranging or renaming playlists) ?

    When I disable iTunes match on my iPhone4S, quit the Music.app and then re-enable the iTunes Match on my iPhone4S it suddenly starts working. I don't want to do that everytime I changed my playlist on my iMac!!!
