After iOS 8 upgrade, all my playlists on my iPhone 5 got wiped

Hi,
After upgrading to iOS 8, my playlists on my iPhone 5 got wiped. I backed up my iPhone before upgrading. On iTunes, I click on the "phone" tab on the upper right corner and check my playlist that's "On this phone" and everything is there. I tried syncing my phone to no avail. How do I recover my playlists? I have an extensive music collection and this will take me weeks to redo this manually. Please help!!!
Thanks.

I had the same problem, but 24 hours after the upgrade. I have tried restoring from my ITunes backup from before the upgrade, to no avail. I also bought a 3rd party software which can read my backup, and I see all the text messages there, but when I restore it with that software, they still don't appear on the phone. Very strange.

After iOS 5 upgrade my "artists" are all screwed up on my iPhone but are fine on my iTunes. ANY SOLUTIONS?? HELP!!

After iOS 5 upgrade my "artists" are all screwed up on my iPhone but are fine on my iTunes. ANY SOLUTIONS?? HELP!!

I had a similar problem to you that I have since solved.
At first only some albums/songs were missing artwork but they all showed up fine in itunes. I went into itunes and did the view where the album art is displayed next to the album in a list, middle option for viewing. I found that on several 1-2 songs did not have the artwork attached and so that was the cause of it not showing up on my iphone. However after I got all that solved I found that the artworks were all messed up. Much like you described many songs had the complete wrong artwork and some songs on the same album had different artworks or the same artwork showed up on multiple albums.
I could only come up with resyncing my iphone to solve it. I only use one playlist for my iphone so that I can sort of do manual management and only have to deal with one playlist. So I unchecked the playlist and did a sync to clear off all the audio. Then I rechecked the playlist and did a sync to reload everything and after that was done everything appeared correctly.
I didn't notice if this was affecting any of my purchased albums, I don't have that many so I didn't think about it but affected a lot of them. I hope this helps in some way and that you can get it working again.

IPAD2 very slow after IOS 8 upgrade

After IOS 8 upgrade many aplications ( Safari, Facebook, etc) load very, very slow (comparing with 7 version) , with a significant delay of more than 10 seconds...
Who can I solve this problem? Any workaround?
PD
Apple should better test the software before delivering.
Thanks.

Here's the list of the most annoying issues that affect me since updating my iPad 2 64GB w/Cellular iPad to IOS 8:
EXTREMELY SLOW - When opening apps, or switching between them - We are talking just the built-in apps. Mail, Safari, Settings....
Extremely slow Wi-Fi AND broadband. The Wi-Fi is the worst though. Horrible. Page load times are 2 to 4x slower than my wife's iPad.
Battery life reduced by at least 25%. Used to make it all day long, now I am having to plug it in.
Heat - It is working so hard that the processor is heating up. That can't be healthy for it, and surely the majority of the power issues stem from this.
Copy/Paste not functioning correctly between browser windows. Oh this is frustrating. I just want to paste the URL of one website I am on to Facebook, for instance. Even though I COPY, it's pasting in info I clipped a earlier in the day to one browser tab, but if I open another one, it will paste the correct information. You never know what you are going to get.
Cannot post a photo to facebook by hitting the camera icon when leaving a reply or making a post (using web browser version)... It starts the upload, then just stops. I *CAN* go to photos, then SHARE it to facebook, but that doesn't allow me to post a photo along with a reply.
Multiple app crashes per day. This I can deal with. It's nothing new, it's just more frequent. Safari and Mail seem to be the major culprits. It wouldn't be so bad except it takes 2-4 seconds to reopen the crashed app. Sometimes as much as 10 seconds.
And that's just the annoying ones....

JBL Radial dock no longer works on iPhone 4 after iOS 5 upgrade.

JBL Radial dock no longer charges my iPhone 4 after iOS 5 upgrade however I still Can play music.
Any help on that ?

OK a bit of success over the weekend. Not sure if it will help you guys. So i have an IPHONE 3gs and it would not play any music through the JBL but it would ring (through the JBL speaker) and charge while connected.
I sync'ed through itunes and made sure i had the latest version of both itunes and the IOS on the phone. Then pushed some podcasts and albums down from my computer to the iphone through the computer.
This must have sone something as now everythign works fine. all radio and music apps now play through the JBL.
Hope this helps.

Can't sync audiobooks after IOS 5 upgrade.

After IOS 5 upgrade I am unable to Sync my iphone 4 either by WiFi or connected via USB.
Itunes becomes un responsive after "Determining tracks to sync". Have been able to sync only after disabling Audiobooks sync.
SO far have done the following.
- Changed the USB cable
- Re "Keep Library Origanized"
- Created new playlist with 1 audiobook.
Itunes crashes everytime.
Have been able to sync my ipad 2 & nano with no issues.
Anyone have any ideas before I toast my iphone & start from scratch?

Nothing syncs if I have sync audiobooks turned on.
First I didn't know what the problem was and I even wiped my iPhone and started from scrach (what a pain it was).
Nothing. No music, no Apps, no ringtones, no audiobooks.
I installed some apps via the app store, and some audiobooks with audible app.
But the rest still didn't work.
Then I clicked "Tranfer purchases from ...'s iPhone" on iTunes and some of my music and ringtones started to transfer to the iPhone!! Partially. I had to click it again to get the rest of the music and ringtones. But the audiobooks didn't transfer. Not even from a playlist.
After I unchecked Sync Audiobooks, I managed to get some apps transfered to the iPhone but they're still "Waiting" not "Loading." Every time I click on sync a little bit of the apps transfer, but then their status goes back to "loading."
My biggest problem is that I have non Audible audiobooks. These I don't know how to put in the iphone.

After IOS 8 upgrade IPad 2 don't start

Hi,
After IOS 8 upgrade my IPad 2 don't start and just show this screen and nothing works.

My ipad2 is having the same problem. I can get it to start up by plugging the charger in. I can then unplug it and it is working - but very slow and prone to randomly shutting things down.

Itunes taking more time to Sync after IOS 6 upgrade

itunes taking more time to Sync apps data after IOS 6 upgrade in iphone 4s. Also itunes is getting hanged and is very slow. I tried twice and still having the same issue.

I also noticed that. Even with a cable connection. Just a small pdf file hangs forever.
Forever ... 12/15 seconds maybe? It's a long time really, for such a small sync.
File transfer not so much! That behaves normally here, as one would expect with iOS5 and previous versions before iTunes 10.7.
It's the first steps. Doing whatever it is doing. Those are definitely slower now. It takes a while until it starts the actual transfer.
