Can smart playlists sync onto ipod

can smart playlist be synced onto an ipod

I had the same issue. If they are selected in the Music tab, try duplicating, not just recreating, the playlist and deleting the old one. This worked for me and I have not had the issue again.

  • How can I make all my Smart Playlists sync onto my iPhone?

    I recently updated my iTunes software to 10.6 or whatever the newest update was and since then, I have been unable to sync all my playlists onto my iPhone. The Top 25 Most Played, Recently Added, and 90s Music won't sync to my phone and I'm hoping someone can help me fix the problem. All the regular playlists are syncing just fine and 2 of the Smart Playlists I have are also syncing just fine. I've tried recreating the playlists but it still won't work. Any ideas?

  • There is an album on a smart playlist on my ipod that is not on the music section of my ipod. I am not synced to any computer. How do I delete this album from the playlist and presumably my computer?

    Thanks!

    You will need to restore your phone as a new one using the itunes on your computer.  This WILL erase everything on the phone but it will let you change the name of the phone and then you can add content to it.

  • Why won't all of my smart playlists sync from itunes to my ipad?

    Why won't all of my smart playlists sync? They show up in the playlist screen of my ipad music app. When I click on the playlist, there are no songs listed. I sync it again, and the playlist now shows zero songs in the list. I keep trying to sync it, and it goes back and forth from showing there are 60 songs in the playlist, which I can't play, to showing zero songs. Please help.

    Yes, sorry, you are correct, it was iTunes Match. I purchased storage on iTunes Match (probably a bad idea), because I had over 1000 songs on my i-phone 4S -which is eating up my storage space. Well, anyway...After I purchased it, I followed the instructions: go to: Settings, "open" music, "Turn on" iTunes Match. After I did that, I opened up the Music App -on my phone -ALL of my playlists were gone and only 208 songs showed... I messed up my phone once before and I had to log into my i-Tunes account (on my computer) and "reset" to another date. I would like to do that again -if possible...
    Please help!

    Why not sync it and put what you want on it?
    Create a playlist with the music you want.
    Select the iPod in iTunes.
    Click the Music tab.
    Tick Sync music.
    Tick Selected playlists and select this playlist.
    Add/remove from this playlist and plug in the iPod.

  • Can you have sync 2 ipods to the same itunes??

    I am an itouch and my brother does to. He wanted some of the apps i bought. Can i just sync his ipod to my itunes and put the apps on his ipod??

    You can sync as many ipods as you like to one itunes library.
    Each is different and can be set to sync whatever you like.

  • So I have a gen2 8gig iPod touch and just the other day updated to 4.3 and now my pod wont show up in iTunes. Is it not compatible? Does this mean I can no longer sync my iPod??

    I can no longer sync my iPod as it does not show up in my iTunes anymore, is this because I upgraded my Itunes??

    You should still be able to sync you iPod.  Your iPod just can be updated past iOS 4.2.1.
    Assuming you have a PC, start her to get your computer to see the iPod.

  • I can no longer sync my iPod Nano.

    After installing the latest iTunes update, I can no longer sync my iPod Nano. Windows 7 says that there is no driver installed, whereas there was prior to the update. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit OS and the new iTunes version is 10.5.3.3. Thanks for your help.

  • Hi,we have had to reset our pc to its factory settings and i can no longer sync my ipod when i purchase a song.

    Hi,
    we have had to reset our pc to its factory setting and i can no longer sync my ipod when i buy a song? can anyone help? cheers.

    Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately this has not worked. I didn't have quicktime to begin with so I don't know if that makes a difference? After following the instructions, I get the "registry keys missing" problem appear again (which I've subsequently fixed again) and then when I connected the ipod I got the following message - 'Device driver software was not successfully installed'.
    I've tried windows update but this doesn't do anything as '...the service is not running'.
    Any suggestions?

  • HT1345 i have a new macbook air, can i now sync my iPod classic with iTunes on my new computer instead of the Dell I was synching with before?

    Hi  I have just aquired a new MacBook Air and I want to stop using my old Dell laptop as my itunes synch with my ipod.  Can I now sync the Ipod with the itunes account on my new Macbook?  I am worried it will take hours to synch if I choose the erase and synch option?

    Is all the content from your iTunes library on the old Dell laptop now on your MacBook air?  If you copied the entire iTunes folder and copied it over the existing iTunes folder, your iPod will still think it is being synced to the same iTunes library and there would be no need to do an erase and sync.

  • Playlists will not sync onto iPod nano 7th gen

    Since the very beginning of iPods, I subscribe to a number of podcasts that refresh in iTunes automatically. Once a day I transfer the "recently added" podcasts to a created playlist for my daily listening. This allows me to cull out music downloads from the pure podcast list. Since "podcasts" have been separated as an app, iTunes made it difficult to accomplish this. With iTunes 12 and my current iPod 7th generation, I can find no tip that will allow me to continue the practice. I want a continuously playing playlist of the most recently downloaded subscribed podcasts that can easily be refreshed and transferred to my iPod nano 7th gen at the end of each day.

    There is no Apply button there, until you change something.  Until you make a change to a setting on that screen, the button (where the Apply button is located) says Sync.
    It is somewhat difficult to understand what you are describing.  The Recently Added playlist is a smart playlist.  It comes "pre-installed" with iTunes.  However, if you right-click on it and select Edit Smart Playlist, you will see that the two rules for populating it are
    Date Added - in the last - 2 - weeks
    Genre - is not - Podcast
    Therefore, if that is the playlist you are referring to, it intentionally excludes podcast episodes.  If you want a new smart playlist that lists podcast episodes downloaded in the last two week, you can start with the Recently Added playlist.  Don't modify that playlist.  Right-click on it and select Duplicate.  Name it (the duplicate) something like "Recently Added Podcasts" (or whatever you want).  Right-click on it and select Edit Smart Playlist.  Change the rules so that they are
    Date Added - in the last - 2 - weeks <- You can change the number of weeks as desired.
    Media Kind - is - Podcast
    NOTE:  I suggest using Media Kind instead of Genre, because it more accurately identifies items that are podcasts.  Something can be a "podcast" without Genre set to Podcast.  But everything iTunes shows as a podcast MUST have Media Kind set to Podcast.
    That new smart playlist ONLY shows all podcast episodes downloaded in the last two weeks.  You can then sync that playlist, if you want them all, or use it as the source to manually update your "daily podfest" playlist, and then select that playlist on the iPod's Podcasts screen (as described in my previous reply).

  • Ipod playlists syncing onto Iphone problem

    Hello, and thanks in advance for looking at this thread!
    I got an X-mas iphone, and I'm so confused. I have created multiple playlists on my ipod, and I was hoping that I would be able to copy and sync them onto my new iphone. Problem is, when I go to drag and pull them into the Iphone on Itunes, it won't allow the transfer- Am I doing something wrong? Any help would be appreciated.
    One other quick question?:
    I have a tape deck adaptor for 2000 celica and direct link adaptor for my 2006 Rav4. Will these adaptors recognize my iphone and play music through my vehicles stereos? Will I have issues with Bluetooth in my Rav4?

    The iPhone doesn't allow "drag-and-drop" syncing. Select on the iPhone in the "devices" list in iTunes, then select the "music" tab and check the boxes for the music you want to sync. Click "apply". You'll have to do the same for anything else you want to sync (videos, photos, calendar, contacts, etc).
    As for your other question, I have no idea...
