how to sync existing playlist to itunes

Hey HalSF,
iTunes allows you to sync music with your devices in several different ways, including by playlist. See the iPhone user manual for how to -

Specifically page 19.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,

Have you subscribed to iTunes Match? There is a bug that can sometimes create hundreds of duplicate empty playlists. I've two scripts which might help you clean up: KillEmptyPlaylists and KillTopLevelPlaylists. This post describes a technique for resetting iTunes Match to stop it happening again.

How to sync an iPhone with iTunes 12?

How to sync an iPhone with iTunes 12?
i downloaded today iTunes 12 and i wanted now to sync my iPhone with it... but i'm lost. i cannot find my iPhone on iTunes 12. How to sync it?

OK. So when you plug it in, what happens?
When I plug in my iPhone, along the top row of icons, a new one appears in the shape of a phone. If I click on that, I get a sidebar with info on my phone and to the right is information similar to what I'd see in previous versions of iTunes. I have it set up to sync when connected, so the sync starts immediately.
(Edit...)
Here's the icon that I get when I plug the phone in:

I had the same question. Someone answered perfectly here https://discussions.apple.com/message/20575126#20575126
The answer was click View > Show sidebar. Devices and playlists will display in the left sidebar once again. Copy playlists into iPod as usual.

HT5114 how to sync iphone info to itune and how to recover info from itune?

How to sync the phone with Itunes, and how to recover the info?
Can someone advise me?

What sort of info do you want to get off the phone ? If it's iTunes purchases then you should be able to copy them to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases
If it's music from other sources then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
Syncing a device with your computer's iTunes will copy content to the phone from your computer, it won't copy things back from the phone.
If you haven't synced the phone to that computer before then you may find this user-tip helpful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

I cannot sync new playlists from iTunes PC to my iPhone

I have read through many Apple support topics and how-tos, I have tried everything I can to get iTunes to copy over/ sync new playlists from my PC. Doesn't matter if I select manual choosing of music, or select individual playlists, update my preferences, or drag the playlists over to the iPhone... every single time I try syncing the result is that those new playlists NEVER APPEAR on my iphone. I do usb syncing, wifi syncing... nothing will work.
This is incredibly frustrating!! Now I understand why so many of my friends are just giving up on Apple products.
Why does such a SIMPLE process not work???

Apples update to iPhoto 11 (9.4.1) seems to have corrected the probem! I can selectively sync photo albums and events again. If anyone else is having the problem update to 9.4.1 !

How to recover a playlist on iTunes 12?

I accidentally deleted a playlist of mine when I wasn't paying attention and going for a song to delete.
I have checked other Questions and they all relate to iTunes 11 not 12, I have tried importing the iTunes Music Library.XML file again, which brought up a lot of old playlist I hadn't seen in ages but not the deleted one.
I still have the playlist on my phone and can stopped it from syncing so it won't get wiped and have done a "Back up".
On the iTunes 11 questions I saw that you can right click on the playlist whilst in the device or file menu and export it, in 12 I can't see that option in either.
Anyone know how to export a playlist from your iPhone on iTunes 12, or how to get the "Back Up" to import playlist from that?
It took me days to create :/
Thanks

Assuming you do not have the Sidebar visible then
View > Show Sidebar
Right click on the playlist name to the left and the option of Burn to disc is there
That's the way I'd do it. However, it's still easy enough without the Sidebar visible by default. Click on the Playlists button on top, which will bring up a Playlists Sidebar. (That seems to be the Apple Way: limit the choices depending on what "View" you're in. My feeling is that in many cases, less is less. It's confusing and user-unfriendly.)
Besides the right-click method, which is the easiest, one can also select a Playlist and click on File > Burn Playlist to Disc from the top menu, or click on the gear icon at the bottom of the Sidebar, then choose the burn option.
In its infinite wisdom, Apple has decided that so few people burn CDs nowadays that the function doesn't deserve its own icon to make the process obvious. If I were the UI designer, I would have made a clickable CD icon appear at the top when a blank CD is inserted.

Husband and i both have iphones...how to sync both to one itunes acct but keep separate info.?

We both have 3GS iphones. We want to sync using the same computer, same iTunes, same music, but different content (don't want same calendars, contacts, etc.). I keep seeing where you can choose how to sync separately, but am doing something wrong because we keep getting synced the same, as though one phone acct. Step-by-step info. please.

Here are your choices explained in detail:

I can't sync my playlists from iTunes to my phone!

I can't sync my playlists! I've tried dragging the playlist to my phone and it says it's syncing but it's not appeared on my phone. I click on the drop down menu from the phone and it says that all the playlists are there, but they're not actually there. When I clicked on the music tab when you click on the phone if I click selected playlists then not all the music is on there but only the music that's on the playlists. This is really frustrating! The Apple Support page is absolutely rubbish, I don't want to call apple or go into the store to ask such a simple question! I'm desperate!

I have this issue too! However it only appeared yesterday.
I am a dance teacher and use my phone for all my class playlists. Earlier in the week I uploaded a couple of my Christmas class playlists fine, however last night I was unable to upload my list at all and ended up having to drag my laptop out with me in order to work!
I have tried turning both phone and laptop off, I have since loaded the lastest version of Ios 8.1.2 which doesn't appear to have done anything. And now I have seen a whole heap of issues in a similar vein encountered by other people.
I appreciate that I am using an old phone (iPhone 4s) but I had not changed anything prior to this issue appearing last night. I did encounter it briefly some months ago... and vaguely remember sorting it by checking the names of all the music styles that I wanted to have appear on my iPhone, but that seems a very long-winded way of ensuring that my playlists are updated.
Any tips would be much appreciated.
