HT204406 playlists on iMac won't sync to iPhone and iPad correctly

Half of the playlists as well as random songs won't transfer over to the iphone and ipad. longtime itunes account, only one user id ever, 7000+ songs; new imac, ipad 3 and iphone 4s. plenty of space, and all running latest iOS. I have tried updating Match, turning it off and on at all 3 devices;  I see other people have had similar problems, but not the exact one I'm having; any ideas what the problem is, and how do i fix it so i can get my playlists from the iMac to my iphone? i prefer to create and edit playlists on the big screen of the iMac;

You have to sign out cmpletely on all your devices and sign back in with the new ID.
On a Mac: System Preferences>iCloud and click 'Sign out'.
On an iOS device: Settings>iCloud and click 'Delete account' (this will not delete the account from the server, just unlink your device from it.
Your synced iCloud data will disappear when you sign out but will reappear (give it time) when you sign back in.

  • My calendars won't sync between iPhone and iPad

    My iPhone and iPad calendars will not sync anymore.  I'm running the latest version of software which at this time is iOS 6.1.3 on both devices.  The calendars just stopped syncing for no reason really I don't know if I hit a setting by accident or anything I've looked and can't find anything.  Please help if you know answer.

  • ICal won't sync between iPhone and iPad

    My iCal will not sync from my iPad to my iPhone.

    If new events added to the calendar on your phone do not appear on your calendar on icloud.com, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar on your phone and be sure you have selected an iCloud calendar as your default and not something else like On My iPhone, a Gmail or Yahoo calendar, etc.  If you haven't, make this change, then add a new event and see if it appears on your calendar on icloud.com now.
    If your settings are correct and new events still aren't appearing on icloud.com, add any missing calendar events from your phone to your calendar on icloud.com.  Once the calendar on icloud.com is up to date, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Calendars to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (they will still be in iCloud), then after a minute or so, turn Calendars back to On.  Then add a new event on your phone and see if it appears on your calendar on icloud.com and your iPad now.

    If I add a new account user,can I sync my iPhone and iPad to that account without effecting the other user? I'm trying to sync my iPhone and iPad  to a new account on a computer I am now sharing after my computer died.

    If you still have the old computer see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    If you don't have your old computer, but you made regular backups of it, restore the most recent backup using the backup software that you used to make the backup. You will have to read the instructions for it.
    If you don't have your old computer and you did not back it up regularly see: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

  • HT5295 How to sync between iPhone and iPad?

    How to sync between iPhone and iPad at Podcasts app?

    Please elaborate - share what?
    Just guessing here...
    Any sharing is probably a result of being logged in with the same Apple ID on both devices.
    For apps/music: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Automatic Downloads OFF.
    For iCloud: Settings > iCloud > Delete Account.
    For iMessage: Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.

  • TS4062 I've done all of these recommended steps.  My problem is that I have a new laptop that I am trying to sync my iPhone (and iPad for that matter) via Wi-Fi but both devices are looking for the old laptop to sync.  Any other suggestions?

    I've done all of these recommended steps.  My problem is that I have a new laptop that I am trying to sync my iPhone (and iPad for that matter) via Wi-Fi but both devices are looking for the old laptop to sync.  My iTunes is version 11.0..3.42, iPhone is 6.1.4, and iPad 6.1.3.  Any suggestions?

    All I had to do was complain.  I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store.  I have no idea why.
