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 !

    Hello Smithfiledhokie,
    Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities.
    Is the cloud you are seeing on your phone one of these icons?
    Cloud with an arrow pointing down
    The song is stored in iCloud and available to be downloaded to your computer.
    Cloud with a diagonal slash
    The song isn’t eligible to be uploaded to your iCloud library. For example, the song file might be larger than 200 MB, or encoded at 96 Kbps or less.
    Two clouds with a diagonal slash
    Your iTunes library contains duplicate versions of this song, and only the other version was uploaded to your iCloud library.
    Cloud with dotted outline
    The song is being matched, but the process hasn’t been completed yet.

  • Cannot sync new playlist to iphone with icloud

    cannot sync new playlist to iphone from PC as it tells me new playlist not in icloud.  how do I get new playlist into the cloud?

    Hey dr. c bruce,
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. It sounds like the music on your device did not originate from this library, is the iPhone 5 currently synced with another iTunes Library? iPhones can only be synced with one library:
    Manage content manually on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod - Apple Support

    iPhone can only add music or video from a single iTunes Library.
    Thanks,

  • My ipod touch 2 no longer recognizes or syncs new playlists from my computer.  But it does takes the playlists from the ipod and syncs to the computer.  This is a reverse process - what am I doing wrong?  It always synced the correct way in the past.

    Why doesn't my ipod touch 2 recognize or sync new playlists from my computer?  It did in the past, but now the syncing process goes in reverse; the
    playlists on the ipod touch 2 sync to my computer!

    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • IPad (4th Gen Retina Display Wi-Fi) (iOS 7.0.4) won't sync new music from iTunes (Windows).  Only solution found was to uncheck "Sync Music" under Music tab, apply, then recheck "Sync Music" and apply. Any other solution?

    iPad (Retina Display) (iOS 7.0.4) won't sync new music from iTunes (Windows).  Only solution found was to uncheck "Sync Music" under Music tab, apply, then recheck "Sync Music" and apply.  This is timely and aggravating.  Any other solution?
    I have also tried a hard reset.  I have also gone into settings and checked "display all music". 
    Anyone know if the new update will have solutions to this problem?

    Successful experience with Apple Care.
    If anyone is having the same problem, there's a chance it's an issue with the Mobile Device Manager for iTunes. The key is to ditch the old/corrupt file and replace it via clean iTunes installation.
    Here's the fix that worked for me:
    1. Trash iTunes (uninstall); don't forget to trash it from your dock if you have it there.
    2. Head to /System/Library/Extensions/ and trash file AppleMobileDevice.kext
    3. Head to /Library/Receipts/ and trash AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg  ( * this may or may not be there * )
    4. Restart computer (& empty trash)
    5. Download fresh & clean iTunes and reinstall.
    Voila! The content is now properly recognized by iTunes, the capacity bar registers the correct amount and type beyond "Other", and now I can put music back on the iPad.

  • How do I add a new playlist from itunes 11.0.0.163 to my iphone 4s?

    I created a playlist on itunes 11.0.0.163. It is visible on the computer as a playlist in the itunes music play lists. I do now know how to add the newly created playlist to my iphone 4s.

    It definnitely does.

    Adding a new playlist in previous version was a quick drag and drop. 
    And it still is.
    Enable the side bar by doing Cntrl + S.
    Then drag and drop to your hearts content.
    OR just enable syncing and select the items you desire to have synced, then sync.

  • Can't sync new album from itunes to ipod

    have recently downloaded new coldplay album from itunes but ipod will not pick it up during syncing, however will pick up recent podcasts??? any suggestions please!!!!

    Your computer may not be authorised. Try playing a track from the album from itunes. If you are not authorised, it should prompt you for your password. Once authorised it should transfer to the iPod.

  • 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.

    anyone have any idea why i can't add songs to my iphone?

    Reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service:

    2. In the Finder, locate iTunes in the Applications folder and drag it to the Trash.
    3. Move the iTunes icon to the Trash.
    4. Choose Go > Go to Folder.
    5. Enter /System/Library/Extensions and click Go.
    6. Locate the file AppleMobileDevice.kext and drag it to the Trash.
    7. Choose Go > Go to Folder.
    8. Enter /Library/Receipts/ and click Go.
    9. Locate the file AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg and drag it to the Trash. If prompted, authenticate with the administrator password.
    10. Restart the computer.
    11. Choose Finder > Empty Trash and restart the computer.
    12. Download and install the current version of iTunes.
    13. Connect your device to the Mac again and open iTunes & see if you can sync now.
    This will not affect your iTunes library.

    Figured it out.
    Apparently, the Mac App Store can see the app if it is installed on an external drive. I have a backup drive attached to my iMac that also contains backups for my MBP - the MAS was seeing the app on the MBP backup partititon, and assuming that I had it installed.  Oy.  Thanks for trying to help...
