IPhone 4s does not sync purchased items' play count?

I recently bought a new album using my iPhone, and subsequently synced.
Now, looking at my recently played, I can see items I've played over the last several days, but not this album.
I really want this album to sync play counts as I really like having play counts.
As an iPhone user since the beginning, I'm really starting to get fed up with these silly little inconsistencies.
Has anyone ever experienced this problem, or know how to resolve it?
Would it work to delete from one and sync to the other? If so, which way?
Suggestions would be very much appreciated!

Okay, so, a few minutes after posting this, I gave up and decided to try something.
I deleted the files from my WIndows PC (which I am now using for the main syncing machine).
I then synced the phone to remove them. I subsequently added them back in, and synced them again.
Presto, play counts syncing.
I have a feeling that when I downloaded from iTunes on the computer, and the phone seperately, somehow iTunes didn't consider the iCloud/iTunes songs as the same, and must have been treating them as separate files, rather than the same.
Now that I've added these "new" files in, it considers them to be the originals I guess!

Sync between MacBookPro and iPhone 3G does not sync properly. Calendars duplicate events but worse is that only contacts from Address book from letter T onwards sync. Any contacts on iPhone which are not on Mac are lost during sync.

Solutions?

No, I never really found an easy solution. I believe it is an issue with some corruption in the iTunes database on the specific device. In my case, both my iPad and iPhone now show duplicate stream songs if viewed through iTunes on my Mac, but they show different songs. A couple years ago I had a similar issue on my iPhone, and Apple support suggested I back up the phone, completely reset it, and then restore it from the backup. It did work, so I imagine it would probably work for my current issues with the iPhone and iPad. But resetting and restoring an iPad or iPhone always makes me a little nervous that something will get lost. When I did reset/restore the iPhone, I do have to say, the restore process was 100% perfect and I did not lose any data at all even though Apple support said I might. If you try to go that route, I would suggest backing the device up both to a computer through iTunes, and to the iCloud so that you have a double backup.
None of this really resolves the issue with how the iTunes databases are becoming corrupted on the apple devices though, so it is very likely to happen again until they fix it. I have been unable to determine if there were any specific actions or conditions which caused the corruption to happen in the first place.
Might be worth another call to Apple support, or dropping in the local Apple store if you have one near by.

Of course not... it's not supposed to. There is no issue with that.
iDevices only show as cameras so that pictures/videos taken with the device can be copied off.
What troubleshooting has been tried to get iTunes to recognize the device?
Different sync cable?
Multiple USB ports?
Reset or restart or the device?
Rebooting the computer?

HT1296 When i sync calendars, the info i typed in my iphone calendar does not sync to my computer

When i sync calendars, the info i typed in my iphone calendar does not sync to my computer? Info from my ical from the computer does sync to my iphone...Am i missing something?

Thanks for the reply but when I do this my default calendar options are 'From My Mac' or 'iCloud'. If I try to select a calendar I can only select one of them. So, if I select Calendar I can only get a check mark beside one feature, calendar, home, or work. I am stumped. I can add events on the Mac and then will sync to the phone but not the other way. That sounds like settings to me but I have toggled everything I can think of.

Putting info on my iPhone calendar does not sync with my iMac unless I plug it into my iMac

putting info on my iPhone calendar does not sync with my iMac unless I plug it into my iMac. It did when I first bought iPhone, how can I sync automatically?

Could be a bunch of reasons. Do you have icloud setup on both devices? Can you give us more details of your setup? Make sure you have the calendar set to sync in the icloud system settings. Also make sure you are set to sync said calendar. I was checking my settings and realized that you may or may not be using icloud for calendaring. On your phone in settings/mail, contacts, calendars/ you have the ability to select what and which calendars you want to sync. Make sure it is configured appropriately.

Iphone calendar does not sync with OUTLOOK 2013

iphone 4 calendar does not sync with OUTLOOK 2013 calendar. Can anyone help? Iphone [Apple] will not provide support

Why won't Apple provide support? Do you mean free support if your iPhone is no longer under warranty if the AppleCare extended warranty was purchased for your iPhone, or if the initial 90 days of free telephone support after the purchase date has expired? If you no longer have free telephone support, free support is provided at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

IPhone calendar does not sync new events and appointments from Outlook

iTunes 9.2.0.61/iPhone 4.0.1 - does not sync newly added events and appointments! Previously added stuff is all there, new stuff added in Outlook 2007 just doesn't show up. I've gone back to my old Palm T|X which syncs all this stuff with no problem, so it's not an Outlook bug.
It looks like Apple has put a team of junior programmers on the Calendar app - I've seen leap-year bugs (still there), events showing up on the wrong day (still there), and I'm still waiting for the "week at a glance" view. Calendar is SO important for business use that top level "gray beard" engineers need to be on this. (Question for Apple's calendar developers: what's Zeller's Congruence? It they haven't heard of it they have no business doing calendar programming.)

Spontaneously started syncing again - no idea why now, nor why it failed for so long. Related to the alarm bug? Who knows...

My iPhone 4s does not sync to iTunes 10.6.3.25

I have an iPhone 4s iOS 5.1.1 and since I upgraded iTunes to 10.6.3.25 it goes through the sync process with no error messages, but does not sync playlists. Diagnostics says that sync is working fine. Tried reboot on iPhone. Reinstalled iTunes on PC. PC is running Windows 7 Ultimate. My wife's Window PC does the same thing. My son's Mac laptop does sync.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have the same problem with my iPhone 4S and new iPad. I tried both actions:
1) Uncheck SYNC MUSIC, allow the music to be deleted from the device, and re-sync. Did not work.
2) Check Match is off (it actually was off in both my iPhone and Ipad, as well as in iTunes). Nothing.
Anyone with this problem has been able to solve it?
I created a new "Test" playlist but did nt sync with any device.
Thanks.

Iphone 4 does not sync to itunes

Recently my iphone 4 will not sync to my itunes on my computer.
My computer sees that a device is plugged in, and my phone give me the "trust this computer" message, but itunes does not show my phone on the screen, and it won't give me the option to sync my phone.
I have hard shutdown my phone, reset my phone completely, updated itunes/checked for updates on my phone (there were none), and changed cords, while restarting my pc. Nothing is working.
Can anything be done about this?

Iphone 5 does not sync address book

my new iphone 5 does not recognize or sync my mac address book through itunes when I connect the divice. I am opertating 10.8.2.. Any idea why?
Thanks

This is happening to me also. We have 5 devices -- iMac, iPad, MacBook Pro, and 2 iPhone 5's. All devices are in sync except for one of the two iPhones. It downloads from iCloud but will not upload (though it will occasionally). Today we went to an Apple store and was given a new iPhone to replace the one with "poor connectivity". It worked fine. BUT then I restored the iCloud backup and now it no longer uploads. So it is not the phone itself. It seems to be some software problem. -- Both phones are using IOS6 1.01
