ITouch Playlist are Backwards

I upgraded my iPod Touch to the iOS5, and while I love all the enhancements, there seems to be one small glitch (at least for me)
My playlists that are aranged by date added are always aranged with the oldest song first. This is not how they used to be displayed nor are they sorted in this order on my computer, I prefer them to be sorted with newest first.
I have tried exporting the plalist, deleting it, re-importing it, switching the sort order on my computer, getting rid of all the songs on my iPod, putting them all back in, and I've clicked the "Copy to play order" option many times but nothing has helped.
Does anyone have this problem or a solution to it?

I'm not sure if my answer is right but I think only playlists from iTunes get synced to your iPod. So if you deleted these on your iTunes this may be the reason they are not on your iPod. To re-create them just select the new playlist option (or smart playlist I think it is) and choose the correct settings.

  • HT4914 Why when my play lists from itunes go into icloud, the song list are backwards?

    Why, when my playlists from itunes go to icloud, the songs in the playlists are backwards? any idea...both my iphone 5 and ipad 4 retna

    Sounds like you are trying to stream the songs vice having them downloaded to th iPod.
    First go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and turn OFF SHOW ALL
    If still problem
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    I have over 4000 songs in my Itunes library.  I have 25-30 playlists set up.  I just did a sync on my daugthers itouch and 85% of my playlists dissappeared.  i rebooted my pc....playlists are still not there. The songs are still in my library.   Very strange.  Any Advice appreciated

    Thanks, Michael.  Itunes Match is not enabled on my daughter's Itouch.  I have subscribed to it and have used the service to back up my song purchases.  I merely did a sync via USB (as normal) to her Itouch.  The sync wiped out 85% of the playlists that were on my home computer for the last seveal years.  I have updated her itouch multiple times - both before and after I had subscribed to iTunes Match.  After the last sync to her iTouch, the playlists just disappeared.   My home computer is the main device I use to manage my Itunes library and my playlists.  I am not sure what happened?
    BTW - how are you affiliated with Apple?  Are you?  I feel like I have explained the issue pretty clearly, but your responses seem to focus on her iTouch and not my computer, where the playlists are managed.  I want to know how to get the playlists back on my computer.
    Thanks for your help.  Rob

  • In the latest verision of ITunes (downloaded yesterday) I can no longer see how large (in GB's) my music library or playlists are.  This is a very valuable function and it seems to have disappeared.  Anyone know where it is?

    Go to the View menu and turn on the Status Bar. If you don't see the menus, go to the small icon with the arrow at the extreme upper left and select "Show Menu Bar":

  • My songs in the playlist are not appearing on my ipad 2 after syncing.

    I bought my ipad 2 from san farncisco 2 months back. now in my i tunes i have 6 playlist. out of 6..4 of th playlist are fully syncronised but the other 2 playlist are partially synced...i have updated it to 4.3.5 firmware but still the problem persists...and the ame songs as per playlist i have synced in my iphone i dint get any problem..kindly help..

    but I've restarted my iPhone just the other day (for a different reason) and it didn't affect the iCloud calendar... don't know why it did today,
    Because "resetting" like I suggested is not the same as "restarting".
    You wouldn't know how to get iCal to update on a iMac that doesn't have Lion installed, would you? 
    Unfortunately, you need a Mac running Lion v10.7.2
    You're welcome 

  • I have an iphone 6 with the most recent iOS.  iTunes Match is on.  Music app only showing songs purchased on iTunes and no playlists are displayed.  Just happened when updating iTunes Match.  Solutons?

    I have an iPhone 6 with 64 GB of memory.  I have iTunes Match turned on my account and on the phone.  Suddenly, the Music app is only displaying music purchased directly from iTunes and no playlists are displayed.  This occurred after updating iTunes Match on my PC; when new music did not appear, I turned off iTunes Match off/on the PC then did the same on iPhone 6.  It looks like iTunes Match is trying to do a full download to the phone but it never completes.  Ideas?

  • I got an iPhone 4 a week ago. I synced my iTunes once and now I want to change what albums and playlists are on my phone. When I try to do this, iTunes threatens to remove all my apps. Of course, Apple's support is no help.

    I got an iPhone 4 a week ago. I synced my iTunes once and now I want to change what albums and playlists are on my phone. When I try to do this, iTunes threatens to remove all my apps. Of course, Apple's support is no help. I know there has to be a way to add and remove whole albums and playlists like on the music tab on the device, so please don't tell me to uncheck/delete everything from my iTunes that I don't want and re-sync. That is not helpful and not the issue. How do I get around it threatening to remove all my apps?

    On the MacBook, go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Advanced > Disable remote control

  • I just updated the new iTunes and now all my playlists are gone!! What the heck?!

    All my playlist are gone from itunes with the new update. If I click on "sync" it asks me to erase all my music and videos... Is there a way to avoid doing this? Thanks.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    In the unlikely event that your media has been wiped from your computer see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • I was logged in with a temporary profile on my pc, after restarting everything seemed to be fine. But my iTunes music is all in the cloud now, and my playlists are gone. What do I do?

    I was logged in with a temporary profile on my pc, after restarting everything seemed to be fine. But my iTunes music is all in the cloud now, and my playlists are gone. What do I do?
    My iTunes media folder shows ALL of my music still there (including all from imported CD's), but on my iTunes, it says most of it is in the cloud? As well as my playlists that I have had for YEARS, are all gone. I just recently got a new laptop and had my iTunes transferred over, when I re-downloaded iTunes onto it, everything popped up perfectly from this same file. Now after this "Temporary Profile" mishap, nothing is working properly with iTunes.
    Help! Please.

    Do this. If all the synced media like apps and music are alread in the the iTnunes library just backup the iPod and restore from that backup

    Is the sidebar hidden? CTRL+S should reveal it.

  • I just downloaded the newest reconfigured version of iTunes, and for the first time ever my content is all screwed up.  Specifically, all of my playlists are gone, so are my apps.  However, the music library is intact.   Any ideas?  Thanks.............

    I just downloaded the newest reconfigured version of iTunes, and for the first time  ever my content is all screwed up.  Specifically, all of my playlists are gone, so are my apps.  The good news is that my music library is intact and that I've got more than one device with everything as it should be on them; the bad news is that my PC does not recognise my devices and keeps defaulting to " lets sync your devices to this new computer loose all of the playlists I've spent years compiling".  I don't get it.  Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I cannot sync my ipod touch, nor my iphone to my itunes anymore. I would  like to go through all of the steps troubleshooting listed in this article, but will I lose my playlists?

    Your playlists are contained in your library.itl files in your user area iTunes folder, or on the external drive if you keep your whole iTunes folder there.  The steps outlined in that article will leave that unaffected.  Still, it is always a good idea to make a complete bootable clone backup of your computer before undertaking the type of procedures that article suggests, just in case you delete the wrong thing.

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

  • My iPod playlists are deleted every time I plug my iPod into my MacBook Pro.

    Every time I plug my iPod into my MacBook Pro, my iPod playlists are deleted.  I have all the sync features turned off on both the iPod and computer.  What is happening?  I hate having to remake my "Workout" playlist everytime I plug in!

    Correct.  All sync features are turned off and if is 'manually manage' somewhere, I have checked the box to do so.  So basically everything is set for me to manage manually, yet my iPod playlists are still being deleted.
