Itunes 10 adding playlist off itunes to iphone 5

put 70 songs on itunes fully synced everything onto iphone but playlist wont go over songs have gone onto the iphone but play list hasnt
how can i get playlist on iphone with out having to add 1 by 1 on iphone.?? i want to keep my entire library dont just want to have that 1 playlist just want to add playlist???
Please help!!!

Still nothing, huh? Seems that iTunes has failed me. Tried many of the options listed in this group, from the iFunbox to restoring the phone, nothing has helped. I will be calling Apple tomorrow to try and get this sorted out. Thinking that my iTunes store purchases reverting back to my 2008 purchases has something to do with it. All of my purchases from 2008 and up are gone from my purchase history. Anything prior is now there as a recent purchase. This is frustrating beyond belief.

Why wont my recently added playlist sync to my iphone?

recently added playlist wont sync to iphone

I have the same issue with my iPhone 5 (iOS 7.0.4) on a Windows7 PC updated with the very latest iTunes. My other iPode (nano - old and new) sync just fine. Only my phone is affected.
I have one album I purchased from iTunes that won't sync via a plain playlist that I made just for that album. (The song files transferred to my phone as part of the "purchased" category. But I can't sync a playlist made on my computer containing those same songs.)
Another plain playlist I made for some spoken short story files in my library won't sync either.
There are no error message that appear while syncing; nothing stating that songs didn't transfer.
Also, if I try to make a new playlist on my phone and adding the "purchased" files to it, the album cover is wrong. The files will be available in the playlist that way, but with the incorrect artwork. (No idea what happens yet if I re-sync with this phone-make playlist.)

I added a contact to my iphone 4s and when I did a sync manually it is not showing up on my MAC in address book - please help....I checked off sync all contacts in iTunes - does it only work one way from computer to phone?

Is it because the new itunes looks different.

Then it should work just the same as on your old computer.

Itunes not syncing "newly added playlist" on my iphone 5!

I am running IOS 7.0.4 (11B554a) on my iphone5 16Gb, modem firmware 5.02.00. i have latest iTunes (V. 11.2.2.3).
Well, as usual i add new songs to my iTunes library, which also show up in 'newly added' playlist in iTunes. So over syncing, it should also be visible in my iPhone in the 'newly added' playlist on my phone, BUT it does not appear in the playlist, HOWEVER, the song does sync and appears in the normal songs list. It is annoying... it never occurred to my previous iPhone.
> I tried unsyncing my whole music library and synced it again but of no avail.
So any suggestion or solution?? will be highly appreciated! Thanks!

Problems Syncing Playlists & Songs in iTunes with Computer & Apple Devices
I've seen variations of this question on the Apple community boards and I myself have struggled with this for months now and I believe I have a solution, at least for what seems to be one of the problems.
If you have purchased a subscription of iTunes Match, then all of your data is filtered through the glorious cloud. ALL computers and devises involved in syncing data must have iTunes Match enabled for syncing to replicate.
This solved my particular issue within 2.1 seconds.
1) On your computer open iTunes. Go to the menu item 'Store' and click on 'Turn on iTunes Match'.
2) On your iPhone open 'Settings', 'iTunes & App Store', click to turn on 'iTunes Match'.
3) For good measure, restart your computer and iPhone (probably not necessary but I did).
Hopefully that helps if not, I hear Google has some type of phone gadget..

Playlists wont sort by latest date added like in itunes on iphone on ios5

After updating to ios5 on my iphone 4, my playlists that i made are the same as in my itunes (currently displayed on itunes as the latest date added to the oldest i.e. newest to oldest). My iphone syncs it as the oppoiste, even though in itunes is newest to oldest. any ideas?

Exactly same problem. I have a playlist sorted by "date added". Just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 5 and it got a mess. Apparently, the first songs are showing on the bottom of the list - and even if I change it on iTunes to "invert" the playlist, it shows the same way on the iPhone.
It wouldn't be a big deal if the playlist didn't have more than 2000 songs (it's really frustrating to scroll all way to the bottom to find the first song). Hope Apple fix it soon.

I need to transfer playlists from my old iphone into itunes so that I can then add them to my new iphone 6. However, none of the playlists on my iphone appear when I connect to my macbook. I have read other threads but have not found answer. help!

I am a group exercise instructor and rely heavily on my playlists. My old phone is an iphone 4s and I just bought an Iphone 6. I also have a macbook where I keep my itunes account, but I create all my playlists on my phone. I need to transfer those playlists from my old iphone into itunes in my computer so that I can then add them to my new iphone 6. However, none of the playlists on my iphone appear when I connect to my macbook. I have read other threads where the suggestion was to attach the old phone to itunes, find the phone in itunes and click the little arrow to the left to show the playlists. Then right click on the playlist and export it, saving it to the desktop, to then import it into itunes. However, in my case, the playlists do not show up when the phone is connected to itunes. I have clicked on the little arrow and all I get is "music", "purchased", etc., but none of my playlists. I'm sure some years back I probably deleted something in my itunes library and now none of my playlists show. Please help me. I would hate to have to recreate all of my playlists. Thank you!

I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question. Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing. I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
My playlists "ARE" in my iphone 4s. They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer.
When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes. I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes: Music, Movies, TV shows, books. That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS" but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone. Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this. I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer

My iTunes will not let me delete music off of my iPhone 4

I am trying to get rid of a lot of music that I don't want off of my iPhone 4 that way I have enough room to download the new iOS 7. So when I go into iTunes I let my phone completely sync and it has no issues so then I go to the iPhone icon. Then I go to the on this phone icon and it lists all my music. But when I go to a song that I want to delete and right click it gives me 3 options: play"...", get info, and show in iTunes Store. So then I just try to highlight the song and click the delete button on my computer nothing happens. I know it's not my iTunes program because I can delete and add songs on my iPod. And adding songs is also an issue for me. So please help! I don't need 488 songs!!

ITunes and iPhone playlists don't match...

So I have all the new updates for the 3GS and my iTunes. I noticed now after i download music and they show up in my recently added playlist, after syncing they don't show up the same way on my phone. This is annoying since it's a quick reference for me to play new songs i just downloaded without searching for an artist and what not. Anyone have any ideas? Is it the new update?

I had the same problem, and the same solution worked. Very annoying! "Recent Additions" playlists are the kind of thing you want live updating on. I have two other Recent Additions list: one for Pop and one for Rock/Metal. Neither of those lists had this problem.
I also discovered that if I re-check the Live Updating box and sync again - it gets messed up on the iPhone again. Also, the playlist under the iPhone (that you can see when it's plugged into the computer) always showed the correct songs, even though they were wrong on the iPhone.

Hi,
It sounds like there may be some disconnect between the phone and the computer. Could be a number of things going on, but one way I've been able to fix this issue on several occasions is by completely removing all of the music from the iPhone (Settings > General > Usage > Storage > Manage Storage > Music > swipe 'All Songs' to the left and tap 'Delete') and then re-syncing it from iTunes all at once. Be sure to disconnect your phone from the computer and close iTunes first. Keep in mind that any songs that are on the phone but are NOT in the iTunes library will not be synced over after you delete them from the phone. If the songs on the phone were purchased from the iTunes Store you can transfer them to the computer's iTunes library by connecting the phone to iTunes then selecting File > Devices > Transfer Purchases from [user's] iPhone.
After deleting all songs from the phone, go back into Settings and check the music storage again to make sure everything was deleted. If the 'Music' app is not listed anymore, then you should be good to go. Just to be sure, you can also check the Music app itself and make sure no songs appear there (if songs appear with cloud icons next to them, turn off 'Show All Songs' in Settings > Music and then check the Music app again -- no songs should appear).
Once you're absolutely sure all songs have been removed from the phone, restart the iPhone, plug it back into the computer, and let iTunes sync. Give it time to sync everything over at once and make sure the sync doesn't get interrupted. Everything you've set to sync should sync over properly.
If it still doesn't sync, there may be a corrupted file in the iOS installation on the phone or in the iTunes installation on the computer. It's more likely that the issue is in the phone's software, especially if you ever installed an iOS update over Wi-Fi (through the Settings app). I'd recommend making an iTunes backup and restoring the phone to factory settings through iTunes. Then set the iPhone up as a new iPhone and test the syncing -- the playlist should sync over properly. If not, Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 - Apple Support. Then test again.
Once you get the syncing working with the phone set up as new, restore the phone from your iTunes backup and test the syncing again. Now that the iOS files have been reinstalled, hopefully the corruption is gone! If it still doesn't sync properly, the corruption may be somewhere else (in a song in the playlist, in some app data in the backup, etc.). That could be harder to pinpoint, but don't worry about that for now. Start simple.
Good luck!

I put video clips together and added music off of iTunes but it will not attach when I put it on youtube or vimeo. what is wrong. It plays as I made it on iMovie

Thank you all for your replies. Here is what i ended up doing. I cannot afford any 3rd party software so i went to itunes and manually entered all my playlists. As I had indicated my purchased music was on my new computer just not the playlists and I could not sync my ipod. After I rebuilt all my playlists I tried to restore my ipod to factory defaults/new. All of the steps called for in apple support and elsewhere were not available to me. I connected my ipod, went to my computer, right clicked my ipod, and formatted. That wiped my ipod so when I connected to itunes it then gave me a restore option. I did the restore and all is good in the empire again. I can now buy new music and sync my ipod so I am a happy camper.
Thanks to all.

Why did my playlists dissapear from my iPhone, even though they are still on my iTunes?

I went into my iPhone music app today (on my 4s), and I noticed all my playlists were gone. All my music could still be found under Songs/Artists, just my playlists were missing. I went home and noticed they were all on my iTunes still though.
I use iTunes match, so I turned it off on both iTunes and iPhone, then turned back on, but still playlists were gone. I haven't done anything with iTunes or my phone recently, so I am not sure what has happened. The only thing I have done was hook up an apple TV the other day...is that what did it?
Anyways, I plugged my phone in, turned off Match, and synced. Playlists are there now. Turn on iTunes Match, and they dissapear again.
What's going on? All the songs in my playlists are uploaded or matched in the could.
Thanks,
Andrew

Why can't I add playlist on my old iPhone iTunes on my computer? Can add it on my phone manually but I need to do it on the computer..

Why can't I add playlist on my old iPhone iTunes on my computer? Can add it on my phone manually but I need to do it on the computer.
This is an old iPhone that I am only using as an Ipod. It is an Iphone 3GS and I now have an iPhone 4S.
Any help would be much appreciated!

I assume that you mean that you do have an iPhone because messages will not work with any other type of cell phone. You should be able to add your phone number in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at, if your phone number is lited in there, select it and then uncheck your email address and then the iPad will be using the phone number just like the iPhone.
If you phone number is not listed in there, you probably have to sign out/turn off Messages on the phone and the iPad and then start over again on the phone - and then your phone number should be accessible to use on the iPad.
Read this support article and pay attention to the information at the very end.

ITunes 10 - iPhone 4 Device playlist not updating from main iTunes Playlist

Installed iTunes 10 and synched with an Apple iPhone 4. After the first install, I could see all of the Playlists displayed in iTunes when I selected to sync Music on the iPhone using the 'Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres'. After the initial install of the iPhone 4, I add or rename playlists in the main iTunes app and these new playlists do not appear at all in the iPhone Music playlists to be selected.
I can add songs to a playlist and the iPhone playlist gets the new tracks OK.
I tried renaming a playlist that showed up OK in the iPhone Music Playlists and the playlist disappeared from the iPhone Music Playlists.
All of the playlists work fine within the main iTunes window, I can add, delete, rename playlists without any issues there. The only issue I have is within the iPhone 4 Music Sync Music tab where I select playlists.
I reinstalled the iTunes 10 and did a restore of the iPhone and the problem persists.

The same issue occurs with my iPad.
Spoke with Apple twice and the attempts so far have not resulted in the problem being fixed. What's been done to date is:
- reinstalled iTunes 10
- move the iTunes Music Library.xml file to desktop and then selected the option to import the library using the xml file from the desktop (this took about 12 hours to run, I have about 108,000 tracks in my library)
After these two attempts, I continue to have the issue whereby playlists showing up on the Devices on iTunes to select playlists do not match with the playlist within the main iTunes window.
Any other ideas of what could be done?
