ITunes Playlist on iPhone

Hello All,
I was in the gym this evening and accidently deleted my "Gym Playlist" which was rather annoying but luckily had some other music to get me through but when I have gone onto my laptop this evening to sync my playlist back onto my phone which i've done before, this has now deleted my playlist on my itunes?
I seriously need this playlist back as it has built up over a number of years and isnt really just my gym playlist. Is there anyway that I can recover this playlist? I have tried re-storing my computer back a few days and even this hasnt worked?
PLEASEEEEE

Search the itunes forum for 'smart playlist'; this problem has been discussed a lot.
Short version: turn off live updates, or add 'Playlist is Music' to the rules in the smart playlist, to work around this bug.

  • Importing iTunes playlist to iPhone?

    How can I import my iTunes playlists to my iPhone's music player? I even have the iCloud update but I still can't see how to do this.

    I don't have it working yet but I believe iTunes Wi-Fi sync is supposed to perform this function, not iCloud.  Confusing, yes.

  • How to sync a voice memo inside an itunes playlist to iphone?

    Hello there.
    Here's a tricky question and  could find the answer nowhere.
    I synced my iPhone with iTunes.
    My Voice memos are on iTunes.
    I deleted them from my phone. They're still on iTunes.
    I create different playlists on itunes with my voice memos in them.
    I check the "include voice memos" case for syncing.
    ...and the voice memos do NOT appear in my playlists on the iPhone! They're back in the Dictaphone app, but not in Music.
    How can I deal with that?
    Thanks

    OK.  How do I take them OUT of the voice memos playlist.  They are listed under Albums and the album name is VoiceMemos.  I tried going into the get info section of one of them and tried to change it manually there to no avail.  All I want to do is add ONE single voice memo (a recording of me singing a specific song to someone) to a playlist so that I can then burn that playlist to disc.  This is REALLY annoying.  Yet another reason that I should switch to Android.  >:(

  • Transfer New Ringtone-Lost iTunes Playlists on iPhone

    Hi. I have the latest software on both my iTunes and iPhone 3G(S) and have a problem. I set the phone to NOT sync when plugged into the computer and have the box checked to manage my music files manually. However, every time I add a new ringtone to my phone via iTunes, I lose my phone's playlists on iTunes - NOT my playlists on iTunes, just on the phone. Never used to happen, so don't know why it's happening now.
    I just upgraded this morning to the newest software on both, but I don't think it was a gliche in the last ones. Anyone know what maybe is checked or not checked that is causing this to happen? It's really frustrating, so I do not add new ringtones anymore. Thanks for any assistance or suggestions.

    While updating through the appstore on my iphone I moved another icon around the screen and then the unit totally resorted all of my icons all over the place.
    When I synced (hoping they'd revert to where I preferred each of them to live) nothing changed EXCEPT ringtons UNCHECKED themselves to sync and the option to sync manual audio unchecked.
    I didn't notice the last bit until my phone rang and it wasn't my ringtone. I wonder what ELSE changed? Friggin thing.

  • ITunes Playlists on iPhone

    I've just updated my software on my iPhone 3GS to 3.1.3 and now my playlists and albums on my iPhone play in random order. I've checked on my macbook pro and they play fine on the mac. The playlists appear ok on the iPhone but will not play in the order I created. I've read a few posts and they all refer to smart playlists but these are just normal playlists & as I said even CD's as downloaded won't play in order.... It's unbelievably frustrating!!!!..... Does anyone know a fix pleeeeeeeease?!..

    Tap the now playing screen to bring up the additional song controls. Tap the Shuffle control until it turns white (off).

  • Itunes not syncing playlist properly iphone 5

    Has anyone had problems syncing their itunes playlist onto iphone 5?
    I'm using the latest iTunes 10.7 to sync with the lates iphone 5 IOS6, but it's only syncing a few songs from each playlist and not the whole playlist!?
    Contacted apple support, 1st email, they replied back with a standard message about how to De-authorising itunes then Re-authorising it again etc. I've done all that to no avail. Replied back to Apple support saying it hasn't helped, they then replied back and said:
    'Michael, your request for assistance has reached iTunes Store Customer Support, which answers questions about billing, customer accounts, downloading purchases, and iTunes Store content. Although this team does not offer technical support for iPhone, I'm happy to guide you to some Apple resources that should help!'
    they have no interest in the fact that there is a glitch in the itunes or iphone 5.
    can anyone help?

  • How do I sync iTunes playlists on my iPhone with iTunes Match?

    My experience with iTunes Match so far has been mixed.  On one hand, the face of iTunes on one computer to the next is virtually identical, and the streming over the wi-fi from the laptop at work to my home computer is perfect.  At the same time, iTunes Match on my iPhone seems terrible.  Playlists don't sync and are deleted from my iPhone.  Songs that are already on my phone, for some reason, still make my phone spin and drain my battery life.  Even after disabling the "allow cellular data over 3G" message, or whatever it is, is turned off, still the phone keeps spinning and draining battery life.  So, in one sense, iTunes Match is nice because I can access my music from multiple computers, but in another, the mobile connection - which should be awesome and seemless - is terrible.  Is there a way, aside from turning iTunes Match off, syncing manually to iTunes, and loading my playlists like the old way (which isn't a perfect science now, either)...Basically, how can I sync my playlists from iTunes on my computer to iTunes on my iPhone using iTunes Match?

    With iTunes Match enabled on an iOS device direct syncing with iTunes via USB or Wi Fi is disabled. To sync in the traditional way iTM must be disabled on the iOS device. At this time is it either/or.

  • How do I transfer music from my itunes playlist to my iphone?

    How do I transfer music from my itunes playlist to my iphone?

    Maddening!!!!! What used to work now doesn't!
    Where did simple drag and drop go? Apple invented it!
    I have an iPhone 5s and want to transfer Playlists from my desktop iMac to the iPhone. I have had these products since their first releases years ago. I am a computer power user. What used to be a simpe "drag and drop" of your Playlist (yes, in Column View which I have turned on now) to your iPhone was easy and you were set. It is now impossible to do. Or easily!
    There are been other posts on this. I have tried them all. None work or the explanations are not adequate.
    WHY IS THIS SAME **** HARD WHEN IT USED TO BE DRAG AND DROP?
    PS: Fire the iTune Product Manager who did this version..get Jony Ive on the case to fix the User Interface Design ASAP!

  • I have an old shuffle that holds all my favourite songs. How do I transfer these to my iPhone. My original iTunes playlists no longer exist

    I have an old shuffle that holds all my favourite songs. How do I transfer these to my iPhone. My original iTunes playlists no longer exist

    Basically, no, but as long as all the music is in the same iTunes library and it doesn't contain protected content from more than five Apple IDs, you don't need to. If desired, click here and ask the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

  • I recently lost my windows laptop due to a virus. I had backed up all files onto a drive(files only). However no itunes playlists. i have all my playlists on my iphone and pics etc however when im trying to sync to my new computer itunes deletes all data

    I recently lost my windows laptop due to a virus. I had backed up all files onto a drive(files only). However no itunes playlists. i have all my playlists on my iphone and pics etc however when im trying to sync to my new computer itunes wants to  deletes all data off of my iphone so i click cancel
    i want to update to iOS 5 and still have itunes be able to copy my playlists from my iphone. for free. why does apple provide a recovery from iphone option?

    If you have a backup, restore the ENTIRE iTunes folder to the computer.  This restores the library and device association files.  If for some reason you chose to only back up the media and not the entire iTunes folder, then the only option is to let iTunes wipe the drive and re-sync.

  • How do i create a playlist in itunes from my iphone 4s?

    how do i create a playlist in itunes from my iphone 4s?

    On my iphone 4s I have 2 songs in the purchased category that I want to manually move into an existing playlist.  I can not figure it out.
    If the existing playlist is a regular (non-smart) playlist, then you can edit it directly on the iPhone. Just select the playlist and you should see an "Edit" button at the top, above the songs.  If you don't see that, then it must be a smart playlist since those can't be edited on the device. Once you tap the Edit button you would then navigate to the song you want to add and press the blue + sign to the right of the song, then press Done when you're finished.
    One caveat though, if you auto-sync your iPhone, the changes you make will not be preserved -- the playlist will revert to how it was next time you sync to iTunes.  So if you want to edit a playlist on your iPhone and then transfer it to iTunes, you have to create a new (empty) playlist on your iPhone, add the playlist that you wanted to edit to the new playlist, then add or delete more songs to the new playlist.  When you auto-sync, the new playlist will transfer to your iTunes library.
    But if you manually manage your iPhone, the playlist should remain in its edited state even if you connect to your library (but admittedly its been awhile since I tried manual mode).
