ITunes won't sync one of my playlists even when I add it manually. help?

I have just one playlist that won't sync. Ive restarted both my computer and my phone, and synced my phone multiple times. I have even gone through and manually added the playlist, but it still won't sync. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Howdy becbec3,
It sounds like a single playlist is not syncing from your library to your device.
I want to recommend a couple of things here. First, restart both your computer and your phone.
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Try syncing again and if the issue persists, I would next try resyncing your music to the phone, by unchecking the Sync Music checkbox in the Music tab of iTunes when you have your phone selected, then click apply. This will remove the music from the phone.
From: iTunes 11 for Mac: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
          http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12113
When that completes, re check the checkbox and click apply again to sync the music back to the phone.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • My ipod won't sync one of my playlists- why?

    My ipos stnced with my computer 4 of my 5 playlists.  I have tried to manually add it, but cannot.  What should I try?
    My computer is slow, and itunes wouldn't open normally today.  I used safe mode to open it.

  • ITunes won't sync 3GS AT-ALL

    hi there, I'm having some problems with iTunes, that being iTunes won't sync with my 3GS at all, when it gets to the "backing up iPhone" bit at the start theprogress bar won't even start, the diagonal lines that appear in the progress bar remain there for just over 2 hours (at which point I gave up) and the backing up and syncing never actualy happen.
    I am using an iPhone 3GS 16gb iOS 4.0 and iTunes 9.2 for windows.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to solve my problem? Thanks in advance!

    delete itunes from your pc and then reinstall it. also if you have a recent backup or dont mind losing the info on your iphone reinstall iOS4 on your iphone. but only if you have a recent backup or dont mind losing your data.

  • Itunes won't sync music to my iPhone5!!

    I just updated to OSX Mavericks and I have the latest update for iTunes, but when i sync my phone to my macbook pro and try to put my music on it, nothing happens. When it gets to part 4 or 5 (whichever one is the part where the music get's sync'd) it just skips over it and finishes. I have been stuck for so long, I have tried looking at support sites etc... but nothing is working. I tried downloading songs from itunes, and from the internet and nothing will sync. Advice would be greatly appreciated!! i am so frustrated, i have tried syncing over wifi and thru the cord but it doesn't make a difference. it's like this happened out of nowhere. thanks in advance!

    ''I was experiencing the same problem and tried all sorts of stuff, including items in this thread with no luck, this is what ultimately worked for me.
    1.  Download iFunBox (or other utility that gives you access to the filesystem)
    2.  Delete the _iTunes_Control folder
    3.  Delete everything in the Purchases folder
    4.  Force a sync in itunes
    5.  Profit.
    So far I haven't seen any weird problems, other than my songs now sync.''

  • ITunes won't sync music to my iPad

    iTunes won't transfer all the music from my computer to my iPad. The sync starts, it transfers about 500 of 2500 songs, then just stops.
    I have tried disconnecting wifi, reinitialising the iPad and practically every other tip I could find on this forum: no joy.
    Just seems incredible that the music I have (mostly) paid for on iTunes won't sync from one device to another. Are Apple trying to get me to pay for iTunes Match?!
    Thanks in advance for your help...

    I don't use and never have usediTunes Match, I almost never buy music from iTunes, and I can sync all of music just fine - purchase and imported from CD's.
    Have you tried syncing with the cable if you are using WiFi? Do you have enough storage space on the iPad? Could it be that the sync stops in the same place very time indication a corrupt song or album? Have you tried syncing the music in bits and pieces - simply as a troubleshooting step?

  • My iTunes won't sync music to my iphone 4

    My iTunes won't sync music on to my iPhone 4. It syncs music on to my ipod 3rd gen, but not my iPhone. All my software is up to date, and all my settings are correct, but nothing seems to work. I've tried, turning my phone off and on, restoring my phone, restarting my computer, unchecking and checking my music, and nothing seems to work. I only have one playist with all the songs I want onto my iPhone, because my whole iTunes library doesnt fit onto it. Another note, it was working perfectly fine yesterday and this morning. But earlier today, my music only showed 3 artists, 2 albums, and 622 songs (which is how much I should have on there), and I tried re-syncing my iPhone, and now there's no music on there at all. Please help, music is the main thing I use my phone for, and its gonna make me go crazy if I dont fix this.

    I know that most of these posts were put up a little while ago
    But.
    I too had a similar problem - my thoughts were:
    Something to do with update to IOS 7.4
    Corruption
    Itunes software issue
    After a LOT of research, I found a simple step that solved this issue for me.
    I had been running my sync (pre - IOS 7.4) as automatic - see the options section under the summary tab
    I changed my selection to manually manage music and videos and tried another sync
    Wha La!
    It began to copy over 700 songs that had not properly synced to my Ipad 2
    BONUS: it then started to sync my videos again.
    Hope this helps somebody.
    It certainly made my life less frustrating
    Downside: I have to MANUALLY manage - but it's better than all the hassles
    NB: I don't know why this error occurs and I'm not sure this fix will work for everyone's issues but it can't hurt.

  • ITunes won't sync but iPod working...?

    I downloaded the most recent iTunes and tried to sync my iPod (an 80 gig with video, fyi). iTunes said it needed to restore, that the iPod was corrupt, etc.; I did as it said and waited for the iPod to restart... just to have iTunes say it needed to restore again. After repeating the process a few times I unplugged the iPod and found that it was asking for a language and that it showed the menu options and the games worked, but because it had been restored there was no music on it. Now iTunes won't sync it but the iPod itself is turning on and doesn't show any music (except for, you know, the lack of music.)
    It is important to know, I guess, that my iPod hasn't been working perfectly lately; she's been freezing up, won't play some songs, working sluggishly... Last night she was particularly diifficult and after restarting a few times refused to play more than one or two songs (before freezing.)
    I can't think of any time I've dropped her from anymore than a few inches off whatever surface, and every time she was in her case so I doubt that had anything to do with it...
    Can anyone help? I thought it might just be a problem with the new iTunes so I don't want to send her in for service just yet, but the sooner she's fixed, the better.
    Thank you ver much in advance!

    Hi there,
    Have you tried the 5 R's that Apple recommend trying?
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303940
    It sounds like you could do with going through them - make sure that you have the very latest iTunes software before starting.
    I hope this helps.

  • Won't sync added music to playlist.

    How come my itunes won't sync my downloaded cds but will snyc my purchases. I think it is only showing up because of the cloud. When i plug my phone to sink it will not sync my added songs that i put in my playlist. I think it is my iphone 5 issue. I plug my ipods in it snycs everything just fine.

    Lynn,
    I had a very similar issue (same playlist).  After several frustrating hours of various combinations I was able to sync by changing the options to "manuall sync.." and then "dragging and dropping" the needed playlist from the iTunes Playlist list to the iPhone button (on my itunes setup/view that was from the far left column list of all of my  playlist in iTunes to the far upper right "iPhone" button).  To sum up "checking" the playlist and syncing didnt work, "drag and droping" the playlist did... at least for now... then I unselected the "manually manage" in the options and re-synced and all playlist were synced correctly.  Good Luck.

  • My iTunes won't sync my tones (ringtones) to my iPhone 4.  Every time I check "sync tones" my iTunes library says that my iPhone is connected to another iTunes library, but I don't have another iTunes library.  What do I do?

    Hi HB3207!
    I have a couple of suggestions for you to attempt to resolve this issue. First, I would try re-creating your iTunes library following the instructions listed here:
    iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
    You may also need to simply try restarting your phone and attempting to sync again after a restart. Information on completing this can be found here:

  • My iTunes won't sync and I can't download an app onto my iPhone 4S. It's been really bad since the update!

    Hi,
    Two problems here guys
    1. My iTunes won't sync. Since the update to iTunes 11 it refuses to transfer purchaces from my iPhone 4S and won't put stuff from my phone into my iTunes library and I can't put anything on my phone through my laptop. Both the laptop and the phone say that they are syncing but nothing actually happens
    2. As the Avengers Initiative app is currently free I decided to try and download it straight on to my phone, but every time I try it says I don't have enough memory, even though I deleted stuff especially so I could download this and I now have 3.6 GB free, so I downloaded it on to my iTunes on my computer, but of course my iTunes won't sync
    I've reinstalled iTunes twice and it hasn't worked!
    Somebody help please

    Same problem, any assistance would be appreciated.
    thanks

    Need some help: my itunes won't sync with my iphone anymore. Both softwares are up to date and I've reinstalled itunes. After I reinstall, it syncs. But then when I reboot my computer, it no longer syncs anymore and I have to keep reinstalling itunes. Thoughts???

    thought that it was possible to have the same iTunes library on any machine that was authorised, a kind of cloud-iTunes I guess. 
    That would convenient, but sadly it is not the case. Sorry!
    Either way your welcome and best of luck!
