My playlists won't sync on my iPad or iPhone

I hook my iphone 5 and ipad 2, both are updated to the newest updates to my computer, new computer and all updated to sync with itunes (updated) and i check my playlists from itunes and my playlists wont appear on my iphone 5 nor my ipad 2. Anyone else experiencing this? Help! Apple tech help!

I'm getting a similar problem too! Every old playlist I delete automatically gets restored from iTunes Match instead of remaining deleted. Plus, every new playlist I make AND every new song I buy will automatically get deleted from my iTunes Library when iTunes Match syncs! Apple better fix this because my purchased content are getting deleted from everything. Luckily it's still purchased in the iTunes Store so I can redownload it just to have it deleted by iTunes Match again. Apple has not been very good with their iTunes services these past few years, which is why I've been migrating my music out of iTunes. Almost not worth all the problems these days. Though I suppose there's a way to force a reset of my iTunes Match database to hopefully fix all this but it depends if Apple's servers block it or not.

Notes won't sync from either iPad or iPhone to Macbook Air

So here is my problem. I have a yahoo account that allows my notes to go between my iPad and iPhone no problem, email works great too. BUT my notes won't sync up to my macbook, I've tried creating a new email account but every time I select the "notes" box I get the same error...
IF the stupid error is unknown then is there anyone out there that can tell me the mysteries of this magical unknown error so I can access my notes on my computer..please help. The account is a pop account, does that matter, should it be changed to imap? There are heaps of discussions about this and most of them are rabbit trails.

TS3991 My iCal on the MacBook Pro (10.6) won't sync with the iPad and iPhone. Help!

My iPhone and iPad mini communicate great with one another, but I can't seem to get my iCal on the MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8) to sync over the cloud. What should I do?

iCloud only comes with OSX 10.7.2 or later, you need to upgrade your OS. Go to the Mac App Store and try downloading OSX Mavericks. The store will only let you download it if your computer meets the required specifications.
If you are told your Mac is not compatible with Mavericks, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU with at least 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

My calendar won't sync between my ipad and iPhone?

Using two iPhone 4's and a 2nd gen ipad. The calendars will not sync. What am I doing wrong?

Hi vichochile,
If you are having an issue with syncing your new iPhone with the information that is in iCloiud (and on your other devices) we should make sure that iCloud is set up correctly on the iPhone. See this page for directions -
Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.

HT204053 My calender won't sync between my ipad and iphone. My apple ID is different from my icloud ID. I never had this issue before the last os upgrade. How do I fix this?

After my last OS software upgrade, the calendar and contact list will not sync with each other. My ipad is correct but some contacts and calendar information disappeared from my iphone. How do I fix this?

I need to change my email adress too. i want it to be the same in icloud as my appleID is. When I set up icloud, it wouldn't allow me to use my appleid. Anyone?

My Macbook pro won't sync with my iPad. It says it isn't authorised. I have gone as far as deauthorizing all computers then authorizing the Macbook & still no luck. Any ideas?

Sorry, not sure how to screenshot on my computer, but this is what is says word for word:-
The Ipad could not b synced because the computer is not longer authorised for purchased items that are on this ipad.
To authorise this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store, choose Store>Authorise this computer.
I have done all of that but not luck. That's when I tried deauthorising all computer which it did ok. I then authorised my Macbook pro again, it said I had one computer now authorised. I tried to delete apps via Itunes then sync to my iPad, but the above message keeps popping up & it wont do what I want.

& iPhone but I want to use my virtual keyboard :( help please ,,

By virtual keyboard do you mean a Bluetooth keyboard?
With the iPad, make sure Bluetooth is turned on, Settings > General > Bluetooth - ON
Turn the keyboard on and see if the iPad recognizes it and pairs.

I have some songs that have an exclamantion point next to them and I can't get them to sync. I had to move them manually into a playlist and succeeded in doing that but now the playlist won't sync. What's the problem?

I have the same problem and I am very upset. I have heard that Apple/iTunes is removing all songs that are unlicened for this type of download. Apple does not want to be responsible for pirated music. Much of mine is down loaded from CD's. I have to go to search and put in every song and then, if found, put it into My Music then back into iTunes. WHAT A HASSLE. I don't remeber reading anything about this. 224 songs so far. NOT HAPPY.

ICloud won't sync to my iPad. Worked fine last night!?

Is this how you sync them back to iPad? (Tap to enlarge image)

How do i find which Apple ID is associated with music in my iTunes? When I sync with my iPad and iPhone it tells me I have music, apps etc from more than five IDs. I am asked for PW for a number of now extinct accounts.

Go to Settings/icloud. The Apple ID at the top of the screen is the only one you need to be concerned about. That one MUST be a working ID, and you must know the password for it, or you will be unable to use the phone if it ever crashes, you want to update it, or you want to sell it.

ITunes stopped syncing videos to iPad and iPhone

I have a bunch of TV shows purchased from iTunes store on my laptop (MacBook Air, OS X 10.8.2) which I routinely sync to my iPad and iPhone. After ungrading my iPhone to iOS 6, the sync stopped working to both iPhone and iPad (which I did not upgrade yet) with iTunes saying that I can not sync these videos because I do not have permission to play them on this computer. This is incorrect as this computer is authorized to play them, and I can actually play them on this computer. I've done all the tricks I've found suggested - reset iPhone (which I didn't think would work since the iPad is affected too), deactivate and activate my iTunes account, and am stuck. Thoughts?

Hey there kuyosh!
After reviewing your issue, I have an article to suggest that will help you troubleshoot the issues with your iPad. The following article will help you do some basic troubleshooting on any iPad issues you may be seeing and their interactions with syncing to the computer:
iPad: Basic troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3274
The specific section you want to pay attention to will be "If iPad doesn't appear in iTunes or you can't sync iPad." If you are still having issues after following the steps in that section of the article, you will want to restore the iPad by following the instructions in this article:
