New Playlist dosent sync

I made a new playlist in itunes. I connected my iphone but it did not sync to the phone or show up in the manuel playlist box. This started after I down loaded the new icloud software update. Please help. Im not the computer literate

I just got off the phone with apple care and I had to sync my phone and purchases and photos (and basically anything else you don't want to lose).  Then restore the phone to it's original factory settings.  Then when it asks you to set it up as new or use backup: choose set up as new and start from scratch.
It fixed my problem.

    So, your iPhone (and new shuffle) still work properly with iTunes, correct? 
    Your 1st gen shuffle... It's the white one with USB plug, that looks like a USB flash drive...?
    Are you able to see it in Windows, and maybe change the drive letter back to E:?

  • Why do the new playlists not sync?

    My Nano syncs are not updating the 2 new playlists I created. The playlists are visible, and full of content in iTunes, but after syncing, they don't show up on the Nano. What am I doing wrong?

    New maps with some problems. I am sure updates will come.  I am I the US so I am not having problems. You can use goggle apps in safari until goggle comes out with an app

  • Can't get newer playlists to sync into ipod classic

    New playlists aren't showing up on my iPod. All of the new music I've purchased is in the Music list, so that's syncing ok. Old playlists are ok, just not the new ones I've created lately (it's been a while since I synced my iPod) Help please!

    If you're using the option to *Sync selected playlists only* have you remembered to select your recently created playlists?

  • New iPad dosent sync all photos in photostream

    I love the new iPad, but it only syncs about 25% of my photos.  These photostream photos are recent and they are under 1000, it only synced maybe my most recent 100 photos.  I have plenty of memory.  I have done everything the apple help center tells me to do....(I'm on wifi, I have battery, iCloud sync photostream is on, I have reset it). I have also restarted my device, installed any updates, my other Devices include the ancient iPad 1 and an iPhone 4S, no problems with those devices syncing Photos, documents, or apps. 

    Are you sure that the Photo Stream photos that are on the iPad and the iPhone aren't really in the camera roll on this devices .... Maybe you saved them to the camera roll from the Photo Stream.
    Photos that are over 30 days would have been deleted from the Photo Stream wouldn't they have been? If you saved them to the camera roll on the other devices they would still appear on those devices.
    I am really just starting to use Photo Stream myself, and im noe expert by any menas, but I am getting my information from here. However, I could be misunderstanding how it works, since I am new to the whole thing myself.
    iCloud: PhotoStream FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
    The article also explains how to add photos manually to the PhotoStream from your computer. And now that I think about it, the PhotoStream contents are not in your backup so restoring from the backup would not transfer them to the new iPad and only photos that you have taken - after you turned on PhotoStream on the new iPad, should appear in the PhotoStream on the device.

  • HT1386 When I try to sync a new playlist it won't go onto my iPhone.  When I click "on this phone" the playlist is there on the computer but not on my phone.

    I cannot get new playlists to sync on my phone.  I could yesterday.  When I click "on this phone" the playlist shows up on the main computer but not on my phone.

    As I said, some items cannot be purchased with an existing credit on an account no matter how much it is.  It can only be purchased with a charge to a credit card.

  • My ipod touch 2 no longer recognizes or syncs new playlists from my computer.  But it does takes the playlists from the ipod and syncs to the computer.  This is a reverse process - what am I doing wrong?  It always synced the correct way in the past.

    Why doesn't my ipod touch 2 recognize or sync new playlists from my computer?  It did in the past, but now the syncing process goes in reverse; the
    playlists on the ipod touch 2 sync to my computer!

    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • I cannot sync new playlists from iTunes PC to my iPhone

    I have read through many Apple support topics and how-tos, I have tried everything I can to get iTunes to copy over/ sync new playlists from my PC. Doesn't matter if I select manual choosing of music, or select individual playlists, update my preferences, or drag the playlists over to the iPhone... every single time I try syncing the result is that those new playlists NEVER APPEAR on my iphone.  I do usb syncing, wifi syncing... nothing will work.
    This is incredibly frustrating!!   Now I understand why so many of my friends are just giving up on Apple products. 
    Why does such a SIMPLE process not work???

    Apples update to iPhoto 11 (9.4.1) seems to have corrected the probem! I can selectively sync photo albums and events again. If anyone else is having the problem update to 9.4.1 !

  • Mystery- how has my old nano been updated with my new playlists in iTunes when I haven't synced it?

    I got given a 2gb nano in 2005, which I filled up with imported cd music, not wanting an Apple account and not wanting to pay for music that I already have on cd (was in music industry for years, and like to own the physical product rather than a download that then needs backing up). Anway, lovely bf has bought me a 7th gen 160gb pod for Xmas, so I was merrily organising playlists and preparing to load the whole 45gb of music onto my new shiny ipod. Got my old nano out yesterday, and found that all the playlists that were there have been replaced by the first few new playlists I've made in iTunes. I am not using Match, or thieving Cloud, and I haven't had the nano anywhere near the computer for the last 3 or 4 years! I don't remember registering the nano with Apple, but the new one has definitely been registered (several conversations with Apple because Amazon sent us a "new" iPod that had already been opened, language and clock set to Australian time (the London clock said 9.47pm  YESTERDAY), and replaced it with another "new" one with the same issues (replacement hadn't even been shrinkwrapped, just the bare and slightly battered box).
    Is this something that the cloud has done? And if so, how come it's done it to my baby nano, and not to the new Classic 160gb? It means it ran out of space, so effectively it's wiped off all the music that has been on there for years, and replaced it with as much as it could fit on, working from the top of the playlist list........
    Having read about how the cloud nicks things and won't let you access them if you disconnect from cloud (not that I'm aware of having connected to the **** thing anyway), I'm now going to have to do a back up so that when I tell cloud to bog off, I can still copy any missing music back into iTunes.
    Has anyone got an explanation for how my nano's content has been changed without me doing anything except changing my playlists in iTunes, and has it happened to anyone else?
    Also, why did nobody at Apple stop to thing that "pushing" data to all your Apple devices is bound to cause problems when each device's capacity is so different from the others? My iPad is the first and small one (32gb I think), the nano is 2gb, my new Pod is 160gb, and what's in iTunes is 35gb. It's also tried to put my music library onto the iPad, announced there wasn't room (I had already selectively downloaded some music on to it when I got it 2 years ago), and wiped off all the music that was on that. It currently says there's nothing on it BUT also says it's full. I'm not very happy with Apple at the moment!
    The only device listed in iTunes is the iPad, dated as Xmas 2010. Should I remove that from there?
    iTunes is ALWAYS set to "prevent automatic sync" because until now, I haven't had a device with sufficient capacity to put the whole library on to, so even if I had plugged the nano in, I would have had to have selected the whole library in order for this mysterious over-writing to have happened.
    Answers, anyone?
    Thanks in advance :-)

    When iTunes removed the ping feature they replaced it with an internal check on feeds - based on the frequency of new episodes - so your feed may take a week or more to show up the changes.
    http://www.nobodydanceshere.com/blog/feed/podcast/
    Looking at your feed it is showing a last build date of 5/26/2012 - so the next time iTunes checks your feed it should update your info. 
    But since it has been since 2010 since your last update - you do need to wait a bit before iTunes checks your feed again.

  • I can't get my itunes playlists to sync now that I had to get new computer.  My library is still there and the playlists show and I can even add to my playlists. But as soon as it goes to sync it says it can't find all the songs that used to be there.

    I can't get my itunes playlists to sync now that I had to get a new computer.  They all appear in my library and show in my playlists.  I can even download new songs from the itunes store to those playlists but when it syncs only the new songs go on the ipod.  It says it can't find any of my "old" songs and puts an exclamation mark beside them.  I am clueless when it comes to these things.  Advice please!  We have three ipods on this account trying to figure it out.

    You can only sync to one computer.
    You would have to transfer purchases, but the apple ID would need to be the same.
    Or find a 3rd party app to transfer content.

  • I sync my iPad. Now everything is messed up playlists and music are gone. Weird stuff showed up. And now I can't find the option to delete or make new playlists. 6.1.2 is my newest version!! NEED HELP!!

    So I don't sync my iPad very often. My dad and I share a computer. And I decided to do it the other day. I am pretty sure I did it all correctly selecting music that I wanted not deleting playlists but it seems to be that they are gone. And music I didn't want has appeared. And now I don't have an option (with this new iOS 6.1.2) to make new playlists or edit music I don't want out.
    I know I need help figuring those two things out 1 how to make a play list. There isn't a "add" button anymore in that screen I have a "you have no playlist"with a button underneath that says "go to iTunes Store" why I would need the store for that, I do not know.
    Then in the songs, artists, albums sections where you used to be able to hit "edit" button to delete the music you have that you don't want. I don't seem to be able to do anything at all to get rid of the random music I have.
    I need help. I know my iPad fairly well but I am not super savvy with it either.

    Is there a "New" button at the top right of the Playlists section of Music?
    There is no Edit button to delete music, swipe sideways on the song to reveal the delete button. Tap and hold on the artwork in Artists and albums to reveal the (X) button to delete. Or connect the iPad back up to iTunes on the computer and check your sync settings for music to ensure you are syncing the right content.

  • My Ipod Touch won't play music.  When I click on Itunes, all it does is open the ITunes Store.  There are no playlists at all, but they show up on my computer just fine.  I have tried syncing several times, and have tried making a new playlist.

    I have tried making a new playlist, and have synced it a gazillion times.  This all happened when I bought a new computer and transferred my Ipod to it...with upgraded Itunes software.  I have tried everything.

    Thanks -- actually I worded the question wrong.  I was trying to find my songs icon and kept reloading Itunes to try to find it.  All I could get was the store.  I finally figured out how to reset the desktop and I got my icon back.  Thanks for your answer.

  • Playlist does not contain new items after sync.

    We recently pruchased 4 new songs from iTunes on the iPhone.
    All 4 songs were successfully downloaded.  We Sync'd the iPhone with iTunes on a Windows PC.  All 4 songs are now in the library on the PC.
    We then used iTunes on the PC to add the 4 new items to an existing playlist.  For what it is worth, we do all our playlist maintenance on the PC and then sync back onto the iPhone and our iPad because we find playlist maintentance on both mobile devices very clunky and time-consuming.
    Once we added the 4 items to the playlist, we then sync'd the iPhone and the iPad with the PC again.  It all went smoothly as normal.  The new songs are in the 'songs' list on both the iPhone and the iPad.  However, the playlists do not contain all the songs on either devices.
    The iPad sync options are set to sync the entire music library.  The iPhone sync options are set to only sync specific playlists - and I checked that the playlist that contained the new songs was selected for the iPhone.
    I tried creating a new playlist on the PC with just the 4 new songs and sync'd it with the iPad - the new playlist appeared on the iPad, but it only had 1 of the 4 songs in it.
    I added the same *new* playlist to the selected set of playlists to sync for the iPhone.  The playlist appeared on the iPhone, but this time with 3 of the 4 songs (one missing).  Random!  Worse, frustrating!
    When I expand the device tree in iTunes on the PC (with the device still connected) to see what it thinks is in the playlist on the device, it always shows the correct content - but when you look on the actual device the content varies as above.
    Can anyone shed some light on what has happened here, and preferrably, how I stop this random behavior and get this all back on track.
    I believe all the software and all devices is up to date.  I am running iTunes 11.1.3.8 on Windows.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    *** Update ***
    We purchased another song on iTunes today.  We added it to one of our playlists on the PC and sync'd the iPad.  On this occasion the four songs we added to playlists yesterday all sync'd correctly.  However the new song we purchased today did not sync into the playlist.  I can't imagine why, but is there some kind of delay built into the sync'ing mechanism somewhere?
