Playlist changes on iPhone don't sync with iTunes?
Whenever I make changes to an existing Playlist on my iPhone, the changes are wiped out when it Sync's with iTunes on my computer? What can be done to prevent this?
As mentioned in my initial message the problem is not having double entries on iPhone but that entries and changes made on the iPhone are not reflected on the Apple units.
However, Just for the sake of it I followed your advise, which actually resulted in double entries on the iPhone. Luckily I could resolve the double entry problem on my own but I am back to square one.
I made the following tests:
1. New entry in address book on iMac: it shows on MobileMe and after a while on iPhone. After 1 night the entry is still available on iMac, MobileMe and iPhone
2. New entry made on MobileMe: it shows iPhone and is still there after 1 night; it does not show on iMac; after a while it disappears from MobileMe
3. New entry made on iPhone: it does show on MobileMe but disappears after a while; it never appears on iMac; after a while it even disappears from iPhone where I made the original entry.
Somehow it looks as any entry or change needs to be made on iMac as it seems to have overruling power over all other devices.
What do I expect:
1. When making a new entry on any Apple device (iMac, MacBook, iPhone, MobileMe) the new entry will show automatically on all devices and stay there
2. When I make any change on any device, that the change will be shown on all devices and stay there
3. That all devices show always the latest change made on any device, never mind on which device the change was made.
Those expectations are standard with Blackberry. My understanding is that those features are provided for with MobileMe or am I mistaken?

Podcasts played on iPhone don't sync with iTunes on my Mac
Sometimes my played podcasts on my iPhone do sync to iTunes, sometimes the podcast on iTunes is still marked as new and transfers back to my iPhone as unplayed.
What are the actual steps I need to take to ensure that my played podcasts are transferring to my iTunes as played with a Last Played date?I haven't noticed the issue with music, but with podcasts it is very noticable and annoying. Basically, it seems as if the iPhone is sending no information during the synch. Podcasts I have listened to and have been automatically deleted are re-added as soon as I synch. Has anyone tried unchecking the synch podcasts button on iTunes? I'm tempted to try it and see if the podcast app handles everything solo.

my iphone does not sync with itunes on my second authorized computer, please help. i changed the first authorized computer in May 2012 and have been using the second authorized computer since then but it cannot sync - please help!!
"I was thinking I would just connect my iPhone and all of my music and other stuff would transfer to the new computer. "
Not true. The music and pic sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
You really should transfer everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your computer. Since you do not have access to the old computer, then use your backup copy of the old computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( not good), then you would have to transfer itunes purchased as described earlier. Any other itunes content would be lost.
You can e-mail photo library pics to yourself, but they will not be of the original quality.
Before syncing, enter at least one unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. When you first sync, then you should get the option to merge the data. -
With iOS 7.0.4 Notes on iPhone don't sync with Notes on iPad
I upgraded both iPhone 4 and iPad 2 to iOS 7.0.4.
With iOS7 my Notes on iPhone don't sync with my Notes on iPad.
In both devices I have set iCloud ON for Notes.
In the Notes App I selected the iCloud Account.
But when I write a new Note on iPhone 4 it doesn't appear on iPad 2 and viceversa.
How can I fix this bug?
Thanks a lot!You're welcome

then I went on iCloud.com with my iPad, but I wasn't able to see the Note.
You can't go to icloud.com using Safari on your iPad, you have to go there using your computer. If you didn't do so, try going to icloud.com and check your notes using your computer browser. -
HT1386 iPad or iPhone won't sync with iTunes
My iPad or iPhone will not sync with iTunes. I have googled it and none of those suggestions worked. I don't see the device listed in the sidebar or on the top. It doesn't recogonize the unit when I first plug it in as to what I want to do. I have shut it off and turned it back on but nothing happens. All the software is up to date.
Can anyone help???Have either synced with the computer before?
NO,
Authorize the computer for your iTunes Account.
Turn home sharing on both computer and devices.
Yes,
Is iTunes up to date on the computer? Mac or Windows? iPad should be running 7.0.4, not 6.1.4.
Close iTunes completely, then load iTunes again. -
Just replace my HD, restored from backup but now my iPhone won't sync with iTunes over wifi
Just replace my HD, restored from backup but now my iPhone won't sync with iTunes over wifi
Is synching over wi-fi viable? I've never done it, but when I tried something similar back in the old Palm PDA days, it was S-L-O-W, slow as molasses. I realize that the i-device are far more modern with faster processors, but wondering whether it's even worth exploring doing this.

iPhone won't sync with iTunes and It says iTunes can not add songs to iPhone because no songs in iTunes library can be copied to iPhone. Help!!!! What should I do. I tried everything!
I need to add my music to my iPhone from iTunes but its not working!First off try and go into your IPhone manually through My Computer and cut photos or anything you can through the device to be able to free space up so that you can continue to do what you want to do with ITunes. This way you will be able to create a backup or do what you have to do to manage your information, photos and texts on your device a little better.

Greetings strepac,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that iTunes is becoming unresponsive when you connect your iPhone and try to sync it. In this situation, I would recommend reading over the attached article and working through the suggested troubleshooting steps within.

I got a new iphone- went to sync with itunes just to get music and it restored my phone to my old phone's settings. lost everything including ALL of my pictures. Is there any way to unsync my phone so I can get everything back?!!! please say yes!!!!
In short. No, you cannot unsync. If you had a back up from your old iPhone you cand restore from a back up.
In iTunes go to Edit > Preferences > Devices > and select the latest back up.
Before you synced your phone did you have it set up with the PhotoStream or iCloud? The pictures would be saved there. Or if you had them sync to a file on your computer. -

iphone will not sync with itunes or ture on only with it on a charger but will only keep popping up the apple sign or on acation show iso6 on screen and say sync with conputer but as soon as i take it off yhe charger it wont do anything
I followed the instructions in those 2 articles. Still not able to see the device in ITunes. I reinstalled the latest iTunes and all updates to my iMac (Mac OSX ver 10.6.8). I tried 3 different USB Cables in different USB ports. Rebooting both the Iphone and IMac. Still nothing seems to be working. I searched the discussion boards and I see other people with the same problem but they seem to run into the same problems finding a solution. I dont understand what happened because this was working properly up until 2 days ago. Do you have any more suggestions?

I have set up my iPhone to wifi sync with iTunes on my Mac Air, but my iPhone's contacts are not displaying in Contacts on my Mac...any ideas?
Hi there kushfromgbr,
You may find the information in the article below helpful.
About SyncServices
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5847
OS X Mavericks
OS X Mavericks v10.9 and later do not use SyncServices. Instead, Mavericks supports sharing your information using several network-based and cloud-based solutions. If you want to sync your information across multiple devices and computers, you should use one or more of these methods. These include iCloud, CardDAV servers, CalDAV servers, and servers that utilize the Exchange ActiveSync protocol.
If you would like more information about setting up iCloud on your devices you can take a look at the article below.
