Playlist on iPhone but not seen with iTunes

I have a playlist on my iPhone named On-The-Go. When I connect to iTunes it not there. If I put songs in the playlist with the iPhone they disappear after syncing with iTunes. If I add a playlist On-The-Go in iTunes I get two playlist with the same name on the iPhone. Can someone tell me how to just have one On-The-Go playlist?
Thanks

You probably should buy an Apple computer.
When you make on On-The-Go playlist you can use it, add songs to it, clear it, etc. If you do a second On-The-Go playlist it will be On-The-Go1, then 2, etc. When you connect these to your computer they should transfer to iTunes. In iTunes you can add songs to them, delete them, edit them, change the name of them, sync them back to your iPhone with the new name, etc.

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. And then reboot your computer.
See if that fixes your problem.

"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.

Iphone will not synch with itunes after downloading most recent itunes version

I updated to most recent version of itunes and since then my 3GS iphone will not synch with itunes. the phone is recognized by my windows computer but not recognized within itunes. I redownloaded itunes and Q but nothing. Can anyone help?

I have a Dell XPS 8500 with a 64bit i5 Processor and an Apple 4s and I have the same problem. I have been searching for days and can only get the phone recoginzed by disabling power to USB ports and there is no way I can get ITunes to show devices, so I can't see the IPhone. People say Apple monitors these sites but I haven't seen any response from a technical person. Have you? My hunch is they know about the problem but don't have a fix, and have other priorities for their team. If my hunch is correct, its quite extraordinay because I am close to selling my 4s and getting some phone which is easier to work with. Time is my scarcest resource and I have devoted way too much of it to this issue.

HT1386 iphone will not sync with itunes the apple sign just keeps popping up

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?

How can I delete duplicate songs that are appearing on my iphone but not in my itunes?

How can I delete duplicate songs that are appearing on my iphone

Hi jpere041,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can delete individual songs, artists, albums, playlists, compilations and composers from your iPhone. To delete an item, swipe across it, then tap Delete.
This information is on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide
manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
Regards,
Jeremy

Hey my iphone is not synching with itune, how can i solve this problem?

It can sync with a 32-bit, so long as you have the correct version of iTunes installed. I'm assuming that you are referring to a Windows based computer, so check out this support document regarding the device not being recognized by Windows. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538

Are you signed into iTunes on the computer with the same Apple ID the apps in question were "purchased" with? Is the computer authorized for that account?

I downloaded some albums using my iphone, i then synced it with my PC. Now all the album artwork has gone from the songs i downloaded on my iphone, but not on the itunes on the pc. How can i get the artwork back on my iphone?

I downloaded some albums using my iphone (3GS), I then synced it with my PC. Now all the album artwork has disappeared off my iphone but not off itunes on the PC. How can I get the album artwork back onto my iphone?

I had the similar problem last night and found a solution (although it takes more than a few clicks). Highlight all the album tracks in itunes on the pc and right click "get info". Check the artwork box in this window. I found that the now playing art was showing up in the itunes window, but on songs that were missing artwork showed nothing in the get info box. When I replaced the artwork by using the artwork command, or manually adding it into the "get info" window. It was annoying but my iphone updated every album.

Hi,
I had my iphone stolen a few weeks ago which had quite a lot of music on that I had downloaded from itunes via my phone but had not synced with itunes on my computer.
Is there any way to access the music now or is it lost? Thanks x

By any chance, did you have the Find My iPhone app installed prior to it being stolen?

Hopefully you had your iTunes purchases backed up to an external source such as an external drive or CD's?

IPhone 5 not syncing with iTunes 10.0.3

My iPhone 5 (version iOS 6.1.4) is not syncing with iTunes 10.0.3 ?
When I plug my iPhone 5 into my Mac Pro (version OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.3) the iPhone 5 syncs with iPhoto but not iTunes ?
The phone 5 is being charged via the USB cable into the Mac Pro, I can import photos via iPhoto from the iPhone 5, but I can not get iTunes to sync with the iPhone.
I have gone through all the steps in the "iPhone not appearing in iTunes" support assistant link with no luck:
iPhone not appearing in iTunes
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/itunes/#section_1
Does anyone have any suggestions ?

I finally got iTunes to sync with my iPhone 5
I followed the step by step instructions in this archived support article:
Archived - Mac OS X v10.6: iOS device not recognized in iTunes after restart
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3540?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
If the issue remains, try these steps:
Disconnect the device and quit iTunes.
In the Finder, locate iTunes in the Applications folder and drag it to the Trash. (This will not remove any of your iTunes media or your iTunes library.)
Choose Go > Go to Folder. Enter the following location into the text field that appears:
/System/Library/Extensions
Click Go.
Locate the file "AppleMobileDevice.kext" and drag it to the Trash.
Restart the Mac.
In Finder, click the Go menu and then choose Go to Folder. Enter the following location into the text field that appears:
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks
Click Go.
Locate the folder "MobileDevice.framework" and drag it to the Trash.
In Finder, click the Go menu and then choose Go to Folder. Enter the following location into the text field that appears:
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons
Click Go.
Locate the file "com.apple.usbmuxd.plist~orig" and drag it to the trash. (Do not move the similarly named "com.apple.usbmuxd.plist" file to the Trash.)
Restart the Mac.
Download iTunes and reinstall it. Test to see if the issue persists. Then, restart your Mac a final time to confirm issue is still resolved.

My iPhone does not sync with iTunes

Since updating the software on my iPhone iOS 7.0.4, it will not sync with iTunes (ver 11.1.3) on my laptop. I can deselect and re-select podcast, music, audiobooks, etc. then sync. iTunes will act like it is synce (going through 6 steps) but nothing is transferred to my phone. Does does not matter what combination I used or how many time I try to sync and apply changes. Even if I change nothing and sync the phone, nothing appears on the phone was the sync is complete. This has been extremely frustrating.

You can try resetting your iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

Hello charheart,
I would be concerned as well if my iPhone was not recognized by iTunes. Thank you for providing all the information with the steps you took in regards to this issue. I found an article with a few more steps you can take (you can skip the steps you have already taken):
