  • Trouble updating Mini " Playlist no longer exists"

    I recently tried to update my mini but the an error msg "songs on the iPOD cannot be updated because all of the playlists no longer exist" how can i fix this?

    You have your iPod set to update from Selected Playlists only. Right click your iPod in the source list of iTunes, clikck on "iPod Option..." and either change the update setting to another mode or uncheck the playlists that no longer exist.

  • IPod Nano Won't update,says playlists no longer exist,

    I am really getting frustrated with my iPod nano. First it started off by not updating songs. Then it started to erase songs when i connected it to itunes. So i erased everything hoping that would fix it. But now when I try to put them back on the computer says iPod update complete but there are no songs. It also say that the iPod can't be updated because the playlists no longer exist.
    If anyone knows how to fix this problem please respond as soon as possible.
    Thanks

    Ok, first try a restore. Next, on the playlist issue...
    Did you delete the playlists from iTunes? If so, then the iPod is trying to automatically update, but it can't, since the playlists no longer exist. Try putting your iPod into manually update; you can find that in the iPod Options tab.

  • Songs on Owner's ipod cannot be updated because playlists no longer exist

    I recently uploaded new CDs into my itunes library. When I tried to sync it said that it could only sync an owner's selection. I agreed because I was in a hurry. Later I came back to delete some of the songs that I do not use and I get the message "Songs on Owner's ipod cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist." I tried to delete some of the unused playlists and now my ipod is blank with not a single song on it. I want to get my playlists back and my music back.

    You will have to create a couple of new playlists to use to sync your iPod, then your iPod preferences will need to be change to sync on those specific playlists.

    I don't know of there is anyone than can fix this age old Apple problem.   Does anyone know how to retrieve apps under an old Apple ID when the email used for that account no longer exists & I can't remember the password? After speaking with Apple Acct. Security, I got the security Q right but my birthday was wrong! They wanted the serial number from my phone that was 3 iPhones ago! Seriously??!!
    Any updated way to work around this? No Apple people can correct it.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

  • How do I change the default apple ID that's displayed when buying or updating apps? Mine is defaulting to a no-longer-existing ID, and I don't know how to change it.

    How do I change the default apple ID that's displayed when buying or updating apps? It's currently defaulting to a no-longer-existing ID, and I don't know how to change it.

    Any apps you purchased with the no-longer-existing ID will always have to be updated with the password to that account, you cannot merge account purchases.
    To change to your new account go to Settings > Store > Apple ID: and put in the one you want to use.

  • "All of the playlists for updating no longer exist"???!!

    I created a few new playlists and deleted an old one in iTunes, and then when I plugged in my mini to update I get the message:
    Songs on the iPod “Kellee's iPod” cannot be updated because all of the playlists for updating no longer exist"
    There are no songs in my mini after this msg. I reset it, tried to update again, but got the same msg. Please help!!

    Hi Kellee!
    Why do people delete playlists?? Seems like you have the same problem someone I tried to help has. She got the exact same error message when she deleted a playlist. If I were you I would have shifted some songs around, changed the name of the playlist to something else but NOT deleted the playlist. I don't think you can get the same playlist back once you delete it. Question is why is your iPod not recognizing your new playlists and it's requesting to update the playlist you already deleted?? I'm afraid I can't help you but maybe someone else can. I just wanted to say this.

  • Cannont update because all playlists selected to update no longer exists.

    When I connected to itunes today, itunes states that the songs on my ipod cannot be updated because all the playlists no longer exist. I opened up MY playlist under just my name and there is nothing there. My library is still there and all the playlists I created are still there. Mine, the one that appears when the ipod connects, is empty. So I went to edit and selected a few playlists and then itunes stated that the dick couldn't be written to or read from. I also tried different ways to get that library in my list. I don't get it! I went to apple support and discussions, and the only thing I haven't done so far is to RESTORE my ipod. It I do this won't I lose my library on itunes and all the work I'be put into it??? PLEASE HELP. This should be more user friendly!

  • "All of the Playlists Selected for Updating No Longer Exist"

    My family has 2 ipod shuffles. After purchasing a Nano recently, I inserted the cd that came with it. Apparently the existing iTunes software was removed and reinstalled. At any rate, the library still shows all the original songs, but when the Nano is plugged in, iTunes immediately gives a prompt stating "Songs on the iPod *** cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for updating no longer exist." The library is there, the playlists that were there are there, and I can play the songs on my cpu. Is there anything I can do besides completely uninstalling everything and starting over?

  • Cannot update b/c all playlists no longer exist

    I cannot update my iPod. This is the error message I continually get when I try. 'Songs on the iPod "Aimee's iPod" cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for updating no longer exist.' I can see the playlists on the iTunes screen but when I tried to update it removed all songs from my iPod completely. I have tried reinstalling the iTunes software and the problem persists. Does anyone have any ideas. I have searched the Apple support website and cannot resolve. Thank you, in advance, for any assistance provided.

  • "playlist for updating no longer exists!"

    Recently my ipod reached its full capacity so I could not add anymore songs onto my ipod, instead it created a seperate playlist of songs which were most played etc. However I accidently deleted that playlist and now my ipod is blank and won't let me put songs on it
    the message reads : "songs on the ipod cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for updating no longer exist"
    does anyone know how i could fix this problem?
    any help would be much appreciated
    thanks!

    Open iTunes prefs-> iPod and set it to Automatically update selected playlists and select a new playlist.

  • Playsists selected for syncing no longer exist? ipod won't update

    My new ipod won't update because it says that playlists I've selected for syncing no longer exist. For this reason I can't get any of my music onto my ipod and I don't understand what I am supposed to do to fix this

    Hi guys, I've been having the same problem. Specifically, when I try to transfer songs from iTunes to my iPod I get the following error message: "Songs in the iPod "My iPod" cannot be updated because all the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist". I did some searching around at this site, and found that one possible problem is that my library is larger than my iPod's capacity, so I have to eliminate some songs. I did this, but I still get the same error message.
