Why has my recently added playlist disappeared

why had I lost my recently added under the playlist on my iphone

If you've deleted the playlist in error the default rules are shown here, though you're free to define the list any way that suits you.
It's worth noting that some builds of iTunes won't sync smart playlists that include references to podcasts so Playlist is Music may be a better filter than Media Kind is not Podcast.

  • Why wont my recently added playlist sync to my iphone?

    recently added playlist wont sync to iphone

    I have the same issue with my iPhone 5 (iOS 7.0.4) on a Windows7 PC updated with the very latest iTunes. My other iPode (nano - old and new) sync just fine. Only my phone is affected.
    I have one album I purchased from iTunes that won't sync via a plain playlist that I made just for that album. (The song files transferred to my phone as part of the "purchased" category. But I can't sync a playlist made on my computer containing those same songs.)
    Another plain playlist I made for some spoken short story files in my library won't sync either.
    There are no error message that appear while syncing; nothing stating that songs didn't transfer.
    Also, if I try to make a new playlist on my phone and adding the "purchased" files to it, the album cover is wrong. The files will be available in the playlist that way, but with the incorrect artwork. (No idea what happens yet if I re-sync with this phone-make playlist.)

    Use the iTunes File menu > New smart playlist.  The rules shown below are the rules used in the original recently added playlist, but you may change them if you wish.

  • My "Recently Added" playlist has disappeared

    Help! My "Recently Added" playlist function seems to have disappeared. I'm sure my kids are responsible. I can't find the topic covered anywhere.

    It's very easy to recreate it. Create a smart playlist with the condition "Date Added is in the last [however long]". Make sure live updating is enabled.

  • Delete songs from iTunes library from "recently added" playlist

    can you please add a function that removes songs from both the entire library and the recently added playlist by simply right clicking a song while in the "Recently Added" playlist that has the "Delete" function. this is very simple and would make iTunes that much more user friendly.
    thanks!
    i have no idea where else to submit suggestions like this, apple people aren't user-friendly enough.

    We are only other users, such as yourself.
    You can send suggestions to Apple here -> http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
    Press *Shift Delete* to delete songs from a playlist and also from the library.
    (from your signature block)
    pc, duh
    Not really "duh". I have a pc and it is a Macintosh.
    The idea is to put correct info in your signature to help with problems you may be having As an example, if you had problems with your iTunes library disappearing and your signature showed "Sony Vaio", immediately we would know the Sony media software is the problem.
    why do you care
    So we don't have to ask when you post a question.

  • "recently added" playlist does not sync correctly

    Hi,
    i have an iPhone 5, ios6 and iTunes 10.7 (all German).
    In iTunes i have the smart playlist "recently added". It is sorted by the "last added" field.
    The playlist is setup as:
    added within last 2 month, mediatype is music, only marked objects, automatic updates.
    The playlist shows the correct titles in iTunes.
    When the playlist is synced, the "recently added" list, has a random order.
    I also found out - by chance - that i added an other playlist with lots of titles recently. They are organized in an own playlist and do not show up in the recently added list in iTunes.
    But after the sync the recently added playlist shows the newly copied titles.
    It seems like if the iphone does calculate it's own list and the "recently added" playlist is missinterpreted on the iphone as "titles which where recently copied to the iphone". The "date field" is not used for the playlist, only the date the files was copied.
    (Hope i described the problem as good as i can and you understand what i mean)
    Any suggestions?
    The same problem was with ios5 and was fixed in 5.x.x - i don't know the exact version.
    Will i again have to wait for apple to fix it within the firmware? Why is this error reoccuring ever firmware update????

  • I accidently deleted my "recently added" playlist. how do I get it back?

    I'm very new to itunes and having trouble getting the hang of it.
    I was trying to clean up some playlist files and was attempting to delete songs I didn't want or need. I hit shift-delete and all of sudden EVERYTHING disappeared. the songs I had purchased... stuff I had recently uploaded... everything.
    I went to the recycle bin and hit "restore" in the hopes that things would come back, but no luck.
    I was able to search my computer and get the songs I needed back, but it was quite frustrating. in addition, one of the things that disappeared that I wasn't able to retrieve was the "recently added" playlist, which was actually quite helpful to me.
    I attempted to upload a new CD to see if it would recreate the "recently added" list, but no luck.
    how do I get that back and make sure that future uploads are automatically saved to that playlist?
    thanks in advance for any help.

    In iTunes go to File>New Smart Playlist
    Recently Added:
    Match the rule "Date Added">"is in the last">"1">"Days" make the days and the interval to suit yourself, you can have days, weeks or months.
    Check the box "Live Updating"

  • Do NOT want Podcasts in "Recently Added" Playlist

    Is there anyway possible to make it so Podcasts (voice AND video) are not placed into the "Recently Added" Playlist? I frequent this playlist for new music, but don't want to have to listen to the flip over a podcast everytime.

    I had the opposite problem - after creating an iTunes account, podcasts disappeared from the Recently Added playlist. I listen to quite a few and subscribe to many, so having all the new episodes in one place was pretty useful.
    By using the suggestion (in reverse) in your solution, the playlist's behavior was restored to its previous (desirable) state.
    Thanks!

  • I just bought and downloaded an album.  the album/tracks are NOT found in my music listing alongside every other track i have purchased! however, they are found and playable in the recently added playlist. plz help

    i just bought and downloaded an album.  the album/tracks are NOT found in my music library alongside every other track i have purchased! however, they are found and playable in the recently added playlist.  in addition, when using the search queue in the upper right corner, the artist and album is listed when searched for, but when clicked on, nothung happens.  i have downloaded hundreds of tracks with no issue (not a noob), but have no idea what has occurred...plz help

    Have you checked whether the songs are in your iTunes library? If they are, then just drag them to your purchased playlist. If they aren't, try checking for available downloads.
    If none of the previous work, then get in contact directly with iTunes store support to tell them about your problem.

  • Deleted recently added playlist how do i add back to playlist and make destination playlist for imports

    i deleted recently added playlist and want to add back, and make it destination for imported songs how do i do

    Howdy Mark,
    The Recently Added playlist is a Smart Album that has specific settings to automatically add new content to that playlist. It can be recreated manually if accidentally deleted, you can use this article named Archived - iTunes: How to create a Smart Playlist found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1801.
    Choose File > New Smart Playlist.
    To have iTunes add songs that match specific criteria, make sure to select "Match the following rule," then make your selections from the pop-up menus.
    For example, you might want iTunes to only add songs that are by a particular artist, or songs with at least a four-star rating.
    To add additional matching criteria, click the Add + button.
    Here are the parameters to use when you create the new Smart Album:
    1. Check the box that says Match the Following rule:
    2. Change the first set of criteria to Date Added, In the Last, 2, weeks.
    3. Add another line for criteria by clicking the + button
    4. The second set of criteria should be as follows. Media Kind, is not, podcast.
    5. Uncheck Limit To, and Match only checked items, and check Live Updating.
    That when that is done you will have a new smart playlist that you can rename to Recently Added by double clicking the smart album name.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • I accidentally deleted my Recently Added playlist

    Hi all! I accidentally deleted my Recently Added playlist. I made a new one with the smart playlist thing but I cannot get any new songs to automatically add to it. Does anyone know how to get songs to automatically add to it? I'm devastated without this playlist. It was my favorite. Thank you so much!

    Any idea why the recently added list is set to 2 weeks? I would rather have had it set indefinately, so it always shows the last say 100 tracks. I seem to be abel to edit it to 100 tracks and set a date of 'in the last 12 months', but the date settings seems reluctant to accept an wild card asterisk.
    No major worries...

  • How do I extend the lifetime of the Recently Added playlist?

    When songs are downloaded into iTunes they appear in the "Recently Added" playlist for a while. After an unknown (by me at least) period of time, they disappear. Can I adjust the period of time, say to three, six, nine or twelve months, whare the songs would still appear in the "Recently Added" playlist?

    Control-click the playlist, choose Edit Playlist, and change the Date Added cutoff.

    See also Restore Original Smart Playlists. The version iTunes creates also has a rule that excludes podcasts.

  • Recently added playlist in ipod/hebrew language

    Hey.
    Why won't you do a 'recently added' playlist in ipod as we have in itunes?
    it can be very helpful!
    also, why ipod classic doesn't support hebrew language?
    Thanks.

    Nobody here can tell you why some feature you want isn't available, but you can ask Apple to add it via

  • Messed up Recently Added playlist syncing!

    Since I updated my iPhone 3G to 3.1 and iTunes to 9.0 I've noticed that my Recently Added playlist has not been syncing properly. It hasn't been updated on the iPhone since before I updated the software (iTunes + iPhone) even though I've since added more stuff to my library. The weird thing though is that the content that I've added recently does sync to my iPhone because I can find it if I search the phone but it just doesn't appear in the recently added playlist. The old stuff that does appear in my Recently Added playlist is now also in a mixed up order(not the way it appeared in iTunes).
    Another thing I've noticed is that some (although not all) podcasts are also in a mixed up order on the iPhone; not ordered by episode number or date! Scrolling through my podcasts has also become slow and "sticky" if you well; not as smooth as it usually is, same for videos(scrolling through my songs or playlists however, is normal).
    Have I missed something in the new syncing features in iTunes 9.0 or what's going on here? If I can't fix the problem would creating a new smart playlist with the same settings as the Recently Added playlist fix the problem..haven't tried that yet.
    Thanks for any help or guidance!
    Sam

    I have the exact same issue. Only, the order is correct, in reverse.
    I get the 50 First added songs, instead of the 50 Last added songs... I wonder what went wrong and if Apple will resolve this matter. Did you try to call for support?
