IPhone :: If I Sync 4s With A New Computer, Will I Lose Playlists That Were Created On The 4s Not In Itunes
Jun 9, 2012
I recently purchased an iphone 4s, and shortly after, my son dowloaded a virus on my computer, and I had to a factory reset (for the 3rd time in 6 months). Now all of my playlists are stuck on my iphone. I have all of the music files backed up, but I really don't want to have to create all of my playlists AGAIN. I read a post online that said that if you create a playlist on the iphone, it will sync back to itunes, so I copied all of my existing playlists on the iphone again, so that they would now be 'new' playlists.
The problem is, when I start the sync to itunes, I get the message that says if I sync with the computer, all files on the iphone will be replaced with files from itunes. Right now, my itunes is empty. If I go through with the sync, am I going to lose everything on the iphone, or will it copy all of the 'new' playlists from the iphone into itunes? I guess it's not the end of the world if I have to recreate the whole library, but it took me about 12 hrs to do it last time, so I really don't want to have to go that route if I don't have to!

I'd like to sync my iPhone to a new mac. I was syncing it on my old desktop which is gone now, and it was updating the music by syncing it to a playlist. I don't want to plug it in and lose all the songs because I'm now syncing to a different library. Is there a way to plug my iPhone in to a new computer with a new library under a new iTunes store account, and be able to add songs from that new computer/account without losing the ones that are synced to the phone right now? Can an iPhone have two different providers assigned to it? I'd like to have one US provider and one Canada provider, so that when I cross the border I can turn one network on and one network off, depending on which country I'm in each week.

I created playlists on my iPhone 5, but iTunes only shows an older playlist with songs no longer on my iPhone, instead of the new playlists with the new songs. The Sync option under the iPhone Music tab in iTunes seems to be a computer-to-iPhone option only.Â
I don't care if it's iTunes or something else, I need an efficient way to backup a copy of my playlists (not necessarily the songs, just the lists of songs) for future reference and ideally with export/import options.Â
1) Is there any way to fix iTunes to show the playlists and allow them to be exported?
2) If no, are accessible copies of the playlists included somewhere in iPhone backups?
3) If no, is there an app that can accomplish the task of backing up these playlists?

I am so tired of Apple screwing up my iPhone either with iOS or iTunes updates. This time I updated iTunes to 10.6.1, synced my iPhone, then I got a call and I notice that the ringtone wasn't the one I had set up as the default. I started checking and all my ringtones and music playlists were gone.

I want to sync iTunes playlists to my HTC One M8, but can find no way to do so. I've spent more than 2 hours on the phone with HTC tech support, none of whom could solve my problem.
I know I CAN copy songs onto my phone, but for playlists to work they need to be organized in folders by artist, with subfolders by album. If they aren't I have to recreate every single iTunes playlist manually. Then, any time I change a playlist, I have to make the change a second time on the phone.
I know I CAN copy all the songs onto the phone and have iTunes sort them as a new library, but I can never sync them once I do that. Every time I add or change a song in iTunes, I'll have to remember to go to my phone and make the same changes.
What I NEED to do is sync selected playlists in iTunes with my phone in such a way that the playlists will work (organized music folders) and that the music can be synced now and then, and any changes made since the last sync will be made on the phone as well.
This should be easy to do. This is syncing music at its most basic level. Every smartphone I've owned previously was able to do this by default. Apparently the HTC One M8 is incapable of this.

Media Sync does not work with the 808 like it did for my E7?Does the Nokia Suite sync with itunes library to import playlists over? or do I need to recreate all my playlists from itunes in the suite?I wonder if I can copy the playlists files from my Nokia E7 over to the 808 and see if the 808 Music player pics them up rather than doing it all manually?

My iTunes playlists do not show up when Motocast USB launches. As such, there is no way to sync music to my device. I've been on the phone with Motorola for many hours over many days with this issue, but they haven't been able to resolve it. The issue is currently being sent to the "engenieering department," and I was told it could take weeks to get a response.Other than this issue the device works fine.I can manually add music to the device, but a $250 fitness MP3 player without playlists? No way.I've un/reinstalled the Motocast USB software several times and made sure my iTunes is up-to-date, but it seems that the two programs are not communicating with one another.(note: I have the MOTOACTV 8GB model and my macbook pro is running on OSX 10.7.2)

My iPhone is telling me to plug it into the itunes on my computer but when I do plug it in nothing happens apart from the sound which recognises that it is plugged into the computer and it starts to charge but stops after about 10 seconds, what can I do to stop this happening and to get the phone to syncronize to itunes?

I have a new computer and have continually had problems syncing. Now it says computer is no longer authorized to play purchases on my iPhone. When I put in password etc. to authorize, it says it is already authorize. Then it syncs up to step 5 and repeats again. I have tried entering my password about ten times. Same thing. It is already authorized. But then when I try to sync, it says it is not authorized!

When working with Itunes and the iphone, the apps syncing checkbox is always on and faded, so I can't sync the music library without syncing the apps. I have several apps downloaded from cydia and don't wanna have to download again. Drag and drop is not working, so it also forces to install every app I have on iTunes (deleting non itunes apps) when I just want to install one. I tried changing store accounts, rebooting phone, rebooting computer but no results.
The system is as follows:
Jailbroken iPhone 3g firm 3.1.2
iTunes 9.03
Mac OSx

I've had my HTC one almost since it came out and I love it, but lately I've noticed a change in how Zoe works.
In the past, when I connected my phone to my computer, I was able to see every picture Zoe had created. While this was a little messy it was great if I wanted to ensure I had at least one good picture; all I had to do was press Zoe and then look through the pictures it created.
However it's stopped doing that; now, when I connect to my computer I only get the 3 second video and the first frame.

so i believe this is one of the more well worth apps to pay 10 bucks for. no cables is such a nice touch to adding directly all content from itunes. practically no real need for mobileme in my opinion due to this.anyways i was so pleased with the results that i created my 1st Internet video review of it.hope it is informative enough to convince others its capabilities

I'm having difficulty in getting all the playlists that I have on my itunes to transfer on to my iphone 4, it wasn't always like this. I could see all my playlist before but then some off them vanished (I think this may have happened after I updated the software some time ago)
When my phone is plugged into my computer (so that I can see it on itunes) I can click on my named iphone and all the playlists are visable, for eg: my top rated, recently added, recently played, top 25 most played but when i look at the playlists on my actual iphone I can't see them there.

I recently went through my itunes and deleted all of the songs and readded them to itunes after moving my song file locations. I then plugged in my iphone to sync to my re-done itunes. All of the music synced to the iphone except for when I went to some new playlists many of the songs did not appear in the playlist even though they were in the master list of songs. I have tries turn my iphone off and on and re-syncing the iphone many times. All of the songs are checked on itunes, my iphone is set to sync all checked items and I have my iphone set to sync all playlists on my itunes. Is there any way I can get the rest of the songs to show up in the playlists?
ps. It's an iPhone 4s and is less than a week old. I also have an ipad 2 but I'm afriad to sync pss. Most of my song files aren't from itunes and rather were downloaded onto a different computer as mp3s off of cds and were transffered to my new computer a while ago. They worked on my iPhone and itunes until i recently moved all of my songs to a file within my "music" file (for organization purposes)
