Apple Music Smart playlist not working

IPhone iTunes smart playlist not syncing to iPhone

data synchronizationiphoneitunessmart-playlist

My smart playlists created in iTunes are not syncing to my iPhone. I have resolved to copying the songs that are in the smart playlist to a regular playlist to get the playlist onto the iPhone. Why is it that smart playlists won't sync?

Best Answer

I had the same problem, try:

  1. right click the playlist
  2. click 'duplicate'
  3. delete the old playlist
  4. then re-sync your iPhone/iPod or whatever

This worked out fine for me, i then just renamed the playlist taking '1' off the end (you'll know what i mean) - hope this helps!
