Ive created a playlist on my iPhone 12 pro max. I connected my iPhone to iTunes and did a back up as well as a sync but my newly created playlist that was created on my iPhone is not showing up on my iTunes. I've signed off and on of my iCloud account and that did not work. I checked all my settings as my old settings are to manually manage my music instead of automatically sync when iPhone is connected. Please help. Thank You.

Playlists made on the device only sync back to the library if the device is set up for automatic syncing. If you turn it on now that will only remove the list, not transfer it. Try exporting the list that is on the device as an XML file (File > Library > Export Playlist...) then import that list into iTunes.
