music mp3s I add to playlists, do not sync to my iPad or iPhone. The files are there, just not in the playlists. It

Music/mp3s I add to playlists, do not sync to my iPad or iPhone. The files are there, just not in the playlists. It just started, possibly after the Monterey update. Very frustrating. I can find the files on the iPad, but they don't appear in the playlist they were assigned. If I find them on the iPad, move them to the specific play list, then it stays in place, but it also alters the playlist on my Mac. Very confusing and inconvenient. Makes me go through multiple extra steps. I use the play lists with my band.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.1

Hi cmachen, We appreciate you reaching out to us. We understand that the music that you add to your playlist on your Mac doesn't sync with your iPad.

We’d like to gather additional details that may help us be in a better position to assist you. Do you have an Apple Music subscription or an iTunes Match subscription?

If yes, enabling Sync Library may help with these issues.

Turn on Sync Library with Apple Music

If no, we recommend that you ensure that the sync is set up correctly.

I actually chatted with one of your reps yesterday and she helped me to do a back up and update the software on the iPad and that seemed to solve the issue. Thanks for your help.

There seems to be an open current and not yet fixed issue going on at the moment on this. Hopefully they come up with a fix soon.
