iTunes Match downloaded all but one playlist???

I just subscribed to iTunes Match. I have iphone 4 and ipod touch, 3rd generation (5.1.1). Anyway, iTunes Match downloaded all my songs and playlists except for ONE playlist. My iTunes Match is turned on in iTunes and I updated iTunes match 2 times today. All playlists are there except one. The songs area all in iTunes match as well, just not the playlist. I cannot figure out why all my playlists are accessible on my iphone and ipod except for one. This playist is still on my MacBrook Pro (new 2012) , and plays just fine on my laptop - can someone assist as to how to get iTunes match to accept this other playlist? (Of course, its the one I use the most.)

Thanks

OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

Hi,

Try creating a new playlist of the same songs, delete original.

Thanks - tired that, as well.

I finally called Apple Support after much frustration.

Evidently, iTunes Match is quite particular about what it can upload. Since one of my most recently purchased albums from iTunes included a digital booklet, it was also included as part of the album when I made the playlist. iTunes Match will only match items in basic format, no videos, etc. After I removed the Digital booklet (like an extra on a cd album), the playlist then downloaded no problem....sneaky.

Thanks, anyway - perhaps this post will help someone solve the same (yet simple) mystery.
