I synced a playlist to my watch, which worked fine, until I upgraded my phone to iOS9.0.2 this week. Suddenly I cannot play music from my watch, and there's a sync "pending" which does not conclude, even though I had both devices on charge for 10 hours.
Apple Watch, watchOS 2
Hi Jeanette
Try removing your watch from the charger and then restarting both your iPhone and your watch. Turn both devices off first, then restart your iPhone before restarting your watch:
- To turn your watch off: press and hold the side button until you see the Power Off slider; drag the slider to turn off.
- To turn it back on: press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.
Check also that:
- All music within the playlist to be synced is already on your iPhone and does not first need to be downloaded from the cloud (eg Apple Music).
- Your watch is still paired with Bluetooth headphones (on your watch: Home screen > Settings > Bluetooth).

Thank you! That helped a lot
You're welcome! 🙂
This advice solved my problem too. Thank you!
