Q: what do my playlists keep duplicating?

Every so often my playlist titles reproduce, making it difficult to page down on my Ipad to find the songs I want. It seems this is a common problem. Is there any fix?

iPod touch (3rd generation), Windows 8

    This seems to an occasional problem that can occur during synchronization. Is there are particular pattern to the repeated lists? Take a look at this thread: Re: iTunes 12.2 keeps duplicating playlists. How do I make it stop? I suspect you need to clean the library and then reset the syncing mechanism either with a backup restore cycle or by removing all sync selections and then setting them up again.

    Cleaning the library will not resolve the  problem   i have already done it several times

    with two iPhones ne iPad two iPods and one mac  , it becomes too much to clean after every sync  . Apple should resolve the problem from iTunes software  .

    As i have the other problem  all the applications (i have 203 apps) updated on iPhones or iPad  are not updated on iTunes directly  by sync.

    i'm fed up  with all these problems 

    when i will find a good equivalent to iTunes to manage apps , audio ,video  ,i will shift  . if i don.t find i will **** to android  once for all
