Unable to add my personal playlists to my iPod Classic

Why am I unable to add my personal playlists that I've created in iTunes to my iPod Classic? When I am on the Sync Music page, none of my playlists that I've created show up. What am I doing wrong? I have never had problems syncing music in the past.

iPod Classic Playlist Sync I have an iPod classic which I would like to sync certain playlists to. But I can not now. The playlists are not even listed as an option. I go into "Sync Settings" to "Manually manage music, movies, and tv shows." I then tab over to "Music" and the playlists I want to sync are not listed. Even though they are on my Apple Music and I have synced them before to this same iPod classic. I know that certain songs that are NOT purchased can not be synced to the iPod classic. But this is not the issue this time.

Playlists don't sync to my iPod Classic I can get iTunes to sync all my music and my audiobooks, but it does not sync any of the playlists that I created. I have looked on this forum, but the solutions did not help. iTunes is set to automatically sync all music, so it should pick up the playlists but that's not happening. I've got the latest version of iTunes and my iPod Classic has plenty of space left. Please help. It's driving me nuts! Thanks

Syncing playlists to iPod and losing all existing playlists and music I tried to sync a playlist to my iPod, not only did it not put the new playlist on, it deleted all the other playlists I had on my iPod and most of the songs I had. What causes that and how do I fix it?

You cannot sync content from Apple Music or that is in the cloud.
