I'm having a couple of problems since updating to the latest iOS and iTunes.
1. When I sync my iPhone 5, some number (often, but not always, 348,
sometimes 351) of my songs are copied over, even though they're already
there. I've tried a few things to fix it:
- I turned off music syncing, synced, turned it back on, synced
again, so iTunes copied all 2,062 songs. Immediately after that I hit
Sync again and it didn't copy anything, as expected. However, next time
I launched iTunes and synced, it synced 348 songs.
- I restored the iPhone. After everything got copied back over, a
Sync to the iPhone didn't copy anything, until I launched iTunes again.
I'm not modifying, or even listening to, any songs between syncs. It
looks like the songs synced each time are similar, although not exactly
the same, but I don't see anything the songs have in common. I've tried
a different cable with no change.
In previous attempts I haven't played any songs either place, but just
now I tried a couple of songs (as an aside, why the @!$# is the Songs
list sorted by artist. Any way to change that?) I see it sync every
time, and they play just fine on the iPhone, so I know they've been
copied (and copied, and copied...).
I don't have Apple Music, these are all songs local on my Mac (a MacBook
Pro running an up-to-date Yosemite). I also sync the exact same songs to
my iPad Air 2, and that works fine, iTunes copied them once and now only
copies a song if I modify it in some way.
2. iTunes doesn't see my iPad Air 2 unless it's connected directly to my
Mac, *usually*. I got iTunes to see the iPad by rebooting both my Mac
and the iPad, in which case iTunes saw the iPad the first couple of
times I ran iTunes, but then stopped. I then reset the network on the
iPad, rejoined WiFi, and iTunes saw the iPad the first time it launched,
but not subsequent times. The iPad is on WiFi provided by the Time
Capsule the MacBook Pro is wired to (WiFi is off on the MacBook Pro),
and they can see each other, for example I can VNC or ssh to the MacBook
Pro from the iPad, and if I turn on a server on the iPad (I used the
Files app, which has a builtin WebDAV server), I can see the iPad from a
browser on my Mac. If I physically connect the iPad to the Mac, iTunes
sees the iPad fine. "Sync with this iPad over Wi-Fi" is checked, and I
tried turning it off, syncing, then turning it back on and syncing again.
My iPhone is normally wired to the Mac, but I unplugged it and
launched/quit iTunes a number of times and it saw the iPhone each time.
The iPhone's on the same WiFi as the iPad.
Both iPhone and iPad are running iOS 10.0.1 updated from within iTunes
12.5.1.21.
I didn't have either of the problems with iOS 9.x (can't remember the
exact version, but both the iPad and iPhone were up-to-date) or the
previous iTunes, and haven't really changed anything else.
Any thoughts?
Brian
