1672: ios7 sync issue updating properties

Post by Taronyx »

Windows 8.1 system with latest Itunes. When I update the rating on the phone the change is not synched back to the file on the computer. Also, when I update the album art on the PC, the change is not synched to the iphone. THis is an iphone 5 not jailbroken.

I actually don't know if this is because the songs are part of an autoplaylist or not. I sync all new music to the device with 3 stars, then as I listen to them, I either move them up and they stay on the phone as part of another autoplaylist, or I decrease to two stars so they will be removed from the phone (as they don't fit the criteria for the autoplaylist anymore), but the rating is not getting updated on the PC from the phone. Same goes for the artwork...if I update it on the PC, it doesn't sync to the phone. If I delete all the music off the phone, then the artwork is updated with the new file.

Hi, updated Rating is synced fine here (iTouch 5, iOS 7.0.4), I need to just either re-connect the device or perform another auto-sync, and the change is immediatelly reflected in MM.

If it doesn't work for you, then catching this in debug log (item 4b here http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... ?f=6&t=341 ) might shed light on this.
Also ensure that you are watching the same track in MM (to exclude test error)

Thanks Ludek,

Is the track part of an autoplaylist that you are testing with?

Also, is the album art updating from the PC to the iphone?

Okay, it appears the rating from iphone --> PC is working correctly. However the album art update is not. If I have the file as part of the autoplaylist and sync the phone after updating the art on the PC, MediaMonkey does recopy the file to the phone, but the artwork still doesn't show up. If I manually send the file to the phone via the "Send to iphone" feature, it does update the artwork.

Does anyone else see this behavior?

1681: Adding Lyrics does not resync

Post by jcoons72 »

Similar to the adding album art issue, when you add lyrics to a song, it does not resync to the iphone. I don't know if this is by design or not. These songs are not part of an autoplaylist, just a synced album. I can workaround the issue by manually syncing the songs to the iphone using the "Send to iphone" feature.

Thanks for all you do!

Jim
