iTunes wipes music synced by MM [#16998]

Post by Chrysh »

I have the same problems as described as downsides of a workaround in https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=16998:
- music synced by MM is not visible in iTunes, but will be still visible and playable by iPhone itself
- iTunes sync wipes music synced by MM

The problems occure when syncing by MM5 as well as by MM4.

I'm a little bit confused because the issue is said to be fixed since build 2270.

I'm using:
- iPhone 13 mini, IOS 16.2
- iTunes Version 12.12.7.1
- MM 5.04.2690 Standard edition
- MM 4.1.31.1919 Gold with iPhone Sync Plugin for MM4 V. 16.0

Thank You for Your support

The issue is not marked as fixed (there is a fix for older devices), and it has a target of MediaMonkey 5.2 for a full fix.

Hi,
that was apparently fixed for legacy devices eg. manufactured <2018 and for now no way to make it work for newer devices. Only safe way is to avoid is that not sync with iTunes or MM resync will be needed :(

Many thanks for your immediate answers! So I understand and look forward to MM 5.2 :wink:

Suggestion: A hint in https://www.mediamonkey.com/support/kno ... le-device/ could be helpful for persons like me who have to sync their calendars by itunes.
