It says I'm running the full version and if I try to do the upgrade again, it says "already purchased. I won't delete it on my ipad as that's where the playlists are. I tried to upgrade that and it also says already purchased. I assume this means I'm on the latest version on both devices. I have logged on/off icloud on both devices, closed smp on both devices, got into my icloud settings on both devices and checked that it saw the other one. It does. No matter what I do, I can't get them to sync. I created a new playlist on the ipad and it does not show up on the iphone.

Since I had previously purchased the “add-on” features that constitute the full version, I went ahead and restored my “in-app” purchase. This enabled me to create additional playlists on the 9.3.5 device and they were quickly synchronized to the other devices.

I suspect that an older version of iMazing used a different mechanism for creating playlists and this folder was created a long time ago when I first made a playlist. Perhaps, you have some remnants of this older playlist system which should be deleted.

I am an iOS developer, and I can tell you that with recent versions of iOS, Apple has locked down various areas of the iPad in order to keep them from prying eyes. For example, it used to be possible to view and even gain access to all sorts of app components. I’m sure most developers appreciate the fact that this is no longer possible. (I hasten to add that I personally enjoyed looking at the construction of other apps. I saw some weird stuff!)

These plists typically store all sorts of settings, and when they get messed up, the apps can crash or have other problems. In general, the best way to get rid of a problem plist is to delete and reinstall the app—despite the fact that that can be a pain.

I don't know anyone with a newer Ipad that I could test this out although it would seem that since my playlists are on the ipad mini, I still wouldn't be able to get them to a newer Ipad.

I am able to get all the songs transferred to each device (iphone, ipad, ipod) but cannot get the playlists on each device. Roni Music says they are supposed to sync the playlists via i-cloud. On both my Ipad (where the playlists are) and the iphone are signed into the same i-cloud account and that seems to be working. SMP however will not sync. In the settings, both devices are set to allow sync. I have emailed with Roni Music and they do not have any suggestions.
