Hello Alan I missed your email and now came across it. I have the same problem. There is no way that I can get music from itunes to my iPod touch. In the past I just checked the playlists that I wanted to sync and then pressed enter on the “apply” button. Now there is no way to select a playlist because the spacebar does nothing. Have you perhaps found a way to solve this? Regards Fanus

I think I've gotten the gist of what's needed with ringtones. However, I'm a bit perplexed why anything would have changed with music. Music isn't ringtones or apps so I would have thought that my music syncing would rock along with iTunes 12.7 much as it did with iTunes 12.6.x. When I connect my iPhone to my computer and navigate below the device summary listing to music, the panel to the right where it used to display my playlists with checkboxes for those I had marked to sync now shows the following: A Sync Music heading with an unchecked box next to it followed by two radio buttons the first which says entire music library and announces false since it is not marked and the second which says selected playlists and announces true. The odd thing is that this section is dimmed and neither of these radio buttons can be changed. If I tick the box next to the Sync Music heading in order to hopefully review my playlists marked for syncing, I get a question along the lines of are you sure you want to remove existing music from this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library? I don't ever remember iTunes behaving like this and before proceeding with the Sync music action, I wanted to run this by folks here for comments. I guess Apple is trying to protect those who are connecting their devices containing content from sources other than the connected computer in order to warn them that performing a sync will delete that content. I'm more than a bit confused with this since I would think such an action would be an exception rather than the rule and this seems confusing to those of us who simply have upgraded our iOS and iTunes and are syncing our iPhones as we've always done. It sort of feels as if I'm having to start the process over to sync my existing playlists with my iPhone in the iOS 11 world. I'm just a bit nervous about proceeding since my playlists aren't showing in iTunes even though the ones on my iPhone are still the same. And I do have the box checked to manually manage music and videos as has been discussed in the ringtones thread. Thanks for any comments or suggestions.
