Hi again!
So, I'm reporting a sync bug.
I decided to make my setlists pop a little better by adding emoji to some of their names. I did this on my MacBook. When I then synced to my iPad, both sides ended up with NEW playlists instead of the renamed ones:
MS obviously thinks these are new setlists, not renamed ones. It seems like the sync must be keying on the name of the setlist (which changed) rather than some internal ID (which would not have changed). But I used the "Rename" feature, so MS knew that my intention was just to "rename", not to create a new setlist, like maybe a "duplicate" or "save as..." operation would have implied. So I would expect MS to sync based on Setlist ID and treat the name as an attribute of the list that should be synced.
(Note that the setlists have different numbers of songs because I also deleted a bunch of tunes on one side before syncing. That shouldn't have any impact on this issue).
Thanks in advance!!
Dave
