iTunes playlist oddness

I was messing about transferring some playlists to micro SD card for
my phone using the excellent SyncTunes last night when I noticed some
weirdness in iTunes.
I looked at the contents of a playlist, noticed it didn't have a
couple of albums I wanted, and so I added them.  I then got the these-
are-already-there-skip-cancel-ok dialogue box.  Hmm.  Weird.  I
noticed that if I restart iTunes and look at the playlist then I can
see everything in the list correctly.  However if I flick between
different playlists they quite often show as incomplete - i.e. there
are items in them that don't display in the list, although they *are*
there as evinced by the results when you copy these items into the
playlist again.

Has anyone seen this?  I updated iTunes to latest via Software Update
a while back, which may have something to do with it.

Any suggestions for a fix?

iTunes has a few funky issues.  Your only option if you want to keep using
it, is to live with them.

Should I have let him spin his wheels?

Maybe macfixit could help - he would have to wade thru tons of Apple issues
though.

this is the most unhelpful post I've seen this month, and there's been
some doozies.

Well done!

I've not seen this but I would consider forcing iTunes to rebuild it's
iTunes Library data and xml files.
