Never mind. Have to hook both idevices to mac using a cable. Then the sync occurs and the playlist copies over. You'd think that in this day and age wifi syncing would be automatic, especially when box is checked to show this phone when on wifi is checked. Then again, unfortunately the phone does not show when everything is on the same wifi despite the box check, and syncing only occurs when connected via cable, something I pointed out to Apple several months ago. Guess they have higher priority bugs to fix.
