cannot sync iPhone 7 with itunes

I have an iPhone 7plus that will not sync with iTunes. When I select playlists to sync or apply, it goes through the motions but nothing is transferred. I should mention that it had been working for years, but just stopped in the last month or so. I've updated iTunes, the iOS on my phone, but still nothing.

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 13
