It’s not really a sync, but you go to the iTunes node in the tree on the left, find your playlist, right click and add to collection. You can add the playlist or just the tracks.

Traktor 3 used to have a really neat feature.  
You could right/ctrl click on the Playlist Node and chose “Import Playlist From iTunes” and select a whole bunch of iTunes playlists and import at once.

I did this on a Monday for all my Monday playlists then id delete them from Traktor on a tuesday an import my tuesday playlists etc. This way i could keep the Traktor tree simple and free. Plus doing one at a time like now is shitty, so i dont bother.

They removed that feature in Pro and i cannot work out why.
