Her iPhone will need to be set up to iTunes Match using your Apple ID to be able to share music via iTunes Match. Otherwise you'll have to download the music to your computer and then copy those tracks into her iTunes library, assuming hers is separate.

  • HT204406 On my ipad when I go to settings, music, turn on iTunes Match it is telling me it is going to replace the music on this device ? What does that mean and what will that do to the music on my ipad now?

    Hi Kuhl54,
    If you have questions about turning on iTunes Match on an iOS device, you may find the following article helpful:

    Important:
    When enabling iTunes Match on your iOS device, the music library on your iOS device will be deleted and then replaced with your music in iCloud.
    Syncing music with iTunes will be disabled while iTunes Match is enabled on your iOS device.

  • How do you sync iPod Touch music library to iTunes Match for transferring to/using on main computer iTunes?

    Hello, and thank you for any help anyone can offer. I subscribed to iTunes Match to transfer my music that's been stuck on my iPod Touch (iOS 5.1.1) to my new computer.
    First, some background to explain my problem. On an old laptop, I had 15,000+ songs (mostly video game music downloaded online) that I synced to my iPod Touch. The computer containing that music started having trouble and likely died. I was unable to afford having it looked at, but all the music from it has remained on my iPod Touch.
    Recently, instead of trying to have the old computer fixed, I bought a new laptop. I was looking for a solution to get the music from my iPod Touch onto my new computer, since I know syncing with it would cost me every song I have on the iPod Touch that I didn't download on iTunes Store. I thought iTunes Match was the solution, that it would bring the music on my iPod Touch to the iCloud, and I'd at last be able to download my huge library onto the new computer from there.
    Now, the problem: I had to purchase the iTunes Match service on my laptop iTunes. It put all my purchased music from the laptop on iTunes Match. Well, when I go to iPod Touch and try to turn on iTunes Match, it says: "iTunes Match will replace the music library on this device." I assume if I do that, it'll wipe out my 15,000+ iPod Touch songs from my old laptop and replace them with the 1200 or so that I've purchased from the iTunes Store (which I already have on my iPod)!!! That is the last thing I want to do! Is there a way of getting my iPod Touch library to the cloud so I can access it on iTunes, or have I wasted $25 on iTunes Match? If I wanted to replace the 15,000 songs on my iPod with the little library of purchased music on my new computer, I would just plug my iPod into it and sync! Furthermore, my purchases were already available on the iCloud when I authorized this new computer, without spending a dime. I've put a lot of time into my library, and making playlists as well. Any help getting my iPod music on iTunes Match is greatly appreciated! Sorry if I've overlooked something obvious, this is my first experience with cloud-based services.

    iTunes Match does not work this way. The service does not scan the music on an iOS device, only an iTunes library. For your music to be available in the cloud it must first be in an iTunes library. See the following articles:

    An iOS device or iPod is not a storage device or backup of your music library. It is your responsibliity to maintain a backup of your music and other personal data.

  • How to delete parent table data even though it has child records

    hi all,
    How to delete parent table data even though it has child records.
    ex: delete from pa_request cascade constraints;
    But this command is not working .

    ex: delete from pa_request cascade constraints;cascade constraints is DROP table option. It can't be used with DELETE. You need to delete child rows first or drop foreign keys and recreate them with ON DELETE CASCADE. Then:
    delete from pa_request will automatically delete child rows. However, personally I don't like ON DELETE CASCADE. You can, by mistake, delete half of your database without even realizing it.

  • ITunes match being weird on iPad

    Hey,
    Ok, here is my problem.
    I have a huge music collection and I tried to add it to iTunes match from my MacBook air. During the iTunes match process it crashed a few times and generally didn't go well, the music collection ended up in a bad iCloud state with lots of the cloud symbols with the exclamation mark in the middle. I then switched iTunes match on on my iPad and the music collection was in a similar state: lots of greyed out songs, some played, some didn't, etc etc
    So I then deleted the whole music collection on my Mac taking care to tick the "also delete from iCloud box" so I could start again and give iTunes match another go from scratch. I then added some of the collection bit by bit and it went a lot better on iTunes match. The music collection now seems good with no errors and everything seems to play well. I have only added about 5% of it, but it's looking good so far.
    Now here is my problem: I then switched on iTunes match on my iPad and it just sees what was there before: loads of songs that I haven't added yet to iCloud, greyed out songs, errors, etc etc. How can I make my iPad see iTunes match in the state it is now on my Mac, the state it actually is in iCloud?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks.

    It actually says 'this device is already associated with an apple id and i cannot use it for match for 37days. What the **** is going on? All my apple id's are the same one. Tis is outrageous for something i've paid for.

    I purchased OSX 10.8 and it is on 2 of my computers can I put it on my wifes computer too even though she has a different apple ID?

    The OS X license states that you can install it on as many computers as YOU own and control. So, technically speaking, your wife needs to get her own license; however, if you both use the same Apple ID......
    FWIW, the license is not transferable, so if you sell/gift your computer, you must uninstall it and reinstall the original system (or the buyer will encounter major problems such as not being able to reinstall the OS if necesssary).

  • I just subscribed to ITunes Match. I'm trying to connect my wife's phone. She has a different Apple ID. How can I connect her?

    I just subscribed to ITunes Match. I was able to connect my phone and Ipad but I cant't connect my wife's phone. She has a different Apple ID.

    The iCloud and iTunes Store account ID are not the same thing. They can be different although some folks, like myself, do have the same Apple ID for all the Apple services. Go to Settings > Store and enter the exact same iTunes Store account ID you used to purchase iTunes Match. Be aware you can only switch Apple IDs on an iOS device every 90 days.

    Thanks for the question. If you have not already done so, I would download and install iTunes directly from the following link:

  • Can two Apple IDs be linked so that they can share data? My iMac and iPad have the same Apple ID and sync contacts, bookmarks, etc. My wife's iPad has a different Apple ID. Can it be linked somehow to mine to share contacts etc?

    No. You cannot link your contacts to hers. However, you can use Home Sharing to share the information:

    You can have one icloud account and a different itunes account on the phone. I have my icloud account and a shared itunes account. He does not have to use the new icloud account as is ID in itunes and app store. He can keep using the old one.

    You should be able to accept this message, it will cause existing music, photos (not camera roll) and videos (also excluding those in camera roll) to be removed and replaced with those from this computer. All other user data on the iPad will be unaffected.

    What does the iPhone have to do with anything?
    Don't plug yoru iPhone into his computer.
    Do I need my iPhone to do it or can I do it from iMac to iMac? Thanks for any help.
    So you have two different computers?
    Just enable Home Sharing and he can copy the songs from you iTunes to his then he can sync his iPhone to his iTunes.

    I'm not aware of a way to reset the password for an encrypted backup. If you have forgotten the password for an encrypted backup, your only alternative is to put the phone in recovery mode and restore it as a new device. Your data will be lost.
