HT4914 I want to sign up for itunes match but have too many songs.

I want to subscribe to itunes match but I have too many songs.  Is there a way to select songs to store w/match like I can when syncing devices?  I just get an error message that I can't subscribe because I have too many songs.  I want to be able to back up some of my library w/match. Do I have to delete songs just so I can subscribe?

I found the same thing wtih my iPad.  "Not available in USA".  I bought the iPad here, and I am definitely in the US, and my settings confirm that I am registered in the US.  So something else is going on.  I went to an Apple store; the technician there showed me how to sign on to iTunes on my home computer and register for itunes match on the home computer -- but when I got home I couldn't get it to work.

  • How can my wife access all of our itunes music if she signs up for iTunes match, but her apple id is different than mine?

    How can my wife access all of our iTunes music, even if she subscribes to iTunes Match, if her Apple ID is different than mine?

    I do subscribe to iTunes Match.....and the music i am referring to is all of our downloaded albums and songs that are currently in iTunes and in the "cloud" on my iPhone and my iPad.
    So if she uses my Apple ID for her iPhone, she can sign up for iTunes Match on my account?  Will any of my apps then transfer to her phone?  Or just the iTunes "data"?

  • HT204406 I am out of space on my I phone becuse of iTunes.  If I sign up for iTunes Match should I delete all my iTunes music off my iPhone prior to signing up for iTunes Match?

    I am out of space on my iPhone 4S because of my iTunes Library.  I want to sign up for iTunes Match, but should I delete all my music off my iPhone prior to subscribing to iTimes Match?

    I got rid of a my stored music once I paid for iTunes Match. But beware you then need an Internet connection to pay music and even then a poor signal plays havoc. I sometimes wait five minutes for music to start and more often than not it stops playing and won't start again.

  • Since I signed up for iTunes match, I've got about 150 songs that I never bought, or want. Also, I am missing a bunch of songs that I used to have on my computer. What the heck happened?

    Since I signed up for iTunes match, I've got about 150 songs that I Never bought, or want. Also, I'm missing a bunch of songs that I had on my computer before iTunes match. What the heck happened?

    No, I'm the only one with access to my computer. I deleted all the unwanted songs and I hope they stay deleted. I found all my original songs in another folder. How they got there, I'll never know. It took a while, but I got all my songs back in the iTunes music library where they were before I got tangled up in this iTunes Match boondoggle. Apple has a ways to go before I'll mess with it again. By the way, you have to watch out for sisters.

  • ITunes Radio not working properly after signing up for iTunes Match

    I've been a user of iTunes Radio for some time now, and I've enjoyed it with minimal technical issues - until I signed up for iTunes Match. I'm not sure if it's simply coincidence, or if my subscription is causing issues.
    The problem is that when I click on a station, whether it be a Featured Station or one of My Stations, it acts like it will play, but the time bar never comes up below the song title. Instead of showing the status bar when a song is playing, indicating the time lapsed/remaining, it shows a solid blue bar all the way across with no time.
    I use Radio on my MacBook Pro (2009) and I also AirPlay my music to two Bose SoundTouch 20 speaker systems. I'm on the latest version of iTunes, my Bose systems are updated with the latest software, and I've never had an issue with this before. I can play songs I own or ones that I want to preview in the iTunes Store just fine through all of my speaker systems. What's interesting is that my NPR station in Radio works fine, though that one doesn't allow for AirPlay.
    I'm also having identical issues from my iPhone 5s. Though I can only play to one AirPlay device at a time from my iPhone, the symptoms are otherwise the same. Downloaded songs play fine; iTunes Radio freaks out and gives the "Station Temporarily Unavailable" message. Except it's not temporary, unless you consider two months of this irritation temporary...
    Here's what I've tried so far:
    Logging out of iTunes, restarting and logging back in.
    Resetting my Bose AirPlay speakers.
    Turning off the Bose SoundTouch App and Music Server App on my computer.
    Disconnecting my Bose AirPlay speakers from power altogether.
    Restarting computer and resetting iTunes Cache and Warnings.
    None of those attempts at fixing this issue has resolved anything. I'm at a bit of a loss for help here, and I really don't want to start uninstalling and reinstalling programs if it can be avoided. If there's a way to unsubscribe from iTunes Match, I'd want to try that first as that seemed to be when things started becoming non-responsive. If Apple provides a way to fix iTunes or the iTunes Match service without charging me a $29 support fee, I think that would be great, but I haven't seen one.
    Anyone encounter this before? Anyone at Apple listening? I'd greatly appreciate any help.

    Try it in Cellular as a quick test. Mi had lots of troubles and isolated the issue to Cox communications. May be an ISP issue.

  • I have an iPhone 4 on IOS5. I signed up for itunes match. After everything uploaded to the cloud, my songs are messed up. I'll select a song and the title will show with the right art work but a different song will start playing.  Anyone have a solution?

    I have an iPhone 4 on IOS5. I signed up for itunes match. After everything uploaded to the cloud, my songs are messed up. I'll select a song and the title will show with the right art work but a different song will start playing.  Some songs won't play at all even though they do appear in the itunes store. The artwork almost always shows u blank until you turn it to landscape then it will appear. Anyone know what's going on?

    I have found that scrolling through the album list (past albums without art) triggers the progress wheel next to the wifi symbol. You can scroll quickly through the whole collection and then wait! Artwork will appear gradually...
    However, repeat visits to the Music App might initially show no artwork again, but it might spontaneously appear more quickly this time. The bad news is that the whole Music App is now sluggish as ****...

  • HT4913 If I sign up for iTunes Match, and then turn the iTunes Match on my iPad, will my music library from the iPad that is not currently in iCloud move to the iCloud?

    I have a large music library on my iPad, that is not currently on iCloud or on my main PC. If I sign up for iTunes Match, and then turn the iTunes Match on my iPad, will the music library from the iPad that is not currently in iCloud move to the iCloud? Or will I loose all that music?

  • Itunes freezes on launch ever since signing up for iTunes Match

    Ever since I signed up for iTunes Match, iTunes on my Mac Mini freezes up right after launch... Help!

    Hi, I had a similar problem but in Windows.  The help page for that is at http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717 and although I've searched, I can't find the equivalent for a Mac mini. Anyway, I'm posting because what worked for me was to delete the 'local' and 'roaming' profiles.  They are re-created automatically and iTunes then works fine.  But, as soon as you try to sign in to the iTunes store - BANG. It freezes every time and you have to delete those profiles again.
    So I think this is a definite bug with iTunes that is linked to the sign-in process. Hence why it is affected by iTunes Match. I don't believe it's a memory issue; the problem is repeatable and no other applications are running. Do try running it without signing-in and see how you get on . . .
    Good luck.

  • If i sign up for itunes match with one apple id can i get the other apple id songs

    if i sign up for itunes match with one apple id can i get the other apple id songs

    I'm assuming you mean can you access the purchased songs from another apple id.  No you cannot.  You will need to download these on another computer and then transfer the hard files into your itunes library that you are using icloud with and let icloud match them.
    You cannot access two different id's from one match account.  Also, if you sign out of the match account that you are signed into to another to download purchases you will not be able to sign back into your match account for three months.  So do not do this either.  Just use a friends computer or another way.
