ITunes Match and Time Outs

Why does iTunes Match time out so much. It seems like I have to put in my password word in every 15mins. Does anybody have a way to stop having it time out. Thanks!

It is the way you configure your pay elements.

  • Waiting for apple to deliver your itunes match results - time out -uk

    Hi,
    Help me please
    I seem to be stuck in a loop that after the gathering of information has finished, the info is sent to apple and then I get 'waiting for apple to deliver your itunes match results' after about 30 or so seconds I then get an error message
    'we could not complete your request, the network timed out, blah blah blah make sure network connection is active'  no error code.
    I am a windows 7 user, I have comodo fire wall, nod32 and sky broadband.
    I have forwarded the ports 80 and 443, i have turned off comodo and disabled nod32, uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled itunes and I am still no further forward.
    My internet connection is fine, i can access and download from the itunes store so there should be no issues, genius is on and working and getting results from apple so what is wrong with match?
    Thanks
    Marc

    Marcus_30,
    thanks, unfortunately tried almost all of that already...
    You must be able to disable the firewall, even just temporarily.
    Did that already, no change
    Plug directly into the router and have nothing else running.
    no change either if connected via Wifi or cable
    I take it that you can connect to the store ok?
    yes, iTunes store is working fine - even can download at the same time I am getting the network timeout error
    Have you been through the re-installing iTunes motions?
    this will be my next step - had hoped to avoid that...

  • ITunes match and time machine

    I just got iTunes match... Will time machine automatically keep on backing up all my iTunes library too?
    Thanks!

    If you have been backing up on Timemachine.
    All you need to do is enter time machine... Then the rest is obvious.
    Find the iTunes folder and hit 'Restor'.
    If not the only way to get all your iTunes music back is to enter iTunes Store.
    On the right hand side you should see 'Purchased'.
    Click 'purchased' and there you have it.

  • ITunes Match and Genius options all greyed (grayed) out under 'Store' menu

    I'm using iTunes 10.5.2.11 and have signed up for iTunes Match. - for the last couple of weeks it's been 'working' in so much as it has already scanned my Library and matched/uploaded just under 5000 tunes. I can see these on iPhone/iPad/Apple TV.  I can't say more than that as generally I don't think Match 'works' very well at all, but that's another story!
    However....for the last 2 days I can no longer get iTunes to match any recently added content. I've added around 20 CDs and it starts the scan process, but just sits there with the progress bar at around 95% complete with the message "Matching your music with songs in the iTunes store..." The iCloud status of all songs in the library is 'waiting'. They're pretty mainstream titles, so I can't see a problem matching them.
    When I look at the main iTunes manu under the 'Store' dropdown, the items Turn off iTunes Match, Update iTunes Match, and Update Genius are all greyed out and there's nothing I can do.
    I'm signed in with my normal account, have tried logging out/in and restarting my computer and iTunes but nothing seems to change.
    Any ideas???

    I'm using iTunes 10.5.2.11 and have signed up for iTunes Match.  I am having the same issue.  After letting it go all night I am stuck on the "matching your music with songs in the iTunes store" step with 1086 of 1110 songs checked.
    Also, this is my situation exactly: "I should have added, the 'problem albums' and some of the artwork (hit and miss as usual) are visible on all my portable devices with all the track listings, but are all greyed out and have no 'cloud' icon next to them. Obviously they won't play"
    Dont see why it should matter, but unlike others here, I do have a lot of non-generic music, album riips, etc.  And I have a lot of my own vinyl artwork scanned myself.
    What to do ...?

  • Im subcribed to itunes match and when i signed out of it then signed in again,its telling me i need to puchase a subcription again when i already did 2 months ago..

    today i turned on my pc and opened itunes to listen to music.then i saw a letter displaying on the icloud bar..it looked like a 'z' letter..not sure.so then i was told to sign out of itunes match and re-sign in..i did that hoping it would resolve the problem and now its telling me that i need to subcribe to it again..i had tons of music stored in my icloud that i got from cd's..what do i do?

    Thanks Michael for your quick response.  However, the following still exists:
    1)  I created a playlist in my iTunes entitled "Holiday Music".  I have waited for days and it has never appeared on my iPhone.  I even tried to sync it with USB and although it showed up under "On my Phone", it did not show up on my iPhone.  I still can't find it anywhere on my iPhone.
    2)  Yes I hit "shuffle".  However, after reading your response above, I tried not hitting shuffle and the bluetooth in my car when haywire.  It scanned through my music and stopped whenever it wanted to.  Plus, when  I got in the car, I went to my playlist and checked "download all".  I had to wait about 15 minutes before the playlist began playing.  When it did, the first song played a couple of seconds and then waited a couple of seconds, and then did the same throughout the entire song.  I figured it was because it was still downloading.  I can't have this.  It causes me anxiety because it bypasses songs I would like to hear.
    3)  As far as getting all the songs that my daughter and I buy, I will check out your recommendations above.
    Thanks for your help on these issues.  It is greatly appreciated.  I will try anything to get this thing to work before

    do not confuse moving your whole folder and library with moving just media files as in
    iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449
    Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
    The fun will come when trying to keep them synchronized with each other.  Maybe one of these commercial utilities:

  • I am using iTunes Match, and wish to restore from the cloud to itunes. Why do I have to select one at a time to download?

    I am using iTunes Match, and had to restore all of my music (.3000 songs). Problem is, I don't see where can restore them all at once. I can do it for all purchased items from the Cloud, but not for songs/content that I added on my own from CD's. I have had to click the cloud icon for each song....really, my hand is about to cramp. Is there a restore all function for non-purchased songs? If not, it needs to be added to the Match software.
    Thanks

    Instead of steaming you can just download directly from the cloud.  Don't you see the cloud icon with a downward arrow? You may have already downloaded then then. Turn off iTM and see if the songs are still present.

  • ITunes Match and playlists broken in iOS 8

    Since updating to iOS 8 I can no longer add songs to playlists from my phone (I have iTunes match).  When attempting to add a song sometimes it gets stuck in the add screen and does not show a "done" button to press or if I add one, it just doesn't add it to the playlist.  I can however add songs to the playlist from my mac and it will show up on my phone like normal, just unable to add from my phone.
    Other iTunes or music app issues are songs not showing up where they should.  I had a song that downloaded from a pre-order, I changed the genre to one of the main genre's I use (like normal), added it to a playlist, and now that the entire album has become available and has downloaded the first track is not able to be found through either genre (either original or my own altered genre) or artist although it still shows up on the playlist.
    One more thing about adding songs to a playlist on iOS.  I was glad to see that one of the buttons on the bottom (in the add screen) is playlists now as an option to add a song but if you edit the buttons on the bottom and move genre down there, it doesn't stay put.  It's back on the "more" screen each time.
    Here's a suggestion to any apple folks if they're reading this, besides fixing the things above, how about from the song playing screen when you press the + button that an option is to "add to playlist".  When you click on that it brings you to your playlist view to select a playlist.  It's a pain in the butt when say you're listening to a song on shuffle, want to add said song to a playlist so you have to back out of the song playing screen, find the playlist (for which I have multiple layers due to playlist folders) click the add button, find the song (after you move genre to the bottom again) then click on the plus sign, hit done, make sure it took it, back out of the playlist view to get back to Now Playing.  For people like me who take advantage of iTunes Match and have a lot of music in their libaray, Genre and playlists are the easiest and quickest ways to find what I want to listen to and at times it's not very efficient.
    Thanks for your considerations and eventual fixes.

    iTunes Match has this problem with almost every iPhone software update. It's unfortunate that they cannot track down the issue. Hopefully this is not indicative of Apple's expertise when it comes to all cloud services. Music, photos and personal data are things that are important to all of us and we spend many hours on custom playlists, personal photo albums and are putting our trust that the work won't just disappear. iCloud drive is another promised feature and it's becoming tougher to trust a new free service when long-standing issues on a paid service cannot be fixed. I want to remain optimistic but so far, iTunes Match is not helping.
    On a positive note, the playlists on my Apple TV matches perfectly with my iMac and was working well on my iPhone 5S. The update to iOS 8 on the 5S did NOT cause the playlists to go out of order. I have only seen this issue on new iPhone 6's and iOS 8. Also, moving playlists in and out of folders in iTunes on a Mac seems to be a temporary fix that only lasts as long as you are logged in – Signing out of iTunes Match on iOS and signing back in brings back the problem… which *****.

  • ITunes Match and iPod Classic sync problems

    Hi all,
    I've recently signed up to iTunes Match and use iTunes on my Windows PC (at home) and MacBook Pro (at work). I also use an iPod Classic which I sync with the Windows PC.
    I've had an issue which has happened a few times when I sync. I think the problem occurs when iTunes is open on both the PC and the Mac, but I'm not sure.
    When I sync my iPod, it increments play count, and updates the recently played playlist as normal, but every now and then, I am asked to sign back into iTunes Match, and when I do that, all play counts from the ipod sync disappear. The Recently Played playlist also no longer has songs played on the iPod included. However, on the "last played" field, the correct date and time of when the song was played in populated.
    The iPod is where I listen to music most often, and I would really like to keep the play counts up to date, but I can't figure out what is happening.
    Has anyone seen this before? Any ideas if I can resolve this?
    Thanks.

    The same thing happened to my iPod. It shows that it has no songs, but when i checked the iPod's memory, it was using the same amount of space as before (i had 52 gb of music, now it's just 52 gb of... nothing).

  • HT204406 Does anyone else have to "Turn Off iTunes Match" and "Turn On iTunes Match" for it to become available and working on a second computer??

    Everyday I get to work and open iTunes. Everyday the iTunes Match logo next to my library is constantly working and never stops. The only way I can have access to my iTunes Match library is to "Turn Off iTunes Match" and "Turn On iTunes Match" immediatly after. It checks libraries and then everything is available.
    Is there a reason and a way to have my iTunes Match to work as soon as I open iTunes?
    The requirements are met:
    iTunes: 10.6.3 (25)
    OS X: 10.6.8
    Thanks
    Marc

    Thanks for the tip, unfortunately that did not work for me.  I turned off match and let it sit for over 3 hours and music never disappeared.  I made sure to turn off auto-lock so the iPhone/iPad didn't go to sleep and neither device ever cleared out the music so I just restored from iCloud backup.
    Now the other thing thats strange is I still have autolock turned off and both devices are sitting on the music app and on my iPhone I have the cloud icon going with the status bar and took 3 hours to get it complete the first time and then someone called me and foolishly answered the phone and then it started all over again.  On my iPad I don't see the cloud icon but i have the spinning wheel going in the corner for almost 24 straight hours now.  I have all my music/artwork back but none of my playlists so I am going to let both these devices sit until the spinning circle stops. 
    I do have a large library of just under 25,000 songs so maybe thats why its taking so long but I haven't had this issue before iOS 5.1 and iTunes 10.6.

  • ITunes match and local library file removal?

    Hey guys,
    So I'm slowly running out of space on my 128gb SSD in my MBP and I have to get rid of some music files to free up space:
    I've subscribed to iTunes Match and all of my music files have been synced to iCloud. Now I was wondering, can I delete my audio files locally - will they still be made available on the cloud? Has anyone done this before - have you encountered any problems?
    I do have a backup of all my local audio files.
    Any help is appreciated,
    Thom.

    iTunes Match does not provide ID3 tags from the iTunes Store, so any tracks that do not have ID3 tags now will still not have ID3 tags after they are scanned and mirrored in the cloud.
    If a track cannot be "matched" then it is "uploaded." To tell the difference enable the iCloud Status column in the iTunes browser by swtching to Song view and pulling down View > View Options and selecting "iCloud Status" then closing the small window.
    You may delete any tracks you choose from the library and the cloud at any time.
