Match and iCloud storage limit

My iCloud account for the first time has sent me a message saying that my storage has reached it's limit; also advising that my iPhone can not be backed up any longer.  Is my service with iTunes Match affected by this status, meaning that Match also cannot take on any more files from my iTunes?

Hi Jimzgoldfinch:
I have two simple questions about iTunesMatch:  Can you check on how much it currently being stored in Match or do you just have to wait until they notified you that it's at the limit.  Also, whenever I get new music I put in my own label for genre - I also sometimes change the date to be to the original vinyl release instead of the "incorrect" CD date, though I never change the actual name of the song file.  Does changing this information make Match think of the file as a distinct file that they do not have and thus must be uploaded into my memory space or can Match determine a match even though I've changed some of the info on the file?

    "If you exceed your iCloud storage limit, photos and videos won't upload to iCloud, and your library will no longer stay up to date across your devices."  Really?  Can't we support the existing "last 1k photos will be available in the cloud" model?  If we don't do this, won't this kill auto-sync of new photos from iOS devices to our libraries on our Macs (if the Mac's Photos app has auto syncing with the cloud turned on) once we go over our 5gb limit?  I have 350GB of photos in my Mac Photos library - I am not going to pay $20/month for 1tb iCloud storage.  Please advise, Apple.  Thank you.

    I agree and am baffled by this also.  At first I was really excite about this new feature.  Mostly because I would be able to seamlessly sync videos along with my PhotoStream.  I just assumed there would be some systematic way to handle large libraries.  Like removing older files as the current PhotoStream does.  However, it appears that this new feature will simply 'shut down' when you reach your storage limit.  This just makes no sense to me.  I would have to double check, but I have all my photos and videos in iPhoto and stored on a 3 TB external hard drive and I think the full library is over 1 TB.  So, even if I was willing to pay $20 a month for photo syncing (which I am not) I couldn't do it because my library is too large.  Again I am just baffled why Apple cannot blend this new service with the existing PhotoSteam model.  My favorite aspect of PhotoSteam is that is uploads all my iPad and iPhone Photos to my Mac for permanent storage and it seems this is lost in the new version.

  • I have the IPhone, IPad and MacBook, IPad and IPhone share the same Apple ID and Icloud storage. Cannot make ID Change on MacBook as it says the ID is already taken. How can I make all three match?

    The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
    Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
    also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
    and the iTunes Match services.
    (I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
    If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
    iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
    and
    iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
    In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

  • What happens to my apps, iTunes card, and iCloud storage if I change my Apple ID?

    What happens to my apps, iTunes card, and iCloud storage if I change my Apple ID?

    Depends upon what you mean by change.
    If you update your existing account to have a new primary email address then you shouldn't lose any of the account's past purchases, balance, or iCloud storage - you may have to log out of the old version of your account by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in with the updated version, and similarly for iCloud (Settings > iCloud > Sign Out).
    If you create a new account then your existing account's purchases, balance and iCloud storage will remain tied to the existing account, you can't transfer them to a new account or merge the new account with the old one.

  • Am in Europe (UK) with iPad. Comput er(Mac) at home. Bandought videos and iCloud storage, but still can not download all the videos. How can I get them to store in the cloud and come out a gain to my iPad? Need something to watch at night,etc. tx

    Hi all. I. Bought videos from iTunes and also bought the lowest amount of extra iCloud storage. I assumed the videos could be stored in the  cloud and called back automatically to the iPad when I needed them. They won't all download, Apple hasn't answered my call for help via e mail, and I don't know what to do. I deleted stuff from the iPad and got rid of some of the videos I'm not watching (hoping to maybe download them again later on).
    I don't get how the Cloud works, and I don't really know which article to read for info. HELP?
    thanks,
    Isabella

    Not all video is available for redownload. 
    Purchasing more icloud storage has nothing to do with itunes purchases.
    Itunes purchases ( the ones that are made available for redownload) are automatically available in icloud.  you do not have to purchase any icould storage for this.
    You should not delete anything.  you should always have a backup copy.
    Movies are only available for redownload in the U.S:
    Learn more about which content types are supported for iTunes in the Cloud by country, as well as where iTunes Match is available.

  • I have i Tunes Match and ICloud but my Ipad 16G is almost full.

    I bought the I cloud storage it says total storage 15GB Available 14.5GB and when I take a video I run out of space on my ipad.
    How can I manage this so I have more space to take photos and video when needed?
    I believe my music takes up 80% of this space. and I assumed it goes to Itunes Match or Cloud that I purchased.

    Your iCloud storage does not affect the internal storage on the iPad. 16GBs is 16GBs and there is no way to increase it except by buying a new device. Have you subscribed to iTunes Match? If so, iTM does not use the iCloud storage.

  • Connect 2 iPhones with 2 different apple ids to the macbook for updates and backup through iTunes match and iCloud. How can i make that happen?

    We have a mac book pro and 2 i phones 4S. We both have different Apple Id's. But we would like to connect both phones to the mac book in order to update photos and itunes match. I subscribed with my apple id to itunes match and it automatically updates apps, music, books etc. However the apple id of my husbands phone is not recognized so his music, apps etc are not automatically updated. The same happens with icloud.
    How can we make the mac book recognize both phones?

    I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered

  • Itunes match and icloud

    Hi infortunetly like many people i have put all my eggs in one basket and am beholden to what ever Apple tells me what i can and cannot do with their products. When i bought the new iPhone 5 and updated I had a really hard time putting music into it through Itunes after an incredibly painfull amount of searching i realised i had to turn off match which now as we know I lose the ability to share my music through Icloud for all my respective devices. when I went to turn it (Match) back on after completing the import of hard copy music to my drive on my iPhone. Match and/or Icloud tells me it's going to remove my entire library is this true. I like to listen to my music all the time as many of us do. If i am at my cottage fairly remote No internet No cellular data service etc. how will i listen to my music if its in virtual world. does anybody understand what im trying to convey.

    Yes, it's completely confusing.
    Some people (and Apple) like things to work automatically in the way Apple thinks you want to use them but many of us would prefer more manual control and would like to mix syncing of audio with cloud services.
    I haven't updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 6 yet but from what I've read different recent OS versions have worked a little differently when it comes to iTunes Match and the cloud some offering more control over the content than others - I must admit to being thoroughly confused so hopefully someone will provide you with a definitive answer (for now).

  • ITunes Match and iCloud accounts are different.

    I bought my mom this iPad Air 2 for Christmas and I'm trying to get it so that she can have access to my iTunes Match account. I made the account on my AppleID so I can control the library for them. When I first set up her iPad, all her pictures and stuff were there. Then I changed the settings so that she could access the iTunes Match account, it still is using her AppleID for her iCloud but now it's my AppleID in the iTunes for the iTunes Match access and her pictures are no showing up anymore.
    I'm SURE there has to be a way for iTunes Match to use my ID for that and still load all her pictures from her AppleID from her phone... right?
    I should clarify, on my AppleID I don't have any apps, nor do I have an Apple product, I only signed up for an AppleID so that I could use it to get iTunes Match and control the playlists for them and everything. So she's logged in to her AppleID for iCloud and logged into my AppleID for the iTunes Match account. The pictures are all gone now though.

    It stays on your phone until you delete it.  If you download a song, album or artist, you can delete them by swiping across the title and tapping delete.  If you play a song without downloading it, it is stored in cache memory on your phone.  As you phone starts to reach full capacity, older and less frequently played songs begin to automatically be deleted from cache.  Or, to remove them all, occasionally go to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipe across All Music and tap Delete.

  • Aperture and iCloud storage

    Any idea how I can up,oad images from an Aperture library to iCloud storage? So far I've managed to get some photos to transfer by selecting jPegs and then dragging to the iCloud window. But, apart from being incredibly slow, all I get is a few (up to 20 out of 97) photos transferred. They aren't in any particular order (i.e. not consecutive and not starting with the first image in the set) and it's different images each time I try.
    THanks
    B

    You're welcome!
    It is not yet possible to store a photo library in iCloud. You can share photos (My Photo Steam or shared abums), but trying to put your aperture Library on iCloud Drive will damage it.
    iCloud Drib´ve is very different from other cloud storage and that may be confusing. It is not an external storage, and it is not a backup medium.
    See:  iCloud Drive FAQ
    It is meant as a central storage to keep all files updated across all devices. The recent problem with the iCloud servers may have contributed to your problem:   Apple - Support - System Status

  • Whats the difference in regular storage and icloud storage?

    Trying to download i0s 7my iphone 4 says not enough storage, go to manage storage.  I upped my icloud storage thinking, this would do the trick and increase reg storage.  Puzzled.

    What you call regular storage is storage that is in the device.  iCloud storage is on the network and not in the device.
    In order to download iOS 7, you need sufficent storage in the device.
    Storage on the network or iCloud storage will not work for that purpose.
    You might try do the upgrade to iOS 7 by connecting you iPhone to your computer then doing the upgrade from iTunes. By doing that storage on your computer will be used instead of on your iPhone. This will reduce the amount of storage needed.

  • OSx 10.10.3 Photos app and iCloud storage

    What does OSx 10.10.3 Photo app do if iCloud is enabled and photo library exceeds size if iCloud storage?

    thank you for the fat response
    actually on system preferences it says 52.8gb of photos and videos
    and on photos app 70.47gb
    when i go to photos app in finder and go to "show package" and then get info for  the folder "Masters" it says   55.45gb
    a bit weird but according to the thing you mentioned obviously the uploading process involved uploading specific  parts of my library and not the whole thing
