2 Computers, 1 AID: iTunes Match not syncing all songs

I have the following computers/devices all using the same Apple ID for iTunes Match:
-MBP used at home and remotely
-iMac used at home
-iMac used at work
-2 iPhone 5s
-iPad
All devices are using iOS 7.2 and 10.8.5, iTunes version 11.1.1.
The problem I'm having is that when I import music (or, in this specific case, an audiobook file) into iTunes on my MBP from a CD, that file does not show up on my iMac at home. The file's iCloud status is listed as "uploaded," and the file shows up on every iOS device, and on my iMac at work. Just not on my iMac at home. Both the MBP and my home iMac frequently share a home network.
Thanks for your replies!

I just had a 1 hour talk with applecare about this.  I was esclated through several levels. 
They are not reporting an issue with the iTunes Match service but I can nolonger add a device to iTunes match and they have no idea why.
I still have an open ticket.  But no known resolution... So I am betting it is a server side issue that Apple is not reporting.
My iOS devices are not working (iPad 3 and iPhone 4) my Apple TV however is working fine.  But not showing any new songs I have added.

  • ITunes does not sync all songs to iPod

    Hi, I have the older iPod with the first color screen, 30gb. Now, for some reason upon syncing (multiple attempts), I'm only able to sync 3921 of 4,185 songs in my library on an external hard drive. All of my songs were imported from my CDs while some were bought at the iTunes store. I'm not sure why 264 songs won't import nor which songs they are.
    Is there a way to figure out why they won't import and which songs are "stuck" in iTunes?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    so i restore my ipod (30gb) to its original settings due to the fact that i had a lock code on there and couldnt remember what it was to unlock volume...so restored it and now all my songs arent syncing on it..

  • Itunes is not syncing all songs in playlists to iphone

    i have multiple playlists with 70+ songs in them, however after phone is synced, only between 15-22 songs are in the corresponding playlists on my iphone. just need to find out if anyone is having the same problem since updating to itunes 10.5, and how i would rectify it.

    The reason that (for me) smart playlists were (mostly/completely) empty on my iPod Touch 2nd Gen was that I had specified in the smart playlist criteria that the files were MP3s but then when I synced the iPod I had the songs convert to the 128 kbps AAC, which means they no longer fit the rules.
    Check if you are doing something similar.

  • Not syncing all songs on playlists. Hmm. What's wrong.

    iTunes is not syncing all songs on my playlists with my devices. No changes have been made recently. The PC is a 5 year old Dell, with Itunes on it the whole time. It has the latest itunes version. My devices are a 160 gig Classic, and 2 iPhone 4's. All devices have the latest ios. I synced yesterday like i have hundreds of times before, and each playlist is missing 1 or two songs. Yes, they are all checked in itunes. I've tried both "sync all songs in library", and "sync select playlists". Same Result. Any guesses?

    I am having this issue also.  Not a problem when I had the iPhone 4, but now that I have the 4s, I have missing songs from playlists.  The songs are there on my phone - I can play them, but they won't show up on my playlist.  I can manually add them to the playlist, but they won't "stick".  I can play the songs fine on my PC in iTunes fine also.  Seems like it only applies to songs that were actually purchased from iTunes (iCloud available).
    I tried removing all music from the phone (de-syncing with iTunes) and then doing a fresh sync - no dice.
    I don't want to go through a full new set up of my phone (again) - just for this issue, with no guarantee of success.  How do we escalate this to Apple?  Do they review these posts?

  • ITunes Match not syncing album by year in Music app

    I have been cleaning up my iTunes library, on my MBP. While importing some new songs and editing some old ones, the albums are sorting correctly by year in iTunes, but not in the Music app in iOS. I edited the year info for all the tracks in the album, but the year in the Music app says the old year, which means the albums are out of chronological order. I use iTunes Match to sync. Where is the old year hiding?

    Well, after a weekend of complete disaster and nightmares for iTunes Match, everything is back to normal except one major flaw that's really annoying me.
    On friday no other tracks but the matched ones would stream on either my Apple TV or my secondary computer. They wouldn't download if I wanted them to on this secondary computer. Music videos included.
    Later last evening every track on iCloud started working properly again. Except music videos. They'd not download on my secondary computer. They wouldn't stream on my Apple TV. I did some tests and out of 208 music videos currently compatible with iCloud (because they were purchased with the same account) only 3 actually stream and download. So either this is part of the temporary breakdown iTunes Match has been suffering, or because of it my music videos are corrupted.
    I've contacted Customer Support 4 times to no avail so far regarding a response. Either I can play/download my music videos again or one of the main features for me of iTunes Match on my Apple TV is absolutely broken and useless.
    Apple really needs to address this and solve my problem. Otherwise iTunes Match is only partially working. What would the use of buying music videos at the iTunes Store would be for me from now on???

  • ITunes Match not loading all music to iPhone 5s

    iTunes is not loading all of my music to my iPhone 5s. It was working fine before, now it doesn't seem to load any new music I put into my iTunes. I have tried to update iTunes Match several times and it still doesn't work. I have authorized my computer already.

    Interestingly I just checked my phone and all my playlists have been loaded up..go figure...

  • My iphone 4s ios 7.0.2 had songs.I had put the songs through itunes. Now when i wanted to put more songs in my iphone through itunes, i pressed sync all songs and then itunes said that all songs are in my iphone now. But in my iphone it shows no songs.why

    I have an iphone 4s ios 7.0.2. Before updating to the latest ios i had songs in my iphone. after updating also it was there, but when i wanted to put more songs through itunes in my iphone , i synced with itunes first with my iphone. Then i pressed sync all songs and then itunes said that all songs had been synced. But in my iphone it showed me that there is no songs at all and i have to download it from itunes store. The songs which i had also went from my iphone. I dont know what happened. I updated my itunes to the latest one 11.1.1. But still no change . Can anyone tell me what is the problem. What to do?

    Hello babichanjacob
    Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.

  • ITunes Match not syncing with iOS 8.1

    Hello,
    It appears tome that iOS8.1 has introduced a new issue with iTunes Match.
    If you enable it on the iPhone it will sync properly the first time but after that it will stop syncing.
    If I add any new songs, edit songs or albums infos, perform any action, I won't see any of this in my iPhone with iOS 8.1
    I even don't have lyrics for songs, which I had with 8.0.2
    Do any of you experience the same issue?

    I've had this issue since iOS 8. From what I can tell, this issue is isolated to iOS 8; not an iTunes issue or a specific iOS device issue.
    Here's my evidence to support that:
    1. I have never, ever had this issue with iTunes Match, and I've used the service since it was introduced. The issue started when I first updated to iOS 8 on my iPhone 5.
    2. I then purchased an iPhone 6 Plus. Issue persists
    3. I then decided to switch out my 6 Plus for a 6. Issue persists.
    4. Here's the kicker: I kept my 3rd generation iPad on iOS 7.1.2. If I add music to iTunes Match, it immediately appears on my iPad.
    I've tried several workarounds in an attempt to fix it: Airplane Mode toggle, reboot, restore/setup as new.
    I've only found one solution, and it works every time. Turn off iTunes Match on my iPhone, turn it back on, and voila, my newly added music will appear. Very inconvenient though, as this process deletes any of the songs I previously downloaded to my iPhone via iTunes Match.

  • ITunes Match not syncing after changing stores.

    i have noticed this before. i have accounts in 2 different countries. if i go to the other store for an app on my iPhone or iPad, my iTunes Match no longer syncs. now i am reading in other posts that you can only change stores every 90 days??? is there no way around that? 3 months is a bit long not to have any music on my portable devices.

    ok, sorry, i figured it out. when switching stores, it evidently turns off the iTunes Match option in your settings on that device. you must go to settings/music and turn the iTunes Match option on again.

  • ITunes match not syncing normal playlists correctly

    I have iTunes match enabled on my computer and on my iOS device. I made a playlist that consists of 195 songs on my computer. I opened Music on my phone, and I see the playlist there with all 195 songs no problem. I open iTunes on my computer and delete a few songs down to 128. My iOS device still shows 195 songs.. I restart iTunes and my iOS device and iTunes still shows 128 songs, and my iOS device shows 195. I hit update iTunes Match on iTunes on my computer and all those songs I deleted are back and it is showing 195 songs on the computer now too. How do I update my playlist using iTunes Match? Is the service this buggy/unreliable?
    I also noticed I have reset my play count on iTunes on the computer and it is all back too. It is like any changes on iTunes on the computer are not updating to iTunes Match.

    I am also having problems with smart playlists on OS7 iphone 4s with mountain Lion on my mac
    I have two smart playlists, one for music not played in 6 months, the other for zero plays, the other criteria for the lists are media type 'music' and track time ' less than 15 minutes.
    These two playlists have 619 items and 108 items respectively in my mac but on the phone it shows 2962 items (for both lists) and a cloud symbol next to the track - although scrolling down, there are some tracks that do not have the cloud symbol - these look like the original 619 and 108 in the lists
    Other smart playlists are fine and appear to be not affected

  • I recently updated to Itunes 12.0.1.  Since then, the Music tab under my Ipod Touch does not give me the option to automatically use ITunes Match to sync all my music.  Now my Ipod memory is full, which is creating a problem.  How do I fix this?

    I recently updated to Itunes 12.0.1.  Now, when I plug in my Ipod and go to the Music section, the Itunes Match option is unavailable.  Which means that my music is taking up too much memory on my Ipod Touch.  How do I re-enable the IMatch option so that my music will automatically be in the cloud?

    Hello pib1617,
    iTunes Match can be enabled on your iPod Touch via Settings -> iTunes & App Store.
    Turn on iTunes Match. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Sign in if you haven’t already.

    Hi,
    What is the iCloud status of these tracks?
    You can add icloud status column to song view - go to menu > view> view options and tick box. This will tell you what has been Matched, Uploaded, Purchased, Inelligible, Duplicate or Waiting.

  • Itunes match not uploading any songs just stuck on "uploading 1 of 1432" for teh last two days , any help ??

    I purchased Itune match it matched about 9432 songs and the remaining 1432 it did not got to step 3 of uploading and its been 3 days just keeps saying uploading 1 of 1432 . i have restarted itunes , tried on different ISPs etc no luck what gives , on top of that on my iphone since i turned on match my play lists dont show up . when i try to synch with match off still my play lists do not show up ?

    Don't know what fantasy planet bigAl_25 lives on.  It does not work consistently for anyone that has a substantial library period.  If your lucky, you get 6 songs before it freezes up.  Know countless people that have it.  Don't know a single person that it works for consistently (on an Iphone) who has a substantial library.  I have to run with my Nano because it doesn't work.  I have had Apple products since 1984, I know how to trouble shoot issues. There is no current solution.  Like other posters, I have tried every single possible fix, including all of those recommended here.  It's just not ready for prime time.  Until it is, it will continue to be be hit and miss, with the only temporary fixes being to go back to menu, select different mix, or playlist.  If that doesn't work, quit app.  If that doesn't work, restart the phone.  One of these will probably solve your problem, but again only temporarily for about 6 songs, and the cycle repeats itself.  You do get a little bit better results over WiFi and if you download all the songs to the iphone before you roll the playlist, but again inconsistent at best.  Best idea, worst implementation.  I'm sure Apple will eventually fix it.  Until then it is hit and miss.  I don't care about the $25 (but won't renew if not working when my year is up), just want it to work. GET WITH IT APPLE.  Match is a home run, devote more resources to getting the bugs out.

  • ITunes is not syncing all my pictures on my iPhone

    I have iOS5 and iPhone 4s. Itunes is up to date too. I have about 2,000 pictures on my external hard drive that I am trying to sync on my iPhone. I have a 64GB phone. Only 900 of my pictures are uploading. I can view all my pictures just fine on my windows computer. Before the new phone and software update I never had any problems. What is going on? Is there anybody else having this issue?
    Should I reset my phone?

    Re: iTunes 10.1 is not syncing my Photos correctly to my iPad or iPhone 
    Nov 24, 2010 10:48 AM (in response to burdell1)
    OK. Here's the fix. Haven't had any problems since I tried the following: 1. Use the temporary fix of deleting the com.apple.Aperture file.
    2. Now re-start Aperture while holding Command + Option and select 're-build database'
    3. Quit Aperture
    4. Note that the progress indicator "Updating Previews for Sharing" appears before Aperture closes
    5. Load Aperture
    6. Load iTunes and connect iPad or iPhone (check for accurate library structure from Aperture)
    7. Sync iPad or iPhone
    8. Create a new folder in your Aperture library.
    9. Move a couple of Albums to the new folder
    10. Go to iTunes and click on the 'Photos' tab of the device sync options
    11. Changes to Aperture library should update properly Let me know if this works for everyone else. I'm pretty sure it will. Seems that my library was corrupt, but rebuilding the library won't help unless the database (com.apple.Aperture) is deleted first. 

  • My iTunes is not syncing all my music to my iphone despite goin throuh the motions and saying its syncing

    It starts out normal as if it's syncing properly and then reverts back. Stating its complete however half of my music is not synced and it says I have all the space available

    I had similar problem.  Found an answer and it worked fine.  First, connect your 4s to your Mac and iTunes.  Go to device, music and deselect Sync Music at very top.  Then, go to Summary and Sync the 4s.  Note that when finished all your music will be gone off the 4s.  disconnect the iPhone from the computer and do a Hard Shutdown or reboot/reset.  You do this by:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
    Reconnect to the computer and iTunes.  Go to device, music, and check Sync Music.  Then select Sync on the summary page.  When finished all my songs and playlists were back on the iPhone the way they should be.  Good luck.
