Adding iMatch to a computer

Now that I've been able to authorize this computer (thank you for the help!!!), how do I activate iMatch. I have already paid the subscription and it's on my desktop computer, iPad and iPhone. How do I get it added back to this computer? Everytime I click on iMatch in the Store, it takes me to the "get started" button, which I click on then it takes me back to the same page that only allows for iCloud information. The most frustrating set up I've ever encountered!!!!!

I know, but when I click on it, then click on "get started" it exits and goes back to the previous screen. It doesn't recognize that I have already purchased it and it doesn't give me the option to activate it on this computer.

I store my itunes library on an external drive shared between 2 computers and itunes on computer A isn't seeing or showing the songs I added using itunes on computer B. How to fix this?

I don't know if this is me adding files to iTunes when the external wasn't connected
it is.
is it OK to just keep deleting that library on the Air?
i wouldn't - at least not until i
mount the external
point iTunes media folder location back to the external via preferences > advanced
consolidate my library via file > library > organize library
The ntfs hasn't seem to be causing any problems, but I've always wanted to know.
in order for your Mac to write to NTFS drives, it needs some help by installing e.g. the NTFS 3G driver. apparently that or something similar is installed on your Mac already. preferably, it would be formatted for Mac but then windows machines would need to have e.g. MacDrive installed to recognize the drive.

My iTunes won't open. I recently added RAM to my computer. Other than that, nothing is different. Help!

When i connect my iphone to my imac, itunes opens but my itunes is not there. My wife has recently added herself to the computer
and her itunes appears but i cannot find my itunes?

Not really! Anyhow, what do you want to achieve. The only things you can access in your iPad outside of using iTunes are photos and videos. [Locate the iPad as any other external device through Windows Eplorer or Finder and dig through the folders.]
You are fortunate that iTunes opens when you connect the iPad since many other users have difficulty in achieving this. It is from there that you can manage what you want synced to the iPad.

How do I keep Microsoft from adding things to my computer. I have updates off, and recently they have put two new things on that I know of-bacause they caused a problem with my computer.

How do I keep Microsoft from adding things to my computer. I have automatic updates off (because one of their updates caused my computer to crash), but recently they placed an add-on for Firefox that required much time to remove, and they also added something else that caused Outlook to not work. I don't know what else they might have added that I know nothing about.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== The crash was a few years ago, the other two events were within the last couple of months.

In terms of the Firefox add-ons, see http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/.NET+Framework+Assistant
For MS installing things that are not part of Firefox, I think you're better off asking in a Windows forum.

More song in imatch then on computer

I been downloading music on to my computer and using the imatch. it has always been a even match of number of songs on my computer compared to the my imatch. All of sudden i have more song in my imatch then i do on my computer. Is there a way to determine where the extra songs came from

You need to import these songs into iTunes first and then configure them to sync to your iPod. See here for more information.

I need to be able to have music on my ipad mini that doesnt come from the cloud. I have turned off imatch on my computer and ipad and it still has the cloud symble on the ipad. I really just want imatch gone I have already unsubscribed

I want to get back to just having my music on my computer with none of the cloud problems. I have a limited amount of data download and imatch is killing it. How can get it off and restore iTunes to the way it was before so I can download songs to my devices?

you need to make sure itunes match is disabled in the two locations on your ipad. first is in settings>itunes & app store. the other is in settings>music. hope that works for you.

How do I download entire iMatch to new computer?

I dont want to download album by album. Thanks, Any help or info greatly appreciated.

Hello pakcrk,
tikibar1 is absolutely correct! Thanks for the assist. As stated, transferring pics from your device is super easy via the USB cable. May I ask, pakcrk, were you able to successfully transfer your pics? Archiving pics via computer is a great way to preserve those special moments. If you having issue in doing so then please share your concern so we can walk you through the process.
Thank you...

How to retain original song data (Date Added, etc.) after computer reformat.

Hello!
I recently had to reformat my computer, and I was able to copy all my music files and data to an external hard drive.
I currently have iTunes installed on my C drive (Windows 7) and all my music files are on a partition of my PC hard drive (P:). See image below.
What I like to do is to retain all the original song information (Date Added, Last Played, Play Count, etc.) from before I reformated, without all the songs having a Date Added of today's date and time.
I've tried to research this elsewhere on the Internet. A couple suggestions I've read pertain mostly to Macs but included the following:
~ Using the "iTunes Library.itl" file by choosing a library. Not sure how to do this method on the Windows version. (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3155068?start=0&tstart=0)
~ Changing the iTunes Media folder location (under Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced tab). I changed it to the folder above (P:\My Music\iTunes\) and clicked OK but nothing happens.
Any help or detailed instructions are appreciated. Thanks in advance!

OK, I partially solved the problem.
I primarily followed the steps under Re-creating the iTunes Library file on this page:
iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
I imported using the iTunes Music Library.xml file that I saved before reformating. This file had all the correct library information before I reformatted, including the Play Count, Play Date UIC, Rating, and Date Added data. Snipet here:
<dict>
          <key>Track ID</key><integer>20090</integer>
          <key>Name</key><string>Killer Queen</string>
          <key>Artist</key><string>Queen</string>
          <key>Composer</key><string>Freddie Mercury</string>
          <key>Album</key><string>Greatest Hits I</string>
          <key>Date Added</key><date>2011-02-27T21:44:06Z</date>
          <key>Play Count</key><integer>5</integer>
          <key>Play Date UTC</key><date>2011-04-14T05:11:12Z</date>
          <key>Rating</key><integer>80</integer>
</dict>
Upon importing, all the music and playlists are now in my library along with all the original data I had before (Last Played, Plays, Ratings)...
...EXCEPT for the Date Added column. All the songs in my library show the same date of 05/15/2012 under Date Added.
Is there a reason why the Date Added data is not carried over?
On a side note: my music hard drive partition before the reformat was "J:", now it is "P:". So, to make it work I made a quick find/replace to the iTunes Music Library.xml so that all "\J:\" now show "\P:\". If this makes a difference, let me know.
Thanks!

IMatch - iPhone to computer download?

My computer has crashed and the only backup I have is my iPhone. Can I use iMatch to download my cds/ratings/playlists back to my computer?

It's easier if you transfer music between computers using some portable storage device (big thumb drive, ext hard drive, big iPod), rather than your iPhone. But maybe this helps answer your question:
http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/copying-music-from-ipod-to-co mputer/
Also, you can google "transfer music from iphone to computer" and you'll find software that can be used to transfer music from iPhone to computer.

HT1349 Added a new (additional) computer to my home network. How do I get my current, existing iTunes library to appear on the new computer?

I just added a new computer (additional device) to my home network, then followed the steps to share the device. Can't see my iTunes music library. What did I do wrong?

If you had subscribed to iTunes Match, yes, everything in your iTunes Library that was a "match" can be downloaded again.

On my mac I have my downloads from i tunes. I have previously transferred thousands of songs onto an external hard drive. How do I show these songs and albums in my i tunes on my mac without adding them to the computer as there is insufficient space ?

PLEASE HELP ME. I transferred my music library onto an external hard drive as it contains about 30 000 songs. I got a second hard drive as extra security and loaded the songs onto that as well. Both hard drives now contain my music library however when I click onto my i tunes on my mac I am only seeing the music that I have downloaded from the i tunes store that has been kept in the cloud. How do I get my music from the hard drive to be recognized on my mac? Please, please, please help!!!

To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.
