After the cloud and iTunes Match, Can I access all my music in airplane mode?
Seems like Apple hasn't been very clear about this. So now all my music is being stored in the cloud. That should allow me to free up space on my phone...but if I turn on airplane mode, what would be left on my phone if I delete my music locally? If I can't delete the music locally on my phone, what's the point of storing it in the cloud? just backup?
Of course the music in the cloud which has not been downloaded to your iDevice can't be accessed while airplane mode is active. However, all music that has been previously downloaded to your iDevice can be played.
iTunes Match is not designed to be a streaming service. When you listen to music it is downloaded to your iDevice.

Enter the Apple ID you want to use for iCloud in Control Panel > Network > Internet > iCloud.
Enter the Apple ID you want to use for store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match) in iTunes > iTunes Store.Welcome to the Apple community.
iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID. -
I used a usb turntable to import old vinyl records into iTunes. Then with the cloud and iTunes match I put them on another Mac. The songs come up in the music list but they are greyed out. How do I get them recognized. The symbol states the songs were downloaded from iCloud. I would like to get them to play so that I can make a playlist, and burn a CD.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device. -
I have icloud and itunes match and most of my songs have been uploaded to the cloud. Some songs still have the "waiting" icon next to them and when I turn itunes match on they neither upload nor are they determined ineligible. My computer will literally spin its wheels for hours trying to upload the same song. Additionally, I uploaded an audiobook disc on my computer and 3 of the 11 tracks are still waiting to be uploaded???
The exclamation mark happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .
If the missing files just can't be found then, assuming you are in region where you are permitted multiple downloads of your audio purchases, delete the current enties and download again from your purchased history.

I would like to upload my music library from my PC to the Cloud through iTunes Match. I also will be purchasing a Mac in the near future and would like to download some of that music from iCloud to my Mac. Will I have compatability problems?
You should have no problems. To add a second computer or device to iTunes Match, see:

I upgraded to the new IOS, but lost data and apps. When I try and restore the only backup I see is the one it made AFTER the lost data. How can I access an older backup from the cloud?
Why don't you talk to apple and find out if backup exists? That conversation with apple will stop your guessing.

Manually Changing song dynamics when in the cloud using iTunes Match
I would like to know if I am capable of changing the volume or adding an equalizer setting to a song that was uploaded to the cloud and is matched using iTunes Match? This song/album was initially ripped from a CD.
Hi,
What you will get is the Matched version. Any volume adjustment or equalisation setting will not apply. If track had been uploaded instead of matched, the track would be identical to the original.
If you downloaded the matched track to replace the original on your computer, you would have to redo the adjustments.

I just uploaded my iTunes library to the cloud using iTunes Match. When I buy a new song from iTunes, is it automatically sent to the Cloud or do I have to click on iTunes Match? I certainly don't want to start the whole upload process over again. Thanks
It should do so automatically, if not check it's staus this way.
In iTunes press "Command J" or select "View Options," under the view menu. In the popup window check iCloud Status. It will now appear as one of the columns in your main iTunes window.
This column will show which of your songs are matched, uploaded, ineligible, etc.
When you navigate to the song you downloaded you will see it's iCloud status.
If the status says, "waiting," and you want it available on Match now, then in the iTunes "Store," menubar pulldown, select "Update iTunes Match."
It will scan your drive, and update all status'.
You will not have to upload everything again.
Even if in iTunes you turn Match off, and back on again.
Match remembers you! -
my fiance and i share 1 icloud account on 2 iphones, after the ios 7 update he can now see all my text messages that I type on his phone, how can i fix this? I don't see any of his, just the other way around. The icloud account is in my name.
also, would this affect being able to facetime each other?
Thanks!!we do what your doing... we use the same ID for "Icloud".

Ok Apple users...Is there a way to delete e-mails on my Mac and not have to delete the same e-mails on my iPhone, and iPad...and vise-versa. I have the Cloud, and thought that everything would sync all of the time. If you know of a setting I need to adjust, please let me know.
Are you referring to @mac.com, @me.com or @icloud.com emails? Or some other email providers emails?
If the former, it should do that automatically. If the latter, no. iCloud does not (nor is it supposed to) sync non-Apple provided emails. -
ITunes Match is on but all my music is on iPhone?
Hi,
I've subscribed to iTunes Match, and successfully matched all my music. However, when I turn on iTunes Match on my iPhone, all my music is still on my phone. I've tried syncing my iPhone to iTunes a few times. However, when the sync is done each time, none of the songs on my phone have the iCloud icon next to them. The usage meter in iTunes for the iPhone shows it has all the music still on it. Finally, when I turn on Airplane Mode, I can still play any song on. Can someone tell me what step I've missed to get iTunes Match to work on my iPhone?
Thanks,
Jason MazzottaOn your phone, go to Settings -> Music. At the top, there should be a switch to turn iTunes Match on and off. Once you turn it on, it should give you a notice that doing so will erase all music on the device. Tell it that's fine, and then it'll activate it. To see everything you have, and not just what's on the phone, make sure to set the "Show All Music" switch to On once it appears.
If you're still having trouble, try hitting the Settings button in the top left and then go back into the Music settings and ensure the option took. I had to do this 3-4 times the first time I checked it after turning on iTunes Match. -

I have downloaded my new itunes how can i get all my music back
i have downloaded my new itunes how can i get all my music back
Itunes was deleted? Or your itunes library was deleted?
If it was just itunes, then your music should still be there. Just reinstall itunes.
Otherwise just use your backup copy of your comuter to put everything back.
