Any way to create a smart playlist on iOS of songs that have been downloaded from the cloud?

Of my 72gb library it's hard to remember what has been downloaded from the cloud to my iPhone.  It would be great if there was a way to have my tracks be dumped into some sort of playlist to easily access what has been downloaded.  Anyone know of way to do this?  Or recommendations on an easier way to keep track of downloaded tracks?

These all work fine on my mac but again, I was wanting the smart playlist on my iphone.  I could download songs from the cloud on my mac (which wouldnt make sense anyways since it's where my entire library is) but this defeats the whole purpose of accessing my music through my phone and icloud and not having to sync or make playlists on my mac.
Let me ask you guys this, every time you want to listen to something on your iOS device, do you wait for it download?  Do you remember everyhting you've downloaded and only listen to those tracks?  What's your method for listening to music on your device?
Really dissapointed in Match....it's basically a back up service.

  • Is there any way to restore contacts that have been deleted from the icloud website?

    All my contacts were deleted from icloud - no intervention on my end -(I spent hours updating and eliminating duplicates after syncing from MS Outlook and don't look forward to that exercise again) thanks

    Thank you CS, I am using a MBP.
    What I am trying to say is that I still have my contacts in MS Outlook, but are outdated- many duplicates - wrong/incomplete addresses that took quite a while to get in shape and then put in the cloud.
    I still dont know how it was erased (sitting at work one minute no issue then at noon all was gone).
    I am trying to evade the hours needed to clean up my address book again. ( and I have definitely learned my lesson - alwasy keep a backup).

  • Is there a way to have tv shows that have been downloaded onto the Ipad to delete them off the Ipad but still have them in icloud and on the computer?

    I have downloaded tv shows onto my Ipad and I now want to move them off my Ipad. Is there a way to do that or not, once you transfer everything to a computer?

    They are not stored in iCloud, not really.
    If the are in the iTunes library on the computer, simply context the device to the computer and manage the content on the device via iTunes.

  • Is there a way to create a smart playlist that lists my top 25 plays from a specific time period (i.e. - top plays from the last 90 days)?

    Is it possible to create an itunes smart playlist that lists my top 25 most played songs in a specific time period (i.e. - the last 90 days)?  It seems that any "most played" list I create counts every spin a track has had in it's history of being in my library. 

    The challenge is is not to determine which of the tracks that have been played in the last X days has been played most since the beginning of time, but which have been played most in the last X days. iTunes can do the first one but it simply doesn't have the power to do the second.

    Dottie,
    If you want to upgrade the quality of a song in your library, you have to delete the library copy and download the matched copy.
    Once it is downloaded, it will stay in your library even you don't renew Match.

    Not unless the developer/Apple offer it again in the App store.  You can only get apps from the App store.

  • I have converted a number of songs to mp3 format on my iMac, is there a way to view just the songs that have been converted in iTunes?

    I have converted a number of songs to mp3 format on my iMac, is there a way to view just the songs that have been converted in iTunes?

    You can view tracks in a given format by selecting to show the Kind column. If you mean you want to determine which specific MP3 tracks you have that were converted by iTunes as opposed to being imported in MP3 format, Get Info on a track and look at the "encoded with" field.
    Regards.

  • I have 3 songs that will not download and the volume of error messages from Itunes about these "3" is annoying. I know my way around Itunes but cannot find a way to delete them and stop these Itunes download error messages.

    Thank you.

    Thanks Mohammad - much appreciated.
    I also got a response from Apple who said that there was a problem related to fonts and the encryption.xml file
    Once we'd removed this we were able to upload the epub no problem.
    It's odd that the system seems to say that all is okay when it isn't. We have to rely on guesswork rather a lot using iBook Producer.
    Anyway, all sorted now and thank you again for your contribution.
    Best wishes and a Happy New Year!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Is there any way to get a Smart PlayList to sort automatically

    I have a smart playlist that consists of Podcasts by certain Authors. I'd like to have it sorted by release date, so I listen to them in order, oldest first. Is there any way to get the smart playlist to sort that way automatically? Right now i can't really figure out how it is sorted, it seems somewhat random to me.
    Thank you. Tom

    yes, and it is actually quite easy. just make a smart playlist that is like this:
    First Field: Podcast is true
    Second Field: Name Contains (something present in the names of all of the podcasts you want)
    There will be a check box next to "Limit to...". check the box, and set the number absurdly high, and then change "selected by random" to selected by most recently added. create the playlist. after it is created, right click on the name, date, time, album, genre... bar, and select "Date Modified" once it is there, click on it and it will allow you to arrange them either ascending, or descending. that should do it.
