Can I use iTunes Match to add songs from another computer

Now that I have iTunes Match running on my home and work computers can I add songs to my library from either one. I often get (non-iTunes) music while I'm at work and want to put it on my iPhone right away, but since my phone is synced to my computer at home, The only way I've been able to do it is bring the files home, put it on that computer and then load on my iphone. Does iTunes match eleviate this? Is there another way to do it?

Yes, iTunes Match alleviates this situation.  As long as iTunes on both of your computers is using the same Apple ID, you can add songs to either one, and once they have uploaded to iCloud, they will be available on any of your iDevices AND in iTunes on the other computer.

    Can I use iTunes Match to transfer music from an iPhone4 to a new iPhone5s? I'm traveling without my laptop!
    - Music was purchased outside of iTunes store
    - On a vacation
    - iPhone 4 has all my music
    - No access to iTunes
    - Want to buy a new iPhone 5s on vacation but this is holding me back

    Honestly, I've never used iTunes Match.
    Keep in mind that iTunes Match is only for music, any other media content would not be affected.
    Also, pictures synced to the device from a computer will not be moved over unless the new device is restored from a backup on that computer.
    Personaly, unless the current iPhone was damaged or otherwise acting as if on it's last leg, I'd wait.  There may be better options in 3 months.

  • Can u use itunes match to sync iphone with new computer

    can you use itunesmatch to sync iphone music and pictures to new computer

    You can use iTunes Match to make your iTunes library available on another computer, to either play or download the music to it.  But iTunes Match doesn't have anything to do with pictures and other data, and it doesn't sync your iPhone with your computer.
    If you are changing computers and have previously syncing your phone with another computer, you should copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the music) from your old computer to your new one using one of the methods explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527.  That will allow you to sync your phone with your new computer just as you did with your old one.

  • HT4914 Can I use iTunes match if I am not sure whether there are any pirated songs in my library

    Can I use iTunes match if I am not sure whether there are any pirated songs in my library

    iTunes match should work for that. I am assuming your friend gave you some music from a flash drive, and yor not sure if he/sh pirided it or not, and this is understandible. this screen shot should help. I also sugest looking into google play, which is not as convienet as far as combining with iTunes, but is free I bleive.

  • HT204074 I have a family Apple ID for iTunes and Apps and then two iPhone 5s each which use a personal Apple ID for email and the family Apple ID for iTunes and Apps. Can I use iTunes Match?

    I have a family Apple ID associated with my iMac and iPad for iTunes and Apps and then two new iPhone 5s each which use a personal Apple ID for email and the family Apple ID for iTunes and Apps. Can I use iTunes Match on the iPhones given there are two Apple IDs "loaded" on the iPhone?

    From this Apple KB article: <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4914>. 
    You may use store credit to pay for your iTunes Match subscription however a valid payment method must still be on file at the time of sign up.
    So, yes, or a PayPal account.

    Can I use iTunes Match on my Sonos with my iPhone and iPad?

    I have Sonos. No, it won't use iTunes match. It will allow you to stream your itunes media, but only the files you have on a hard drive on your network.
    ETA: It does let you play other internet services such as Spotify though.

    iTunes match will only work from a computer in terms of uploading new content. You should be able to copy iTunes purchases back via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11). For content from other sources there are some third-party programs listed half-way down this page which might help you get your content back from your phone : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

    Without a computer you will not be able to do any managing of the music in the cloud. There is no way to edit any metadata on an iOS device.
    Also, iTunes Match is not a backup service and should not be relied up as such. With no computer you will not have any backups of your music.

  • HT4913 Can I use iTunes Match when I don't have internet connection?

    Can I use iTunes Match when I don't have internet connection?

    If you've downloaded the music that you want to be able to listen to when you don't have an internet connection - you won't be able to stream or download whilst offline.

    Not really, no. I suppose in theory, but there is no way to manage the library, or retrieve the match contents for back up or other purposes.

  • HT1391 Can I get to my purchased songs from another computer???

    Can I get to my purchased songs from another computer????

    As King Penguin alluded to earlier:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
    Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
    You can re-download your available previous purchases.
