Do I need to keep my Mac running while using iTunes match on iOS devices?
I'm considering subscribing to iTunes Match. Currently all my music is stored on a Macbook. Suppose I upload/match this music with iTunes Match. Can I then listen to the music on my iPhone/iPad even while the Macbook is off or do I need to keep the Macbook running (and connected to the Internet) while I'm listening to music?
Yes once the music is on a device (iPad, Iphone, iPod) you don't need to have your Mac running to listen to music. This is true if you do Match or just sync with iTunes. Once the music is on the IOS device or on the iCloud (so it can be downloaded) you do not have to keep your MAC up and connected to the Internet.

Why does my music keep getting deleted from my iphone while using itunes match?
Ever since i started itunes match, gradually my local music on my iphone has been removing itself to be replaced with the icloud symbol. All the music is still there but it's removed locally. Today all my music was suddenly removed requiring me to re-add all my music by clicking every icloud symbol individually and it is driving me absolutely mad! What am I doing wrong?!
Does the same thing happen if you use another set of headphones?
If it does, there might be something in the headphone jack like lint, dirt, or something else. You might be able to get it out by connecting the headphones 5-10x or spraying compressed air into the jack.
If it doesn't you might need to get those headphones replaced. -
Hi Guys 'n' Gals!
I have a problem with my computer not going into 'Display Sleep' mode but actually goes into full Computer Sleep mode. Anyone know how to keep my Mac running software and not go into full sleep after I have set it to 'Never' go into 'Computer Sleep' within the 'energy saving' section!
Any ideas guys?

Need to keep Premiere Pro open while Encore transcoding?
So I used the Dynamic Link function to export my project from Premiere Pro CS5 to Encore and started building a Blu Ray disc. Do I need to keep Premiere Pro open while Encore is transcoding?
Task Manager says Premiere is still using 20-40% CPU so I am scared to close it . . .I agree that you can close premiere, but I'd close it before starting the transcode or build. (Call it superstition.) But if you close it (or even not), adobe with run pproheadless (the premiere end of a dynamic link).
Are you using ame to transcode for Encore? (A setting as of CS5.) Curious. -

When I try to access my music library from AppleTV is keeps telling me to turn on ITunes Match. I am not supposed to need iTunes Match for Home Sharing. I tripled checked to ensure Home Sharing is turned on and it is. Can anyone offer a solution?
All of your computers content are available in the AppleTV section called "Computer". This is where you will find your music.
The Music section of the AppleTV is only for those who subscribed to iTunes Match. -
How do you keep a VI running while waiting for user input?
I have a VI that:
1. The user enters set points.
2. The user starts the VI and the VI sends the set points to an external process via a serial interface.
3. The VI stops running.
4 The user waits for the external process to complete.
5. Repeat sequence. Go to Step 1.
This works well except for one small problem. Starting the VI in step 2 causes an external micro controller to reset. During the reset it will ignore set point commands. To get around this problem a delay has been added between when the VI opens the serial port and when the VI sends the set points to the external process Is it possible to keep a VI running continuously in this type of application, thereby eliminating the start up and shut down of the serial interface?
If yes, how do you keep a VI running while waiting for user input?
HowardThe ones for the event structure specifically. I'm posting from my phone. Look at the basic ones for user input. even a simple while loop with a boolean and a case statement would work.

I reecntly spold my mac book air,to a friend, when he tries to use itunes match it says the computer is registersed to another user and cannot be done for another 40+ days. How do i get that to turn off. I have unregistered it under my account.
thanks sYou either have an incredibly complex computer setup or I think you are confusing terminology here. If you have iTunes set to share your library with others in your iTunes preferences then other computers in the area will see it as an item when they are running their iTunes and have it set to check for shared libraries. Your husband is probably seeing this when running iTunes on his computer. You can disable this sharing on your computer and/or he can set his not to pick up shared libraries.
By the way, an iTunes account is something you log into when you want to buy something from Apple. On your computer it is simply your iTunes collection or your iTunes application. So you need to turn off sharing in your iTunes application preferences.
Your husband is seeing "his" iTunes collection when running iTunes, but it is possible he doesn't have anything in it if it is a brand new computer. -
I've twice tried to use iTunes match. It stalls in step 2. I've rebooted my iMac computer and it still stalls. Apple's taken the $25 but not delivered the service. Can I get some personal help? There are 12,733 songs, a few dozen of which are not going to be in the Apple music library because they are unique to my collection. Also, some titled "Track XX" and no artist. I assume these would either not upload or else just be uploaded. But, after an overnight of step 2, the iTunes match program was still on song number 7384 or 12733 (it was on that number for over 12 hours). Looking in the music library, activating the iCloud icon and status fields, there were hundreds of songs with the status "waiting."

Kernel panics:
After taking my late 2009 15 inch macbook pro to the apple store, the genius completely erased my computer and reinstalled the Mac OS X software, but the problem still persists.
I also took it to my college tech support center, they tried to take the ram out and reinsert it and clean up the dust, but the problem still remains.
I am able to use my computer in Safeboot mode (only)
Well it could still be a software problem if you installed a third party program after the OS X wipe and install, because by booting into Safe Mode it disables certain functions of OS X and hardware. Check for updates or problems for all your third party software, include everything, including menulets, System Preference panes, hacks and so forth.
If you restored any sort of software from backup like TimeMachine, it likely was corrupted data and now is returned.
If the college tech support found a lot of dust clogging the rear exhaust vents behind the fans, then likely the heat damage done to the machine has already occured and can't be reversed. Video cards are usually first to go, which Safe Mode does disable the video card somewhat.
Run through this list of fixes, it's systematic in nature, also has a Hardware Test to see what's going on

Too bad this is occurring to a mere 4 year old machine, but dust will do that. Here is the culprit that Apple doesn't tell anyone about. -
ppl i fed up with my mac air while using my exchange email account, it takes ages to refresh and it doesn't send or receive instantly , no clue although that the same setting and server names has been set up on my iPhone and it is working totally fine
Install ClamXav and run a scan with that. It should pick up any trojans.

Duplicates. I use iTunes match. Two questions:
When I run exact duplicates on the library on my Mac Air, I get duplicates that say uploaded for one and uploaded with a cloud for the other. Which one do I delete?
Some of the duplicates say matched and matched with a cloud. Same question - which one should I delete?I'm not sure I understand the question.
First I would update your iTunes match. iTunes match will tell you what is duplicates and then you can just delete them from the library.
Second, the course in a situation like this is to delete ONE duplicate and see what happens. Make sure you have that song backed up somewhere just incase it deletes it completely. But usually I'd delete one and then see if it deletes both or just the one you pressed.
Thirdly, update iTunes match. It usually does a good job of locating actual duplicates. -
How do i keep my apple lossless files when I use iTunes match?
When I started using iTunes Match, my Apple Lossless and aiff lossless files were converted to lower quality 256 files in iTunes on my mac. How do I stop this from happening? I want to keep the Lossless files as they are.
Thanks
BudSorry ...... but .....
Would it make a difference when I used iMatch .... I started the service the day it was made available. Was it an original issue and has since been corrected?
-iTunes and the music files were on my iMac internal Hard Drive. Only 1 iTunes Library.
-No alternate iTunes libraries were created ergo match not turned on to an alterante.
-The original files were added to the iTunes Library from an external hard drive ... which were copied to my internal hard drive by iTunes. (Advanced tab feature) The external backup drive (4TB Seagate Mac Drive) is only connected when I use it to backup physical files. I do not use a backup program. Everything is copied its own folder. Most files were ripped from my cd's i.e. to the external Drive using XLD. Not one pirated file. a few HD albums purchased from HD Tracks.
-I even tried re-adding some of the Original FLAC files to iTunes again. They were physical in my iTunes on the internal hard drive. They were also replaced.
The fact is .... The Original Files were altered. They had not been deleted and replaced, they were altered. They were the original files on my internal hard drive. Only 1 copy of iTunes is on the computer. -

You need Mac App Store to download OS X, and it's only in Macs, so you have to download 10.8 in the MacBook -
I had to take my hp back to factory setting and reinstall itunes, when I tried to use Itunes match it said i had to Deauthorize all my computers. I am using the same computer and desperately need access to my music.
When you reset to factory settings, the computer is de-authorised.
In iTunes menu Store > View Account > sign in > App Store > Deauthorise All.
Once done, authorise this computer iTunes.
Note: you can only do that once a year. -
2 mac user accounts, 2 itunes match accounts, 1 mac
I have a mac that I share by two seperate logins. I was using itunes match fine in my login. My gf signed up for itunes match and associated under itunes with in her own login, totally seperate itunes libary etc. Now I had issus with match not working so logged out of itunes match and back in with the same id and I am told
This computer is already associated with an Apple ID.
You can use iTunes Match on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 79 days
Am I really facing a situation where we can't have two itunes match accounts on the same hardware even with totally differnt log ins and apple ids?jphjph wrote:
This still seems to lead to the suggestion that a piece of mac hardware can not have multiple itunes account, could be time to ask for a refund.
This is exactly the case. Because iTunes Match is associated with one and only one iTunes Store account ID the same computer hardware can not be associated with two instances of iTunes Match. Just as the same iDevice hardware can not be associated with more than one iTunes Store account at a time.
