Download all songs onto macbook from iTunes match cloud.

I just bought a macbook pro, i would like to download all my music from itunes match onto my macbook but don't want to manually select the cloud for each song. Is there an easier way to download them all?

This is not the best or most efficent way to get your music onto your new Mac. The best way is to copy all your personal content from an origional computer or backup archive. These Apple KB articles can help you:

If you insist on downloading from the cloud simply highlight all the tracks you want, right-click, and choose "download."

TS1567 I have an old ipod nano. How do I download the songs I purchased from itunes onto my older ipod?

How do I download the songs I purchased from itunes onto my older ipod nano...I believe it is a 2nd generation? I plug it into my computer, but nothing happens!!!

Hello shay82578,
It sounds like you are trying to sync music from iTunes to your iPod nano. I found some articles with steps to sync music to your iPod:
If you are using iTunes 11, you will want to follow the steps in this article:
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12313
If you are using an earlier version of iTunes, you can follow the steps in this article:
iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
To be able to sync music from iTunes to your iPod nano, the music will need to be on the computer rather than streaming from iTunes in the Cloud. You can find the steps to download your purchased music to your computer's hard drive under the section titled, "Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on a computer" in the following article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I can't download songs in IOS6 from iTunes Match on my iPod and other complaints...

1) Since I upgraded, it takes like 15 minutes to view music from iTunes match onto my iPod, then has no "download" button like before. Instead, when I try to play a song it just DOESN'T PLAY. What a tease! Why is this like this?
While I'm on the subject,
2) Why does iTunes match replace explicit versions of albums I have with the clean versions? That *****! Is there a way around that, like, can I select a preference so all Beastie Boys songs are explicit? I'm 30 years old - I think I can handle the occasional cuss.
And finally,
3) How to you unsubscribe from this service? Too many complaints and not worth even $2/month.
I love Apple, but I have an iPod primarily to play music. If it is unable to perform that function, why make it? I've been a loyal customer for over 10 years and have purchased three laptops, an iPad, three iPhones, and had an iPod since they were introduced to the market. I also convinced my parents and say nothing bad about your company. Until now. Fix this, Apple, or this poor man will no longer justify spending money on your products.

Update:
How do you delete iTunes match? I clicked on "do not renew" or whatever from my account, but it doesn't expire 'till March 2013. I can't wait that long to listen to music. I turned "match" off on all my devices on my account and closed out all itunes and settings applications just like customer support told me to do after I waited an hour to talk to no one who could help.
My BRAND NEW iPod touch 5th generation is still having the same problem. I can only see what music I formerly had in my iTunes match account, but can't listen to any of it, including the 47 songs my library is supposed to have.
Come on, Apple. I really just want to listen to my music, unedited, on a device I hooked up to a computer with a USB cable.
Please help.

My downloaded song from iTunes match "cloud" cuts into the next song half way though the song

This happens on most of my songs that are not bought on iTunes. The uploaded copies are great they play fine untill you download them to anything. Then problem i have ocurrs. The problem is that half way through a downloaded song it cuts into the next song, while still telling me that the first song is still playing.
I have tryed deleting then redownloading the song onto multiple divices like my iPhones, iPad but the song is still only plays half.
well i hope someone can help fix this it's realy is annoying

Fixed it....after searching here and seeing that there was a pretty widespread problem with that whole Kelly Clarkson album.
My song was an imported MP3 from my CD. I deleted it from the cloud and then locally on my PC I "Created AAC version". Then reupdated iTunes match. Now it plays fine.

Why can't I download a song I uploaded in iTunes Match

Of all my songs in iTunes that I placed in iCloud, there is one that I can't download. The program (iTunes or Music on my iPhone) keeps saying it is not available. It was a song that I made digital from the original cd. According to the iTunes store, the album is in the store. So I don't understand why it can't match it. Does anyone know how I can get it back?

If it is not matched, unfortunately there is something missing or not tagged correctly for Itunes Match to recognize it. I have a few songs that it does that for, mainly some Beatles songs which is surprising since they are popular.
I have found that after a few updates of Itunes Match library, it is getting better on matching.
The song should be still on your computer, unless you deleted it.

Trouble getting all songs onto Ipod from computer

IPod Classic Pauses at 9 seconds on all songs NOT originally from iTunes?

Recently any song I play that was not originally purchased via iTunes (stuff I had on my old PC for years that have always worked fine) pauses at 11 seconds. All of the songs I have purchased through iTunes and some of the songs I imported from CDs work fine. Is this a glitch in the newest iTunes software?

Do you have anything installed that might be writing to the music file, for example an external program like Clutter which looks for artwork or pearLyrics (or similar widget) that looks for lyrics? If they are finding the information and adding it to the file as the song plays, it can cause a pause or stutter.
Do you have a notification program such as Growl? I don't know enough about these programs to know why they cause a problem but the last time this question got asked, it turned out to be a notification program the name of which I've forgotten.
iScobbler could be a culprit. Look for any helper applications for iTunes.

Can't download purchased content onto ipad from iTunes Store

I have purchased a tv series on the iTunes Store on my lap top. When I go to iTunes on my iPad it will not let me download it onto my iPad. The cloud symbol turns to a circle for a couple of seconds and then goes back to a cloud symbol. Any ideas? Thanks.

That's good to hear.
After some mucking about I managed to get it downloading on another computer (which is already running 10.8). Hopefully I should be able to copy it over and install.
But I will let Apple know - potentially pretty disasterous for people.
Thanks.

Song Version Control in iTunes Match Cloud

Singer/Songwriter loaded rough versions of mixes to cloud with iMatch; now fully mastered versions in iTunes are changing names (files remain intact, but name/info changes). How can we replace/manage the versions available in the cloud?

Hi fasking,
If you take a look at the following article, there should be an option when deleting the local file for whether or not you want to delete the copy on iCloud:
iTunes Store: How to delete songs from iCloud
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4915
To delete an item from iCloud in iTunes
From a computer with iTunes Match enabled, open iTunes 10.5.1 or later on your computer. You can download the latest version of iTunes here.
Click Music on the left side of iTunes.
Select the item you would like to delete. Right-click the item and then choose Delete.
You will be asked to confirm this action.
If the item you want to delete exists in iTunes on your computer as well as in iCloud, click the checkbox to also delete the item from iCloud.
It's also always a good idea to have a local backup of any files you are concerned about keeping:

HT1491 When I try to download a song I purchased from itunes on my iphone I keep getting Unable to Download Song and then I have to click either done or retry. Why does this happen?

Sounds like you have abn expired credit card linked o yoru accopunt.
View your iTunes account payment info and select None for the CC.
You may need to first add a valid card number before you can remove it.

HT1711 Remove all songs and movies from Itunes ??

I need to delete every thing in my Itunes in macbook pro and iphones 4s too ??

See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash.
The "correct" layout for an iTunes library is an iTunes folder that contains the database files and an iTunes Media folder inside that contains the media subdivided according to media kind, e.g. Music, Podcasts, Movies, Books etc.

HT204406 Downloading from iTunes Match.

I am trying to download one of my albums from iTunes Match, and only some of the songs are downloading (yes, I clicked download all). The songs show the circle as if it's going to download, but then the "Cloud" icon reappears, and the download begins with the next song. I have tried deleting the album and starting over, but that doesn't work. Anyone know how to fix this? Happens when I try Cellular Data or just Wifi.
Thanks!
Sean

Yes it will use data on your cellular plan unless connected to wi-fi.

ITunes library lost - how to recreate from iTunes Match?

During an upgrade from Win8 Evaluation copy to Win8 Pro, my upgrade corrupted and I ended up having to reformat my laptop's HDD to do a fresh install of Windows (thanks MS!). I always used iTunes to keep the library organised and copy everything to the media folder, and stored the media folder on my NAS. However, I think that the library files (.itl, .xml) and some other data (apps and video?) may have been kept by iTunes in the My Music folder on my laptop. I also subscribe to iTunes Match, so in theory, all music is there.
Now that Win8 is reinstalled and stable, I've done a clean install of iTunes. I've been able to change the media folder location to the mapped NAS drive and logged in using my Apple ID. Although iTunes now shows (what I think is) all my music, it shows it all as being available from iTunes Match (i.e. cloud symbol), rather than locally.
My question is this: how do I get iTunes to recognise that the library contents are available on the designated media folder already? Ideally I'd like to do this without having to download the ~60GB of music from iTunes Match onto the NAS, as it's already there! Also, is there anything else I need to do to complete the library, e.g. in case some things exist on my iPhone and aren't currently in the library? Will I have lost previous backups of phones / iPods?
Finally, so that I don't get caught in this situation again, is it possible to get iTunes to store everything on a remote folder, rather than just music media? (Note to self: run laptop backup more than once every 6 months in future!!!).
Thanks in advance for your help.
