How long does it take to load iTunes Match on Apple TV?

I have a large (roughly 20k) iTunes library and after managing to get it synced on my laptops and phone (no small feat, required a network upgrade) now I can't seem to get it to load on Apple TV.  My question is whether this needs to be a long single session update or will Apple TV work on it every time I try it and just get it done a month or two from now?
Thanks in advance, I hope!

It needs to be done in a single session. If you've been turning it off then it's having to rescan your library each time.  If your router is in a different space then that will also impact performance. Try setting the sleep to never and give it some time.
Once the process is complete, you will have access to your library (see screenshot)

  • HT4539 How long does it take to download itunes match?

    Hello,
    I subscribed to itunes Match 2 days ago and it is still downloading,  does anyone know how long this process takes?

    iTunes Match is a service. There is no software to download or upload. What is happening is your iTunes library is being mirrored in the cloud by iTunes comparing what is in your library to what is availble on the iTunes Store. Any tracks that are not "purchased" or "matched" will be uploaded. How long the process takes is dependent on the size of your iTunes library and the upload speed of your internet connection. Based on these two things the process can takes hours, days, or weeks. Just be patient.

  • How long should it take to setup iTunes match on apple tv

    I have about 300 cd's in iTunes Match. Cant seem to get apple tv to complete setting up iTunes match. Ideas? Or is it house that I have to wait?

    I kind of gave up as I had other things to do. Had run about 30 minutes and never said anything other than "this might take a while". I have access to iTunes match on my macbook, my iPad, my iPhone, just would like to have it on the Apple TV so its easier for my wife to navigate our library when i am not around.

  • So how long does it take to load a 160GB iPod using the Convert Higher ...

    I have a 160GB Gen 5 that I bought when first released back in the day when they were $400. Through a number of changes, the most recent being the advent of the Convert Higher Bitrate Songs to 128bit AAC feature, I decided to look at what more music I could store. After all was said and done, I ended up with a bit of a disaster with cover art not being properly applied to the music being played. I decided to *restore the ipod* based on suggestions in the discussion boards, and equally important was following the hints and tips here.
    http://www.samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp
    The advice is especially important in very large library situations to ensure you have uniqueness in the albums you want to display. Hadn't really given it much thought until I had the ability to see the individual albums for the 40K songs on the iPod via the cover art view.
    Finally the point of the post...
    *So how long does it take to load a 160GB iPod using the Convert Higher Bitrate option now available in iTunes 9.1?* The specs on my computer are not highend by any stretch, but it's no slouch, and neither of the CPUs are ever pegged. At this point I've lost count of how much time it's taken, but the load is going on 3-4 days. With some breaks in between because I need to check each incremental load to verify there is no cover art corruption, correct bad tags and such, but for the most part the loading is visibly slow, and I'm sure the conversion is the cause. I'm not really complaining at this point, but there is clearly room for improvement. And of course unless there is a redo involved in which case I will get quite cranky.
    *I would like to hear the experiences of others.*
    Finally to lend a bit more credence to the performance concern, my 32GB iPhone 3GS for only about say 28GB of music takes about 24 hrs to load from a 2.2GHz dual core intel laptop, again using the convert higher bitrate option.

    With AC power adapter it takes 3-4 hours for a full charge. With the USB charger it takes 9-0 hours for a full charge. I am not happy with them removing the AC charger and other accessoreis at all. It's business but it still stinks.
    I know I would rethink my purchase but would most likely end up buying the Micro anyway

  • How long does it take to get a refund from Apple?

    I returned my MacBook on the 6th or 7th day of having it, and paid the re-stocking fee, 2 weeks ago. Yet I still have no refund. How long does it take to get my refund?
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Well it shouldn't take 2 weeks.
    Call Apple to find out what the status is on your refund or you can go to the Apple store and find out what's going on in person.
    Just curious, but why did you return your MacBook?
    You should give in another try!

  • How long does it take to get approval from iTunes Connect and how do I find out if they are working on it?

    How long does it take to get approval from iTunes Connect and how do I find out if they are even working on it? I'm not really sure if my application was even delivered - from the links in IBA. Any suggestions how one might push the right buttons at Apple?
    Also went around in a big circle trying to get beyond the confusion of not having the right Apple ID when I've had it a long time. Confusion abounds and learning this forum also takes a new degree of patience. Humbling to say the least :-)
    Anyone been there done that?

  • How long does it take for the credit on the iphone 5 itunes to start declining after a purchase

    how long does it take for the credit on the iphone 5 itunes to start declining after a purchase? I used a $15 gift card, it was redeemed, and it showed up in my itunes account on my phone but after buying songs, the credit did not decline from 15, even after I restarted itunes on my phone.

    Nt sure on O2, but that seems to be a long time, you need to call your carrier and make sure they dont need to activate it. I believe they do.

  • How long does it takes for iTunes to restore software on a 5s?

    How long does it takes for iTunes to restore software in a iPhone?

    There are three major portions involved in a restore:
    1.  Downloading the latest copy of iOS to your Mac for installation on the iPhone.
    2.  Installing the software from your Mac onto the iPhone.
    3.  Restoring all the contents of your iPhone (except iOS, which was done in the above step).
    Step 1 will depend on your Mac's download speed.  We are talking about downloading more than 1GB.
    Step 2 should take about 10 minutes or less.
    Step 3 will depend on how much personal stuff (e.g., apps, photos, music) you had on your iPhone.  It might take minutes, or an hour or more.

  • How Long does it take for a NEW PODCAST to appear in iTunes?

    I was curious if maybe you know the answer to this question- How long does it take for a brand new podcast, once submitted to iTunes, to appear in the podcast section of iTunes? Does it really take 5 days? And, will I receive an email once it's on there? Thanks!
    -hdtvguru

    Hi,
    I found the answer to this question after doing two podcasts.
    It takes about week and half to be fully listed. When you first submit you receive an automated email. Emailed to the email address of your podcast feed. Then your podcast page is created for itune store and you receive another email that it's approved. You should receive this email sometimes two days after you received the first but it still won't be browse able until another few weeks(ie. listed in category). In the mean time don't remove your podcast feed file from your hosting account and don't make changes which will change the link to the feed you submitted.
    The only other part I couldn't figure out was why podcasts episodes don't come up when keywords from episode sections of podcast feed are typed in itune search box.

  • How long does it take for the new ios to load?

    how long does it take for the new ios to load?

    you mean to install it or to run after instalation?
    downloading takes from a half hour, up to 2 hours if your connection is poor.
    installing takes about 5 minutes.
    and running it is like a minute.

  • HT4623 trying to sign in apple id and password done--now says loading --how long does this take???

    entered id and password --now says loading--how long does this take????

    With regard to what? I assume that since the link connected to your question was from the "How to update your iDevice" kb article, you are talking about seeing this behavior after you updated the iPad.
    So, if that's the case, it really shouldn't take but a minute or so, if it even takes that long. If this has been going on for minutes and minutes, the update process is stuck now. You can try restarting the iPad and see if the iPad behaves normally. That might be all that you need to do to set things right again. If restarting just takes you back to this page loading again, you can try rebooting the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
