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.

    Hi!
    I have no credit card.Can I use iTunes Match without credit card?

    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.

    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

  • HT4914 Can I use iTunes Match to transfer music from an iPhone4 to a new iPhone5s? I'm traveling without my laptop!

    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.

    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.

    can i use itunes radio without sifi like while driving in my car?

    Actually yes, beacause you have 4g or LTE and it will service with the WIFI, although it will cost cause for the internet like 4g and LTE so don't use too much. PS: I learned it the hard way.

  • 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.

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

    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.

    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.

  • Can I use iTunes Match on an ATV without a TV attached?

    I've got an Apple TV2 that I use for music-only playback, attached to my hifi (using Toslink output, with nothing connected to the HDMI output). It works well with airplay and home sharing, but I'd like to use iTunes Match (airplay from an ios device seems susceptible to glitches, and the Mac with the iTunes library on it is normally suspended if I'm not working).
    However, I can't see a way to control playback from iTunes Match without a screen attached. The Apple Remote app lets me play music using home sharing, but you can't really access the menu portion without a tv attached to the ATV2 to see what's happening.

    Hi,
    i'm just following this thread and have the same problem as the first poster.
    I would love to go to my IPAD with ICloud match enabled and listen to music, but on a proper AV-Receiver system without having a cable attached to the IPAD  and WITHOUT turning the TV on and WITHOUT running my laptop all the time.
    If i understood this correctly, there are 2 options:
    1.) buy the Airport Express and connect it the to the AV-Receiver and use Airplay.
    2.) buy the new Apple TV 2 and enable/sync it with ITunes Match.
    As far as i understood the main difference is, that on option 1 with Airport Express, the music is still downloaded to my IPAD (16 GB) and then using Airplay to stream it via the Airport Express to my AV-receiver. .  So i have to cleanup space after listening to music, otherwise i might run out of space some day....
    Also there is another drawback of this method, the battery consumption, because the IPAD streams all the time while listening to music.
    Using Itunes Match on Apple TV 2 doesn't download the songs to the ATV 2 , but streams it, because it has no HD capacities..The IPAD is working as a Remote using the latest "Apple Remote App".
    This would not consume any battery on the IPAD, since the music process is running on the ATV 2.
    As far as i can see, it is possible with the latest firmware of ATV2 and latest IOS enabled.
    However, i din't manage to find a statement of how the remote App looks like. All the youtube videos i found show the IPAD/Iphone,/IPOD actually remote controlling the ATV2 software on the TV screen. 
    Open the Remote app on your device (in this case iPhone). Select the Apple TV you want to use iTunes Match with. You'll see a number of icons in the bottom of the screen. The music related ones (Playlists, Genres, Artists, Albums etc) show your iTunes Match library. If you start playing one of these, it will be streamed from iTunes to your Apple TV. No need for a computer with iTunes to be on.
    When i open the Remote App on my IPAD i only get a selection of "enable home sharing" or "add media library". I can't find the Apple TV icon or any icons in the bottom of the screen. Only these 2.
    I guess, this is just because i don't have an ATV 2 yet.
    Does the Remote App show a screen like my music library on my IPAD ? With all the nice album art etc. ?
    If not, i would rather go with option 1 with all the drawbacks of space, battery, etc...
    Please reply, if any of you has made any experience with it.
    Thanks for beeing patient, but i need to know which streaming device i should by.

  • HT204406 I am using iTunes Match and want to "uncheck" songs so that I can use my shuffle and not hear every song in my itunes.

    Can I "uncheck" songs in my iTunes while using iTunes Match?  I want to use my shuffle and not hear every song in my itunes.  I use a MacBook Pro, iphone 4S and an ipad.

    I know of no way to do this.
    Itunes ringtones are for iphones.

  • Can I use iTunes Match without a PC/Mac?

    I want to move all my iTunes library to iCloud with a view to moving to an iOS only existance   I currently own a MacBook running iTunes 11 and can easily susbscribe to iTunes match and get all my music into iCloud.  At that point I'm unclear if I still need to be running iTunes on a PC/Mac or if I'll be okay just managing my music in iCloud.  Sure, I won't be able to rip CD's anymore, but I don't care too much about that.
    I'm also wondering if i'd be better with a subscription service such as Spotify rather than iTunes Match.
    Anyone who can help?
