  • HT204406 How can I turn off iTunes match on my mac

    I want to disable iTunes Match on my Macbook Pro?   How do I do that?
    The main reason is bc I just want to sync all of  my music to my iPad and not have to download it from the cloud one song at a time on my iPad.

    jrhuff -
    Open iTunes
    At the top menu select "Store"
    Scroll down to "Turn off iTunes Match" (I've already turned mine off so it shows " Turn on iTunes Match") If your's is on, it will say, "Turn off iTunes Match"

  • HT204406 How do I turn off iTunes match

    I don't want to use it any more, and it is keeping mew from switching countries for the store. I don't care about the music in the cloud.

    You don't need to turn off iTunes Match to get your content out of the cloud.

  • How can I turn off itunes match on my phone without losing all my playlists?

    I have itunes match but want to keep all my music on my iPhone because I travel and don't always have access to the internet.  I upgrades to ios8 and now it seems if I turn off iTunes Match in my phone it get rid of all my playlists.  How can I stop that from happening.  I want my music, and playlist on my phone.

    To keep playlists on the phone, create them on the phone
    To keep music on the phone, download the tracks before turning off Match.
    But turning off Match isn't really necessary. Just turn off Show all music in the music app settings, or do not attempt to play a track that has a cloud icon (i.E. isn't downloaded).

    Hi Scott Waters,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that you want to turn off iTunes Match on your Apple computer. You can turn if off under Store in the Menu Bar. The following article has information for how to turn iTunes Match on, the option to turn it off will be in the same Store drop down menu.

    Furthermore, after turning off iTunes Match on your computer, I suggest going into your Account Information in iTunes and turning off the Auto-Renew subscription for iTunes Match if you have decided that you no longer want it. That information and instructions can be found in this article.

  • How do i turn off iTunes match, it won't turn off even though it says it's off?

    On what device and why, exactly, do you think iTunes Match is not turned off?

  • How do you permanently turn off iTunes match?

         I just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS7. I'm very excited and happy with the update. Everything looks very nice and is much more intuitive than before. However, I am having one slight problem. I can't turn off iTunes match.
    iTunes match is not something I like to use on my phone. I've always found it to be a little annoying and it tends to get in the way of my music listening experience. Once the update was complete, I opened up settings, went to music, and deselected iTunes match. However, it's not staying unselected. Everytime I look back into the music options it's turned on again. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I've been having the same problem for about a week now and it's driving me crazy. I've changed passwords in everything to reflect the new protocols (that nobody informed us about, I might add) of having at least one capital, etc. etc., but that hasn't changed anything. I do have one song pending download that WON'T download because the file at iTunes is apparently corrupt, and I can't seem to simply eliminate this one song from the queue. HELP!!!!

  • HT204406 Does anyone else have to "Turn Off iTunes Match" and "Turn On iTunes Match" for it to become available and working on a second computer??

    Everyday I get to work and open iTunes. Everyday the iTunes Match logo next to my library is constantly working and never stops. The only way I can have access to my iTunes Match library is to "Turn Off iTunes Match" and "Turn On iTunes Match" immediatly after. It checks libraries and then everything is available.
    Is there a reason and a way to have my iTunes Match to work as soon as I open iTunes?
    The requirements are met:
    iTunes: 10.6.3 (25)
    OS X: 10.6.8
    Thanks
    Marc

    Thanks for the tip, unfortunately that did not work for me.  I turned off match and let it sit for over 3 hours and music never disappeared.  I made sure to turn off auto-lock so the iPhone/iPad didn't go to sleep and neither device ever cleared out the music so I just restored from iCloud backup.
    Now the other thing thats strange is I still have autolock turned off and both devices are sitting on the music app and on my iPhone I have the cloud icon going with the status bar and took 3 hours to get it complete the first time and then someone called me and foolishly answered the phone and then it started all over again.  On my iPad I don't see the cloud icon but i have the spinning wheel going in the corner for almost 24 straight hours now.  I have all my music/artwork back but none of my playlists so I am going to let both these devices sit until the spinning circle stops. 
    I do have a large library of just under 25,000 songs so maybe thats why its taking so long but I haven't had this issue before iOS 5.1 and iTunes 10.6.

  • I cant turn off itunes match on my iphone

    i recently reset my iphone to factory settings. Everything seems to be set up correctly but when I try to sync music from Itunes to my Iphone it tells me Itunes match is on. On Itunes itself it says match is off. On my phone it says its on and when I toggle it off it goes right back on. Is there a way to disable itunes match altogether...it stinks.

  • Perminently Turn Off iTunes Match in iTunes 12.0.1

    I cannot sync music with any of my iOS 8 devices since my iTunes Match subscription ran out. (I purposely let it lapse due to it sucking so bad!) So now I cannot sync purchased music that is in my iTunes library with any devices because it says 'iTunes Match is turned on'. How do I permanently turn it OFF?
    Mid-2009 MBP running OS-X 10.10, iPhone 5s running iOS 8.1.
    Thanks, John

    Hi JohnTheMacGeek,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    The attached article shows how to turn on iTunes Match for both iOS and CPU. The areas on your computer and iPhone that show iTunes Match on in the following article, you can turn off. I would also suggest following all of the steps toward the bottom of the article, Turn off iTunes Match Auto-Renew.

  • Turn off iTunes match

    Every time i start iTunes, it attempts to match my songs with iCloud. I have over 10,000 songs in my library.  This takes about 10 minutes, during which time, nothing else can be done in iTunes.  How do I turn this off so it is only done manually, not automatically?

    go to the store tab on itunes. Not the actual store but the tab at the top of the screen that says store and press the turn off itunes match. 
    Step 3 takes a while if you have a lot of uploads and a slow connection.
    basically it takes a while if you have a lot of uploads and a fast connection. 
    If you'll leave it running and just walk away from it and let it do its thing it will finally get done.
    Just be patient.  It's not as fast as we all expected, especially with all the people uploading to it at the same time.
