i Tunes Match Stuck in Stage 3 for 2 days. What do I do?

Questions to ask:
What were you doing before it showed the spinning wheel?
What do you see now besides the spinning wheel?
If not you can do what amineh97 did... Hold the power button. If all fails, write it here ASAP.

  • HT204406 iTunes match stuck on Stage 2 for two days!

    It says 23000 or 23017 of my songs have been checked, but won't do any further.
    Please advise. Thanks!

    I have this problem too, did you manage to resolve it? Mine stops at stage 3 uploading 1 of 950 songs. I sent an email to apple who said it is likely to be my firewall .. i turned off both my firewall and anti-v software to see and it still didn't work.. So far i have tried
    logging and and out of imatch and itunes
    stopping an restarting upload
    re-booting my Internet hub (although i am on 30GB download speed)
    turning off firewall and av software
    I've spent 3 days on this now and am getting a little frustrated

  • What's up with the I-tunes radio player not working now for several days?

    Wha's up with the I-tunes radio player not working now for several days? error message reads "an error occurred occurred while contacting the radio tuning service. Check your internet connection or try again later" My internet connection is fine.

    Having same issue on Powerbook G4 running 10.5.8 I suspect Apple disconnected the service.

  • How can I instruct mom how to listen to my music match music on her iPhone for Mothers Day ? In her settings what do I tell her to put ? Thanks in advance if anyone can help.

    If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
    1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
    2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
    3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
    If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod onto your computer. And here is a guide about how to transfer iPod music to iTunes. Hope it helps.

  • ITunes Match stuck at Step 1 for hours

    I just signed up for iTunes match and it has been stuck on Step 1 for hours. It analyzed all the music and the lower blue progress bar is full blue, but the top iTunes progress bar is just candy cane stripes and stuck on "Sending information to Apple..."
    My music library is about 80 gigs. I'm on OS X Lion. Airport Extreme router. Plenty of bandwidth on my cable modem plan. Anyone experience this before? Any solutions, or are Apple's servers on the fritz? From the looks of previous posts, seems like a lot of people have problems with the Match process...

    I had a lot of issues uploading my library with itunes match on Lion and it got worse after I upgraded to Mountain Lion OSX. I was stuck on Step 1 for hours...  I called applecare, they were troubleshooting with me for a bit until I found a fix.
    Here's a few fixes if you are stuck on step 1,2 or 3 in iTunes Match:
    One I've seen before but didn't quite work for me:
    1. Click "Stop" on Itunes Match
    2. Go to "Store" > Turn Off iTunes Match
    3. Then  DeAuthorize This Computer
    4. Then  Authorize thie Computer
    5. Then Turn on iTunes Match
    6. Click "Add This computer" again and see if these steps go any faster.
    They also suggested pressing Option while turning on iTunes Match but that just slowed things down further for me.
    What actually worked for me was to connect DIRECTLY to the internet with an ethernet cable. I have a Macbook AIr with no ethernet so I had to buy a Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter.
    That made Step 1 and 2 go by in a few minutes, and Step 3 is going to take a day to upload the remaining 1700 songs I have in my library. I guess because we're connecting to "the cloud" on Apple's Server via wifi its terribly slow. Best to connect your computer  through ethernet for this process.
    Hope this works for anyone out there!

  • Can't logon to Match on iphone 4s.  asks for ID and P/w.  ID it displays isn't complete, therefore password is incorrect.  Also says I'm not subscribed to Match, which I have been for 2 days.  Can anyone suggest anything.   Thanks.  jwbsr

    Purchased 'match' 2 days ago and since then I have been unable to turn on i-tunes match in settings on my iphone 4s.
    When I tap the switch to turn on match, I'm prompted for ID and P/w.  The ID on the prompt isn't complete, therefore when I enter the password, it isn't accepted. Also, sometimes the response comes back that I'm not subscribed to Match and go to my computer to subscribe.  I'm  completely lost at this point.
    Been playing with for almost 3 days.  Can anyone suggest what I could do?    Thank you  jwbsr...

    You must sign into the mobile iTunes Store with the same iTunes Store account ID you used to purchase iTunes Match. So... when you are prompted, if the information already in the text field isn't correct change it so it is.

  • Since I added my husband's applie id to i tunes I cant access my itunes for 90 days can I take off my husbands id

    when i go to play my music in my i tunes library it says you can download past purchases on this computer with just one apple id every 90 days you cannot associatie this computer wiwth a different apple id for 90 days.  I downloaded my husband's applie id onto my computer can i take this id off

    Yes, when you first turn the computer on, I'm not talking about iTunes. You can give different users of the computer their own personal profile, it means each user has their own independent settings almost as though they are on a completely different computer.
    In Windows 7 you need to go into control panel>user accounts>add or remove user accounts and set up an account with your own identity. From then on, when you switch the computer on there'll be two profiles to choose from, yours and your sons. If you go into your new profile and open iTunes it'll be like starting from scratch. You will be able to create a completely new iTunes account that'll be totally seperate from the old one. Unfortunately you'll have to add your music again.
    If you don't want to import all your CDs again you can copy them from the original profile on the computer to a flash drive and then copy them into the iTunes folder in your new profile.

  • HT204406 I tunes match isn't matching.....

    It won't match or upload my music- i-cloud status says "waiting" on eaverything, even things I purchased from -\i-tunes. I tried to updte match in an attempt to toubleshoot, and it tells me " you do not have enough access privileges to perform this operation". Really?!?!?!?

    Found the solution after reading a zillion threads. Close program. Right click on program shortcut. Click "run as administrator". Problem solved.

  • Why can't I tunes match provide drm free versions for purchased music?

    I bought Itunes match thinking that I was going to upgrade my entire library of purchased music from what was promised in their ads.   most of my music does not seem to be available in drm free versions.  is that normal?

    Hi,
    Most music can be upgraded with only a very small number not qualifying because the version of track is no longer available. Upgrading is not automatic. You need to delete the original and download upgraded version.

  • I have updated to IOS 6, the App store won't work, is stuck in update mode for 1 day and the battery now goes flat in 3 hrs without use. Can I go back to IOS 5?

    Hi, I was forced to upgrade to IOS 6 due to a restore.
    Since the upgrade, I have lost information, the App store is stuck in update mode, my battery drains in hours and many more problems.
    Is there a way to go back to the VERY RELIABLE IOS 5? This phone is nearly useless now.
    Thanks

    Just FYI - the situation is resolved.  I downloaded the new snow leopard 10.6.8 update for safari and now itunes works.  I have no idea what that has to do with anything - but I saw it on another forum and it actually worked.

  • Printer stuck in "delete-Printing" for four days; HP Deskjet 3000.

    Tried to print 6 page PowerPoint file on HP Deskjet 3000, but printer stuck and would not print. Tried to delete from queue, but status continually shows "Deleting-Printing" for past four days.  How do I fix this?

    Hi,
    From the Desktop, hold down the Windows key and press R.  Into the Run window, type services.msc and hit enter.  Browse down to the print spooler service, right click it and select Properties then click on the Stop button.  Now browse to C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS and delete the job(s) inside this folder - You may need to click a prompt to gain the appropriate authority to open the PRINTERS folder.
    Restart the computer and you should find the document(s) have been removed.
    Regards,

  • Trying to update ipad, stuck on verifying udate for 3 days

    I tried to update my ipad 3 days ago, It is stuck on verify updates and will not let me get pass that message. Help!!!

    Try a reset and see what happens.
    Reset 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.
    Your iPad may go into recovery mode which means that you will have to restore the device, so take a look at this in case you find yourself in that situation.

  • Ipod touch 4th gen. won't load to home screen. Stuck on apple logo for two days. Help?!

    My ipod touch's battery died, so I plugged it in to charge. After awhile it turned on to where the apple logo shows up. After a day the logo was still on the screen with a loading sign there. It won't load to the home screen after 2 days. Help?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
