HT4914 If I subscribe to iTunes Match, can I download onto my new iPhone 6, just my music playlists and not my entire library?

If I subscribe to iTunes Match, can I download onto my new iPhone 6, just my music playlists and not my entire library? I have over 100 playlists and even more music not in playlists and I don't want to download all of it to my phone.
Thanks

First read this: FAQ: Why iTunes Match Can Not Be Used as a Backup
So, before you sell your Mac make sure all your personal data is backed up to an external HDD then put that HDD in a safe place. When you return you will be able to use it to restore your data to the new Mac.
Before you sell your computer you must restore the original version OS X that was installed on it when you bought it. See this Apple KB article for how to prepare your Mac for sale: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5189.

  • How can I play a playlist and not the entire library on my shuffle?

    I can't seem to organize songs into playlists and then play only the songs in the playlist -

    There is if you play music from your computer (mine is connected via AirTunes to several stereo systems) or if you later get a Nano, or iPod with Video or an iPhone that does support playlists.
    You can also use them to load songs on your Shuffle. For example, say you are going on a long exercise walk and you want many motivational songs with increasingly faster tempos. You could create a playlist on your computer, put the songs in it that you want, in the order you want, call it Long Walk, and then when your Shuffle is connected choose to Autofill from the playlist Long Walk

  • If i subscribe to itunes match can I use this to transfer my music to a new laptop

    if i subscribe to itunes match can I use this to transfer my music to a new laptop

    Don't.
    1) Match would be horribly slow unless you have a tiny library.
    2) Match won't transfer all file formats. I am pretty sure it is just music.
    3) Match may degrade your music quality if you use high quality file formats.
    Why not simply copy the whole iTunes folder to the other computer using an external drive, then start iTunes on the other computer while holding down the option/alt key and select the copied folder?  This will copy the entire library intact.

  • How do I delete apps from my itunes acct so they dont download onto my new iphone?

    How do I delete apps off my iTunes acct so they don't download onto my new iphone?

    Open iTunes with your device connected to the computer. Click on the Apps entry under Libraries in the iTunes sidebar. Locate the apps you don't want, select the app, CTRL- or RIGHT-click and select Delete from the context menu. When you've deleted all the ones you don't want re-sync your device with iTunes.

  • Is it possible to move my iTunes from the old laptop to the new one (including all the music files and playlists) without having to start all over again with a blank iTunes?

    Is it possible to move my iTunes from the old laptop to the new one (including all the music files and playlists) without having to start all over again with a blank iTunes?

    yes
    You will need to copy the whole iTunes folder which is in your user profile on the old computer in Music folder.
    Before you do it make sure iTunes are updates on the old computer and it works without any problems.
    This will copy all your media, music, movies (provided you did not change the default location).
    After the migration you will need to sing in to Apple store again with your Apple ID
    and also authorize your new computer (both done from the tom menu bar in Store.
    Once you are done please deauthorize your old computer (the same menu path) if you are not planning to use it anymore.
    Any problems post here.

  • HT4914 When I subscribed to iTunes Match I lost all my songs. I did a back up of my ITunes Library to iCloud but I can't find the songs! Can someone help me?

    When I subscribed to iTunes Match I lost all my songs. I did a back up of my ITunes Library to iCloud but I can't find the songs! Can someone help me?

    I guess the iTunes store is not recognizing your computer. Did you de-authorise your computer after you uploaded to iTunes Match. Did you register your new computer with a different User ID? Do you have Genius turned on (which needs to be on as it works in conjunction with iTunes Match. Did you authorise your new computer?
    You paid for ITunes match & uploaded your songs using a different computer. So there are obviously one or more steps which need to be taken to download your media from the iCloud. Either someone else with more expertise than I can help you, for example, Limnos Limnos ; or King_Penguin King_Penguin or Chris_CA https://discussions.apple.com/people/Chris%20CA would probably be able to help you better than I.
    I don't work for Apple, I'm only a volunteer, if you can't get help from someone as mentioned above there's always Kappy (who is extremely busy) Kappy ;

  • HT4914 Trying to subscribe to Itunes Match

    I am trying to subscribe to Match and I cannot get the screen to put my username and password to go away.  I enter it.  It accepts it and then the same window pops up again and will not let me purchase.  Any thoughts?

    Hi beestingya,
    If you're getting repeatedly asked for your username and password when trying to subscribe to iTunes Match, try these steps to see if they help:

  • HT204406 I have subscribed to iTunes Match.  It is turned on on my mac but on my iPad and iphone it says that I have not subscribed.  I have tried turning everything on and off, backed up iCloud. Still no joy, any tips please?  Thank you

    I have downloaded iTunes Match to my mac.  However when I try to access on my iPad and iphone, it says that I have not subscribed.  I have the cloud on my mac showing all the songs there.  I have tried turning everything on and off and also backed up again.  Any suggestions please?

    Home sharing is separate from iTunes Match.  Sounds like you were playing music using home sharing, which turned off when you turned off your computer.
    Open iTunes on your computer and go to the Store menu.  Confirm that there is a setting called Turn Off iTunes Match.  That will confirm that iTunes Match is enabled on your computer.  Then check to see what Apple ID you subscribed to iTunes Match with.  It will be the ID in Store>View Account (in parentheses).
    On your iPad, confirm that you are signed in with this same ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store (at the top).  If so, you should see an iTunes Match setting listed with an on/off slider.  Slide it on to enable iTunes Match on your iPad.

  • HT4914 I have an iTunes library of some 18k tracks. If I subscribe to iTunes Match, can I delete my library from the pc hard drive and then download my entire collection back at the higher bit rate of 256?

    I would like to improve the quality of my iTunes library, most of which were ripped at the old 'higher quality' setting and not lossless.
    I would consider subscribing to the iTunes Match programme if I would later be able to download my music back on to my PC at the improved higher bit rate  stated.
    Is there a problem with this?

    In iPhoto, Select All the Photos you want to move... Then goto  > File > Export >
    Choose the settings as seen here
    Click Export and select your External Drive
    Best to create a Folder to put them in... and away you go...

  • How do I update itunes on my old Mac so I can get songs onto my new iphone?

    My Mac (G4 OSX) is too old to update to the appropriate itunes so that I can drag songs from my itunes to my iphone4.  Is there a fix or trick for that, anyone?  Thank you, thank you in advance.  :-)  And would I have the same problem using icloud?

    no.
    If I caddy up the old drive to the new machine and boot to it then de-authorise there will that work
    you need to launch iTunes on the dead Mac in order to de-authorize that computer. if that is not possible, you need to wait until you reach the "5" authorizations. then you get the option to +de-authorize all+ (once a year).

  • Bought an album via iTunes (deskstop), can't download that for my iPhone

    So, how I can download a bought album to my iPhone? Seems like a simple task, but every time the iTunes in iPhone is trying to charge money again without giving any resolutions, how to get that album to my phone.
    Originally I bought the album via desktop iTunes, but didn't download it on it. I could download it to my desktop and sync it with my iPhone, but I rather don't want to loose the current songs I have and which I have lost so many times before syncinc new music to my iPhone.

  • Why can I only see my purchased songs and not my entire library when I use an ipad?

    Why can I only access my 'purchased' songs when I sign into an ipad with my AppleID.  How can I access my entire itunes library (purchased, playlists and downloaded music)?

    If it's iTunes purchased music then you might be able to re-download it on your iPad via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app - it will download into the Music app. If you want your other music from your computer's iTunes (e,g. music copied from CDs and playlists) then you will need to sync it from your computer's iTunes to your iPad's Music app.

  • Can't download apps on new iphone 6

    Not sure if this is the correct place to post but ...
    Just got my new iPhone 6 and I can't seem to download anything from the app store.  I'll press the icon to download, it will change to the circle image for a second, then it just stops.  Is this an ios 8 issue/ iphone 6 problem?  is the app store down? Anybody else experiencing the same issue?
    thanks!

    But based on this, App Store is fine:  https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/

  • Hi, I have purchased an audio book on iTunes from an iMac and it does not show up on the cloud so I can't download it on my iPhone. Does anyone know why and how I can proceed to transfer the audio book purchase?

    Hi
    I have purchased an audio book from iTunes with my iMac.
    Now I wanted to listen to it on my iPhone so I proceeded to transfer the purchase and looked for the book in the purchased section of the store in the iTunes on my iPhone but it did not show up.
    Does anyone know why and how I can transfer the audio book purchased on my iPhone so I can listen while away from the desk?
    Thank you,

    Can you find the audio book by using the Search feature on the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync the audio book to the iPod?

    Note you have to check the boxes in Books pane for the iPod in iTunes to sync books in general and another box to sync Audio Books.
