HT4914 How does iTunes match work with multiple Apple IDs?

I am trying to set up an iTunes Match account that complies the music of my whole family so that we can all acceess it from our devices. First, is it possible to upload music from multiple apple IDs and / or devices. And is it possible to then access the iTunes match library from multiple apple IDs? I know you can access the muysic from up to 10 devices but do they all have to be logged into the same apple ID to do so? Thanks for the help

You'll need to have the music on a computer or an external drive connected to it.

IPhone 5s and iTunes match started with wrong apple i

Hello,
Yesterday I started with iTunes match with one of my apple id's (the one I mostly use for shopping)
UnfortunateIy, while reading the instructions I didn't quite understand that it would not be available to my other id (apple id for iCloud)
My macbook, windows pc and ipad are synced with the correct apple id (for iCloud)
Now my iphone is not synced because I started iTunes match with another apple id of mine....!
As I realise what happened I think that a 90 day period is absurd!!! in order to get my device free to sync with my choice apple id
Because of this situation I have bought de iTunes match twice.
Can you help me with the two following?
1. Is it possible to cancel de purchase for apple id: please?
2. And to have my iPhone 5s available for de iTunes match
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Mari Barneveld

Hello mary.bee
To resolve the issue, you will need to report the issue to the iTunes Store. As for the 90 days the article below will have some information about associating your Apple ID with other devices.

Itunes match problems with latest Apple TV

I have a strange problem with iTunes Match on Apple TV (the Latest Apple TV)
My ipad lists all of my iTunes Match songs, about 10000 or so songs, where as my Apple TV only lists 50 songs.
I have rebooted Apple TV numerous times.
I have upgraded Apple TV and fiddled with Apple tv settings.
My Apple TV can find all music when my Mac and iTunes is turned on, but can only find 50 songs through iTunes match.
My ipad is on ios6.
Please help me fix this Apple TV problem.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You need to set up homesharing on both devices using the same ID and password.
Make sure they are on the same network and that your firewall or security software isn't blocking iTunes.

HT4914 can itunes match works with audio book?

Can itunes match support audio books bought through audible.com?

i do not think so i think it only works with thing bought through iTunes

What does iTunes Match do with lossless apple audio files? Does it down convert to 256kb?

That would indeed be sad.

Hi,
See this http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4437
When you play music from you computer, it will play your lossless files. When you stream music from your computer using airplay, it will play the music that is on your computer. As long as you keep the original files on you computer, there is no need to stream from the cloud.

HT1491 Can my purchases be shared with another apple id?

Can my purchases be shared with another apple id?

No. Home Sharing allows you to share purchases with another device. It does not allow sharing with another Apple ID. From the instructions:
you will need to Turn on Home Sharing on each computer using the same Apple ID.
In any case, that's not what adolf wanted to do. He wanted to transfer apps purchased under an old iTunes Store account to a new one so he could update the apps using the new account, and that cannot be done.

Why do you ask in the iWeb forum?

I want to bring over music from my iTunes library on iMac to an ipod touch with another apple id. please help

I want to bring over music from my iTunes library on iMac to an ipod touch with another apple id. please help. Is this possible. In former versions of itunes this was posible. I can't find the solution is iTunes 11

Perhaps those apps require a newer version of iOS than is compatible with your iPod.

My itunes comes up with this when i try to download purchased songs: this devise is already associated with an apple id. this devise can be used with another apple id in 82 days. i need help to see if i can fix this problem please.

i have an iphone 4s i signed out of my itunes on the devise and my friend signed herself into ituned but i signed her out an myself back in but my purchased songs and tones cannot download. it gives me a message of:this device is already associated with an apple id. this device can be used with another apple id in 82 days! is there anyway for me to fix this or override something. im freaking out!!

Sorry: once a device has been authorised for a particular iTunes account you can't change it to another until 90 days have passed. This is to prevent people cirumventing the restrictions of purchases to one account from consteantly swopping between accounts. You will have to wait for the 82 remaining days, and there is no workaround.

This computer is already associated with another Apple ID

Hi people!
Please excuse me if I described anything not exactly as it may appear on English systems but Spanish is my language of choice.
At home, my boyfriend and me share a Macbook Pro and we have a user account for each one. In each account, each of us has an Apple ID with their music or apps purchased. Problem is, I can't login and download my purchases or use iTunes Match because the computer is already linked to another Apple ID, I guess that is my boyfriend's account.
Can't we use our respective Apple ID in our user accounts? If I wait for 38 days and then I use my account, will he be able to use his, or will he be "punished" like me? This is cumbersome. I've tried to solve this with Apple Support but never could finally arrive to a solution with them. Thanks for any hints.

iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 - In connection with, "When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID." "Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days." - Additionally instructions for "Removing an associated device or computer from an Apple ID"
It's done that way because the media owners who can tell Apple what to do don't want people going around to their friends' houses and downloading all their iTunes music on the friends' computers too. If you're going to share a computer make sure you avoid doing the things listed above that will cause this message to appear. Keep a backup of your purchases on an external drive.

Can't download previously purchased music to new iPad "Associated with another Apple ID"

Hi There,
I have a brand new iPad Air and can see my previous purchases in the Music app. But when I try to download (by clicking the download/cloud icon) I get a confusing error:
"This device is already associated with an Apple ID".
The thing is, this is a brand new device - how could it be associated with another Apple ID?
The only other Apple ID on the device is the one used for iCloud - could this be confusing things?
Does anyone know how to get music onto the device?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Ben

Thanks Amish,
Dang it, I accidently marked your question as the answer from the email notifcation and can't change it.
I purchased it from Apple and have been in contact with them for over a week. Unfortuantely, they insist I'm logged in using differnt accounts despite me sending screen shots to the contrary.
I'm posting here becauase I'm getting nowhere with Apple - it's like they're stonewalling or the person I'm dealing with (Russ) is assuming I'm an idiot.
I've been using Apple products for 25 years, look after an OSX server (have also maintained a Microsoft SBS server) so am quite familiar with computers and user accounts.
But this situation has me stmped - both in terms of why it doesn't work, and why I can't get Russ to understand that I'm not logged in using a different Apple ID.
He keeps senindg me links to iTunes terms and conditions - I can't listen to music purchased from Apple on my Apple dvices also purchased from Apple. How can iTunes Ts & Cs justify that?
I've decided to a go a differnt route and report a problem via iTunes and see if I get a more helpful support guy.

ITunes Match problem with Mastered for iTunes tracks

My question is, has anyone solved the problem I'm describing here?
My wife bought an album (David Bowie, The Next Day, it's great), as a Mastered for iTunes album, under her Apple ID. I copied the album to my computer using Home Sharing. My computer is authorized with both of our Apple IDs.
I have iTunes Match activated on my Apple ID. This album uploaded - didn't match - to iTunes. I assume that this is because Apple is trying to keep people from getting the Mastered for iTunes version of things and refuses to match that version if it's not already associated with the Apple ID. This seems silly, but so be it.
Now I try to listen on an iOS device and see more strange behavior:
- The uploaded tracks stream fine, but
- They will not download. No matter what network I'm on, no matter the time of day, there's always an error in downloading them.
I'd be interested to know if anyone has any insight into what's going on; how to get around it; or just if you've seen the same.

Scott Shuchart wrote:
So I infer that - to keep the "no free upgrades to Mastered for iTunes" policy with the technical limitation that iTunes cannot perfectly match to the same master - it has a policy not to match to Mastered for iTunes unless the track was purchased with the right Apple ID. This seems like a silly but obvious solution to those two constraints. No?
No, there is no such policy. I know this because I was recently able to get Eric Clapton's new album Old Sock matched to the Mastered for iTunes version. All the downloaded tracks have the logo on them. Same goes for the matched AC/DC tracks I have downoaded. All are Mastered for iTunes. These are my rips from CD which were matched.
This is completely different from if someone has an album that was previously bought from the iTunes Store, such as Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, which then gets re-released in a remastered version (Mastered for ITunes). Of course we don't get a free upgrade to that version. We have to buy it if we want it. It is just as if you bought the album on CD, then a remastered version is released. You have to buy the CD again.
As you are talking about an iTunes Store purchase, of course you can't re-rip it, since it was never ripped from CD in the first place. But you might want to read the iTS TOS which can be read here: http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html
But, to get back to the original question, this does seem to be an issue with this particular album for whatever reason.
