HT4914 How much does iTunes Match cost?

I can't find a price

I believe it's $24.99 per year.
Launch iTunes then from the iTunes menu bar click Store > Turn on iTunes Match
You'll see the subscription price in that window.

What does iTunes match do to my indexing scheme for classical music?

Over the years I developed a fair-sized collection of classical music CDs. It took time to decide on a scheme to pigeon-hole them into iTunes, but I did a fair job of putting them in by genre (Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, etc.).
Then I standardized the composer names. The problem was that the online CD library was not consistent. Sometimes Mendelssohn was entered as F. Mendelssohn, other times as Mendelssohn, Felix, etc.
Additional problems arise when you want to find all piano concertos in a minor key or symphonies that are scored for triple winds.
Anyone still reading is probably a musician and may understand these idiosyncrasies of classical music taxonomy. What happens when there are alternate endings or even movements (e.g., Mahler)? What happens when there are different orchestrators of the same piece (e.g., Pictures at an Exhibition)? What happens when you have multiple recordings of the same piece either played by different artists or the same artist at different times in his/her life (Gould)?
So, as much as I'm interested in iTunes Match, I'm concerned that it may not provide enough information about the music it finds and/or will screw up the index system I have created for my roughly 1000 CDs.
Can anyone shed some light on how iTunes Match works with classical music?
Thank you.

I'm wondering if anyone can give advice about how to move a classical CD library to iTunes match cloud storage starting from scratch -- that is to say, nothing is presently in iTunes or on computer yet.
And has anyone has tried Amazon cloud music for the same function, is it easier?
I have a few hundred CDs, 99% classical, and have never ripped or digitized them. So my library is entirely on the original CDs, and I dread spending hundreds of hours loading them one by one into a computer drive, copying them, and then having iTunes match try to upload and "match" it.
However, some of my CDs date to the 1980s and although they have no scratches (I care for them very gently) they seem to be corroding. So much for a lifetime of music.
I don't even have a CD/DVD on my Mac so I will have to buy a Superdrive -- or could I use a networked CD/DVD from an old Windows PC?
So, does anyone know if:
(1) can iTunes match recognize a CD as soon as its inserted, if it is indeed a match, save time?
(2) If not, for those who have "ripped" to iTunes many classical CDs, what are some tips so that tracks are handled properly -- what format for lossless copying, how to ensure the different movements of a symphony are not shuffled, operas don't have weird pauses between tracks, etc.; and what format so that playback is as close to original quality as possible
(3) Are there any 3rd party programs that will save time so I don't have to type in all the info -- composer, orchestra, conductor, lead performer... I'd like all that in the library on the Mac but with me having to take as little time as possible to type it in. Any way to take a PDF of the liner note booklet and "link" the scan to the electronic version of the disc that's in the cloud iTunes match so I could keep the liner notes online too? Any 3rd party programs that can take the barcode from the back of the disc and match with an already-online copy of the liner notes so I don't have to spend hours scanning booklets?
(4) Any services where for a reasonable sum I can ship my CDs and have someone else take care of all this?
Would appreciate any pointers. Thanks!

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.

HT4914 Why does iTunes Match not really match some songs in my library? Any thoughts?

I have noticed that many songs in my library are really not upgraded to 256, even though they say Matched. I thought Matched was supposed to also mean "We found your song and upgraded it to 256." Am I wrong? Thanks.

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.

What is iTunes Match and how does it work?

What is iTunes Match and how does it work? I have several tunes on my computer that do not show complete. The source of these tunes are from my own CDs.

iTunes match - http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/ - see FAQ at end too
Basically it looks at the music you have in iTunes. If it sees the equivalent on the iTunes Store site it does nothing, but it makes that copy accessible to you to download. If you have music it doesn't it will upload a version from your computer to the site that only you can access from anywhere online.
In your case if you have incomplete tracks it will not fix them. It does some kind of audio fingerprinting to make sure you aren't just feeding it a bunch of 60s demonstration cuts and trying to get whole tracks back.

Hello Karen,
Yes, enabling iTunes Match the current music library on the phone will be deleted.
From: iTunes: How to add a computer or iOS device to iTunes Match
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4913
When enabling iTunes Match on your iOS device, the music library on your iOS device will be deleted and then replaced with your music in iCloud.
The music is stored on the cloud and streamed to your device unless you choose to download it on the phone.
Here is some additional info on how it works:

HT4914 Does itunes match store video ??

Does itunes match allow you to store video and games downloaded from App Store in icloud ??

Sorry but iTunes Match does not cover music videos. It has something to do with the agreement between Apple and the music record companies. I hope this answered your question.

How detailed does iTunes Match scan?

Above mentioned question is meant in the following way.
I had many files converted to 320kbit/s already a few years ago. On some of them you can clearly hear that the quality is not that good, btw the CD had scratches and there are skips and so on.
Does iTunes Match also find out about a bad auditory quality even if the rate is 320kbit/s or does it just check what the rate is?
The question came up when I saw that iTunes searches for bad files and upgrades them to 256kbit/s, which is yet less than my rate.
Thanks for any qualification.

The quality of matched music is going to equal to that produced from a good CD rip whether its 256 Kbps or 320 Kbps. Most people will not be able to tell the difference.
If you have good 320 Kbps rip then you don't need to upgrade. If the tracks are matched, you will have access to your music on your iOS devices at 256 Kbps. Tracks uploaded will be as per original file - 320 kpbs will play as 320 kbps.
If you have tracks that have a bit rate lower than 256 Kbps and are match, you can delete original and download 256 Kbps version.
As mentioned in previous post, you are unlikely to get a match where the original has faults. If you do get a match, you can upgrade it to the matched version.

TS4124 What causes iTunes Match, on an iOS device, to lose the cloud icon next to each song?

What causes iTunes Match, on an iOS device, to lose the cloud icon next to each song. On my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S one cloud shows up for a whole album to tap and download a whole album but the ones next to the songs are no longer there. No songs will delete from my phone once downloaded from the cloud by sliding my finger to the left over the song and tapping delete. Instead it just plays the song when I try to delete it. To delete my music from my device I have to go in to settings and delete all the music. This worked fine for the first week and then one day the cloud status next to each undownloaded song disappeared and started doing this.

Try sync Music from iTune to your iPad again.

I replaced my iPhone with a Galaxy 5 and am not receiving all of my text messages. The sales person told me to remove my phone number from iTunes to stop this from happening. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages?

I replaced my iPhone with a Samsung Galaxy5 and I am not receiving all of my text messages now. The rep at the store told me to go to iTunes and take my phone # off of the account and that would fix the problem. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages anyway?

You need to remove your phone number from the iMessage system.

Itemization does not match cost component split

Hi,
I need your help or could you please shed some light as to how to fix .
A new Overhead was created, in order to add expenses to the pricing of the product. For it a variant of different pricing to which is used currently was created, and so for maintain a historic one of the information.
In addition, in the cost component Structure an adjustment of the configuration was carried out, this was done because the previous the cost component Structure contained 18 elements of costs, which the most of the elements were specified as fixed and variable costs, therefore the system only permitted the addition of 2 more elements (SAP only permits 20 elements of fixed and variable costs), nevertheless was necessary to create a total of 23 elements of costs. For it the previous elements have to be modified and to change some elements as variable costs, specifically the elements corresponding to the accounts of materials. using tcode OKTZ
The addition of 5 more elements of costs, corresponding to overhead elements, where the type 41 costs classes were configured from the plan of surcharge created.
After carrying out the changes and to transport them the client of production, when i execute the T-code ck13n an inconsistency in the previous pricings was generated, because the cost component Structure was modified and the the following one Nº message was showed: CK869 " Mat.XXX in plant XXX: itemization does not match cost component split, the report of itemization shows different values to the reports of Costed Mutilevel BOM and of Cost Components. Additionally to the error shown by the system, also is observed that to the Cost Components report a cost in the new elements of overhead was added, even when the calculation of previous cost did not contain the determination of overhead.
In order to fix the error, I modified the cost component structure as it was before and the created another cost component structure with the required changes requested by the client specifying that it should start to be current this year. However after that change the error message nºCK869 continue: Mat. XXX in plant XXX: itemization does not match cost component split. Adding to that error message, the cost of the finished product changes with reference to the calculus of the previous product after modified the configuration and that is because the cost of the semifinished product is not being taken the values of the row material, and it is appearing with cost 0 and the only value that is taking on the matter are the costs of the activities types.

If you want the message to go away then you need to mark and releasse the estimate. However, there is no requirement that you do this. The message you are getting is an informational message only. You can continue without re-costing the item. If you do re-cost the material the new cost estimate will reflect and changes you've made to the components, so there is a good chance you will get a different value with the new estimate. So if that's ok, go ahead and mark and release the new estimate.

Does iTunes match need to locate the actual files or just see its record in your library database? I am currently traveling in US and I have US and Australian iTunes accounts. But all my music files are on a hard drive in Australia.

Does iTunes match need to locate the actual files or just see its record in your library database? I am currently traveling in US and I have US and Australian iTunes accounts. But all my music files are on a hard drive in Australia. Can I start using itunes music match while I am travelling without the actual music files attached to my itunes?

In your situation I strongly recommend you read over that KB article. The international iTunes Stores are not cross-compatible.
My understanding of how it would work is that when activating iTunes Match on your US Store account, any songs you have in your iTunes Library that were purchased from the AUS Store account will NOT be matched. As I understand it, those files will be uploaded (which means you need the files on a local HDD). I also do not think it is possible to have iTunes Match active on more than one store ID on the same computer. But since iTunes Match is not available internationally yet, that point is moot for the moment.
To be honest you might want to wait until the service is available internationally so you can guage how will it will serve you.
