    Ive had to reboot my Apple TV before I had the option to enable iTunes Match but it did not see my music library. I tried a second reboot and it still says my music library is empty. Its been several days and I can access my library on a Windows PC, my Mac and my iPad so Im all synced up, my Apple TV apparently just wants to be stubborn.

  • How do I update itunes match on my iphone 6?

    I have iTunes match. When I upload songs on my computer it never updates on my phone unless I uncheck iTunes match then check it back on. Which is the worst. Please tell me there's an alternative?

    Where is the picture located, and how did it get there? Also, do you have iCloud Photo Library turned on or off? Depending on your answers, you would need to do different things.
    Cheers,

  • How do i update iTunes match?

    I started matching my library and had to stop.  How do I get the match going again?

    On your phone, try swiping across the song's listing.  If a red "delete" button appears, tap it.
    Here's Apple's help article, but it only talks about songs that appear in your iTunes library.

  • How can I tell if an RSS Feed has been updated? In Safari I can see the total number of feed updates in the menu bar. Can't figure out how to do that in Firefox.

    See question.

    You will find that the number of audiobook titles available without DRM is much smaller than the number of titles available with it. eMusic probably has the largest collection of MP3 format audiobooks, which are not wrapped in DRM, but their catalog is a pale shadow of Audible's collection.
    The source of your ire is the publishers. They are the ones who insist on DRM, rather than Apple or Audible. (Though there are also policies at those vendors, which make it difficult or impossible for authors who choose to go without DRM (such as Cory Doctorow) to offer their titles without DRM. I suspect that it’s the fault of the publication system, but who knows for sure.)
    Personally, I don't care about the DRM. Audible titles play just fine on my iPhone, and that's the only place I play them, so I never notice it. Someday that might change, and then maybe I'll be angry. But that seems low probability.

  • Why can I not select multiple items in Muse using Shift Click after installing update?

    I am trying to select multiple items on a Muse page by holding shift and clicking each items. This has been pretty much my standard method across Adobe products but after updating Muse it will no longer let me do this. Am I missing something or did this method change with the update?

    It seems to be happening mostly for Hotmail account.  I just rebooted and tested two accounts.  Only in Hotmail now.

  • How do I get all history when I click on it in the menu bar? My history shows just one day, and bookmarks folders.

    What shows up when I click on History is a window displaying a folder for history and a folder for bookmarks. In the history folder is listed only the current tabs that are open, that's all. The other folder is bookmarks, and it shows subfolders for all bookmarks, every one of them. The prior complete display disappeared just recently, a week or so ago.

    Are your using the '''Show All History''' menu item?

  • How do I restore a previous session when the Firefox homepage does NOT have the "restore" button and it is grayed out in the menu? menu

    My Firefox homepage had a "Restore Previous Session" button but it has disappeared. SO when my Firefox crashes I lose all my tabs and tab groups, and this is very inconvenient. I have checked through all the "Options" seeing if there is some button there to enable this feature, but to no avail. I am frustrated as after a crash I spend hours revisiting all my links in my History menu to reset my tabs. Can you help?

    In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
    *do not clear the Browsing History
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Clear+Recent+History

    Sorry I can't help you myself, I am still using Firefox 28 while I try to Customize the 29-plus versions without resorting to using CTR. I have tried it, but I prefer doing my own "cobbles" rather than rely upon an extension that "restores" much what I didn't like about Firefox 4.0 thru 28 and overrides what I do like about Australis. IOW, CTR 'fixes' things about 90% opposite of what I would do, if I had the talent to do a "retro extension".
    ''IMO, the orange Firefox button was the worst thing that Mozilla has ever done to Firefox. The Menu bar worked fine before Firefox 4 came out and still does, it just doesn't have be showing all the time = Compact Menu and its' derivatives over the years was the 'ticket' for me starting from before Firefox was even named Firefox.''

  • I can't see how to update itunes match.!

    I tryed to follow instuctions: go to store in Itunes then to update itunes match. But no such option exists. further more how often is it supposed to update automaticly anyway????

    Ok like said before there was no option to update ITM in top bar store menu, just turn on ITM which did nothing!. So I went to store in the iTunes page (on the left)once IT store was open clicked on ITM on the right and I get an ad to sell me ITM (which I already bought) or ad my computer, which I'v done many time before. Periodically the option to update ITM in the top menu disappears.! ? Further more don't you have a sertain number of device you can add for ITM ?????

  • Update itunes match info on the ipad. How?

    This is on an iPad (iOS 7.1.2).  I use iTunes Match (25,000 song limit account) where all my contents are MP3's from my CD's, either matched, or uploaded.  My library is large (24900+ tracks).
    The contents of my iTunes Match library are not displaying properly.  If I choose "Albums", the listing on the iPad is not sorted alphabetically.  This happens when "Group by Album Artist" is on or off.
    The display and management of the music contents is correct on my other iOS device (iPhone 5) and in iTunes.
    I have turned iTunes Match off and back on on the iPad; deleted all music contents ion the iPad Settings General, Usage; updated iTunes Match in iTunes Store menu.  The display of the music contents is still fragmented and not correct on the iPad.
    Any idea how to fix this?

    No, you are not tecnically "streaming" music--althought it appears like that.  Basically your iTunes Match makes your library available online.  Whichever music you wish to listen to is downloaded to your device for playback.  My understanding of Streaming is playback of media file not permanently stored on your local drive or device (i.e. Netflix).  So you can't have total access to 25GB of music on a 16GB device, without first deleting some songs on your device and then downloading another set of songs.  (Deleting songs on your device does not delete it from iCloud).
