HT5637 what is a "match" and why would I pay $24.99 for one?

how do i get credit for this?  I don't even know what it is? thanks

iTunes match allows you to store music copied from your CDs and not purchased from iTunes in the cloud, which allows you to then access it on computer's iTunes and/or your iOS devices - from http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/ :
With iTunes in the Cloud, the music you buy from the iTunes Store automatically appears on all your devices.1 And for music you haven’t purchased from iTunes, iTunes Match is the perfect solution. iTunes Match is built right into iTunes on your computer and the Music app on your iOS devices.2 It lets you store your entire collection in iCloud, even music you’ve imported from CDs or purchased somewhere other than iTunes. When it’s in iCloud, it’s available on all your devices. So you can enjoy all your music anywhere, anytime — on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, PC, or Apple TV.
Not sure what you mean by get credit for it.

  • Why would you allow firefox to update computer web-browsers if you have an idea that it will no longer work after the update? And why would you not include instructions for, how to fix the problem? Help Please! Can I go back to the old one?

    Mozilla, like many other software companies, thoroughly test their software before releasing it to the public and I'm sure that no problem you are having is intentional.
    I do not work for Mozilla but I do have experience of releasing software for public usage.
    Firefox has no way of knowing what other software is already on your computer and with millions of combinations it isn't always possible to test for every scenario.
    You can go back to the old version of Firefox but that won't always solve your problem.
    The web site below tells you how:

  • What are smart mailboxes and why do i need both smart and "normal" ones?

    What are smart mailboxes and why do I need both smart and "normal" mailboxes?

    Hi Kingoftypos,
    Thanks for that clarification. So, now it appears that the ultimate purpose of a Smart Mailbox is to point to all emails that meet the criteria in a single place, so if they are spread among several mailboxes, you will be able to see them all together. Here is an article from Apple that describes it:
    A Smart Mailbox displays in one location messages that are stored in other mailboxes, so you don’t have to move messages between mailboxes. The messages displayed by a Smart Mailbox are based on criteria you define, and are automatically updated to include new messages that match your criteria. For example, you might create a Smart Mailbox that displays all messages found in all mailboxes from a specific sender.
    If you change a message in a Smart Mailbox, such as marking the message as read or unread, or moving or deleting the message, the change is reflected in the mailbox where the message is actually stored.
    So, adam, I would think that, if you had mail going to a lot of different places, and wanted to be able to see a particular set of those in a single place, you would use a smart mailbox. Maybe use the rules to direct your mail to different places to start with, but a smart mailbox to bring a set of common ones all together into a single smart mailbox?
    Maybe you have Rules move your Amazon mail to an Amazon folder and your Apple mail to an Apple folder, but then you have a Smart Mailbox that contains any mail that has the word "Receipt" in the Subject line?
    Just a thought....
    Cheers,

  • What Is Memeo Backup and why is it on my MacBook Pro w/ Snow Leopard?

    What Is Memeo Backup and why is it on my MacBook Pro w/ Snow Leopard?  Does it slow down my Mac? Seems like someting has slowed down my Downloads, Updates, Backups, etc. & I don't know how to locate the source or how to fix. Any Wizards avail to share some Wisdom? I am using Ethernet Cable/Port for Internet Connection, I Use a Seagate  FreeAgent Go Flex Ultra-Portable Drive w/ Seagate's Firewire Adapter Cable.

    If this is really Memeo Backup and you want to get rid of it for a better backup program like Carbon Copy Cloner the the following shows all the stuff that Memeo Backup installer installs (based on Memeo Backup 2.5.141 which I found with a google search and downloaded):
    The primary file to disable Memeo Backup would be that file in LaunchDaemons.  Remove it and reboot and the rest is just taking up disk space. 

  • Why would you charge me $40 for a supposedly free upgrade?Have been a faithful verizon customer for years went in for myfree upgrade and paid for a iphone and protectve cover now I have to pay a fee for a free service? I will start switching my devices to

    Why would you charge me$40 for a free upgrade? I chose a iPhone and paid you the difference plus protective cover, now you want to charge  me a fee for activating a number I have had for years!!!  I have been a faithful Verizon customer for years but I will switch companies when my contracts are up or I can get a buy out from another company, your free upgrade is not free and is a false advertisement as far as I'm concerned

    However you had already stated you did not choose a "free upgrade", but paid the difference for an iPhone. So much for your "free upgrade". Additionally, I was not aware Verizon was in the business of giving away "free service"(s)?????? Purchasing a "free" or "reduced price" phone IS NOT a free service. You sign a contract in exchange for receiving that benefit. There is an upgrade fee along with that service you are contracted to complete or you will be charged an early termination fee(ETF), so this IS NOT a free service.
    Yes, you have a choice to go with another provider which ALSO charges an upgrade fee OR charges you full retail value for your phone. So much for a "free upgrade" there.
    AT&T = upgrade fee
    Sprint = upgrade fee
    T-Mobile = no upgrade fee but must pay full retail cost for the phone
    For what it is worth, you would not have had to pay an upgrade fee had you simply paid full retail cost for your phone OR purchased it with Edge at full retail cost. Depending on your calling plan and data allowance, you may have even ended up paying less for your phone had you done so. That is why a little research before you make a purchase can go a long way.
    I know it is cheaper for me to pay full retail for a phone than to purchase a discounted device in exchange for signing a contract.
    Good luck with the new provider.

  • What is application memory and why does my macbook pro keep running out of it?

    what is application memory and why does my macbook pro keep running out of it?

    There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory (that is, the memory chips on the logic board) and virtual memory (one or more files on the startup volume.) That activity is relatively slow and causes the whole system to be less responsive. It can happen for two reasons:
              A long-running process with a memory leak (a kind of bug)
              Not enough memory for your usage pattern
    Please note that if the cause is a memory leak, installing more memory will not help. That's likely if you already have more than 4 GB of memory. Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
    These instructions are for OS X 10.9 and later. Some details may be slightly different for earlier versions of OS X.
    When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the View menu, if it's not already selected. Select the Memory tab. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
              View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
    from the menu bar.
    If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
    The processes named "Safari Web Content" render web pages for Safari. They use a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider them prime suspects.
    Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet4" or "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing software. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. Empty the print queues in the Printers & Scanners preference pane (which has a slightly different name in each recent version of OS X.) If you don't use an HP printer, reset the printing system. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
    "Wired" memory should be a small part of the total. That memory is not swapped, but it makes less physical memory available which may then result in swapping. If you have a lot of wired memory, that's usually an indication of a memory leak in a third-party program that modifies the operating system at a low level. Ask for guidance in that case.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
    The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
    sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
    where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

  • What are Layers? And why do I need them?

    WHAT ARE LAYERS? AND WHY DO I NEED THEM?
    Layers are an essential part of Photoshop. With Layers you can separate pictures or design elements from each other, as if they are stacked on pieces of glass. With all elements separate, you can move or change them independent of each other.
    Layers are used for many tasks, including improving your images' color or tone; merging two or more images in one Photoshop file; and creating Web designs and animations.

    WORKING WITH LAYERS - VIDEO 11:16 min.
    KEY CONCEPT: LAYER
    PHOTOSHOP/ LAYERS BASICS - Reference Guide

    After creating the mask and applying adjustment, you can also adjust and change layer mask using selection tools or, the most common way, using brush tools.
    To have a more accurate preview of what are you doing, Alt + click on the layer mask thumbnail to show the mask in the image area.
    At this point, you will have a layer mask on your screen in large view, so it is easy to fine tune it, but you wont see how that affects your image.
    To seean  instant preview how changes on layer mask affects the adjustments, use New Window for (name of your image) from Window > Arrange.

  • When I click on a picture or a link, to take a closer look, I get a blank screen and it says at the top search bookmarks and history, at the bottom it says 'stopped' - what is this problem and why is it happening

    when I click on a link to complete a form, or a link to take a closer look at a picture, I get a blank screen and it says at the top 'search bookmarks and history', at the bottom it says 'stopped' - what is this problem and why is it happening ?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • What is cookies.sqlite and why does it slow the start up of mozilla by a minute or so. I found it and deleted it,fixed the problem, but it reappears eveery time I restart mozilla.

    what is cookies.sqlite and why does it slow the start up of mozilla by a minute or so. I found it and deleted it,fixed the problem, but it reappears every time I restart mozilla.

    AVG reports these sqlite cookies each time firefox starts. they usually belong to tribalfusion or some other tracker. How do I block them in the first place. I thought firefox is a safe browser. Did not have this problem until I upgraded to 3.6.

  • What is 'Backing up' and why does it take so long even if my library is identical to my ipod?

    I've just plugged by ipod touch into the computer to sync it and it keeps telling me the ipod contains stuff that isnt in my library (eventhough my library is identical to the content on the ipod) and that if i dont back up i will lose this stuff, i clicked back up and now it has been backing up for over 2 hours! what is it doing and why is it taking so long?

    TC has to check to see which files need to be backed up. So its going thru the file directory and looking for any changes since the last backup. Do you have a lot of files on your Mac to check? Or are they just a small number but very large. If its the former, then that might be the culprit.

  • What is flash player and why do i have to download it ?

    My computer won't show any videos on safari because it says I need to update flash player. What is flash player and why do i have to download it? I thought flash player comes with your computer.

    1. A browser plugin for Flash content.
    2. Apple no longer bundles it with Mac OS X.

    Hi,
    For maintenance.

    Check your Applications folder. If you don't want the app, just drag it to the Trash.
    IMHO you do not need this utility. Your Mac will do maintenance for you.

  • What is "Directory Service" and why does it "use up 194%" ?

    What is "Directory Service" and why does it "use up 194%" on my istat CPU app monitor?
    Ever since I installed Leopard I've noticed this happening more and more - especially when I install an external hard drive or unplug my ethernet line - this is plainly weird and never happened under Tiger - the temperature shoots up to 84° also - I always to a restart to get rid of it but it's kind of worrying....anybody have any ideas?
    Message was edited by: Host

    Had this happen myself.
    It does have something to do with Spotlight/searching. Should go away after a while, or so I have heard from other users, 'cause it hasn't stopped driving me and my fan mad yet.
    Am going to have my MacBook index and follow-up on indexing and whatever else it feels is necessary to finally allow me to search in peace over the weekend while locking it away where I can't hear it.
    Hopefully that does the trick.
    If it wasn't for things working better/faster and most things looking better I might actually consider taking Leopard off again ...
