I can't access my new playlist on my iPhone 4s when using iTunes Match
I recently spent 5 hours combing through my entire digital music collection to compile a playlist of all the songs I want to hear right now. It is 696 songs and 1.7 days long. Both my iTunes on my computer and my iPhone 4s have the latest version of the available software. I cannot see or listen to my new playlist on my iPhone. I have done the following (with no success):
1) I have updated iTunes Match.
2) I have powered off and powered on my iPhone
3) I have disable and re-enabled Match on my iPhone.
4) I have disable Match on my iPhone, connected my iPhone to my computer via a USB cord, transfered my playlist that way, then re-enabled Match on my iPhone. Still, I do not have access to my playlist. While this did have the desired the affect of putting the playlist on my iPhone, I then could not download the songs that were in the playlist onto my iPhone without Match or performing the laborous task of transfering each song individually via the USB cord. Not to mention the fact that I play for Match and expect it to work.
5) I have disabled Match on my iPhone, powered off and powered on my iPhone. Then, I re-enabled Match on my iPhone.
None of these actions have resulted in the desired occurance. I have read through the community and when I find someone who said they have fixed the problem, the person either has a minimal grasp of the English language and I do not understand that person or I have already completed the action that the person recommends.
I feel as though, since I pay for this service, that iTunes, i.e. Apple, should address my problem directly, rather than rely on the support of a community of people who are up the same creek, lacking a tool for forward momentum.
I somewhat feel as though I, and all others in a like-situation, should receive a refund for Match or, at the very least, some sort of compensation for time during which it has caused problems.
Additionally, I refuse to ever purchase an apple product again. They are not the company of quality that they used to be and we are all now just paying top dollar for an subpar product.
Additionally, when trouble shooting, and you disable iTunes Match on an iOS device you cannot simply re-enable it immediately. You must launch the Music app and let the content clear out before re-enabling the service.

I can't access my game center on my iphone..when i open the game center, it just 'LOADING' but nothing happen...can sum1 help me?(& in 1 of the game,i check my frenlist & only found 1 friend but im not sure who that person is)
.local indicates local activity by the computer host Williams-macbook-pro.local=hostname@domain . The UID of 501 is the standard UID of a local computer administrator.
Copy and paste this little script in your terminal:
if [ "SSH_CONNECTION ]; then
echo I am remote
else
echo I am local
fi
A return of "i am local" ensures there is no remote connection to your machine (through SSH).
In the future, to avoid remote entry, I would recommend not posting your IP address though. -
Empty playlists when using iTunes match
Most of my playlists are showing up empty when I use iTunes Match on my second Mac. The playlists all work fine on my devices (ipod and ipad), it's just on my work Mac that this is happening. All smart playlists work. Randomly, two of my other created playlists are working but all of the rest show up empty with zero items in them. I've tried reseting Itunes match. Nothing is working to fix the problem. Any suggestions? This is driving me crazy.
Hi,
Try holding shift key whilst turning off match. Close itunes and relaunch, turn on match and select add this computer.Does this help?

I have logged in with Itunes Match on my work PC, but after 'gathering information about itunes' Itunes Match says the maximum songs that can be uploaded that were not purchased in itunes is 25000 and iMatch stops. All I want to do is have access and the ability to download songs that iMatch has already uploaded to iCloud from my home PC.
Please HelpPlace that first folder of photos that you synced to the iPad within the main folder of photos that you sync from and select them to sync again. You can place any number of subfolders within the main folder that you sync from and select those folders to sync. Just "tick"(select) the folders in the photos tab in iTunes.

How to rename a playlist on my Iphone? (without using ITunes)
There has to be a possibility to rename a playlist without connecting my phone with my pc I do not want to add a new playlist...
It doesn't appear that you can, which makes sense in that if you're syncing with iTunes, you'll have to rename it on the computer you're syncing with.

Can I delete songs from my computer to free up space, using iTunes match?
Hi,
I love iTunes match, because it brings my entire music library to all my mobile devices without being limited by internal storage space.
But, now I have the problem that my computer is running out of free HDD space due to my gigantic itunes library.
So, my question is: Can I free up hard drive space by simply deleting files from my computer, and rely on iTunes Match to download/stream those songs that I want to play after I've deleted them? It should work, right?
This operation clearly relies on iCloud to host all of my songs, where iCloud becomes the 'master repository', rather than my computer.
Has anyone been able to successfully operationlize this?
Many thanks,
MarkActually, further to my last reply, I just played a song that wasnt located on my computer any longer (I deleted the file but left it in iCloud when prompted by iTunes). The song has an iCloud icon next to it. I double clicked it and it started playing. When I opened up the info windon on this song, the Location says "iCould". So, that leads me to believe that indeed we can delete the files from our master computer, and, stream them or download them from iCloud! How great is this? Can anyone coroborate this? Cheers, Mark

can I run adobe master collection in a windows partition on a basic mbp 13" with only the intel chipset?
I want to install 16 gb ram but I don't think I can change the lack of video card. I wanted this basic machine because it has fairly long battery life. I don't need or want retina at this time. My model is the mid 2012 model. I am running the adobe collection for mac, I want to run the windows versions. Is it possible? What is the most ram I could access using something like fusion 5, assuming I could get fusion 5 to work? would it refuse to run because of the intel chipset and lack of video card?
If I'm wrong and there is a way to add a video card to this model, could some version of fusion and windows 7 access more than 2 gb operating ram?
What cost would I be incurring, and would it be cheaper to buy a windows laptop with more ram than I could access via a virtual machine?...
Fusion should work on your machine and if you put 16 GB of RAM in (see http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_160 0MHz_SDRAM), Fusion can access a good portion of that. Also, in a Virtual Machine, the guest OS is presented with Fusion's video card emulation, not what's in hardware on your Mac. Of course, finding Windows 7 now that Win 8 has been released could take some doing and the Win 8 Pro upgrade price is supposed to jump to $200 the end of the month. Add that to the price of Fusion and the extra RAM and you're beginning to get into the realm of low end real PC's.
As to cross platform, I assume you're aware of BootCamp (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1461). -
Is there a way I can see which playlists a song is in, when using iTunes?
Is there a way to quickly view which playlists a tune is in?
Right-click (or control-click) on a track and go to the "Show In Playlist" command.

I am a group exercise instructor and rely heavily on my playlists. My old phone is an iphone 4s and I just bought an Iphone 6. I also have a macbook where I keep my itunes account, but I create all my playlists on my phone. I need to transfer those playlists from my old iphone into itunes in my computer so that I can then add them to my new iphone 6. However, none of the playlists on my iphone appear when I connect to my macbook. I have read other threads where the suggestion was to attach the old phone to itunes, find the phone in itunes and click the little arrow to the left to show the playlists. Then right click on the playlist and export it, saving it to the desktop, to then import it into itunes. However, in my case, the playlists do not show up when the phone is connected to itunes. I have clicked on the little arrow and all I get is "music", "purchased", etc., but none of my playlists. I'm sure some years back I probably deleted something in my itunes library and now none of my playlists show. Please help me. I would hate to have to recreate all of my playlists. Thank you!
I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question. Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing. I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
My playlists "ARE" in my iphone 4s. They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer.
When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes. I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes: Music, Movies, TV shows, books. That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS" but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone. Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this. I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer -

After updating my OS, I couldn't get onto my gamecenter account. I created a new nickname to see what would happen. Now I can only access my new nickname, but not my old one. However, my old account has all my scores! I want to delete the new nickname and re-access my old (i.e., original) nickname. Interestingly, my friends can still see my old nickname.
Any suggestions would be VERY appreciated! Thanks.This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
This is a picture of what it looks like now:

As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
any way to get around that? -
Cannot add a new playlist to my iphone - Help!!!
I am not able to add a new playlist to my iphone. I recently changed my computer, and when I choose the option to manually manage my music, I get a message that my phone is synced to a different itunes library, and if I sync to this library my content will be erased. Obviously I did not continue. I authorized this computer (which I had not done before), but I still cannot add a new playlist. What can I do?
I found this solution on a gogle discussion site, and it works.
"In iTunes, right click the playlist on your iPhone then select "export" to export the playlist as a .txt file (I have 3GS with iOS5).
Then still in iTunes, select "File, Library, Import Playlist", navigate to and open the .txt file, and it will appear in the iTunes sidebar.
I've tried to do this numerous times before. Sorry if this is old news but I was so pleased I wanted to share it."
After creating the playlists in your itunes library, sync your phone with the settings to manually manage your music (which will delete all the music from your phone), then drag the playlists back to your iphone. You can then start manually managing music on your phone. -
I can not access icloud on my replacement device iphone 4s
i can not access icloud on my replacement device iphone 4s
The previous iPhone has to be removed from your iTunes account.
Additionally the device must be totally reset back to original use.
On new device log in with your Apple id and password to register the replacement device.
You can also remove the older device at http://www.icloud.com
