I don't have my iTunes Match music on my new iPad mini although I switched it on

I got a new iPad mini. Now I wanted to check my music that's on iTunes Match. But it wouldn't show up on the new device although iTunes Match is switched on.
What can I do?

Hi, I had the exact same problem, I got it working on my iPhone 5 eventually after having to turn on Use Data Roaming (simple eh).
So I tried for ages to get it to work on my new ipad mini, I couldn't for the life of me find out how as it is a wi-if only and I couldn't turn on cellular data.
So this might help you. Very simply I closed down my iPod app on my ipad, then went into settings and turned off my wi-fi. I then opened the iPod app to realise all my music was there (but greyed out and I couldn't play it). So I went and turned on my wi-fi again and it was all there ready to play!
Delightful and I hope this helps you!

Use iPod Touch 4th gen iTunes backup to setup a new iPad Mini 1 - issues

Hi all,
I've just used my Pod Touch 4th gen iTunes backup to setup a new iPad Mini 1 but none of the apps were installed on the iPad mini. Only the default apps are installed.
None of the photos from the camera roll were installed either, apart from a few 'screen shots' I have taken.
iPod Touch is iOS 6.1.6 and the iPad mini is 8.1
There was a warning advising that some of the apps in the iPod backup might not be compatible with the iPad.
If it makes a difference, I'm using one Apple ID for the App store and another one for iCloud. When I was prompted for the Apple ID during setup on the Mini, I entered the iCloud ID.
Interestingly, when I went into the App store on the Mini it showed the ID I use for that rather than the iCloud one, which seemed good.
Is this what I should expect to happen in this situation or am I doing something wrong ?
Many thanks. Mark

I've managed to get the apps loaded without having to do it manualy !! :-)
It was a case of RTFM - I forgot to do a 'Sync' after restoring the 4G's iTunes backup into the iPad.
Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support
For some unknown reason, the Camera Roll images and Videos still weren't restored to the new device.
This is not too much of an issue because I've exported them out of the 4G using the awesome 'Photo Sync' app. Despite it's name it actually does an 'export'and not a sync, which I think makes image management easier on the PC side

I don't have the "install" button to download on my ipad mini...

Hello everybody!
I just bought a new Ipad mini with ios7. I can't install any apps since the "install" button does not appear in the App Store.
Thank you for your help!

Restrictions is typically right under Passcode (Settings > General > Passcode).
Is your iPad Mini brand new - out of the box? Is it somehow associated with a school or employer?
It is very odd that you don't see restrictions.

I can not download my purchased music to my new iPad Mini

I have a number of purchased songs in iTunes but I have been unable to download them to my new iPad Mini. The songs all show in the 'Purchased' area of iTunes and have a little cloud next to them. I click on the cloud and the songs appear to download OK but do not appear on the iPad Mini.
On checking further it would appear that I can't purchase new songs from iTunes.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

On the other Macs go to iTunes Preferences/Store/Automatic Downloads/Select: Music
This should work if all the other Macs are logged into iTunes with the same Apple ID you bought the music with.

HT204074 I cannot download Itunes Match music to my new PC running Windows 8

I have a new PC running windows 8 and I cannot download my music from Itunes Match. I have been through all the help topics and my settings appear to be ok. It will download a couple of songs but then just stop. In order to download another I have to sign out, sign back in, update itunes match and start again. I have to do this about every 3 songs. So its gonna take some time to download my 5000 songs!

Hi fishtactic,
If you are having issues downloading more than a few songs at a time from iTunes Match, you may want to try the troubleshooting steps in the following article:

My macbook pro 10.5.8 cannot download the iTunes required to sync my new iPad mini. What can I do?

Is there a way that I can download iTunes 10.7 or any iTunes which will be compatible with my iPad mini that I am able to download on my macbook pro 10.5.8? I want to sync my music from my macbook pro, but I am denied because i don't have the latest version of iTunes which is not downloadable on my mac because it requires macbook 10.6.8 or newer.

You need to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.6 and then run Software Update.

Why can't I download apps I have to pay for on to my new iPad Mini. I have had an Apple id for my iPhone for years and have downloaded app to it, no problems. When I try to download apps to my new iPad Mini, it tells me my billing info has to be confirmed. After confirming with same info that is already there it tells me to contact support, no help up to this point.

Could the credit card be expired?
Beyond that, what you need to do is contact iTunes support, they can tell you exactly what is wrong, none of us here can do that.
In the lower right corner of this page is a 'contact us' link. Click on that and you'll see a page full of info and links, one of which is iTunes support.

I have ipad 3 & daughter new ipad mini with RD. She has nano and I have classic. Her nano syncs to her own laptop and mine to my desktop. I bought iTunes Match and authorised both iPads and both iPods. I have now enabled iTunes Match in my ipad and was warned it would replace my library. I pressed "enable" and now the 1800 songs in my library are gone and all I've got is the music my daughter bought from iTunes. What have I done wrong and how can I get my songs back. When I bought iTunes Match I got 1 e-mail confirming subscription and another providing receipt but nothing else no links etc. any assistance would be appreciated.

You can only upload music from your computer's iTunes, you can't do it from an iOS device - when you subscribe to iTunes Match on your computer it should have scanned your music library on it and matched or uploaded any non-iTunes purchased music to it.
Do you have copies of those tracks anywhere e.g. on an iOS device or on your backup of your downloads/library ? If they are iTunes purchases then they should be in the cloud. If they were copied from CDs or bought from other sources then if they are only on an iOS device (i.e. you don't have them on a backup) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

I have the same problem on my Windows 7 computer. In the right-click menu for a song one option is DELETE. However when I click that option the next window is to HIDE instead of DELETE. Apple, please help us with this.

I have installed iTunes Match on my iPhone & laptop. May I now safely delete the music files from my phone and still access my music from the phone? Thanks

Figured it out. Must sign out from Itunes and then back in and it works.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You cannot use iCloud.com on a mobile device, only on a computer. Documents in iCloud are available via the apps themselves on a mobile device.

I have downloaded itunes match but i cant play some music on my pc but i can on my iphone

I have downloaded itunes match. I can play all my music on my iphone but when i try to play it from my pc, it tells me it cannot locate the original files. Even though most are things i have purchased from itunes.
They are now mean to be in the cloud but dont seem to be for my pc.

Question about managing itunes match music in ios8

In ios7 I was able to keep track of how much music was being downloaded via itunes match as it streamed from my phone, and I could see how much space was being used as I listen to music. I'm not seeing the same ability in ios8 - I assume all the music I "stream" that gets downloaded to my device but isn't showing up in music usage is going into "other" - but I don't see a way to determine how much space this is actually using on my phone other than guessing by how many gigs "other" uses when I connect to itunes. But I don't see a way to see this directly on my phone. Neither by looking at how much space is left on my phone (this doesn't seem to update by playing itunes match music), or my looking at the actual music files on my phone, which are only showing songs that I physically downloaded vs. playing from the cloud.
Also, can I delete all the music on my phone that is stored from playing on itunes match but I didn't actually hit the download button for? In ios7 I was able to have the cached music automatically go away by turning itunes match off - I got mixed results when I did this yesterday and had to reformat my phone to clear out the "other" space - and I"m just guessing at this point that this is why my other got so large.
Any clarity around how this is handled in ios8 vs ios7 would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there.
I have the same problem, and its annoying. In iOS7 I was able to delete all the music that i played via streaming, and I play music like that 98% of yhe time. In iOS 8 i can only delete music that I have explicitly download but the streamed one seems to be hide.
The only solution to this, that is a waste of time is to turn of "show all music", see which music is already downloaded, downloads manually and the erase it.
Hope Apple release and update to fix this problems
