i dumped all of my old cds onto i tunes will itunes match push them to all my devices

Hi,
iTunes match will scan your iTunes library on your computer to determine what tracks can be matched and what needs to be uploaded. Once the process has completed, you will be able to turn on match on your other devices and be able to stream or download your music.

HT4914 Can I put all my songs I've downloaded into my iTunes from CDs onto iTunes Match?

I am thinking about using the iTunes Match but I don't understand if I can upload all of my music from my of to the iTunes Match. I inadvertently have deleted all of my music trying to transfer from my iPhone 4 to my iPad 2 so after reloading all of my CDs I'm looking at this option of using the cloud. Is it easy to put music to all of your iOS devices? Will it put all of your songs on all of your devices?
Thanks, raven29

Yes
Put all the music on one computer, make sure it is authorized for all accounts, sync.

HT4914 how do i add CDs to Itunes Match without the slow uploading process?

Uploading CDs to itunes is really slow. i just want the CDs I have to be available in iTunes at the regular iTunes quality. I can't find any settings to enable this. Has anyone figured out how to?

Hello jamie,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with iTunes Match.
If iTunes determines that the songs that are on the CDs you are importing are in the iTunes Store, it will match the songs rather than uploading them. If iTunes is unable to locate the songs in the iTunes Store, it will need to upload the songs so that you can access the songs on other devices:
How iTunes Match works.
iTunes determines which songs in your collection are available in the iTunes Store. Any music with a match is automatically added to iCloud for you to listen to anytime, on any device. Since there are more than 37 million songs in the iTunes Store, chances are your music is already in iCloud.3 And for the few songs that aren’t, iTunes uploads what it can’t match (which is much faster than uploading your entire music library).
Additionally, you can force iTunes to scan your library once you upload new music to your computer:
What if I add new music to my library?
Do I need to tell iTunes Match to scan it?
No. iTunes Match will automatically rescan for content, so you don’t have to. But you can force a refresh by choosing Store > Update iTunes Match in iTunes.

I can't import my cds onto itunes

whenever i import my cds onto itunes.... the songs are all messed up and i'm pretty sure that my cds aren't the problem... the time for the songs are all messed up.... for example... one of the song's time would be 798:4354523948595 and i no that that's not the rite time... and whnever i click on the song to listen to it... it just doesn't play ne thing and it skips it and go on the the next song...

I'm not sure how to fix your problem, but you may want to post in the iTunes forum that fits your issue, as you may get more help in there.

I copied a bunch of cds onto iTunes now they disappeared

i copied a bunch of cds onto itunes then they disapeared

Greetings;
After downloading your files from the iTunes U site, you have to open the "iPod" application to play them back. You should see an iTunes U icon. Your lectures should be available by selecting that icon.
All the best...

Hi,can I burn my own cds onto itunes?

Hi,can I burn my own cds onto itunes? please

You don't "burn" CDs into iTunes.
You can copy, rip or import the music on a CD into your computer, using iTunes. iTunes will then list all the music you have on your computer.
It is possible to create a Playlist in iTunes and burn a copy of the music in that Playlist onto a CD.
So what exactly are you trying to do?

All the CD's I have imported will not play. The only music that will play is cd's I have purchased from itunes. How can I get all my albums to play, please??

ITunes Match on the iPhone 4 uses all free space

iTunes Match on the iPhone 4 uses all available space (8GB). The deactivation and reactivation does not work. The problem persists! Even unplugging the Apple ID and opening the Music app there are still all the artists, playlists, albums, etc. etc. (in the settings app music occupies 0 bytes! Have not saved songs). I have already restored three times! restarting iPhone available space returns to 8GB, opening the Music app after a few minutes iOS noted that the space is occupied.
iPad 2 and iPhone 3GS regularly work with the same Apple ID!
Any advice?

I am also reporting the same behavior. I, like billybaloney, have an almost "topped-out" iTunes Match collection (I actually have to manage keeping the matched content under the Apple 25K limit, but that is a different matter). Whenever I open Music app on my phone - 4S, iOS 7.11 - I see my available storage go to nil, and I start getting the "Storage Almost Full" messages. Which, if you have received them, also puts a significant drag on the performance of the device.
I am fully aware of the download locally (device) of "played" content, so I expect the number of songs and albums I have played to be resident on the phone after, and that requiring manual cleanup. I can see this by taking the phone offline (airplane mode, or literally out of coverage), and then opening the Music app and seeing only what is truly on the device.
I suspect that the "eater of free space" in the iTunes Match arena, for users with a large library of iCloud selections, is as simple as the iTunes library info to render for selection (not the music, but the artist, album, song and playlist lists, and the album artwork). Resetting your phone is a PITA for workaround. Something needs to be done, but I have a feeling nothing will. Or it will require an iOS update to a newer version that my devices won't be eligible to load.
Any insight or help would be great. Workarounds are only that: work arounds. Solution is what is needed.

HT4914 Ripping CDs and iTunes Match question

Once I rip a CD into iTunes and it is then uploaded to iTunes Match, can the CD be deleted from my hard drive? running out of room on the laptop...

Yes, but keep the CD on hand in case of a problem, since iTunes Match is not considered a reliable backup.
Here is the official information from Apple:
"iTunes Match is provided on an “AS IS” basis and may contain errors or inaccuracies that could cause failures, corruption or loss of data and/or information, including music, playlist, and play history, from your computer or device and from peripherals (including, without limitation, servers and other computers) connected thereto. You should back up all data and information on your computer or device and any peripherals prior to using iTunes Match."

Can't import cds onto itunes without computer crashing/shutting down

hi, everytime i try burn cd's onto itunes my computer either freezes or appears to shut itself down but seems to be still running, i had a similar problem when playing computer games, after a while the whole system would appear to shut down but would be still running (the screens black and nothing can be done until i literally turn it off at the plug then reboot). I think its the converting into "AAC" files it has problems with but im not sure. But if anyone can help me with this problem itd be great, cheers. (p.s. here are my computer specs.)

alright, ive tried importing songs that ive ripped from cds through media player onto itunes but again it crashes, i noticed when i ran the diagnostic it said "If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.

How to upload all songs from iTunes Match to the mac in one step

how to upload all songs from Match to the Mac in one step?

You have to subscribe to iTunes Match to do that. See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/.

I downloaded music from iTunes onto my iPad. I enabled iTunes Match on my PC (where most of my music is stored). When I turned on iTunes Match on iPad it said the iPad music library would be replaced.How do I use iTunes Match without losing iPad music.

I bought music from iTunes and downloaded it to my iPad. I have enabled iTunes Match on my PC (where most of my music is stored). When I turned on iTunes Match on iPad it said "iTunes Match will replace the music library" on my iPad. All of my iPad music is saved on iCloud, and some of my PC music is on iCloud. If I use iTunes Match will the music previously downloaded on my iPad be lost?
Thanks!!

You need to either sync the iPad with iTunes so it will transfer the purchases to the iTunes library or download them from the purchase history. Then let iTM work on the "new" tracks in the library then all the music will be available on the iPad.

Why is not all of my library available on itunes match via the cloud yet it appears on both my ipad and iphone library, Why is not all of my library available on itunes match via the cloud yet it appears on both my ipad and iphone library

I have set up itunes match usiing my Windows laptop and synced my iphone 5 and ipad 3 with it, but quite a few songs (albums and songs within albums) haven't synced at all. Is this a known issue? Also when I try to update match it takes forever and often tells me that the internet connection has timed out, yet I'm still surfing on other devices etc...

Hi Michael
It's not through USB - I know that that is disabled when Match is enabled. An example might deonstrate the issue better:
I can see Alabama Shakes listed in my artists view on my phone/pad library, but when I open it the songs are all greyed out and won't play. Their is no cloud symbol either. On my laptop, the songs are their and play fine, but have a cloud symbol next to them...
What do you reckon?

My father has just bought an IPOD. He wants to use my PC to get onto Itunes what is the best way to set this up.

My father has just bought an ipod classic and he wants to use my PC to download from I tunes. He is 88 and does not have one of his own.
I have a number of questions: What is the best way for me to set up my computer for to allow him to do this.
Would he always have to use my PC once he is set up. Can he download from elsewhere?
Can I sync his IPOD into my I tunes account ( Is this even legal).
Thanks for any advice.

Nick,
You will need a Windows PC with iTunes running and a working copy of Windows Media Player available on the machine. (iTunes calls WMP for the conversion from WMA). Then just drag the WMA file(s) into the iTunes Music window.
iTunes will detect it and give you the dialog shown below, to which you choose "Convert." iTunes will create a new version in the format/bitrate set in your Import preferences (MP3 in my example below), and immediately add it to your iTunes library.
The WMA original will be left in place, so you can delete it if you have no other need for it.
