ICloud Status shows purchases as Matched?

Of my 5200 purchases most are classed as Matched under iCloud Status. Any way to reset and have them as Purchases again? It screws up Complete my Album.... And maybe other things as well....

The iTunes Store can correctly show you what has been purchased.
Ensure you have a secure backup.
Delete Song files from library and iCloud.
Download again from iTunes Store purchased set.
Sign-out of iTunes Store. Restart iTunes, Sign in to Store, start iTunes Match, allow process to complete.
It should now correctly show purchased Songs.

To upload music files to iCloud, must I purchase iTunes Match, or can I upload it to my original 5GB?

I've not yet used my iCloud (as I can't upload LibreOffice files to it), but was wanting to clear up space on the Macbook by uploading my music files to it. Do I need to purchase iTunes Match to do this, or will my original 5GB be enough? Thanks in advance.

Without iTunes match you can download previously purchased items whenever you want, they are not stored in iCloud, they are local. With iTunes Match you can download practically everything that is in iTunes, Match files are stored in the cloud but are not part of the storage (5G) in iCloud. You can delete iTunes Match files from the local machine and they will still be available to play.
This would be exactly the same if you did not have iCloud, they are not connected.

HT204406 iCloud status shows error on over half of the songs in my music library. why?

iCloudstatus shows "error" on over half of the songs in my music library after 2 uploads. why?

Thank you. My two questions have now shifted.
1. You are right-- I have been unsure as to whether Homesharing or Remote was my answer, and I did set up Homesharing on both my Mac and iPad. It still appears that my music comes out of the Mac, only. How can i use Homesharing to allow the iPad to play music?
2. And I went back to check again, and saw that somehow, the songs that my iPad cannot locate are also somehow missing now on the Mac, even though they used to be accessible. My entire music library is stored on an external hard drive, which I used to connect to my Mac with USB. I just got a new router and now have the music hard drive connected via USB to IT instead of the Mac. I would bet that this is why so much of my library is no longer accessible-- I must have used different settings to save some of my songs, and the hard drive's new location shows that. Can anyone help me make my entire music library playable ? Thanks again

Icloud status says my tv purchased tv shows are "ineligible"

How can I make my tv shows appaer as "purchased" in the icloud status column?

If you are asking why TV shows can't be added to iTunes Match, it's because iTunes Match is only for music and music videos.

Why does Match list the iCloud status of iTunes purchased songs as "Exceeded Limit"?

Why does Match list the iCloud status of iTunes purchased songs as "Exceeded Limit"?

because you have loaded over 25,000 songs to the icloud library. to find out exactly what is in icloud from itunes match follow these directions to create a blank itunes library and load only the itunes match songs from icloud.
1. You will need to know the location of your iTunes library for later, the default is under music under your username. If its not there find it and remember where it is for later.
2. Then you have to exit iTunes and create a new empty library. To do this hold the option key when you open iTunes. Choose create Library on the pop up dialogue. Create the library anywhere on your system, you can delete the entire library once you have completed your iCloud changes.
3. When the library opens in iTunes it will be empty. Click on iTunes Match and click the start button. after it finishes all of the songs on your iCloud match account will be listed under music.
if you want to delete some or all songs from icloud so you can re-sync itunes match to show the songs in your current library fowwow this.
4. you can select up to 1000 at a time and delete them.
5. when you have deleted what you want, close iTunes and open again holding the option key and navigate to your original library, usually in the music folder under your username. You should be all set and can click iTunes match again and your account will be populated with the ones in your current library.
6. You can navigate to the temp library you created in finder and delete it as it is no longer needed.

HT204406 I purchased an album from itunes, and put it in a playlist. icloud status lists all the songs as purchased, and when I click on "Update itunes Match", this playlist will not update. There is a cloud to the right of the playlist name.

I purchased an album from the itunes store, and put it in a playlist. icloud status listed all the songs as purchased, instead of the usual "Waiting". When I clicked on "Update itunes Match", everything updated except this playlist. There is a cloud to the right of the playlist name. This has never happened before.
Any ideas?

I deleted the songs from my desktop (iMac), then I used itunes match to reload the songs back on my desktop from my laptop. When they reappeared on my desktop, then I right-clicked on the songs and clicked on the option to add to icloud. This however did not work, and they just duplicated into icloud, but they were "greyed out" and unuseable. I hope I'm explaining myself clearly? In other words, the songs seem to be trying to go into the cloud, but they are greyed out in my library and cannot download. It is as if they are ghosts? My songs do play fine when I transfer them via itunes match, and everything appears normal. They just won't transfer via the cloud. As I said before, every other song in my library always work fine via the could, but only the songs off this one album that I bought from itunes in 07' will not work???

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.

ITunes Match changing status on purchased songs

I hope some one can help. The other day I found out that my iTunes Match was off. When I turned on I started doing the same thing it did when I first used it. I didn't mind at moment. Later I notice that some of the songs I purchased previously started showing up as uploaded instead of purchased or matched. Beside that everytime I add a new song to my library they never get matched even thought it was purchased on the iTunes Store. This all happen after I upgrade the iTunes to 11.0.2. Now iTunes doesn't give the option of deleting songs from the iCloud instead now they get hide. How can I fix this? Is there a way of erasing all uploaded songs from the iCloud? I understand that I can't delete all songs from iCloud since the matched ones actually come straight from Apple. But what about the uploded ones?
Thanks

Hi,
If you want to try to get purchased status back, delete the tracks from your library and move to trash, select hide in cloud.
Now go to the iTunes Store, select purchased and download the tracks again. If the tracks were previously protected AAC, they may no longer be available in store and wil be uploaded.

I have iOS 5 and I have purchased iTunes match, but the iCloud icon in iPad settings is not activated what do I need to do to get it to operate

ICloud Status view option not showing

I have iTunes Match working on my iMac but when I select under View Options>iCloud Status nothing happens to the columns. I thought a column would appear showing me the iCloud status of my songs. The View Options>iCloud Download column does appear in my Playlist view, but not in my Library Music view. Any way to fix this, or I am doing something wrong?

I found the answer. I was viewing my Music Library in List view. When I changed it to View>Album List the columns appeared. This may be a bug.

ITunes Match leaves ripped songs in multiple iCloud status states

Itunes Match seems to have made a complete mess of my Library. I had to restart match several times, and in the end it looked like it was about to complete but when I came back to it, I found that is had started the whole matching process again. Now I see most of my songs ripped from CD duplicated in multiple iCloud states. Most of my ripped songs appear duplicated as Uploaded and also as greyed out Waiting status. Some appear duplicated as Uploaded and Matched. Some of my music is duplicated as both in Matched state, one with the iCloud download option and other without. As far as I can tell, nearly all my own ripped tracks appear as duplicates with different iClouds status in one form or another. Purchased tracks from iTunes are fine with no duplicates. What a mess!
I seems that during these multiple attempts to match iCloud was getting different results each time and I ended up with a hodgepodge of duplicates. I have tried quitting iTunes and coming back in. I have updated match, it went quickly and made no changes. I have turned off match and then put it back on (prompted to add the computer) - no change.   How do I clean out this mess?
Note: I worked with a separate iTunes Library to to the match. My main library contains songs in both AAC and Apple Lossless formats. I first tried matching that library and realized that it was going to give me duplicates. So I created a new empty Library and deleted my iCloud tracks to reset it. Then I opened a custom library with just my AAC format files to do the match. This seemed to work although as I noted it got stock a couple times and then seemed to repeat the match process in the end. Note these multiple libraries point to the same media files. Fortunately it doesn't look like I have lost any original tracks, but the display is very messy with all the duplicates.
Are these iCloud states stored locally where I could delete a file and then reopen the library I wish to match and update the matches to refresh the iCloud status and hopefully clear out all the duplicate listings? I am hoping I don't need to start over since this took two days to do. But if I do, what must be done to start from a clean state. In addition to clearing out iCloud via deleting from an empty library, are there other local files that need to be purged?

Don't feel bad -- I'm running iTM on Windows XP and it's clearly not listed as supported either.       Are some of those dups greyed out? I've had that issue if I tried to match and then killed the process before it completed. If so, you might need to clear all them out before you re-run.   In other words, if you create a new library and see a bunch of iCloud stuff when you enable iTM, you might want to go through and clean up iCloud before you attempt any more local matching on your end.
The only real problem I see with 10.5.8 (or XP for that matter) is that if you contact Apple directly, they might suggest upgrading as the first step since it's not listed as supported.   Unfortunately it is what it is and Apple, like any other large tech company has to set EOL dates for certain OS's.

Purchase Order has approved but Status show as Unapproved

Dear All Experts,
I have a Purchase Order need to go throught approval procedure. The Purchase Order has approved by user and add into system and printed out. When second time, open the same Purchase Order, the status show "Unapproved" but the Purchase Order windows header name show Purchase Order [Approved], this make user unable to copy to GRPO. I have try to restore stored procedures in SAP B1, it does not make any changes. The user is using SAP B1 2007A SP0 PL49. Please Advise.

Hi Angie
the purchase order once approved has to be added on to the system after approval if u say that u have added the purchase order after it got approved then that seems to be a concern for that u need to contact ur sap partner or if u are a partner then u need to get in touch with sap to resolve the isssue as it could be because of problem with ur database
but before that please be sure off that u are using the correct way and have sucessfully added the documnt apon approval.
Regards,
Manish

Why is the extra icloud storage I purchased a month ago, not showing in icloud?

Why is the extra icloud storage I purchased a month ago, not showing in cloud? I created a new apple id @icloud thinking that my regular email address wasn't acceptable for icloud but the 10 gigs I purchased are still not showing up, nor are any of the apps I've purchased showing in icloud. Why is that?

You redownlod apps by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Your purchased music, apps, books, and TV shows, as well as your Photo Stream, don’t count against the 5 GB of free storage.
You said " I created a new apple id @icloud thinking that my regular email address wasn't acceptable for icloud "
The additional storage would show up when iCloud is signed into the that new account.
To me it sounds like you should cancel the iCloud storage sinceyou seem not to rally need it.
For a full refund, contact iCloud Support within 15 days of an upgrade or within 45 days after a yearly payment. Partial refunds are available where required by law.

how do sync a book that I have added as music to itunes on my iMac and then listen to this book on my iPhone. Itunes says the icloud status is waiting so the song(book) is in the process of being matched but has not yet been processed. (no help there)

Hi,
Why are you trying to add a book as music? It will not match as this only applies to music files. It will be uploaded if the bit rate is 96 Kbps or greater.
You should change media type to audiobook and you will be able to sync by wifi or USB.
