ITune Match - at the end of one year subscription

So they say that if you pay $24.99/yr for iTune match, any music you ripped from other CD will sync with songs on the iTune database (if the songs exist) and upgrades the song to iTune quality and downloads song info. My question is do all songs revert back to original quality and lose song info from iTune after 1 yr subscription and you discontinue paying for iTune Match, or once songs are synced with iTune, are they pernamently upgraded without needing to continuously paying $24.99/yr? This is actually important for many mac users who own lots of CDs. Any help?

Once the songs are downloaded, they are yours.
If you do not renew iTunes Match, you will not be able to redownload the songs but hte ones you have already downloaded are still on your computer.
The main purpose of iTunes Match is to serve as a backup.

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 have 2 iCloud accts. One is old iTunes acct, the other is a MobileMe acct. I bought extra space and iTunes Match on the iCloud acct using my original iTunes ID. Now my phone will not let me turn on iTunes match cuz it defaults to the MobileMe iCloud ID.

I have 2 iCloud accounts. One is my original Itunes acct apple ID, the other is a MobileMe acct ID. I bought extra space in icloud on the original apple ID, and I bought Itunes Match on the original apple ID. My default icloud acct on my Mac is the original ID, but for some reason my contacts are sync'd to the MobileMe ID, and when I try to turn Itunes Match 'on' my Iphone, it defaults to the MobileMe acct, but my Itunes Match is purchased on the original apple ID. Help!

one on my MacBook Pro
That's not an Apple ID. That is your admin account which you can view in System Preferencs > Accounts or Users & Groups.
If I switch from MobileMe to iCloud on my Mac (under the apple logo) will my devices work and sync in iCloud. I have no idea how I go 2 IDs
Just use your current Apple ID when you setup your iCloud account that you use for your devices.

ITunes match for two libraries on one computer

Whenever I try to enable iTunes Match in the latest iTunes beta, it says "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID." I cannot proceed with scanning my library. In the other account, with their Apple ID, it works.
There are two user accounts on our Mac. Does this mean that iTunes Match is linked to the device itself, and not the unique Apple IDs/user accounts? This means in a family that shares a computer, with unique and separate iTunes libraries within each user account, only one person in the family can use iTunes Match (but strangely, both can pay for it).
Any ideas?

I wonder if the following would work...
For both accounts and itunes libraries, use the same apple id.   This should work on the same machine.
Unfortunately, that means the libraries between the two accounts would 'merge' oncd match does its thing and be the same under that one id in the cloud.
For purchases, one of the accounts would have to sign in with their ID in the apple store which would log them out of match. Logging out of match means you only have access to the files you have downloaded from the cloud or where already in the library.    I think your purchased music would be fine and once downloaded to the library, when you log back into match would be picked up and placed in the iCloud library.
From what I can guess, you would have to be stuck with one shared library and this may not be what you want.
They didn't really make match to be a shared among accounts and instead locked it to the machine - probably because of the music licenses. With purchased/drm music and video thouugh, they can be shared across 5 appleid's. Very confusing. You have 10 devices on one id for match and auto/redownload of purcahses and you have 5 appleid's you can share content with.
I've got 4 machines, 5 apple id's, and one match account so far. Only two machines are using match so far (mine and a server), and just using homesharing for the others for now.   Maybe when I'm bored I'll try to see if there is a way to activate match on all the other machines and also work with the other non-match Apple ID's. In a way, home sharing may be easier for the users of those ID's to pull from the master library matched from the server.

Apple TV mirroring issues even with Mac mini,airport extreme bought at the end of last year,and an iPad 2

Apple TV mirroring issues even with Mac mini,airport extreme bought at the end of last year,and an iPad 2

I have the same issue with ATV3 and iPhone 4S. Everything works properly, no buffering issues when watching netflix, vimeo, youtube BUT when I try mirroring even a small 15sec iPhone movie it stutters and buffers and results to a choppy playback..same with larger mp4 files such as 1-1.5GB, buffers forever and never plays, I just re-encoded the same movie to 700MB and plays perfectly..
Why Apple, why?..so close..I can accept the bigger movie files issue, but not being able to playback properly an iPhone movie is funny..I recorded a movie with lower bitrate through Filmic Pro (Economy mode, up to 16Mbps)
and plays properly.
Is there an upcoming software update going to solve the problem or is it hardware related and therefore not fixable.
Please don't reply with a network related answer, by 2012 we know how to set up our networks and everything else runs flawlessly.
I'll apreciate a fast answer, we love Apple, but if it can't play an iphone movie (or a high quality movie from iTunes) it's just not up to my standards.
Thanks again.

Did you create these notes in the iPad notes App ... I assume?
This support article will explain how you can restore from a backup - which is what you have to do in order to have any chance of recovering your note.
How to backup and restore from a backup
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
But you have to remember, that you will lose any of the notes that you have taken since the date of the last backup. If you synced your iPad last week, then you will lose a whole week of current notes - or whatever notes you have created since your last backup. When you restore from a backup - you restore everything in that backup onto the iPad - that was on the iPad on the time and date of the backup.
If you backup every day, then all of your notes should be recoverable from the backup - except for any notes that you took since you last backed up. There is no foolproof way to recover everything once you start taking more notes or creating new documents or whatever that you do in an app unless you are syncing those notes with iCloud and backing up all of the time or unless the app is set to sync with iCloud as you work on the files - like in Pages, Numbers or Keynote - Apple's iWorks apps.
If you decide to restore from an iTunes backup you should turn off at sync before you try restoring because iTunes will want to backup your iPad right away when you plug it in and you will lose your old or last backup.

Does iTunes match remove the songs from my local computer.

I hope I ask this right?
My Itunes libaray is stored on my iMac
I'm not really looking to get my entire library onto my IOS devices. I have them all set up manually to my liking:)
However I would like to have my entire libarary avaliable to be used on my Macbook Air. I travel to different offices from day to day but all are connected to WiFi. The Air while amazing does have limited space on it so it would be great if I could just listen to my library through the cloud and not have to use up space on the Air.
My concern with this is I also want to be able to manage my songs manually on my IOS Devices. Will I still be able to sync my iPhone to my iMac at home and just add one or two songs?
Are the songs on my iMac still there? . When I play songs on my iMac are they playing from the harddrive or from the cloud? Its not really an issue but just so I better understand how it works.....imagine if I was concerned about the amount of data I was using each month.(from my internet provider). Do the songs still play from my iMac desktop or are they playing from the cloud?
I guess it all comes down to this. iTunes works perfect for me right now. When I add songs to my iMac, when I sync to iPhone or iPad. I really only want this so I can listen from the cloud on my Air.....but if it changes how I do everything else. I'm less sure I want this.
Appreciate the help:)

Simply do not enable iTunes Match on the iOS devices and syncing behavior will not change.

Yes. The files on the computer are not touched.

Enable iTM on the MBA and you will be able to stream from the cloud as long as you have a network connection.

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.

HT4913 If the music library on my iPhone will be deleted when I enable iTunes Match, does that mean that I will not be able to access that music library when I temporarily turn off iTunes Match on the iPhone, e.g., when on the subway & can't connect to Ma

I have subscribed to iTunes Match and have employed it to listen to music on my Macbook Air and iMac. On these devices it seems to operate by streaming music to the device rather than deleting the device's current iTunes library and downloading songs as they are played from iTunes Match. Not so on the iPhone as far as I can tell. Consequently, to date I have not activated iTunes Match on my iPhone 4S. I presently have 40-50GB's of music on my iPhone, sync'd from my iTunes music library on my Macbook Air. I am concerned that if I enable iTunes Match on my iPhone I will lose the music library already on my iPhone, as Apple seems to be representing that once iTunes Match is enabled on the iPhone the current music library, carefully compiled, will be gone from the iPhone forever (unless I later re-sync it from the iTunes library on my laptop), that it will be deleted. Although this would free up a lot of space on my iPhone, I bought the 64GB phone just so that I could keep a lot of music on it and accessible at all times. I am concerned that in certain instances, say if I am in the subway and want to listen to music on my iPhone but don't have internet access below ground, that I won't have much music to listen to, only those songs previously played and thus downloaded onto the phone from iMatch, presenting me witrh a rather limited choice of music to play instead of the 40-50GB's I now have to choose from. Apple seems to have presented me with the choice of the lesser of 2 evils: i) enable iTunes Match and lose the music library already on the iPhone in exchange for access to iTunes Match and a greater number of songs than I can fit onto the phone (my library exceeds the phone's capacity) when a Cloud connection is available or ii) don't enable iTunes match and limit myself to only those songs, a considerable portion of my library to be sure but not all of it, that I can fit in the phone's storage space, i.e., the 40-50 GB's I have on there now. If I choose the latter course, each time I purchase an album I'll have to delete another album to make room for it on the phone. Apple thus offers me a sort of Hobson's choice, bad all the way around. Do I have this right? The Apple techs I've spoken to don't seem to have a handle on the "deletion" aspect of enabling iTunes Match on the iPhone. Right now, I'm too scared of "losing" my iPhone music library to enable iTunes Match on the iPhone. [Possible work-around, albeit a pain in the ***: I suppose that I can enable iTunes Match on the iPhone and spend the next couple of weeks 24/7 downloading songs from my iTunes Match library back onto the phone to replace at least some of those deleted when Match was enabled, thereby rebuilding a proxy library on the phone itself to play when I'm stuck in a tunnel between Brooklyn and Manhattan while maintaining access to thee larger iTunes Match library, more music than my phone will hold, once we come back into the light and my Cloud connection is restored.] Comments, suggestions will be appreciated. Thank you.
