ITunes MATCH fails to load on iPhone4 after updating to IOS 6

iTunes MATCH is failing to fully load (display) on 1 of my 2 iPhone4 telephones after updating both to IOS 6.  (My wife and I share the iTunes MATCH library using the same ID).
I have tried Signing Out and back In to iTunes, plus I have tried turning iTunes MATCH On & Off for this one iPhone 4 device, but the iTunes MATCH still fails to load. 
The furtherest it ever gets is to display my previous Playlists and my Artists, Albums, etc that are in the cloud ...but the actual songs that are in the MATCH cloud never ever appear at all ...even after waiting hours! 
The IOS 6 update seemed to work fine for both of our iPhone version 4 phones, but like I said above, only 1 of the phones is able to play music from iTunes MATCH now.  This previous worked fine under IOS 5.1 for almost a year. 
We also own an Apple TV 2nd generation and an iMAC with OS X 10.6.x, ...and those 2 device are also able play music that we have stored in the iTunes MATCH cloud with No Problem. 
The issue seems to be with only this one phone. 
Has anyone else experienced this?  Does anyone have a suggested fix for this?

This helped me my repair my iPhone4's locally corrupted iTunes library (which calls my iTunes Match account) for all my music and music-video collection!  It took all of 5 minutes to repair. 
1. Google/download/install iExplorer (free program).
2. Plug in iPad or iPhone first, then open iExplorer.
3. Delete the iPad\Media\iTunes_Control folder's 3 Media SQL files.
4. Turn on iCloud/match in iPhone's (iPad's) iOS settings, which replaced the iPads music library with iCloud
A big THANK YOU to Michael Allbritton for pointing my in the direction of this solution! 
Finally a note to Apple:
   You will have to incorporate a way for users to view and self-repair the inner workings of their appliances if you wish to continue to sucessfully compete in this market ...remember what happened to Nokia for not forseeing the touch screen display many years ago!  I would never expect my Mother, my young wife or even my teenage son to download something like "iExplorer" and use it to delete 3 corrupted database files; therefore, dear Apple, please incorporate the self-diagnosis and repair functionality offered by an iPhone Explorer type system into your iTunes software ...or something similar to that!  Get with the program!

  • Itunes Match not working on Iphone 4 after update to IOS 5.1

    Hello,
    Itunes Match has never been an issue for me in the past.  After I updated to IOS 5.1, I accessed my music app and noticed that Itunes Match was only showing artists that started with the letter "A" And "B".  So I turned match off, turned it back on and now itunes match shows a picture of a cloud and a progress bar.  the bar takes hours to move about half way, and then the app will just tell me that I don't have any music and I can dowloand music from itunes. 
    My wife is not having any issues with match on her iphone 4 and my ipad 2 running IOS 5.1 is also not having any issues.
    I have tried signing in and out of the Itunes store, turning on and off Itunes match, doing a hard reboot of the phone, I have rest and deleted everything on my phone and restored from a icloud back up.  I even tried to see if I could delete the music app data by going under settings/general/usage.....but the music app says it has "no data".
    This is Very frustrating for me, and I can't figure out what i can do to make my phone load my music match library again.  I thank you for any suggestions/help that you may have in advance!

    Exactly the same ting has happened to me over te past few days with my ipad2... I too resorted to setting my ipad2 up as a new device again to get match working... There is definitely something screwy happening on 5.1 I think... It was fine till I updated

  • ITunes Match fails to match recently ripped CD. Can I avoid matching this CD?

    I have a CD from a band that is not available on iTunes that I've loaded to my MacBook Pro. As expected iTunes Match can't match this album. As a result, iTunes Match fails to proceed past the third step of the matching process and continously loops. How can I stop this album from being part of the match process?

    Hi,
    What format have you ripped the CD? There are problems with some ALAC and AIFF files.
    If the cd is in your iTunes library, there is no way of stopping match process. Once cd has been uploaded there is a workaround to make remove the tracks from the cloud and not your library.
    However, to resolve your current problem you may need to delete the tracks.

  • ITunes Match crashes when loading playlists on Apple TV

    After the update to OS 6.1.0 on my 2nd gen Apple TV, iTunes Match won't load any playlists. When attempting to load, the device crashes and drops me back to the home screen. This ONLY happens with playlists. All other attempts to play back music works fine.
    I have reset the device and installed the latest update. All other devices can play playlists from iTunes Match.

    Update
    I tried the Apple TV in my second house. Same problem.
    Apple: wake up!
    We should perhaps gather some facts.
    I have 31 playlists; two of them are doubled by sync issues.
    I also have 43 intelligent playlist whereof 5 of them are doubled ones with the number "1" added to the name.

  • Sync session failed to start in iTunes after updated to iOS 7

    Sync session failed to start in iTunes after updated to iOS 7

    Restart your computer
    While your computer is restarting, clear all of the applications from the background on your iPhone. You can do this by pushing the home button twice and swiping the programs off the screen by pushing them upwards.
    After you are done doing that, restart your phone.
    Wait about 10 seconds or so and turn your phone back on. By the time you get your phone back on your computer should be completly restarted and ready to go.
    When your phone is back on, plug it into your computer. This should automatically bring up your Itunes, you may get another pop up that says autoplay, you can close that out. That's it. I hope it helps and good luck

    Hello fortcoins,
    It may help to turn iTunes Match off, then back on.
    Windows: While holding down the shift key, choose Store > Turn Off iTunes Match.
    Turn iTunes Match on by selecting Store > Turn On iTunes Match.

  • HT201210 After updating to IOS 6 I no longer had playlist in music, I turned on Match and now I have 2 of every playlist

    after updating to IOS 6, I went out to mow my yard and listen to my music via bluetooth headset as I have done all summer.  But to my surprise there was no longer a playlist not one!!!!!   so after mowing and listening to one album I tried turning on Match and now I have 2 of every playlist.
    I realize that there will be a few glitches when upgrading a new system.  I would like to see Apple come up with a simple way to contact Apple to let them know about these new problems.  This is only one of them and there are a few more on the iphone and even more on the newest ipad.
    for instance I buy 64gb iphones and ipads, because I do not want to stream my photos or music I do not always have access to wifi or cellular.  Plus with over 5,000 songs and 15,000 photos it takes to long so I want to store them and us sync to save changes.  I have a very advanced setup. with outdoor entertainment around the pool "covered" in the party room, in the house, in the RV outside the RV. The list goes on.  I want my picturesand music stored!!!! not all Streamed.  when ever we try to stream pictures or music for one of my parties there are freezes and hangups.  Not something I like when I have 60- 100 friends over.  Storeing all this to a device should be easy when I USB it to my IMAC!!!! also when I take pictures around my party and then the Apple TV fails to keep up streaming I plug the iphone into a source to the stereo's and the **** thing starts sending all my photo stream through the wifi to the computer and now it will not play music or photos until it is finished.   Here I go again with all these guest saying  I thought you said apple was better!!!!!  we need to be able to select when we want sync to happen to prevent this with out turning off icoud or phot stream.

    I am back with an update. I turned off Match on both the ipad and the iphone 5. By doing so I was able to sync my Iphone and ipad to itunes and store the music on my devices rather than the slow streaming.  So far this has fixed my problems with the iphone I have all my music, playlist, most of the album art and so on.  But the ipad is a different story.  I have the music and artist but not one playlist  I am sure Apple will have an upgrade soon that will address these issues they are usually very good about this. 
    Now have any of you experienced another problem that has existed as long as I have used faces in Aperture.
    I have over 200 faces and they are organized a-z problem is I have this going on A-Z folowed by a few that start over A-Z followed by another few A-Z and again a 4th time A-Z.  Imagine how difficult it is while I am showing someone the great features of my iphone, ipad and imac.  Which I do talk highly of all the time.  But how do I explain that even though their name starts with a or b or what ever they are not important enough to me to be in the first list of A-Z or even the 2nd or 3rd list of A-Z someohow they are in the 4th section of the list!!!!
    I have managed to get the Imac to fix this but for some reason the IOS devices do not.   Any ideas?
    Thanks Al

    Reset your iPhone.  Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
    If you continue to have issues, try downloading the apps to iTunes on your computer, then sync your iPhone using iTunes.

  • Syching my iphone4 after updating to ios6 and now half my photos aren't showing up in my phone.

    syching my iphone4 after updating to ios6 and now half my photos aren't showing up in my phone.

    Did you restore from backup on iTunes or did you use iCloud?
    Did you sync with iTunes? Is iTunes section for photos checked to sync all your photo locations?
    Also, with photo streaming sometimes you need to switch from Album to photo stream to see some photos.
    If your photos are on your computer still, they can be added back. if not and you depended solely on iCloud, then they may be gone.

    Hello babichanjacob
    Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.
