ITunes match library isn't appearing on Apple TV

The only music that appears on my Apple TV are songs purchased from iTunes, anything else does not appear.  Not sure if it matters, but home sharing IS turned on, on both the Apple TV and my Macbook and I'm signed in to the same iTunes account on both...Not sure what I can do at this point to force the library to show up. 

If the problem persists:
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
Reset the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings)
Restore the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Restore)

  • Cannot see BOTH synched library AND iTunes Match library at the same time

    I ran iTunes Match on my library of MP3 files and hit the maximum allowed 25,000 song limit in my paid iTunes Match account. Then I created a new version of my local/PC iTunes library with those 25,000 MP3 songs removed, and synchronized it with my iPhone 4s running IOS7 and iTunes Match turned OFF. So far so good.
    So now I theoretically have no duplication between my 25,000 song iTunes Match library and my local iTunes library that resides on my PC.
    But even though I have the "Show All Music" setting on the phone turned on, the iTunes Match songs don't appear on my iPhone until I also turn the iTunes Match setting on. But as soon as I do that, all of the songs I synched from my local iTunes library on my PC completely disappear- having been completely replaced by my iTunes Match library. If I then turn the iTunes Match setting off again (while still leaving "Show All Music on"), the iTunes Match songs also disappear, leaving my iPhone music library completely empty. Have I misunderstood the meaning of the "Show All Music" setting, or is something malfunctioning?
    My question is: How can I make ALL of my songs (both the ones I have previously captured in ITunes Match AND the ones I synched with my PC via iTunes) appear on my iPhone at the same time?  This scenario seemed to be working just fine under IOS6 on the same iPhone.

    I had a somewhat similar experience.  When I enabled paid iTunes Match on my iPhone 5, iOS7, all of my locally-stored songs on the iPhone disappeared and remained gone even after I disabled iTunes Match on the iPhone.
    A chat session with Apple support revealed that iTunes Match will in fact supersede any synched content on the iPhone.  The suggestion from Apple support was to download on the phone all the previously-synched content via iTunes Match wireless connection.  Of course, that would take hours if not days.  And that crazy workaround won't help you because you want songs other than what you have in the Cloud.
    It appears that various members of this forum have not had this same experience.  I'm not sure what's going on here.  Usually with Apple's tight control of hardware and software these anomalies are avoided.
    And I didn't really need iTunes Match except I wanted commercial-free iTunes Radio (which I think is great, by the way).  At least for now, commercial-free radio (with a paid subscription) can be achieved only by enabling all of the iTunes Match features.  I'm not sure why Apple requires this bundling unless its part of a general push to a streaming model for everything (more revenue opportunities) as opposed to supporting local storage.

  • Need guidance - replace entire iTunes Match library with new library

    Been using iTunes as my music manager/player since 2003. Currently have about 5,000 songs which are a mix of selective CD song rips, iTunes purchases and Amazon Mp3 downloads. Lots of missing artwork, incomplete albums, wrong genres, etc. I use iTunes Match to sync across multiple Macs and iOS devices, including 3 Apple TVs. It all works OK, but I recently undertook a major project to re-rip all of my CDs/Box Sets in their entirety – about 20,000 tracks. I performed the new rips on a Mac Mini running Windows 7 in BootCamp using Roxio Creator to get a 'universal' Mp3 (256kbs) format and keep everything separate and apart from my current iTunes/Match libraries. Total library size came out around 80-85GB, saved on an external USB HDD.
    Recently had my iMac 1TB HDD replaced under Apple’s recall program and looked at it as an opportunity to totally rebuild my iTunes library from scratch using the new, complete album rips. I’ve loaded the new 80GB library onto the iMac and am currently using TuneUp Media to ‘clean up’ metadata and album artwork on the new library. I've turned off iTunes Match to isolate the iMac during this stage of the process.
    When cleanup is complete, I would like to totally replace my current iTunes Match library with the new larger library. I think the songs will sync OK, but I’ve put a lot if effort into cleaning up the album artwork and am afraid that, if I don't take some precautions, iTunes Match will overrule and mess up my new artwork when I activate it.
    My plan is to
    From the iMac, first copy (or should I export) the entire rebuilt library to an external drive as a backup, hopefully preserving all of the artwork and metadata corrections in the process (true?).
    On my MacBook Pro, copy my current Match library to a different external drive to ensure preservation of any unique tracks I may have missed in building the new library. Then delete the entire library – both local and Cloud. I should then have an empty iTunes Match library, correct?
    Then, on my iMac, activate iTunes Match and let it upload/match all the new songs/data to create a new Cloud library with all the new albums, descriptors and artwork.
    Do I need to individually deactivate Match and delete local libraries on all my other devices also, or does the total Cloud library delete I perform on my MacBook Pro then transfer to all my other registered iOS and OSX devices that have Match activated?

    Thanks bmw249. I have good news and bad news. Good news: Apple very quickly deauthorized my computers so I was able to drop the lost computer that was taking up a slot and (I suspected) confusing iTunes Match.
    The bad news is that this didn't make any difference. Nearly all the songs in my iTunes library have an iCloud status of "error" and when I turn on iTunes Match, it churns for a while before telling me that I already have 25,000 songs in the cloud and can't add any more. What I expected is for it to recognize that most of the 25K songs are the very same ones sitting in this local iTunes library. It should be substantially fewer than 25K because I also deleted 1000+ classical music pieces that I have sitting in Amazon Cloud, in hopes of freeing up space for my recently purchased and created music to be uploaded to iCloud. But no dice.
    I am now downloading ~800 songs that iTunes thinks I have only on iCloud. I then plan to figure out how to deactivate iCloud and iTunes Match on this PC so that nothing will be deleted locally when I cancel my iCloud account (it runs out in March 2013 but I assume I can cancel and deactivate the account sooner). The "convenience" of this service isn't worth the many dozens of hours of hours I have spent trying to get it to work the way Apple says it works. Amazon Cloud (also costing ~$25 a year) has a limit of something like 20 GB and no specific limit on number of songs. I buy most music there anyway and have already uploaded most of the rest, so this makes the most sense. I really like the way iTunes Match can (in theory) keep all my music sync'd and smoothly stream to my iPhone even over 3G. Amazon Cloud takes a bit more effort but does much the same thing.
    Thanks for listening. I'm assuming this is a "moderated" forum and that this post will soon be removed for my Amazon comments. 

  • HT4914 My wife and I both have iPhones and iPads. Can we both have access to the same iTunes Match library or do we have to have separate subscriptions?  Our devices are synced to the same computer and we currently download titles from the same library.

    My wife and I both have iPhones and iPads. Can we both have access to the same iTunes Match library or do we have to have separate subscriptions?  Our devices are synced to the same computer and we currently download titles from the same library.  We both use separate apple id's on our devices.

    You need to reconfigure your phone for use with your Apple ID. I suggest you restore yours as new then reconfigure it with your information and Apple ID. Be sure to disable Find My Phone, if it's enabled, before proceeding.

  • My daughter and I use the same PC. We have seperate iTunes accounts. . When I subscribed to iTunes Match all her music appeared on my iPhone. What can I do to resolve this

    My daughter and I use the same PC for downloading onto iTunes
    We have different iTunes accounts
    Mine has far less content than hers as you'd expect
    My iPhone only showed the music held in my account until I subscribed to iTunes Match At that point all her music loaded onto my iPhone
    Why? and what do I do to resolve this please?

    iTunes Match is associated with a specific Apple Id. If you use the same Id to enable iTunes Match on your IOS device you will see the same Songs.
    Once iTune Match is enabled on a device (your shared computer for example), Apple cares about not allowing another Apple Id to be associated with that same device for a period of 90 days.  Thus having more than one Apple Id associated with a single device to support multiple active iTunes Match subscriptions is simply not supported.
    Whilst your music would be combined, you can from a single device associate more than one library with iTunes Match - until you can access separate devices this is perhaps the best compromise.

  • Does canceling music library from HD also erase uploaded iTunes match library?

    I am about to sell my iMac, where all of my music library is stored. I have an iTunes match account, with all songs having been uploaded or matched. If I now delete my hard disk library, will I cause the iTunes match library to also be erased when I will reconnect from a new computer? Thank you for your help!

    It goes without saying that you should always have a backup of your content. But when you delete songs from your library while in the iTunes application, you get a confirmation window that also has a box you can check to "Delete Songs From iCloud". You would obviously want to leave this un-checked.
    If you are simply erasing your entire drive or user account as a whole, this should not affect your iCloud Library. When you turn on iTunes Match on your new machine it will display the contents of your Match Library, untouched, and will allow you to download them to your new library. Hope this helps!

  • ITunes match on 1 device, with 2 apple ID's

    My wife and I each have our own apple ID. We share the music library on 1 MacBook. I'm assuming we both need to pay the iTunes match fee for its usage, which I don't mind doing. However, are there any problems doing this? Any downsides to expect?

    Okay, last thing, then I'll stop bothering everyone . . . .
    I logged out of iTunes and logged in as my wife, using her apple ID. Both of our apple ID's are authorized for this macbook, of course. Logged in as her, I noticed in the music library that the icloud logo had disappeared from next to it,and that none of the songs had any sort of cloud logos next to them (when i signed up for itunes match, i had sent half the songs to the cloud, resulting in a cloud logo next to those songs).
    I then logged her out and logged myself back in to iTunes. I noticed the library still had no cloud logos....and thought maybe I had entered the realm of the 90-day iTunes match banishment. Anyway, I clicked on the iTunes match on the left side of the page, and it asked me if I wanted to begin iTunes match...sorta like it did the first time I began iTunes match a week ago. I responded that I did, and then had to enter my iTunes password. I'm thinking, "[bleep], I'm going to be charged again". But it didn't charge me. It began the same process of analyzing my library of songs, just as it did when originally signing up for iTunes match -- ONLY IT DID THIS PROCESS MUCH FASTER THAN THE ORIGINL TIME, taking only 10 seconds at he most. It then returned me to my music library, where everything was the way it was before--the cloud logos were back, just as before, next to the same songs as before.
    Sounds like everything is good on my end, but that my wife can't participate with iTunes match on this same computer with her separate apple ID.

  • HT4914 Can you use iTunes Match on multiple devices with different apple id's ?

    I have multiple phones with the same iTunes ID but they have different apple ID , will the iTunes Match work with all my devices ?

    I've got the latest version of iTunes & it's supposed to be able to be enabled under top panel "store" then appear down left side panel to subscribe. Which makes me think that it musn't be able to be used if you're running XP as it's not there....

  • How do I convert my iTunes Match library to MP3?

    I have several thousand AAC files that I created by importing part of my CD collection to iTunes Match. Because these files were created from my own CDs, rather than purchased as digital downloads, there is no DRM issue.
    However, I want to be able to play these files on an MP3 player. From what I understand, I can select MP3 in my import settings, which will cause future imports to be in MP3 format, but that does not affect the files I already have.
    I can right-click a bunch of files and say "Convert to MP3," but that creates duplicates of each song, so that the songs then play twice.
    What I really want to do is create an MP3 copy of everything in my iTunes library, and put those MP3 files into a collection of separate folders that follow the structure of the folders already in my iTunes library. Is there a way to do this?
    Again, let me emphasize that there is no DRM issue here: All of these files were created by iTunes Match from CDs that I purchased and still own. The only question is how to put these files into a format that another device can play.

    Back up your library. See Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy for a suggested approach.
    Under Edit > Preferences > Advanced take a note of the current media folder, then click the change button and create a new folder, perhaps inside inside the current one, or at the root of a drive where there is plenty of free space for your duplicates. E.g. C:\Users\<User>\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\MP3 or D:\MP3. Do not consolidate media to the new path if/when prompted.
    Take a note of the date and time. Select all of the tracks that you want convert and set the conversion running. When the conversion is complete reset the media folder back to the original path. Again do not consolidate.
    Sorting the Songs list by date added, delete the recent additions to the library. If prompted to send files to the recycle bin (which would happen if you make the MP3 folder inside iTunes Media) say no.
    Your library should be back as it was when you started, but you have a parallel set of MP3 files for your non-Apple device.

  • Why my Ipod Touch 4g doesn't show all my iTunes Match library?

    I'm connecting my iPod Touch 4g to iTunes Match (using WiFi) but it isn't showing all my files. If I choose the option "Music" I can see all of them, but if I select "Artists" or "Albuns" I can't see them anyway. Even when using the "Search" tool, some times I can find the invisible content and some times I have an answer such as I don't have that file/album on my library. I have also an iPad 3rd gen that works fine with iTunes Match, so the problem is related to my iPod really.

    How do you know the camera does not work if you do not have the FT or Camera apps?
    Could those apps be hidden by Restrictions?  Go to Settings>General>Restrictions and check

  • ITunes Match songs don't appear on other mobile devices

    Hi,
    I uploaded all my music on iTunes Match and there are a couple problems when I tried to play it on my iPhone or iPad.
    First, on my iPhone, some songs won't play even though I downloaded the whole playlist with all the songs on it. I would select the song I would like to play and it won't play that song but instead play a different song even though the title of the song I want to play still appears on the iPhone but the play bar doesn't move or play. The iTunes Match seems to cause this problem since if I turn it off and just copy the songs from my computer directly, it plays perfectly.
    Secondly, when I tried to find an album I uploaded on iTunes Match to download it to my iPad but somehow it's not upthere on the cloud or itunes Match for me to download to my iphone or iPad even though I uploaded it a week ago and showed in my computer as already uploaded.
    Both of these problems seem to steam from iTunes Match but I am not sure what the fixes for these are so if you guys can help, I would really appreciate that.
    Thanks,

    Here is how I fixed it.
    Open the latest version of iTunes.
    Choose Store > Sign In.
    Enter your Apple ID and password, and click Sign In.
    Choose Store > View My Account. You may be asked to re-enter your Apple ID password.
    In the "iTunes in the Cloud" section, click Turn Off Auto-Renew to the right of iTunes Match.
    I canceled it because it is wasting to much of my time and energy. " everything just works on a MAC" haha hardly.

  • 1 Itunes match library, different accounts on iOS devices.

    My wife and I have all our music in one itunes library, that's been uploaded to itunes match, under my apple ID.
    However, we use our own app store/itunes accounts as well as our own icloud accounts on our iOS devices.
    Is there any way I can have the itunes imatch work on my wife's iphone?
    I was hoping that if I entered my account under Settings>music>home sharing, itunes match would use that account, but it doesn't seem to...

    Same problem here. I dont find all songs back on my iphone although i have activated all required items in itunes and on the iphone.
    I got a rather big library (16k songs), not everything matched BUT for example i only see Artist starting with "A"... all the other ones are not on my iphone.. very strange.
    - Same story under my songs.
    - All my playlist on the other hand are shown..
    So it would be nice to find out what to do about this...

  • Download entire itunes match library?

    I am unable to download my entire itunes library from iTunes Match. How is it done? I have the latest iTunes on 10.8.
    I enabled iTunes Match and let it upload my entire library. This worked fine.
    About a week later the external hard drive that I store my itunes library on died, as did the hard drive where I keep my backups.
    I bought a new external hard drive and set up iTunes to use that by creating a new library on it.
    I then signed into iTunes and then into iTunes Match.
    I then looked at the iTunes match option and shift-clicked all the files with the cloud icon.
    I then right-clicked the cloud icon and chose Download.
    iTunes subsequently downloaded about half my library before iTunes crashed. I subsequently lost internet for about a week, and now that I have it back I want to download the rest of my library.
    I launched iTunes today and it told me that an iTunes Match problem has occurred and that I need to sign out and then sign back in.
    I have signed out, and signed back in. After doing so, iTunes required me to set up iTunes Match again, so I clicked the button that enables iTunes Match.
    iTunes subsequently has scanned my library and matched the songs to apple and found that all the songs in my current computer are all up there on Match. It seems to believe that it's work is done.
    However, I do not see the files that are already on Match but not on my computer. I can not download these files to this computer. They show up fine on my iPad and my AppleTV.
    Hence my question: How can I get iTunes Match to download my entire library that is stored online?

    Highlight all the tracks you want to download, right-click and choose "download." However, if you have a backup on an external HDD that will be a much better way to transfer your music to a new computer.

  • Number of songs in an iTunes Match library?

    My music library is stored in iTunes Match (purchased, matched, or uploaded).  Some of these songs were purchased from the iTunes Store, some were ripped and matched, and others uploaded.  How can I determine the number of songs in my library that Apple considers part of my 25,000 song limit?  Do I have to do some kind of manual count, or does Apple have a way to notify me of its own count?

    An easy route is to setup a Smart Playlist for each category - note 'matched' and 'uploaded' will both count towards your 25k limit, 'purchased' do not count.
