Itunes match not matching. it did earlier. what gives?

i had my songs working fine on my other ipod and my ipad mini. i gave my friend the mini, sold the ipod, and now have the new ipod. but about 40 or so songs just keep telling me they cant download because of an unspecified error. for two months now. i wasn't even going to bother renewing itunes match but it renewed itself eariler than i had marked on my calandar. i guess my error there.
anyway, anyone know what gives? the songs are indeed in itunes and as i said, downloaded fine on my former devices just two months ago. or maybe less.
(btw, i now have just a chromebook, not dual booted with straight linux yet. no access right now to desktop itunes. but i shouldnt need it, right? i use icloud. extensively.

Hi,
You need iTunes on a mac or PC to manage your match account. Without it you will not be able to establish reason for the problem with the 40 or so songs.
You also need iTunes to renew match and if match is not renewed to wil lose all access to match music. I trust that you have a back up of your music on a hard drive.

    Hi RadarCat16,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I know it can be frustrating when you are waiting for content to download to your iPhone from the iTunes Store. There are a few steps I would recommend in this situation. Please read over and follow the steps in the attached article.
    iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
    If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
    For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
    Enter your account name and password if prompted.
    Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
    If you can't complete the download on your iOS device, you can download it in iTunes on your Mac or PC and then sync it to your iOS device. You can also transfer purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer.
    Have a great day,

  • I just got a new macbook pro. How do I get the 900  songs that I took off of cds into iTunes on my computer from my iPhone. I had no problems syncing the music I had purchased from iTunes. I have tried to sync it using iTunes match, this did not work.

    I just got a new macbook pro. How do I get the 900+  songs that I took off of cds into iTunes on my computer from my iPhone. I had no problems syncing the music I had purchased from iTunes. I have tried to sync it using iTunes match, this did not work. I would like to have access to my full library without going into the user profile of my old computer, which is on my new computers hard drive. I would like to eventually delete the old profile so that I have more space on my hard drive.

    Hi homayra,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I know that it can be concerning when you see a purchase from iTunes that you do not recognize. Please use the information in the attached article for how to proceed.
    How iTunes Store charges might look on credit and debit card statements - Apple Support
    Get more help
    If you compared your purchase history (and family members' purchase histories) to your statement and still don't recognize the charge or want to request a refund, contact Apple Support.
    If you don't have an iTunes Store account (Apple ID) and see charges on your statement, contact Apple Support. You can also request a refund if the charge is shown in your purchase history.
    Best regards,

  • TS3212 it says that the download for the new itunes is not a valid Wn32 application. what do i do?

    it says that the download for the new itunes is not a valid Wn32 application. what do i do?

    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • TS1363 My computer is picking up my iphone, but itunes is not picking it up. What is wrong?

    My computer is picking up my iphone, but itunes is not picking it up. What is wrong?

    See section 5 of TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows.
    If that doesn't help it may pay to tear down and reinstall iTunes in the following manner...
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

    If you're really trying to use Windows 2000, then that's the problem. As you'll see on the box, you need at least XP/SP3.

  • 2nd week running, I received an e-mail saying a new episode of Breaking Bad is available.  When I go to download its the "Inside Breaking Bad" short (which gives away spoilers - thanks Apple!) but not the episode itself.  What gives?

    I've tried this on multiple products so I believe its specific to iTunes not a particular device.

    Same thing here- Get the email but nothing but the Inside featurette. It's really annoying. In fact I can't even download it normally using the check for available downloads feature! Every time I do that iTunes tries to download doubles of three Walking Dead episodes I've already downloaded. I don't want what I already have, I just want the new episode.

  • HT4914 Does Itunes match sync only songs, what about apps?

  • I just got the iPhone 5s about a month ago, i decided to turn it off because some of the apps weren't working right, and now it will not turn back on. It says i need to plug it in to iTunes, but my iTunes will not recognize my phone. What do i do?

    I just got the iPhone 5s the Friday it came out. So today i decided to turn it off because some of the apps are not working. Now that i turned it off, it will not let me turn my phone back on until i plug it into iTunes. But i have and now its saying that until my iPhone is restored i can not plug it into iTunes. I already have . alot of stuff such as picture and contacts that i do not want to lose. What is going on and what can i do? This is honestly the most frusterating thing about IPHONEs. PLEASE HELP, I CAN'T HANDLE MUCH MORE. This should not be happening. I did NOT pay 300$ for this to happen in a less than a month of coming out.

    Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer

    Apple - Support - iPhone - iTunes Troubleshooting Assistant
    If  the issue persists after following the troubleshooting assistant,  continue with the steps below, testing to see if the issue is resolved  after each section.
    Ensure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. iTunes 10 and later requires Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes and Install software updates on your Mac.
    Check  USB connections. iOS devices require USB 2.0 to function properly. If  you are not sure if your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, refer to the computer's specifications. Disconnect other USB devices, and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
    Restart your Mac.
