ITunes Match not updating on iTunes 11.1.4, OS X 10.9.1

Title says it all, I recently added new songs to my library from CDs .When iTunes goes to update the library, it hangs up when sending the information to Apple.
I've tried troubleshooting the issue:
Signing out of iTunes Store, relogging in
Turning iTunes Match off, then on again
Restarted the computer
Anyone else having this issue or have a solution?

Hi,
Try holding option key whilst turning off match. Close and relaunch iTunes. Turn on match and select add this computer.
Try rebooting you Internet router as well.

ITunes match not updating on devices

Help. Please.
itunes match not updating. iTunes on computer has appropriate songs/ albums. But on iPhone and ipad changes do not appear. I have tried holding down shift key when turning off iTunes Match, signing out of iTunes Store, then quitting itunes. I then start itunes, sign into store, then turn on iTunes match and it goes through lengthy scanning, hours, and I am left with the matching page showing the three stages of iTunes Match greyed out, with a button offering me to start it again. Re
i have repeated this process several times, switching off iTunes Match on devices before starting iTunes Match on compute - same problem. I have changed albums while iTunes Match is on, as recommended by apple's webpage.
please advise on how to update iTunes match so this change on computer also happens on devices. Thank you in advance

Dear Jim
thank you so much. Thank you for your quick reply, sorry I did not respond sooner, but I wanted to make sure it worked before replying, hence I had to wait for iTunes Match to do its thing.
You are are a genius Jim, so a big thank you.
So in a nutshell for all, Jim's solution works for those who have gone over their 25,000 limit by mistake, and are unable to update match, you can with Jim's solution, delete stuff in the iTunes Match cloud and in effect have your original iTunes Match library as you want it.
Thank you Jim

Match not updating iPhone but fine on iPad?

Match not updating iPhone but fine on iPad?
I've added songs to iTunes on my Mac and updated Match, they show fine on my iPad but not on my iPhone.
Show all songs is on and i've reenabled Match on my phone and on my Mac numerous times but for some reason Match won't add new content to my iPhone.
any ideas?
Thanks.

HeIlo Brian, thanks for the help. I couldn't find any email setting in the iPad settings for "signing out" of an account, only deleting (which I've done already), but I did go into the Yahoo account setting on the iPad, and slide the green Mail slider across to "disconnect" it (while leaving the others). I then went to my Mail and saw the "Yahoo, Google, etc." mail setup screen. I then went BACK to settings and slid the mail slider back "on" again. When I returned to Mail, first I saw ""***Orphand Mail Account" at the top of the screen...And then it reloaded and all is well...my mail is back. Thanks for putting me on the right track!

ITunes Match not updating on iPad or iPhone

I have iTunes Match enabled on 3 computers and two iOS devices both on 5.0.1. When I make changes to the library on any of the 3 computers, the other two computers will reflect those changes (whether it is adding new songs or changing artwork or ratings etc). However, the iPhone and iPad will not reflect those changes. I have restored from new and from backup and still the same problem. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the reply
I do all my updating on my main computer that has always had my library. All changes are reflected on the other two computers. I even tested making changes from those two computers and all computers reflect the changes. It seems to be just the iPhone now as since I first posted this, for some odd reason, the iPad is now seeing the changes. I have closed out the iTunes app from the multitask menu. I have also rebooted, powered off, toggled itunes Match off and on again (which is odd because when i turn it off, it does not remove the itunes Match songs which I thought it would have and only kept the locally stored songs). I think I will have to try a clean restore again and maybe that will solve the problem. I am all out of things to do to rectify this problem.

HT4914 Itunes match not updating play list?

I've been using itunes match for about a month and noticed something annoying.
When I add a song to a certain play list that play list dissappears from itunes match on my phone.
I restarted my phone...re-synced imatch thru itunes and nothing..
Anybody else have this problem or know how to fix?
Thanks

HT4915 iTunes Match not updating Changes from Library and reverting to original data WHYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!?

How do I keep iTunes Match from De-Organizing my music? I have spent hours organizing my music ratings, info, and deleting duplicates only to quit iTunes and find out that it reverts back to the original when it starts up and syncs with Match. It first de-organized hours worth of my time. Then I tried it again with iTunes match off only to find out that once you turn it on it de-organizes it again!! I have iTunes match turned off on all my devices. HELP!!

Oh let me elaborate some more as my frustration kept me from being clear. I updated my library (which is of significant size) with different ratings, genre and deletion of duplicate songs. While iTunes Match was on. I closed the ITunes program and, later once I re-opened it it asked if it connect to the internet like usual and right in front of my eyes reverted what I had updated back to before I updated it.
I never had this issue before except for when I first upgraded my macbook and copied the music files straight from the iTunes folder from a backup disk which did not save any of my ratings.
I then modified a couple of songs again, closed the I-Tunes application, opened it again, and saw it revert it again.
I turned iTunes Match off on all my devices and modified some songs, restarted iTunes and the changes stayed.
Something with the "Cloud" is not allowing these changes to remain permanent. Once a change is made to a file it is timestamped right? So why is the cloud and computer not following the latest timestamp?
I have finished organizing a sizable amount of music and am now worried about turning Match on again in fear that it will screw up my entire library.
I do this about once every 5 years or so where I spend a lot of time organizing my music, photos, etc... I just wish that for once I would have technology that wouldn't make it a nightmare.
Side note: I am bilingual and recently changed my computer language from English to Portuguese. So iTunes thinks its totally cool to change the genre of only the songs that are played to the portuguese spelling of the genre, which practically duplicates all my genre. Thats pretty annoying. Just leave the freaking music metadata language alone dudes if the artist speaks english the metadata should be in english in my opinion. Or at least have this auto language update as an option under preferences one could opt out of.

Match not updating Album info

Hi,
I enabled Match and let it upload missing songs, mostly compilation albums.
Once they were on Match I realised that a lot of the albums had incorrect info (causing the compilation albums to appear many many times in my iPhone).
I fixed the issue on my laptop, but I can't get the changes to roll out to Match.
What am I supposed to do? How do I get it to sync the changes? Ive tried doing "Update iTunes Match" but that hasn't done it either.
Suggestions?

I had this problem with some of the older music that I have. I actually found my own album artwork and info on the internet and entered it in manually. I guess this could take awhile for alot of music, but i know how frustrating it can be.I used Amazon.com to find info and artwork for music Apple never heard of.Good Luck.

Music/iTunes Match not working properly since update to iOS 7

Music/iTunes Match not working properly since update to iOS 7

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

Itunes not updating Itunes Match

since updating Itunes today, Itunes Match is not updating - am I alone?
Let me know
Stu

Hi
No not working for me either....

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???

Why is my wish list not updating when I add songs through iTunes Radio?

Wish list is not updating.

Count me in the same boat. I'm an iTunes Match customer. While listening to iTunes Radio I push the star and then choose to add to wish list except it never adds. Doing the same function on my Mac works fine.
I found a note from Apple that stated you can only add "albums" to your wish list on iOS 7, not songs. That then begs the question....why add functionality that is purposefully intended to add songs in your own UI????

ITunes match not syncing normal playlists correctly

I have iTunes match enabled on my computer and on my iOS device. I made a playlist that consists of 195 songs on my computer. I opened Music on my phone, and I see the playlist there with all 195 songs no problem. I open iTunes on my computer and delete a few songs down to 128. My iOS device still shows 195 songs.. I restart iTunes and my iOS device and iTunes still shows 128 songs, and my iOS device shows 195. I hit update iTunes Match on iTunes on my computer and all those songs I deleted are back and it is showing 195 songs on the computer now too. How do I update my playlist using iTunes Match? Is the service this buggy/unreliable?
I also noticed I have reset my play count on iTunes on the computer and it is all back too. It is like any changes on iTunes on the computer are not updating to iTunes Match.

I am also having problems with smart playlists on OS7 iphone 4s with mountain Lion on my mac
I have two smart playlists, one for music not played in 6 months, the other for zero plays, the other criteria for the lists are media type 'music' and track time ' less than 15 minutes.
These two playlists have 619 items and 108 items respectively in my mac but on the phone it shows 2962 items (for both lists) and a cloud symbol next to the track - although scrolling down, there are some tracks that do not have the cloud symbol - these look like the original 619 and 108 in the lists
Other smart playlists are fine and appear to be not affected

If I modified a file in my itunes library that I already have in match the information in match is updated?

Hello
Ihope you can help me with this doubt
If I modified a file of my itunes librery that I already have in macth the information in match will updated?
Thanks

Yes the information about a Song if changed will update in iTunes Match, however, the service does not share all information with IOS devices - on occassion if viewing via an IOS device you may experience delays for some information and apparent gaps for other information.

Feedburner w/itunes feed details not updating

Ive been having an issue for MONTHS where my feedburner manipulated feed refuses to update with the new summary of my podcast feed from what it was originally set to in itunes. The only thing I can think of is that this is because of some weird itunes caching.
LINK TO FEED SOURCE:
http://www.joeshowradio.com/rss_files/feedburner.rss
LINK TO FEEDBURNER:
feeds.feedburner.com/MmaJoeShowRadio-UndergroundMmaRadio
for whatever reason, when feedburner updates my feed is alters the feed information to match what it was originally set to in itunes. how do I stop this from happening?

So Feedburner is not updating the info from the feed. As I understand it, what is in Feedburner in the 'itunes:subtitle' 'itunes:summary' and 'itunes:image' tags is what was there originally? - and subsequently you changed the subtitle and summary to the entries with the first sentence in capitals, and presumably must have changed the image?
Did you do this before or after adding the latgst episode? - the question being whether Feedburner is updating from the feed, just not those particular tags, or whether it's not updating at all.
I can't see why it shouldn't update - the only thing odd about the feed is the absence ot the xml declaration in the first line:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
which Feedburner adds - presumably this has always been missing anyway? - and the feed validates in FeedValidator and can be subscribed to in iTunes so this shouldn't be a problem.
If you made the changes after adding the latest episode (not at the same time) then I suppose it's possible that FeedBurner might not see the changes until the next time you add an episode - iTunes is liable to do that but I dono't know about FeedBurner.
You could also look round Feedburner and see whether there is somewhere you can over-ride the contents of these tags; I don't know whether this is possible.

When I sync my iPad with iTunes it does not update the play count? Is there a setting I need to change?

When I sync my iPad with iTunes it does not update my play counts. Is there a way to make this happen?

Are you using iTunes Match by chance? I had no problems whatsoever with play counts synching between any of my devices until I started using iTunes Match. I turned it off and magically my play counts synced. Once. Hasn't happened again though.
