Itunes match not working on IPhone

Hi all,
Really hope someone can help.
Itunes match working fine on Ipad and Apple TV but when switching on the Iphone 4S I get message saying not subscribed. I use the same Apple ID for everything. Cant understand why it works on the others but not the Iphone which is the one I want it to work on.
When I look in Itunes, I can see my Iphone as a Device on the left hand side, but when I go into the Store and check Itunes in the cloud and manage devices its only my Ipad that is there. Suspect this might be the issue but dont know how to add it? As I said its the same Apple ID?

Hi Michael,
Thanks for coming back to me. I only subscribed to match a few days ago so definately using the same apple ID. Really frustrating.
When I sign back into the store on my iphone and go to turn on itunes match is gives me the subscribe message and when i go to enable automatic downloads it asks for the password, which I put in, and then it just keeps popping up again asking for the password, even although its the correct one going in.
As I said, my iphone is a device on the left hand side, but when I go to itunes in the cloud on my account its only my Ipad that is showing up.
New problem- since I switched itunes match off and back on again, I can enable the itunes match button on my Ipad but none of the music is showing- so neither device is working now. Really annoyed.

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 not working on iPhone 5

My iTunes Match account is set properly on iTunes but I can't activate it on my iPhone 5, although every setting is "on" and I've gone through all the troubleshooting. What else can be done?

Thanks for asking. I mean that, although I'm duly authenticated with my Apple ID and have the iTunes Match activated on the Settings menu, the Music App does not show any of my music. Whenever I open the app, the “cloud” icon shows up and I can see that the device is trying to connect/authenticate to iCloud but then, after a few seconds, nothing is returned and there’s a message saying that there are no songs available. Everything’s working fine on my PC and on my iPad (besides the iMac where I activated Match), the problem seems to affect only the iPhone…

HT204406 iTunes Match Not Working on iPhone

I have no music on my iPhone so I turned off iTunes Match and then turned on Use Cellular Data. Then I turn on iTunes Match and it turns right back off without me even touching the screen. But if I turn off Use Cellular Data and turn on iTunes Match it stays on but then I can't get any music. Any help would be appreciated.

The iTunes store is down (offline) temporarily and I'm pretty sure it is related to that. So I don't think there's anything wrong with your phone, network, or account.
I'd wait a while and try again in a little while. Once iTunes store is back up, I believe it'll just work.

HT204406 iTunes match not working on iPhone 5

I have iTunes Match turned on. At the top of the iTunes song screen on my iPhone 5, it looks like it's downloading all my 2766 songs and the cover view is flashing by rapidly. After it reached 2766 the whole process starts over, and I'm unable to listen to music. Every now and then it will play a random selection; then nothing. Anyone know what's going on?

Not sure if you tried this but I was having the same problem with iTunes Match on my iPhone 5. I fixed it by first connecting it to my MAC. When I connected my iPhone i saw that the "iTunes Match" icon popped up again in the navigation bar on the left (under the "Store" category). I thought this was funny because this is only an option if you haven't activated iTunes Match on the computer or if you haven't registered for the service. Since I already did that I found it was odd that the icon would show up again. Sure enough I clicked on the iTunes Match icon and the main display screen in iTunes went through what seemed to be a quick auto logon process and the iTunes Match icon disappeared. After that I had a hunch and went back to my iPhone (still connected) and tried to activate iTunes Match and this time it did it. Still seems to be some kind of a bug with iOS6 but it has fixed the problem for me... for now...

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.

Check Settings > General > Restrictions, and check out Contacts toward the bottom under the privacy restrictions.
That sounds like the probable cause you cannot add contacts.
Regarding the iCloud behavior, that sounds like it got huge (35,000) because of incorporating other contacts (from social media, perhaps). Also contacts sync has nothing to do with iCloud behavior. The whole idea of keeping your contacts in the cloud is that once you change them on one device, they change everywhere. Specific syncs are not relevant.

My iTunes match not working on my iPhone. Anyoine able to access theirs on an iPhone?

I was informed by an Apple representative that match won't yet work with ios devices becuase it is still in beta testing. Has anyone got itunes match to work with their iphone?

On the east coast in NJ. Cannot access iTunes Match on IOS device or on Apple tv. If I am on wifi, I cannot play any music on my iphone or apple tv. Even those songs downloaded to the iphone wont play. But if I turn off the wifi, then those songs on the iphone will play. On the apple tv, no music from iTunes Match will play. Also failing on my MacBook pro. This needs to get fixed soon.

ITunes match not working on any device?

I cannot get it working at all. When I try to enable on my iPhone it pops up the cloud and loading bar, then disappears almost straight away. If I try to load on Apple TV it says "there was a problem connecting to iCloud. Try again later" If I try on my Macbook it will send results, but will have the cloud with lightning bolt suggesting match is down...
Yet if I got to the iCloud status page everything is apparently fine and should be working. I cannot believe all 3 of my systems are wrong. I even did a full reset of my phone to be sure and still won't work.

iTunes Match has a series of updates / fix underway in the background, sadly no annoucement from Apple to cover. Suggest as a short term free alternate Google Play Music and the gBeats app on IOS - it just works for up to 20000 Songs.
iTunes Match is working in the UK but can be unusually slow, certainly it can not be relied upon - a great pity.

ITunes match not working after restoring device

Hi!
I enabled iTunes Match on my iPhone 4.
I downloaded some songs to keep them stored on my device.
All worked like a charm.
I restored my iPhone 4 to correct some issue, but now the songs I downloaded doesn't play!
All my iTunes Match is working, except for those songs.
They still appear as downloaded on my device, if I tap on them, they appear as playing, but there is no sound, nor the playing bar goes on.
If I connect the iPhone to iTunes Mac via USB, this songs don't appear in the list.
How can I fix it?

Itunes match not working. Itunes match will grey out songs that i have on my iPhone, that were fine before i signed up to itunes match.

Hey
Itunes match will be in a loop. I have unlimited internet but it does take up bandwith. The worse problem is it can never finish step three. I have tryed signing in and out of my apple ID, but that does not seem to help. I go to my iphone and it has songs that are localy stored on it greyed out, like what people are saying about songs they have in the cloud. I can figure it out, i tryed these steps of getting the song off icloud, bring it back in, the uploading it. It just does not seem to be doing anything for me, pleas help!

Hi,
What is the iCloud status of these tracks?
You can add icloud status column to song view - go to menu > view> view options and tick box. This will tell you what has been Matched, Uploaded, Purchased, Inelligible, Duplicate or Waiting.

ITunes Match Not Working After Update to iOS 6.1

I updated my iPhone 5 to 6.1 Now when I select a song using iTunes Match the song/artist/artwork isn't the song that plays. Has anyone else experienced this?I've turned match off to erase all songs and re-enabled it again, but I'm still getting the wrong songs. It works fine in iTunes, just not on the phone. Any ideas?

Since update iTunes Match has not worked on my iPhone. I can see playlists and songs but not albums or artists. Have searched for solution with no joy. Sorry!

ITunes match not working on ipad

iTunes match is not working on y iPad, one day all the music was there now I can't get it to work. It shows the iCloud symbol and after 30 seconds or so it disappears and a massage saying now music appears. What's going on???

Can't help -- on my iPhone, i've turned the toggle switch on in Setting>Music but it says I have not subscribed to iTunes Match and to go to iTunes on my computer and subscribe even though I have already. So, can't get iCloud to update music on my iPhone wirelessly.
