ITunes Match on iPhone and Apple ID Question

I am enabling match on my wifes iPhone, I know I have to use my Apple ID to do so, this brings me to the following:
I did notice something however, I know to make sure her iCloud uses her ID, however, when I go to messaging and look at the send/receive addresses, it shows the apple ID at the top. I would assume it would have to stay that way because she would be logged in under my ID to use match. I can log that in under another ID I see but then that would screw up her match, correct? So, I need to make sure that the "you can be reached by iMessage at" only uses her e-mails or phone number, same as the "start new conversations from"? I don't have her phone in front of me so I am not sure what it shows for her options for addresses. Maybe it will just show hers anyhow and I have no worries?
One of my main concerns with that is she should not have the ability to receive or send texts from any of my phone number/e-mail addresses. That will only cause confusion in my book.  And, I suppose if I removed those addresses from her phone, consequently it may remove from mine?  I guess I have to see her phone to see what happens, but hoping someone has input on this concern.

I understand fully.  So, you are telling me that even though I have her signed into my Apple ID for iTunes, App Store and consequently iTunes match, I can still use her ID for facetime and messaging?  For some reason, I was under the impression that once I log into store, match and iTunes, then that ID would carry over to messaging/facetime and show my ID.  I know that the iCloud is not impacted, but I guess I thought those services were.  You are saying they are the same as cloud as far as impact.   Use her ID for them (cloud, message, facetime) but mine for match, app store and itunes store?
So, right now her phone is logged in for everything under her Apple ID.  When I log hers into mine for the app store and iTunes and match, it wont change the message, icloud or facetime logins (meaning right now it is logged in under her ID, and suddenly they change to mine when I log in the store as mentioned).  I have it in my head that if I do log her out of one of those, then it will log her out of itunes and all that as well.  You are saying they are the same as iCloud.
I tend to repeat myself, sorry.

  • I download songs from my dropbox to my macbook pro and then upload them to my updated iTunes.  iTunes plays them in entirety, but when i update my iTunes match, my iPhone and iPad skip many of the songs and albums.  Why?  I have tried everything.

  • Itunes Match Error-9810 and apple tv misplaying tracks.

    I have Itunes Match, It has been working a treat upuntill this week. My apple tv was taking ages to playsongs, and whilst flicking through on shuffle and stopped on a track i want to listen to it was playing the wrong track. I could pause and rewind the music, but the track was not the track it should have been. I tried resetting everything. Off/On, reset router, but no joy. I then tried to update Match On my MBP and now all I get is error 9810! I am paying for this functionality.... Why is it not working. I have super fast fibbre optic broadband and everything is updated... Please advise....

    Shawn,
    Thanks again for your help. However, none of that worked at all. The only thing that worked was bringing my Mac to work with me today and setting up iTunes Match over WiFi (I'm on Ethernet at home). Not sure why this worked, but I saw someone else had solved their problem by changing which network they were on, so I figured I'd give that a shot. Still don't know if it was the switch from Ethernet to WiFi, or just being on a totally different network that ended up fixing it, but at least it's working.

  • Im trying to put music on my iphone. when i click music all it says is "itunes match is on" and only lets me click a box that says "sync voice memos" what do i do

    Im trying to put music on my iPhone, when i click music all kt says is itunes match is on and has a box for me to click sync voice memos nothing else what do i do

    Correct.  When you purchase devices, they would have stated the OS they needed to work, on the box.  This can be overlooked, but it is very important to check when purchasing. 
    You current OS, is so old, that they technology build into the new devices, is not something your OS understands.  It didn't exist when your OS was created, and therefore you need to upgrade the OS to work with the newer technology of these devices.
    10.6 software is not downloadable.  You must purchase a DVD disc.  You can order it from the on-line apple store

  • Where is iTunes Match content stored on apple TV? I recently joined itunes match and it is working on my ios devices, but I can't find my music on Apple TV

    Where is iTunes Match content stored on apple TV? I recently joined itunes match and it is working on my ios devices, but I can't find my uploaded music on Apple TV

    It isn't actually stored anywhere, it needs to be downloaded from the internet before any content can be played.
    iTunes Match content is accessed through the 'Music' icon on the main screen though, it needs turning on though in settings first.

  • HT5622 My wife and I shared an Apple ID, have closed out iTunes on her iPhone and iPad but will not allow her email address to be associated with a new account even though it does not appear anywhere in my information. Any suggestions.

    My wife and I shared an Apple ID, I have closed out the iTunes on her iPhone and her iPad. While trying to set up a new iTunes account when I enter her email address it says we have to select a new email address. I have checked and her email is not associated with my iTunes account and really do not want to establish another email account. Any suggestions?

    Hi Stateler74,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  You might be able to find the Apple ID that her email address is associated with by following this article's instructions:

  • While ripping DVDs to my computer for playback in itunes, ipod, iphone, and apple tv, is there any way to rip a single copy that is supported by the previous devices?

    My current problem is that when I rip a DVD to an iphone/ipod touch format with my ripping software, I have to convert the file to one supported by apple tv when I want to play the movie in apple tv.  To clarify, I wish to rip the DVD once, with no file conversion in itunes, for playback and transfer to iphone/ipod touch and apple tv.  I assume there is way to this by altering the ripping settings, perhaps trying 600-900 kps per second.  I hope that there is a way to rip a DVD that can be played in the iphone and apple tv.  Thanks in advance!

    No. Have you tried:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

  • HT1391 I deleted my ringtone from iTunes because I couldn't sync it to my iphone or play it in itunes through the iphone, and now I can't get it back.  I have the purchase receipt...but how do I get it back????? If I can't, can I get refund?

    This is ONE of the MANY reasons, I have held off on getting and iPhone.  Because the ONLY option in getting the music onto it, is by using itunes, instead of just being able to drag and drop.  This is annoying as F***.
    I paid for and downloaded a ringtone from the iTunes store.  It was working fine. Then I hoooked up my iphone to my bf's laptop, competely forgetting that it had already been synced to MINE, which is broken and toasted.  For some reason, it deleted everything off my phone, I spent 3 hours trying to figure out how the **** to get music back onto my iphone using itunes.  It's NOT a user friendly program, and being a computer savvy as I am.....I HATE USING IT. But unfortunately, I don't have a choice. So, I was able to get the two ringtones that I created with my free ringtone maker app BACK into my phone.  But go figure, the one that I actually paid for, I can't get back on.  It was in my itunes, and on my iphone...but had the exclmation mark beside it.  I have already gone to the support page and followed the instructions for retrieving it.  I have manually deleted it from my computer SINCE this discovery, by deleting it from itunes.  So....to make sure yall are understanding this...I tried tracking it down by searching my computer....and I couldn't find it, although it was still listened on BOTH my itunes on my laptop AND in my iphone.  I trued to manually delete it from the iphone....wouldn't work. So i manually deleted it from itunes.
    My question is this....
    HOW ON GODS GREEN EARTH DO I GET IT BACK!!!!????
    It's only $1.29 canadian, but man, this program is ******* me off to no end.
    It's stupid that Apple has completely restricted us.  -sighs gritting her teeth- I just want my ring tone back.  That's it.  I can't even figure out how to redownload it....or if I can even do that.
    Please someone help me.  I'm soooo frustrated.
    Thanks
    CER

    Never mind I fixed it. Just in case anyone else has this problem, after you reinstall iTunes you have to delete all your old music, and if you have iTunes match all the songs you have saved on itunes match will display and you just have to download them to your Macbook.

  • ITunes match/macbook pro/iphone5/apple tv

    just wondering why sometimes my playlists on itunes don't always show up on my other devices (iphone5 & apple tv; in music) after i do an itunes match update on my macbook pro. i also have my settings on shared on home sharing on the macbook pro. you can also see my itunes account name on apple tv.
    sometimes the playlists are there, sometimes they are not.
    match is set to "on" on iphone and apple tv, as far as i am aware.
    thanks,
    anthony

    i noticed that when i turned itunes match off on my iphone5, then turned it on again (after having it off for a while), it synced my new stuff.
    not sure how to do the same on my apple tv. this used to just match automatically (sometimes). maybe i need to figure out how to turn match off and on, on my apple tv?
    just wondering why it doesn't match on it's own.

  • I have purchased music from itunes on my iphone and it won't show up in my Ipod music library on my phone.  It shows up in my itunes library on my computer.  This is a recent glitch as up until this week purchased music downloads fine on phone.

    I purchased music on itunes on my iphone and the songs won't show up in my music library on the phone.  They are on my computer itunes library but it won't let me transfer the purchases back to my phone (which I have never had to do before).  Never had this problem before this week when purchasing music on my iphone.
    My Itunes library on my laptop is slightly different from my Iphone library so I don't want to erase and sync the entire library.

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • IPhone would not let me delete individual song from library, tried deleting album to remove music from local storage, now certain songs from album do not show in iTunes match on iPhone only on computer

    Upon completion of matching and uploading my very large library of music (+15,000), I wanted to see how iTunes Match worked on my iPhone. I started it and selected the first album in the list to listen to. I let it play the entire album and then decided that I wanted to remove certain songs off of the iPhone's local storage. Tried to delete the individual songs and it would not let me. So I figured that I would go back and just delete the album. After selecting delete I went back to listen to one of the songs on the album and realized that it deleted several of the songs from the iTunes Match completely. When pulling iTunes up on my computer the songs are still there but does not give me the option to upload to iTunes Match.
    I have tried turning off Match on iPhone and back on (doesn't seem to do anything cause when turned off the iPhone still displays the music.)
    Then tried power cycling. (Still shows the music)
    Then I tried power cycling again and resyncing the phone and the iPhone still shows the music as it was on the phone.
    How do I get the music to be accessable on the iPhone again.. I have been messing with this for the course of 3 hours now.. and any help would be appreciated!!
    iPhone 3GS 8GB

    Actually Michael I know exactly how to delete.. The iPhone would not let me swipe to the left to delete the individual song, so I went to the album view and did it there.. The issue I am having is a bug because it removed 3/4 of the albums availablity off my iPhone.. You post proved no help because it is basic troubleshooting which, if you read my post, I have already done.. I did however figure out how to fix my issue on my own.. Basically I had to remove the album from my iTunes on my computer and upload it again to iTunes Match..

  • Only some of my photo's are syncing from iPhoto to my iPad, iPhone and Apple TV.

    Only some of my photo's are syncing from iPhoto to my iPad, iPhone and Apple TV.
    It may be my own fault due to learning Aperture and playing around with the locations of the Master Files.
    The thing I don't understand is that when in iPhoto all thumbnails of all photo's are able to be enlarged / edited etc. When a thumbnail is clicked on there is no gray triangle with an exclamation mark indicating that the link to the original photo can't be found. I would have thought this was ok for syncing to take place.
    When trying to sync through iTunes to my iPad for example (after some photo's have been synced) a window comes up saying "Some of your photos, including the photo “_MG_3820.jpg”, were not copied to the iPad “Mark Harlen’s iPad” because they cannot be displayed on your iPad".
    I thought this may be due to lack of memory space but my Apple TV (which has the same issue but not the same warning window) has over over 100 free GB's so that can't be it.
    When I did a test and re imported one photo that wasn't being synced to my other devices, that photo consequently was then synced so maybe it has something to do with the path through iPhoto to the original files.
    Is there any way I can re establish these links with out having to create an entire new iPhoto library from the originals (I have a lot of albums and have done a lot of editing etc and don't and want to have to do it all again).
    I look forward to you help and advice
    Mark

    Thanks for the advice but it didn't seem to work
    I've decided to try ditching iPhoto and orgainising, syncing my photo's to all devices from Aperture
    I have so far imported over 1200 photo's (relocating and renaming the master files as well) and find that when syncing through iTunes only 209 photo's are listed. The Projects/Albums are there but some indicate that there are 0 photo's in them when I know other wise (at least according to whats happing in Aperture)
    I'm starting to suspect it may be a computer problem
    Any thoughts?
    Regards
    Mark
    PS: Just after posting this I restarted my computer, went into iTunes and my Apple TV started to sync. It was now syncing 854 photo's not 209 as before.

  • I downloaded several cds to my external hard drive in .mp3 format. Later, I copied them to iTunes. The songs only play when the external hard drive is plugged in. I tried to load the songs from iTunes to my iPhone and the songs don't play.

    Hi skoorb1,
    When adding music to iTunes, you can set it to either make a local copy of the file, or simply point to the original location of the file (for example, on an external hard drive). If it is set to do the latter, it will not be able to play or transfer those files when the external hard drive is not plugged in. You may find the following article helpful:
