ITunes match (This will take 5 seconds to answer)

as we know that your tunes are available whenever via iTunes match and at quality of 256KBPS
My question is if you have content that is higher than this E.G 320KBPS will you be able access your music anywhere at this quality =????

... for an 'upload' any source Song file >256 kbps will be transcoded to 256 kbps before it is uploaded to icloud;
Actually, that isn't correct. Uploads are only changed to 256kbps if they are greater than 320.
Not that this will help in this case, as matched files will still be at 256.

    That's not how to do it. You don't move stuff then set the iTunes prefs > Advanced.
    Once you move the /iTunes/ folder, hold Option, launch iTunes and select Choose library... and select the ITunes folder on the external.
    This will use the iTunes library file in the iTunes folder you moved.
    Don't change iTunes prefs > Advanced.

  • I cannot access my words with friends on my ipad.  For a brief second it shows a saying "updating this will take a few minutes".  It has now been 15 hours.  What can I do?

    I cannot access my words with friends on my ipad.  For a brief second a screen will come saying "updating this will take a few minutes" .  It has been 15 hours!  What can I do?

    That means the person you are playing doesn't have the app on their phone!!  And they can only play on the PC?
    How about asking the person your playing if they have the app or not.
    If you don't want help here, you can more than ask the WWF developer why your having trouble.
    You can take your attitude somewhere else!!

  • IMac - freezes or pauses intermittantly - usually for 2 or 3 seconds no matter what program is running - sometimes just touching a menu to get a drop down will take several seconds

    my iMac freezes or pauses intermittantly - usually for 2 or 3 seconds - no matter what program is running - sometimes just touching a menu to get a drop down will take several seconds - if playing music on iTunes or Spotify the music will pause for several seconds - it is not internet related because it happens when working off line - its become a major annoyance in using the compuetr - really slows it down - any suggestions?

  • 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.

    Your purchased music is availble for download again at no cost.  If you have iTunes match service, you can download your matched music.

  • My itunes match subscription will be expiring soon. Will I lose all my music, as they are threatening, if I choose not to subscribe again?

    My itunes match subscription will be expiring soon. Will I lose all my music if I choose not to subscribe again?

    Hi,
    If all your music is in your itunes library on your computer, you will not lose that music.
    If you do not have the music on your computer and stream the music you will lose all your music except for previous itunes purchases. Likewise you will no longer have access to match music.

  • If I have converted my purchased iTunes songs to a lower bit rate what will happen when I join iTunes match? Will they match up or will these be stored as duplicates of the same song?

    If I have converted my purchased iTunes songs to a lower bit rate what will happen when I join iTunes match? Will they match up or will these be stored as duplicates of the same song?
    I ask because I primarily use my work laptop which has limited space so I usually convert my purchases to 160k from 256k in order to save space. I want to sign up for iTunes Match but I'd like to know before I do so I can understand how I will have to set up my library.

    What I may do is start a brand new library there, copy my tracks from my work laptop using Home Share and then the script to get things in sync before starting over again there too.
    Why create a new library? Just add the tracks from the laptop to the existing library on the Mac.

    I was just hoping to hear definitively whether or not there was some sort of intelligence built into iTunes Match that would match these up...
    How do you mean? If you down-convert purchased tracks you've fundamentally changed the files so iTunes can no longer recoginize them as "purchased." And, indeed, they no longer are since they are brand new files. Of course these new files will only be "matched" or "uploaded."

  • 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???

  • Starting Itunes match at atv2 takes long time and doesn't stop?

    I startetd itunes match at atv2. It says that it will take only a few minutes depending on the size of the mediathek. But it's running now for 2 days. What can I do?

    Do you mean iTunes Match has been running for several days on the initial match of your library?  If so, depending on the size of your library this is not unusual.
    If atv2 refers to Apple TV 2 then something is very wrong since this will start within minutes.

  • My pc died with (stupidly) no external backup, save iTunes Match. Will I be able to download my itunes library to a new Mac?

    Hello! I am new here! Here is my question: my pc just died with my iTunes music library. Foolishly, I had no physical external backup, but am a subscriber to iTunes Match. I plan to purchase a MacBook Air ASAP. Will I be able to download my music to my new MacBook from the Cloud? From there, I plan to copy all to an external hard drive (like I should have done in the first place!). Any info will be most appreciated! Thanks.

    Yes. As long as all your songs you lost have been Matched or Uploaded to iTunes Match you can download your entire library from the cloud.
    It might take some time though

  • Having purchase iTunes Match, it will not finish syncing; won't complete process. SOS

    I bought iTunes Match and haven't been able to complete the syncing process over several days. It will go thru the steps 1, then 2 and stalls on 3 (uploading art work and remaining songs.) I have had several serious problems over the past couple of years, twice having lost my musical Playlists. I've had to reconfigure them & neither time are they the exact same -- this means, from my conbination of internet buys & manual downloads, there are years of different kinds of files. Any help offered will be appreciated.

    I'm having a similar problem - but the difference being the device isn't recognised at all!!! The latest updates for IOS and iTunes are filled with bugs, it's so annoying I can no longer sync my iPod Touch (5th gen) and the device itself isn't sending iMessages & Facetime won't work!
    This thread is about devices not syncing properly.  If your iPod Touch isn't behaving normally it's more likely that there's an issue with the device itself.
    First try resetting it:
