ITunes Match will not turn off on my iPhone 5s

The problem:
I've got it turned on on my iPhone 5S, running iOS 7.1.2.
I go into Settings -> Music, and flip the toggle to turn off iTunes Match. Back up to Settings, go back into Music, the toggle is turned back on.
It is impossible to turn off iTunes Match on my phone. iTunes (running on Macbook Pro Air, w/ OS X 10.9.4) shows the phone as having iTunes Match turned on, always, no matter what. I've tried unmounting the phone, shutting down iTunes while changing the setting on phone, etc. Nothing changes the problem.
As others have reported, if I attempt to update the cloud with new playlists or tracks added to my laptop, it claims it is syncing to iTunes Match, but never completes this process.
At this point I'm paying for a service that is significantly impeding my ability to listen to music I own on devices I also own. Thanks Apple.

Hi,
You can turn off auto renew by signing into you iTunes account on your computer.
With regard your iPhone have you tried signing out of the iTunes Store?

After installing iTunes and iPod, my computer will not turn off

I am running Windows XP, and have just installed my new iPod nano and iTunes. Now my computer will not turn off. When I select "Turn off computer" in the start menu, the computer goes through the usual process of shutting down -- then it restarts automatically every time! Once it has started up again, it sends an Error report to windows -- but they are not coming forward with a solution for this problem. It appears as a problem created by an "Unknown device driver". I now have to turn my computer off by the wall. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Try running the Combo update first ... OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo), and once it is successfully downloaded, then try to download 10.8.5.
Sometimes the combo will correct any minor glitches in the system and also ensure all necessary updates to that point are included.

My itunes match will not sync properly

Mac User same thing
Hello there here is my problem. My itunes match will not sync properly. It shows a lot of songs over 100 with the icloud match status as "Waiting"
Here is what i have done
1. Reinstall the entire OS delete everything and start from scratch
2. Turn on and off itunes match.
3. Hold down the option key
4. Move my music out of the music folder clear everything out of my itunes and bing back my music.
5. Use backup copies of my music in case the music files had been corrupted.
6. Checked numerious mac community forms that report simular issues.
7. Tried another macbook pro that I have
8. My wifes account which has about 8000 songs did no have the issue. My account seems to have the issue sobeservices2. I beleive this to be account specific. My account has 11481 songs and about 100 to 100 show with the status of "waiting"
9. I get no error messages
10. I've tried multiple ISP - COMCAST - FIOS - I even tried multiple computers
11. Redid the entire os
12. My account has problems "*****s2" but my wife account does not
13. Replicated the issue on more then one computer it seems only has problems with my itunes account. Suck waiting to upload
and its not always the same songs sometimes it's different songs that it gets suck waiting to upload.
14. Removed the waiting songs and attempted again
15. Started with fresh iTunes had the server match a blank itunes folder to the point where it said "0 Songs Match" then re-added them
16. Called Apple Care and spoke with a Senior Advisor who told me he would have to escalate a ticket and he to thought I had done all the tsing possible and that it was up to the engineers to figure out a solution.
I have been working on this for about 4 weeks now. All my trouble shooting has pointed it to be an account specific issue.
Any advise from the community

Hi
I have had a similar set of issues. 8000 songs, 800 in waiting. All ripped from CD into Apple Lossless - mainly classical so most didn't match directly.
First I ripped all these 8000 songs for my father first on his laptop from his CD collection. Eventually got them all matched or uploaded to his Match account (except one) by the usual tricks people suggest (e.g. recoding as AIFF or MP3 etc, deleting, re-adding blah blah). Though of course I shouldn't really have to waste my time doing this. One song absolutely refused to upload. Tried everything - including buying a pristine downloadable version off the publisher's website. Still resolutely refuses to upload.
Anyway - main problem is now with my PC. I copied all these 8000 tracks over. Re-installed everything etc. 800 remain in "waiting" (even though they uploaded Ok on a different account). When I rip my own CDs even some common stuff (e.g. Bowie/Stones) gets uploaded instead or matched and often with one or two tracks stuck in 'waiting'.
If I then look at my IPad (with Match enabled), it will show these waiting tracks as if they were already downloaded to it (which of course they are not). If I try and play one of them it just skips over it.

Hey there Dollyonline,
Thank you for asking your question! It sounds like iTunes Match playlists are not syncing correctly to your iPad, even though you have already toggled iTunes Match off then on again. I would next turn iTunes Match back off, then close all the apps on the iPad:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that, sign out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes and App stores, and restart the phone then try turning on iTunes Match again to test the issue:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

My ipod touch is not recognized on itunes and will not turn on or even give me the battery sign that it is dead. I turned it off and it won't turn back on now. The screen is completely black and won't do anything. I have tried charging it over night and nothing happened. It was never near water. I have tried troubleshooting it by holding down the home button and the sleep/wake button, but nothing happened and it didn't work. What can I do to fix it?

Ipod will not turn off, no longer recognized

iPod asked to update to latest software. Upload failed and ipod left in state where it will not turn off, and is no longer recognized in itunes or as a device.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

External volume on 5G Nano will not turn off

External volume always stays on, will not turn off on 5G iPod Nano, even when headphones are plugged in.
Went through the 5 R's (Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall, Restore). No change.
Could it be a defective volume control?

I had same problem - I reset options, etc.
FINALLY, after reviewing this discussion and going to the link as was suggested, I called Apple. The tech guy suggested making sure it was not on lock (on top) which it wasnt' and said to press Menu and Middle circle button (as opposed to Play/pause) at same time and apple logo should appear. It did, and then it unfroze and let me turn it off finally!!!
He thought problem occurs when you leave it on too long.
He suggested NOT to reset options else you'll lose your playlists (at least until you sinc up with your itunes.
Hope this works!!

ITunes Match will not sync songs in a playlist to iPhone

iTunes Match will not sync all songs in a playlist to my iPhone. All songs have iCloud status of matched, uploaded or purchased, and are 128k bitrate or higher. How can I get iTunes match to sync this playlist properly?

I rang applecare with this issue and the way it was resolved was as follows:
To make sure iCloud is up to date:
1. In iTunes on the computer select "Update iTunes Match" from the Store menu and wait until it finishes.
To refresh the data on the iPhone:
2. Power the iPhone down and back up again
3. Settings > iTunes & App Store > iTunes Match > Off
4. Launch the Music app to verify Match is off
5. Power the iPhone down and back up again
6. Settings > iTunes & App Store > iTunes Match > On
7. Launch the Music app and givit it time to update (probably best done when you have a Wifi connection).
Hope this helps

Note you'll lose everything since the last sync, thus the reason to sync often.

My ipod 4g has a frozen white screen and will not turn off, any advice?

My daughter's ipod 4th gen (only 4 months old, bought direct from Apple) suddenly has a frozen white screen and will not turn off. We cannot reboot it by pushing and holding the two buttons, even when held up to one full minute. When we plug it into the computer, the computer does not recognise it nor does iTunes, so we can't even do a full system restore. Help! Any suggestions of how we can reset to factory settings without using iTunes please?

- Let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try :
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

30GB ipod will not turn off

Everything seems to be working fine, music, videos, connection to itunes, and no sudden trauma has happened to the ipod. It just will not turn off and I am wondering if there is another way besides holding the pause/play button. Should I reset all settings? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Try holding the MENU and SELECT (center) buttons until you see the Apple logo to reset your iPod - then see if it'll turn off.
Cheers!

Try Hard Reset -> Hold down these two buttons at the same time [Sleep/Wake & Home] the moment you see the Apple Logo 'release those buttons' allow device to reset
If still no resolution -
Restore
[back up information either via iTunes or iCloud if no recent one has been done]
Erase All Content an Settings - FIRST Set up As New - Test Camera Flash
Works? Great! - restore back up
[NOTE - if the flash does not respond again after restoring back up then sorry will have to Erase All Content and Settings Again and then the best part 'Set up As New and manually enter data/information']
If the first time done and after setting up as new and still not resolved - then Id suggest call AppleCare Support or set an appointment up with an Apple Retail Store
Best of luck
