ITunes Matching songs from other stores

Is there a way to match songs that are only available on other stores i.e. iTunes US Store if they're not available on the Australian Store?

Although this question has been covered quite often:
In order to buy from a certain country's iTMS, you do need
either: a CC with a billing address in that country
or: an address in that country plus a prepaid card/gift voucher issued by iTMS in that country.
If you don't meet one of this conditions, there is no solution for you.
-sorry but the copyright holders wanted it that way.

  • I've got DRM protected songs from other stores than iTunes. Will they still be matched with iTunes Match?

    The title really asks the question. I've got DRM protected music, I purchased on a german music-store. Will iTunes still match them via iTunes Match with unprotected examples?

  • HT4914 Purging downloaded iTunes Match songs from iOS to keep memory available.?

    It states that if your iOS system downloads the music from iCloud as you listen to it so its there for listening when no wifi is available! How do you purge  the songs after listening so they don't take up space?

    Hey there Chriskir,
    It sounds like you would like to delete all the songs from your iPad but still be able to access them in iTunes Match. You can delete all the songs from the Music section of your Usage in Settings by swiping your music left:

  • Matching songs from other regions?

    Hello guys, I am just wondering whether Itunes Match matches songs which are not available in US Store but available in other regions, e.g. Rock in Rio by Iron Maiden, many Black Sabbath albums cannot be purchased in US, but can be in UK or Ireland. Do any of you have 'that kind of' albums succesfully matched?

    No, iTunes Match does not match across stores. It only matches to content in your "store of record."

  • When I delete itunes match song from itunes, download icon is greyed out

    Now that my songs are in the cloud, I want to delete my ripped version and download the iTunes Match version, but I can't see how since the download icon is greyed out. Anybody know how? Thanks!

    The first thing to keep in mind is that not every track will be "matched." Some will be "uploaded." You need to enable the iCloud Status column in the iTunes browser to see what the track's status are. Switch to Song view and pull down View > View Options. Select "iCloud Status" then close the window. Now you will be able to see the status of the songs. Tracks with a status of "uploaded" are the exact same tracks that were on your computer.
    If the streams are greyed out that generally means iTunes can not connect to the cloud. Look next to Music and see if the cloud icon is solid. If it is not quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, the relaunch it. This should re-establish the connection to the cloud and you will be able to download the tracks.

  • How can it that half of my songs are matched in iTunes Match where the other songs from the same CD (ripped by Itunes) are not matched but uploaded?

    I started with ITunes Match a few days ago (I have the latest versions of all OS's etc)
    - The whole process took more then two days to complete for the first time.
    - Half of my songs are matched in iTunes Match where the other songs most of the time from the same CD (most ripped by ITunes) are not matched but uploaded(?)
    - Complete CD's are not recognized, they are however available in the ITunes store (songs in my library not available in ITunes are an exception).
    - The match part overall is less then 50%, which is a complete disappointment.....
    - When I activate ITunes Match on my IPod, IPhone and IPad the art-work does not load or only partly.
    - Loading songs on iOS is extremely slow... and that is definitely not due to my internal network.
    - ICloud (ITunes Match) on the apple TV stops working after every 15 seconds because it losses connection to the ITunes server....
    I am a real Apple fan for the last decade but what a disappointment is this......before I started with ITunes Match everything worked seamlessly.

    The number of Songs that 'matched' is simply a function of the current iTunes Match service process.  It is not unusual to have multiple Songs in an otherwise perfectly matched album be uploaded - often it is very possible to find the album in the iTunes Store.
    The Artwork does tend to reappear for many over a few days / weeks - however, if your library backup has all Artwork present it would be wise to save the Album Art separately and reapply to Albums not showing art work in the library grid view.
    Many of the other performance issues you mention are not typical - though during the past working week or so the Apple Infrastructure has been very heavily loaded with multiples countries having service go-live symultaneously.

  • Songs from other countries' iTunes stores

    Why are songs from other countries' iTunes stores not available for purchasing in the American iTunes store? I found a song that I had been looking for in the French iTunes store, but could not buy it. I was annoyed. Is there any way around it?

    In order to buy from a certain country's iTMS, you do need
    either: a CC with a billing address in that country
    or: an address in that country plus a prepaid card/gift voucher issued by iTMS in that country.
    If you don't meet one of this conditions, there is no solution for you.
    -sorry but the copyright holders wanted it that way; it's their decision to offer a certain track in a certain country or not to offer it.
    Tip; This question on how to buy from another country is asked several times a week in the forums. In the future, I would suggest you do a search on your issue to see, if it has already been answered, that way you don't have to wait quite a long time for a response.

  • WHen I put music onto my devices I will have some songs that will play, while others will be grey and can not be played....also I find that when I purchase an album from iTunes all songs from the album will not be downloaded...

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    how can i download an app from iTunes store, that exists just in a "swiss store". Because my account isn't allowed to download apps from other stores than a slovene. ???

    You have to be in a country, and have a billing address in that country, to download from its store. You can try requesting that the app be added to the Slovenia store, but unless the app's developer/rights-holder agrees to it then Apple won't be able to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

    Hollow stars.... itunes assigns an album average based on my star ratings, but in what scenario do Songs get assigned a hollow star? does itunes acquire info from other media programs or solely from what ive rated in itunes, or does itunes use other peoples ratings... Hollow Star assignment basis?

    If you assign songs a rating an unrated album gets an automatic rating, which you can override by rating it.
    If you assign an album a rating unrated songs get an automatic rating, which you can override by rating them.
    iTunes doesn't import ratings from tags, or third party services. You set them.

  • Hello, my iTunes dates are crashed on my mac, how can I download all my itunes match songs and save on my mac?

    Hello, my iTunes dates are crashed on my mac, how can I download all my itunes match songs and save on my mac?

    Hi mrmoo13!
    You have a couple of options for transferring your music library from one computer to another. First, you can download all of your music that is stored in the cloud on iTunes Match by following the instructions on this page:
    iTunes 11 for Mac: Access all your music anytime, anywhere with iTunes Match
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12284
    You can follow steps listed in the section right here:
    Play or download songs from iCloud
    You can play songs directly from iCloud, or you can download songs so you can play them when you’re not connected to the Internet.
    If a song is available in iCloud, it has a Download button next to it.
    To play the song, double-click it.
    To download the song, click the Download button.
    After you download a song to a computer, it remains in the computer’s iTunes library, even if you turn off iTunes Match.
    To only display downloaded songs in your iTunes library, choose View > Hide Music in the Cloud. This also hides any previous iTunes Store purchases you haven’t downloaded.
    For information about downloading and playing songs on an iOS device, see the documentation for the device.
    In order to make it easier to download all of your music, you can highlight all of the songs in your iTunes Match section and then click download, as mentioned in these instructions.
    You can also choose to transfer the music from your old computer to the new one by following the steps in this article, whcih will give you some other options for doing this transfer:

  • AppleTV home sharing, I can't see my itunes match songs

    I am using a new Apple TV. I set up home sharing, but I am unable to see my itunes match songs. I used my wifes itunes account for the apple TV. I am using my account for the home sharing. I have an itunes match account with a large library. I though that I would be able to use home sharing to access all of my songs. Now I'm having issues. Please help.

  • Ho do I get latest news about songs from other countries?

    I am located in North America, that's why I think my itunes store just give me the latest news about music from North America, but I want to download some songs from other counties too.
    Such as Japan/ Taiwan, is there a way to set my itunes store to show the latest musicfrom other eastern counties? thx!!

    You can look at other stores, but you will not be able to purchase tracks from any iTunes Store other than the Canadian store. The content owners will not allow cross-border sales.

  • Only half of some iTunes Matched songs on my iPhone will play, then audio skips to next song in playlist!

    Several (maybe 5%) of iTunes Matched songs on my iPhone do this... at EXACTLY 1/2 way through the song. 
    EXAMPLE: At 2:25 of a 4:50 long song (Shania Twain - From This Moment) the next song in playlist (Taylor Swift - Tim McGraw) starts as the audio skips to beginning of next song in playlist.  Oddly, Shania's attractive album artwork and title stays up while Taylor's tune plays (?)
    When the timeline for the first Shania song hits the end, the artwork slides to Taylor Swift's CD Cover art and the timer slider adjusts to near the end of that song.
    When I play same songs on the same playlist on iTunes (also downloaded from iTunes Match) this does not occur.
    Does anyone else see this happen or are there any suggestions?
    THANKS

    Hey Guys, from my late model iPhone 4, I am also seeing my iTunes Match songs terminate playing very abruptly ...some won't play at all ...others skip to the next track after 10 seconds. 
    I checked the source files on my iMAC, and they are 100 percent perfect. 
    Tried deleting them, recreating them, signing out and then back into iTunes with Match On & Off, etc ...still no resolution to these problems. 
    Maybe the MATCH product is crashing under it's own weight now?   It used to be good, but now I am not so sure anymore. 
    Please post if you have any solution or suggestions. 
    Thanks!
    Pat
