Match is off but all songs show in Music app

I have turned off Match but all songs still show up in Music app. This makes the music app very slow because Match has lots of songs from the iMac.
I have a iPhone 4S. I restored iOS and I still have the problem.
I also have an iPhone 5 logged in to the same iTunes account and it does not have this problem.

Are you sure they're not really there? Streaming on an iPhone isn't really streaming. Even though it still shows the little cloud, it actually downloads the song until space is needed. If you turn off Match or turn off
"Show all music", these files will appear. If you haven't run low on space, everything you've ever listened to will be there.
If you actually want to delete all the music on your phone, try
Settings->General->Usage->Music
then do "Edit" or right-swipe to delete it all.
On the other hand, this really shouldn't slow things down. I have an iPhone 4 and a huge Matched music collection, and it's pretty fast.

I downloded music using a different apple id on my ipad then i changed my id to match my iphone but it isnt showing my music i bought with my other id on icloud. how can i get my music back!?

i downloded music using a different apple id on my ipad then i changed my id on my ipad to match my iphone but it isnt showing my music i bought with my old ipad apple id on icloud. how can i get my music back!?

It won't show on iCloud because iCloud is associated with a specific Apple ID. The music should be on your computer's iTunes and a Sync will put it on the iPad (be sure to configure iTunes properly). If you want to get it from iCloud, I think that you need to temporarily change your ID back to the old one but I've never done that myself.

I have an iPhone 5. It says I have 537 songs on it but every song shows the cloud icon. I have gone through every suggested step I've googled and deleted songs but settings still shows them. When it's plugged into my mac itunes shows it only has 42 songs.

Hi ellafromva,
From your description, it sounds like you may have iTunes Match activated; you may find the following article helpful:

No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
That would depend on what you are trying to do.

Windows 8 or Windows RT? iTunes won't run on Windows RT. It should run on Windows 8. Use the appropriate installer from an account with administrator privileges.
Windows System Requirements
PC with a 1GHz Intel or AMD processor and 512MB of RAM
Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
400MB of available disk space
Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store

I now have 4 itouchs, 1 ipad mini, and three iphones for my own family members. What's the bet way for me to setup itunes so that we can all share the same music, apps, movies, shows, etc?

I now have 4 itouches, 1 ipad mini and 3 iphones in use by my direct family. What's the best way for me to set things up so that we can all share the same music, apps, movies, shows etc?
I would prefer to have one account to input dollars which allows all the users (my direct family) to share and buy things.
Can we all have different user ID's however share the same account?

I'll try to help a bit.
ITunes match space is different to icloud space. With iTunes match you get storage for 25,000 non iTunes purchased tracks and other than a limit for individual file size, there is no memory limit.
You can turn match on individuallyon each device (I have it turned off on my iPod but turned on on my iPad and iPhone). When you turn it on then you get access to all the tracks, and in my experience any playlists I create have transferred over very well. I understand that some people have had trouble with playlists though.
I'm not quite clear with exactly what you mean regarding cleaning up your library, but be careful about using Match for this. There is no guarantee that matched songs will be exactly the same version as your own copy, due to some mismatches, so you could find some problems there. Personall, I am cleaning up my library before matching, but I am rather particular about keeping my library the way I want it. If you aren't as fussed then match could be the answer.
Hope that helped.

How do I turn off the default radio in my music app. I cannot play my playlist until it first defaults to radio and then I have to start all over. this is very tedious!!!

This got me curious when I first saw it... It does indeed seem very Un-Apple-like (at least historically) to prevent a user from customizing their own device - Mac or iDevice - but today I'm unsure. I cannot grasp how a UX designer could leave a simple "OFF" switch out of the control panel. Another thing that Music Data Streaming does is eat up your Data Plan.
This May not be the exact issue as you describe, but seems to solve an issue of a Radio Playlist in iTunes resuming where it left off from the last use...

Re: How do you turn off i tunes radio on the ipad air once it starts playing songs? in response to Betty91545
Play last song on list, songs will then stop. Works for me on iPad. Haven't tried yet on iPhone.
It is likely that THIS may be part of the real reason to push the iTunes Radio feature - revenue stream (nobody remembers "Payola?"):
Apple is more beholden to the shareholders than in the old days

Ok, I have deleted EVERYTHING off my 16gb ipad. Photos, music, apps. All I have are the standard apps. It says I have used 11gb and only have 1.6 left. When I first bought it I had up to 4 movies and lots of apps, no problems. What's going on please!?

How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.
How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

- 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.

Whenever I open the iTunes store, the home pages of all of the sections (Music, App Store etc.) are BLACK. They still have clickable hyperlinks, but I can't see what I'm clicking. Any pagess accessed through the drop-down menus (even iHelp) or by randomly clicking I can't see.

Thanks but it's just my desktop that doesn't see it though. My notebook sees it everytime, even at the same exact time that my desktop doesn't see it. For example yesterday when I was typing up this post, I was typing up the post on my notebook because my desktop didn't see the router. I don't think it has anything to do with the router actually, but I wanted to see if anyone on here has encountered this issue before. Other forums have similar issues but I've tried all of the fixes I found elsewhere and they didn't work.
Any other ideas?
Thanks!

ITunes Match is on but all my music is on iPhone?

Hi,
I've subscribed to iTunes Match, and successfully matched all my music. However, when I turn on iTunes Match on my iPhone, all my music is still on my phone. I've tried syncing my iPhone to iTunes a few times. However, when the sync is done each time, none of the songs on my phone have the iCloud icon next to them. The usage meter in iTunes for the iPhone shows it has all the music still on it. Finally, when I turn on Airplane Mode, I can still play any song on. Can someone tell me what step I've missed to get iTunes Match to work on my iPhone?
Thanks,
Jason Mazzotta

On your phone, go to Settings -> Music. At the top, there should be a switch to turn iTunes Match on and off. Once you turn it on, it should give you a notice that doing so will erase all music on the device. Tell it that's fine, and then it'll activate it. To see everything you have, and not just what's on the phone, make sure to set the "Show All Music" switch to On once it appears.
If you're still having trouble, try hitting the Settings button in the top left and then go back into the Music settings and ensure the option took. I had to do this 3-4 times the first time I checked it after turning on iTunes Match.

ITunes match creates duplicates of all songs a computer upgrade

So I had a mac mini and over the summer I deleted all my music on my computer and redownloaded using itunes match to get the higher quality for a number of my older rips.
Fast forward to last month when I upgraded to a macbook air. Instead of downloading all my music from the cloud again, I just copied it over from my mac mini (running 10.6.8 server) to the new air (10.8) using the add to library option from within itunes.
Then I put in my apple id and itunes match info into iTunes and it did it's thing. The problem now is that I have two copies of every song show up in itunes, one on my computer and one in the cloud. Why didn't iTunes match just "match" the songs? Why is it giving me thousands of duplicates? Should I just delete all the ones from the cloud and run match again?
Thanks so much for your help with this, and sorry if this is an issue that has already been resolved, but I couldn't find anything.

Also, every five seconds iTunes Match decides to run through the three steps again, doesn't actually change anything, just goes rough the steps until complete. I click on artists or albums or anything else and then iTunes match pops up and runs through the three steps again.
