My iPhone 4S needs ages to download a song from iTunes Match... i have a fast wirelesslan connection!
may the problem is that my pc still upload songs to iCloud?

The problem you describe sounds like a bad network speed. Did you say you're uploading stuff to iTunes Match at the same time you attempt a download? Cause that might be the cause.

  • HT4914 If I download a song from iTunes Match, will it be locked by DRM to only be able to be opened by my Apple ID?

    I'm reading through all of the iTunes Match literature, but there's one question that isn't addressed.
    I know that song purchased from the iTunes store will be locked by DRM to only be allowed to be played by my Apple ID through iTunes (and I cna use my Apple ID on something like up to 5 devices?), and if I have songs in my library that are locked by DRM, they will not be uploaded through iTunes Match (which I assume means only songs locked by DRM tied to accounts OTHER than the Apple ID I'd be using to get iTunes Match would not be uploaded).
    However, once all of the music is Matched or uploaded to iTunes Match, there's no information as to whether the music would be locked to DRM tied to my Apple ID if / when I want to download it.

    Music from the iTunes Store, whether obtained in the last couple of years from the iTunes Store directly or via iTunes Match, is not copy protected. If you have old DRM tracks from the iTunes Store, they will be upgraded to the higher-quality DRM-free versions when iTunes Match uploads them as long as they were obtained through the Apple ID you are using for iTunes Match. I believe that any copy-protected tracks locked to a different iTunes Store account will be ignored by iTunes Match, though I'm not certain. Someone else may be able to confirm or refute that.
    You do need your Apple ID to play or download tracks from iTunes Match, of course.
    Regards.

  • Can't download certain songs from iTunes match

    Last night I extacted a full album from a CD to my PC laptop via iTunes.
    All track names were detected by gracenote and all 12 songs were exacted and showing up in iTunes except the artwork was missing for some reason?
    I upload all 12 songs to iTunes match.
    Today, on my desktop, I turned on iTunes match and I can see the album and all 12 songs.
    There is a download button next to each track and I attempted to download all 12 songs.  Most of them downloaded except 4 songs for some reason?
    The download button is NOT greyed out, it's black, but when I click on it iTunes does nothing.  The songs were not downloaded from iTunes match and I have no idea why?  No error message....it just doesnt want to download those 4 songs.
    Troubleshooting: 
    -Turned off itunes match.  Restarted iTunes and turned iTunes Match back on.  Tried to download the songs again, download button is black but same problem.
    -Signed out of my Apple account and singed back on.  Tried to download the songs again, download button is black but same problem.
    -Deauthorized computer, re-authorized computer, updated iTunes match.  Tried to download the songs again, download button is black but same problem.
    I don't get it?  Why would some of the tracks download but not all of them when the entire track list is present.  12/12 songs are showing up but iTunes Match would only let me download 8/12 songs. 

    Also, I am running iTunes 11.1.3 on Windows 7 Pro x64 for both my laptop and desktop.

  • How do I download my songs from itunes match?

    How do I get my songs back?

    You should just need to turn iTunes Match on for them to download. If you state a littel more about what is going on we should be able to help better.

  • Download select songs from iTunes Match

    I am an iTunes Match user. On the computer with which I sync my iPod nano, I do not want to hold my entire library. However, I would like to download select songs and/or playlists from the cloud to transfer to my nano. Is there any easy way to do this?

    What happens if you click the cloud with the down arrow icon next to a track?

  • Can you Download all Songs from ITunes Match onto Computer without having to click every cloud

    I am preparing to cancel my iTunes match service as I have moved from Australia to the UK and want the UK iTunes store but I cannot transfer over untill ITunes Match is canceled and before I do this I want to put all cloud music onto my ITunes and wondered if there was a quick way to do this. I don't want to click on every cloud icon.
    iTunes is the PC version

    Go to Edit > Select All. This will select all the songs in your library. Then right-click and select "Download."

  • Why do I need to re-download my songs from iCloud if they're already in my cloud?

    Why do I need to re-download my songs from iCloud if they're already in my cloud?
    I have iCloud on my iPhone 4S with iOs7 and I have both added all my Music on my iTunes to my phone manually and also have them on my cloud.  Under iCloud settings on my phone I have "Show All Music" toggled "On".  When I'm driving and want to listen to a certain song, most of the time the song I want is grayed out, unable to be played by my phone, and the only option I have is to "Re-download" it from my iCloud--I get this little picture of a gray cloud with a red downward arrow displayed and my Music takes forever to load.  I also get this annoying pop up message telling my I might be subject to additional data fees for .....re downloading music I've already downloaded.  Its' annoying.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Content needs to be on your phone before it can be played, if it isn't you need to download it. If you see content with a cloud icon next to it, it's telling you it isn't on your phone.

  • HT4914 can you download songs from itunes match from the cloud to your iPhone ie for times when you dont have internet connection

    can you download songs from itunes match from the cloud to your iPhone ie for times when you dont have internet connection?

    Unless you have an Internet connection you cannot access iCloud. You can download your music from iCloud to store permanently on your iPhone, but only when you have an Internet connection to do so.

    Downloaded a song from iTunes on my iPhone but only shows on my iPad.  Setup for same iCloud.

    If you are syncing music to the iPhone automatically, you won't be able to play tracks on the iPhone from iTunes, the music will be grayed out.
    You can play them in iTunes if you Manually Manage the music on your iPhone though.
    You could also Transfer the purchases from your iPhone to a computer.

    Trying to download a song from iTunes, I get a message asking me to update payment details because it claims I am "using a new device."  I am not using a new device.  How do I know if this is genuine?

    There isn't a phone number for iTunes Support.
    If you've forgotten your answers to your security questions then you can get them reset : If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions
    If you have a credit card on your account then its details have to complete - and asking for their details is also a way of checking that you have a valid billing address in that country. As long as you are buying content for yourself and not trying to gift content (you can't use your balance for gifting) then the purchase price (plus any applicable taxes) should be deducted from your balance. If it's not then you contact iTunes Support :  http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • How do I download songs from iTunes Match for offline or spotty coverage?

    I have a 64GB iPhone and want to be able to DOWNLOAD songs from iTunes match for use when I have spotty 3G coverage (or no coverage, or only expensive coverage, or on an airplane). How can I do this? Right now iTunes is not using any of my data storage on my phone for previously downloaded songs for future use (caching).

    What you want to do actually has nothing to do with iTunes Match. What you need to do is enable automatic downloads in iTunes. Open iTunes prefs > Store and select the option for, at least, "music" and click OK. Now any music you buy will be downloaded to your iTunes library automatically. But iTunes will need to be running for this to happen.
