Serrurier Antibes : why is itunes match stopping me from downloading paid content ?

So I have been using my apple ID on my Mac since I bought it. I don't know what itunes match is, but it is stopping me from downloading shows I have purchased via my apple TV onto my Mac and my iPad. it says my Mac is already associated with another ID but it isn't! http://serruriersantibes.fr/

Thinking about this further, I realized that iTunes is preventing one from having ANY playlists which depend on others, and that's a really tragic thing.  What sold me 100% on Apple was being able to set up Smart Playlists which are mixes of Podcasts (unplayed),  5Star songs (least recently played), and 1-4 Star Songs (Least Recently Played).   That the software allowed one to do this showed that APple had some people who REALLY love music, that they cared about when and how the music was played.  
But I'm wondering if the people in charge of the new iTunes update don't play around with Smart Playlists to this degree.

  • Why has itunes match stopped working

    i was uploading music onto itunes match this morning and everything was fine after i had finished i looked on my phone and iphone match had vanished now all i get it the cloud sign then no music
    i have rest my phone and restored it and still nothing i cannot find anythiing on the threads that work please help.

    I just had a 1 hour talk with applecare about this.  I was esclated through several levels. 
    They are not reporting an issue with the iTunes Match service but I can nolonger add a device to iTunes match and they have no idea why.
    I still have an open ticket.  But no known resolution... So I am betting it is a server side issue that Apple is not reporting.

  • Itunes match stopped working

    My iTunes Match stopped working on my iPhone 4.  I was using it all day yesterday, and in the evening, it stopped!  Now, I can't play any song off the cloud OR any that was saved to my iPhone.  Does anyone know why?  Did I do something?

    This happened to me today, as well. Songs in the cloud would not play when selected on either my iPhone or my computer. Turning off iTunes Match, then turning it back on fixed the problem. I had to do this separately for both the phone and the computer. I hope that this helps someone.

  • Why does iTunes Match download songs that I skip?

    I haven't seen this question posted yet, but feel free to direct me to any pertinent posts.
    I've been using iTunes Match for the last couple days, and all in all I really enjoy the service. There is one issue that I've yet to see addressed on these boards yet though; why is iTunes Match downloading songs that I skip? I listen to all my music in random, so occasionally there will be a song I just don't want to hear at the moment. I assumed that if I don't listen to a song completely that it would not be downloaded to my device. Not true apparently. I was able to use about half a gig of data in a few hours just by skipping songs. Every song that was skipped, even if I didn't hear a single second of it, was downloaded (at an average size of 5-8 MB). I sincerely hope this is just a bug and not a 'feature'.
    Any insight on this would be appreciated.

    I have noticed this too. I filled up my phone VERY fast yesterday.
    and deleting is not easy, lots of left swipe DELETE action, took a while.

  • Itunes match stopped in step 2 3188 of 4525 checked. how do i recover?

    You've tried tapping on the Collections button at the top of the bookshelf to see if they are in a different collection ? If not then do you have a copy of them in the Books part of your computer's iTunes library (though PDFs aren't iTunes purchases, if you've done 'transfer purchases' whilst they were on the iPad then they should have copied over) ?
    ibooks and PDFs aren't included in a device's backup, so if they aren't in your computer's iTunes library and/or you don't have your own backup copy of them then they won't be on your computer (for info there isn't an iBooks app/program for a Mac or PC).

  • Itunes match stop to check songs only one song before the end

    Itunes Match stop checking songs just one before reaching the last one. I.E checked 3201 but it should 3201 songs checked??

    Hi - You have made sure the song plays entirely on your actual machine, right?
    Additionally, if you select the song and GET INFO it will open a new window. Check the OPTIONS tab and make sure the song START TIME and END TIME jive with the actual length of the song. I've somehow altered this incorrectly when attempting to change the volume.
    Also, you can check the preferences panel, the PLAYBACK tab and set the CROSS FADE at none.
    If neither of these do it, sounds like the actual song file maybe damaged whereas your computer can read/play it yet it's truncated or damaged just enough that your iPod isn't syncing the entire song. You can figure that out by simply comparing the file sizes.
    You may also consider updating thru 10.4.11. I know this included a lot of iPod software updates. I'm currently running iPod software 1.0.3.
    Good Luck, chris

  • Why does iTunes Match cause iTunes to crash ?

    Why does iTunes Match cause iTunes to crash ?

    My problem is similar.  It began right after I allowed an Adobe update to run.  (Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.45.2 is recorded in my Registry.) Now every single website I try to open triggers a window (see below) and repeats many times.
    It makes no difference whether I "Allow" or not.  I think it runs this window for every flash object on that website.  It is occurring while I enter this post!
    It makes using the Internet MOST challenging.  Surely this is causing major problems for everyone.
    I have IE8 on Windows Vista.
    Here's the text from the message:
    "A website wants to open web content using this program on your computer.
    This program will open outside of Protected Mode. Internet Explorer's Protected Mode helps protect your computer. If you do not trust this website, do not open this program.
    Name:  Adobe Flash Player
    Publisher: Adobe Systems Incorporated
    (Checkbox) Do not show me the warning for this program again.
    buttons:  Allow         Do Not Allow"
    Should I appeal to Microsoft or Adobe for a solution?  Is is possible to install the previous version?
    Thanks for any wisdom.

  • ITunes Match deleted songs from my hard drive. I had to re-rip them. How can I stop this from happening?

    iTunes Match deleted songs from my hard drive. How can I prevent this from happening if I try it again?

    iTunes Match can in no way be considered a backup service, this is due to the inexact nature of the 'matching process' (see https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4112, for more detail).
    Loss of files from a Disk is certainly possible through media failure.  However, the extent of iTunes Match capacity is solely to influence the content of the cloud.  Perhaps there was a coincident, or pre-existing, failure of the disk which was simply exposed by the iTunes Match interrogation of the disk content.
    There are certainly other services which depending upon your goal may work well.  For example, Google Play with gBeats IOS App works very well.  My use of Match is to synchronise across several computers and to drive Apple TV and an IOS device - other IOS devices still use sync for specific music and are complimented by gBeats for access to the full library when local mobile signal strength is high.
    The strong advice to always start with a secure backup remains but if your primary concern is iTunes Match interfering with physical disk content you can relax - it simply does not have this ability.  (Apology to Sherlock, further investigation required).

  • HT3209 Why in the heck can I not download an HD video if my monitor isn't capable of displaying the movie.   My iPhone can and will be downloaded to the phone.   So why stop me from downloading the movie?    Have I lost this freedom to download HD?

    Never mind.   I bought the movie through my 4S phone.  
    iTunes is beginning to really suck with their latest version.

  • How do I stop duplicates from downloading?

    My iTunes library on my Mac is syncing transfers from my iPad and for some reason after the sync, my Mac started downloading some of those purchases from iTunes automatically. What gives? Do I have to download them in order to delete the duplicates or can I stop them from downloading? How can I prevent this from happening in the future?

    You can't stop the download, only pause it. Let it finish.

    Downloading a pre-ordered item
    When a pre-order item becomes available, you will receive an email letting you know your pre-order is available for download.
    If you've enabled iTunes to automatically download prepurchased content, then your pre-order content may already be downloaded to your library. If not, simply click the download link provided within your email notification, and your pre-order content will begin to download. Alternatively you can use the "Check for Available Downloads" feature in iTunes on your computer by choosing Store > Check for Available Downloads to begin downloading your pre-order.
    I would contact iTunes if clicking on the link did not results in it downloading to your iPod.

  • I accidentally purchased three songs when I clicked on just one to purchase and I don't know what to do to stop then from downloading or to get them off my iPod..

    I accidentally purchased three songs when I clicked on just one to purchase and I don't know what to do to stop then from downloading or to get them off my iPod..

    Purchases are considered final, but if they were accidental purchases then you could try the 'report a problem' link to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : 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
    If they've downloaded onto your iPod then you should be able to delete them from it by swiping/dragging across them from right-to-left on the Songs selection screen in the Music app

  • How do I stop things from downloading onto my iPhone and iPad?
