Setting up iTunes Match on the iPad

I am unable to set up iTunes Match on my iPad

You set up iTunes Match on your computer in iTunes, not on the iPad.

    Same here and this is driving me crazy. I can buy, but can't upgrade. Grrr.

  • Why is not all of my library available on itunes match via the cloud yet it appears on both my ipad and iphone library, Why is not all of my library available on itunes match via the cloud yet it appears on both my ipad and iphone library

    I have set up itunes match usiing my Windows laptop and synced my iphone 5 and ipad 3 with it, but quite a few songs (albums and songs within albums) haven't synced at all. Is this a known issue? Also when I try to update match it takes forever and often tells me that the internet connection has timed out, yet I'm still surfing on other devices etc...

    Hi Michael
    It's not through USB - I know that that is disabled when Match is enabled. An example might deonstrate the issue better:
    I can see Alabama Shakes listed in my artists view on my phone/pad library, but when I open it the songs are all greyed out and won't play. Their is no cloud symbol either. On my laptop, the songs are their and play fine, but have a cloud symbol next to them...
    What do you reckon?

  • How can download all the songs from itunes match to an ipad 2?

    I activate itunes match in my Imac, the process of scan and identify the library songs is finished successfully, after that i activate the itunes match in my ipad,  I need download all the songs in the ipad, I select Music Icon and don't appear the (download all) button in the section of songs,  i have to push the cloud button in each song to download?
    I enter in the section of albums and playlist and in this section the button download all appears. How can i download all the songs to the device?

    I just found the answer by myself.  Instead of clicking Cloud icon one by one, highlight all the songs in Cloud (after sorting by Cloud status) and riight click, download.  Now I am getting all the songs back to my local machine.  I will sync my iOS devices tomorrow and just GET RID OF iTUNES MATCH.  To me, it was a disaster.  Worse than their map app.

  • I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
    On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

  • My apple tv 2 says I can't stream music from my iTunes library on my iMac without settng up iTunes Match. I don't want to set up iTunes match. How can I get back to the pre-Match system which let me just use home sharing to stream music from computer to A

    When I click on the Music tab on my Apple TV 2, a message tells me I have to set up iTunes Match to stream music from my iTunes library on my iMac. I don't want to set up and pay for iTunes Match. How can I get back to the pre-Match system which let me just use home sharing to stream music from computer to Aple TV

    Ditto.
    You need to look for your itunes library under Computers and select it, then music.
    Music column is for web based content not local content, just to confuse everyone.

  • HT4913 If I sign up for iTunes Match, and then turn the iTunes Match on my iPad, will my music library from the iPad that is not currently in iCloud move to the iCloud?

    I have a large music library on my iPad, that is not currently on iCloud or on my main PC. If I sign up for iTunes Match, and then turn the iTunes Match on my iPad, will the music library from the iPad that is not currently in iCloud move to the iCloud? Or will I loose all that music?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Tap the song you wish to download.

    I have set up iTunes Match on only 3 devices (my Windows 7 desktop and 2 iPhones) and am now trying to authorise my new Windows 8 (Toshiba) laptop but I keep failing to authorise the laptop using my one-and-only Apple ID. Does anyone have advice to solve this problem?!

    Hi all.  I can’t tell you how to solve your iCloud 3.x issues.  Heck, I don’t think they’re even solvable.
    But if you had a previous version of iCloud that was working correctly then I can definitely tell you how to solve the “iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 7 PC” problem.  …without even a re-boot.
    Log out of iCloud 3.0 and uninstall it.
    Open My Computer and then open your C:\ drive.  Go to Tools/Folder Options and click on the View tab.  Select the “Show hidden…” radio button and click on OK.
    Open the Users folder.
    Open your user folder
    Open ProgramData (previously hidden folder)
    Open the Apple folder – not the Apple Computer folder.
    Open the Installer Cache folder
    In Details view sort on Name
    Open the folder for the newest entry for iCloud Control Panel 2.x – probably 2.1.2.8 dated 4/25/2013
    Right click on iCloud64.msi and select Install.
    When finished, the synching between iCloud and your PC will be back to working perfectly as before the 3.0 fiasco.  The pictures will be synched to the same Photostream folder as before the “upgrade”.  Now all you need to do is wait until Apple/Microsoft get this thing fixed and working before you try the 3.x upgrade again.
    I think the iCloud 3.0 software was written by the same folks who wrote healthcare.gov with the main difference being that healthcare.gov might eventually be made to work.
    For those of you who hate to go backwards, think of it as attacking to the rear.  Which would you rather have, the frustration of no synching or everything working on an older version?
    Good luck…

  • I downloaded music from iTunes onto my iPad. I enabled iTunes Match on my PC (where most of my music is stored). When I turned on iTunes Match on iPad it said the iPad music library would be replaced.How do I use iTunes Match without losing  iPad music.

    I bought music from iTunes and downloaded it to my iPad. I have enabled iTunes Match on my PC (where most of my music is stored). When I turned on iTunes Match on iPad it said "iTunes Match will replace the music library" on my iPad. All of my iPad music is saved on iCloud, and some of my PC music is on iCloud. If I use iTunes Match will the music previously downloaded on my iPad be lost?
    Thanks!!

    You need to either sync the iPad with iTunes so it will transfer the purchases to the iTunes library or download them from the purchase history. Then let iTM work on the "new" tracks in the library then all the music will be available on the iPad.

  • I have just set up Itunes match on my new iMac. It is saying I can access all my 9000 songs but only the playlist tab is live. Am I missing something?

    Hi
    I have just set up itunes match on my new imac. It is saying I can access all my 9000 songs but only the playlist tab is live - I can't access albums or songs. Am I missing something?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I do not understand your problem. iTunes Match does not change the way iTunes looks. When match process is complete, the match screen tells you how much music you have in the cloud.
    Across the top of screen you have options to select songs, albums, artist, composers etc.
    Suggest that from main menu, select view>show sidebar.

  • If I set up iTunes Match in Canada will it work in the U.S.A?

    If I set up iTunes Match in Canada will it work in the USA?  Thanks.

    They are specific to each country, so no it won't work - Canadian gift cards can only be used in Canada with Canadian iTunes accounts.

  • HT5637 I have iTunes Match,but my iPad still has over 20 gb of music.why is it not  all in the cloud.

    I Have iTunes Match , but my iPad still has over 20gb of music.Why is it not in the cloud.

    With iTunes match, Apple determines which songs in your collection are available in the iTunes Store. Any music with a match is automatically added to iCloud. The songs that aren’t available on iTunes are uploaded.
    You can troubleshoot problems by following the instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4054

  • Does iTunes match remove the songs from my local computer.

    I hope I ask this right?
    My Itunes libaray is stored on my iMac
    I'm not really looking to get my entire library onto my IOS devices. I have them all set up manually to my liking:)
    However I would like to have my entire libarary avaliable to be used on my Macbook Air. I travel to different offices from day to day but all are connected to WiFi. The Air while amazing does have limited space on it so it would be great if I could just listen to my library through the cloud and not have to use up space on the Air.
    My concern with this is I also want to be able to manage my songs manually on my IOS Devices. Will I still be able to sync my iPhone to my iMac at home and just add one or two songs?
    Are the songs on my iMac still there? . When I play songs on my iMac are they playing from the harddrive or from the cloud? Its not really an issue but just so I better understand how it works.....imagine if I was concerned about the amount of data I was using each month.(from my internet provider). Do the songs still play from my iMac desktop or are they playing from the cloud?
    I guess it all comes down to this. iTunes works perfect for me right now. When I add songs to my iMac, when I sync to iPhone or iPad. I really only want this so I can listen from the cloud on my Air.....but if it changes how I do everything else. I'm less sure I want this.
    Appreciate the help:)

    Simply do not enable iTunes Match on the iOS devices and syncing behavior will not change.

    Yes. The files on the computer are not touched.

    Enable iTM on the MBA and  you will be able to stream from the cloud as long as you have a network connection.

  • 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.
