Some songs Downloaded to iPhone 4S via iTunes Match Skip

Hello -
I am using the following versions of iTunes and iPhone 4S:
iTunes: 10.07.0.21
iPhone: 6.0.1
I recently bought an album in physical format (i.e. Compact Disc) via an online retailer. When the album arrived, I imported it into my iTunes library. Once imported, I selected "Store > Update iTunes Match." Once the album was matched, I deleted the copy from the library and retained the one I had just matched on iCloud. I have used this process countless times in the past to match my music collection and iTunes Match has worked as expected (with the exception of the occasional album artwork not being displayed).
Unfortunately, I am experiencing some strange issue now. When I download this particular album to my iPhone using iTunes Match, the first track starts and immediately skips (e.g. the title of the track is displayed very briefly but no sound is heard) to either the second or third track. What's odd is that the song plays as expected when streamed, and occasionally works when I have no other albums downloaded to the iPhone. After spending $25.00 on iTunes Match and purchasing this new album, I find this bug to be very frustrating as it renders my new album somewhat unlistenable.
I have tried the following procedures in the hopes of fixing this issue with no success:
1. I Have verified Shuffle is not on.
2. I have deleted the album from iTunes Match and rematched from my library.
3. I have turned iTunes Match off, deleted all music locally, rebooted device, turned iTunes Match on, and redownloaded the album.
4. I have restored my iPhone from backup.
In addition to the above steps, I contacted Apple Support and have had a useless mail thread with a representative who clearly doesn't read my e-mails. I have told the representative in each mail I've sent that I am using iTunes Match when experiencing this issue, yet in her recent mail she tries to upsell me by telling me "Unfortunately you can only redownload songs you have purchased. Have you heard of iTunes Match?"
This is really frustrating me. I evangelize the product and feature constantly and to have it behave in such a broken manner is extremely irritating, especially when the support mail has been completely useless. If anyone could please provide some guidance I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks,

  • Songs downloaded on iPhone mssing from iTunes

    Hi, I downloaded a double-album recently on my iPhone and came back to find that half of the album didn't show up on iTunes after I'd synced. I tried checking for downloads, re-syncing and re-logging into iTunes to no avail. The music is no longer on my iPhone either, but it was the first time I downloaded. Any tips?
    Also, extra credit question: Why do some of the albums I buy on the iPhone appear in iTunes without Artist designations, only as albums. For example, Blur doesn't show up in the Artist list but 'The Best of Blur' shows up in Albums. This has happened twice now and doesnt ruin my day, but confuses me.

    Have you tried checking iTunes' Purchased folder? In order for me to synch music to my iPhone, I have to right-click on the songs from the Music section, and select "Add to Playlist," and then choose "Purchased."
    After the music is added, I usually right-click again and choose "Get Album Artwork," and then, back on the iPhone screen, I select the "Music" tab, and then make sure my "Purchased" folder is checked off, and then I hit "Synch."

  • How Can I Tell if a Song on My iPhone is in iTunes Match?

    I can't tell if my songs are in iTunes Match or not as on my phone scrolling through the list there is no cloud icon but I do have iTunes Match turned on my computer and on my iphone.

    Once a track has been processed in iTunes there will be no cloud icon next to the track as long as it is on your local HDD. This means it is "in the cloud." To see the status of the tracks switch to Song view and pull down View > View Options and select "iCloud Status" then close the small window.

    Hey renie1515,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    When you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID. This article describes how to manage these associations.
    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627
    Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days.
    Note: Removing a device from your Apple ID does not override the 90-day timer. You must wait 90 days from the day the device was first associated with your Apple ID before it can be associated with another Apple ID.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • TS3159 Some songs that I've bought on iTunes won't play on my iPhone 3GS even though they used to and they will still play on iTunes.  Anyone know what I can do to get these songs to play on my iPhone again?

    Some songs that I've bought on iTunes won't play on my iPhone 3GS even though they used to and they will still play on iTunes.  Anyone know what I can do to get these songs to play on my iPhone again?  Please help!

    No, I haven't figured it out.  And no one from Apple has contacted me to help.  Very frustrating.  Sure makes me want to not buy music on iTunes and just buy CD's.
    Do you have a 3GS too?  Maybe it's something with that phone??

    i downloaded a CD then I got message that some songs may already be in my iTunes did i want to replace them.  i said Yes.  Now my CD is totally blank.  Why?

    I should mention that, for the first problem, I do make sure that my new tracks are stored in the folder where I told iTunes that my music is in. Also, when I say the cataloging of my library stops short of cataloging all my songs, I have tried leaving the computer unattended for days (my computer's sleep mode is disabled). It always stops before cataloging all of my music regardless of whether I am doing something else while iTunes is cataloging, or if I just let iTunes be the only program that's open during the cataloging process.

    Download it separately to your hard disk, then update from there (use shift-click on the update button for Windows, alt-clik fro Mac.

    You have posted to the iTunes Match forum, which your question does not seem to be related to. Is your question concerning iTunes Match or syncing with iTunes via USB?

  • Uploading songs to iCloud via iTunes Match from multiple computers?

    I've already setup match on my Windows 7 Desktop, and have uploaded iTunes match and everything worked out well there.
    The problem I have arises when I connect my second device (OS X Lion laptop) to the same iTunes match account. The library appears and I can download songs from iCloud just fine, but iTunes match does not try to upload music from the 2nd library that did not exist on the first.
    Is this a known feature limitation? Was iTunes match only designed to upload from one and deposit on many? or is it upload from all download to all?

    Thanks Mike.
    I also called Apple support and got the same answer. Theoretically it should work, but if it isn't a few things might help:
    1. try re-associating the iTunes account to the 2nd source
    2. try updating the icloud via: Store -> Update iTunes Match
    3. try removing the songs from your iLibrary (you may or may not get a "Delete from iCloud", even if the songs are not showing up in iCloud, and then re-add to your library by finding the files via Finder and dragging them into the library.
    The 3rd step solved my problem. Apple support said this may be an issue but the manual re-addition is what fixed it for me.
    Also, there is a 25,000 song cap and 250mb/file cap on any uploads.
    Good luck others,

  • I have just bought a new laptop, i am trying to sync my songs on my iphone to my itunes, but it says i can only sync with 1 itunes, any way round this?

    iv just bought a new laptop, i am trying to sync my songs on my iphone to my itunes, but it says it can only be sync with 1 itunes, any way around this?

    The iPhone like all iDevices is not a storage device, it is merely a mirror of the content in the library to which it is synced.
    If you wish to sync to a new computer, the first step is to copy or move the iTunes media library from the old computer to the new computer.  This can be done via the network or by using an external hard drive.
    Once the library has been moved, simply sync to the new computer.

  • How come some previously downloaded tracks wont play in itunes 11.1.3, and there is no option to download again

    How come some previously downloaded tracks wont play in itunes 11.1.3 and there is no option to download again?

    Hey KMK14,
    I understand you are having issues with a few tracks in iTunes. The best troubleshooting step may be to delete the song from your library, and re-download using iTunes in the Cloud (if available in your country).
    For more information, see the following:
    Songs in iTunes may not play back completely
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4357
    Symptoms
    Occasionally, if a song purchased from the iTunes Store on a Mac or PC was not downloaded completely, the song may not play back fully. The song may abruptly stop during playback, and iTunes may start playing the next song in your library or playlist.
    Resolution
    If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, try the following steps to resolve the issue:
    1. Delete the purchased song that is exhibiting the problem from your iTunes library.
    2. Click on the Purchased link in the iTunes Store to view your previously purchased music.
    3. Download your previously purchased song from this list.
    Note: iTunes in the Cloud, which allows you to download previously purchased songs from the iTunes Store, is not available in every country. Learn if iTunes in the Cloud is offered in your country.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • My computer says it can't copy some songs to my iPhone because my computer isn't authorized, but it is.

    My computer says it can't copy some songs to my iPhone because my computer isn't authorized, but it is.

    Hi Sonnova,
    Do you happen to have more than one Apple ID? If you've authorised your computer using the one you're signed into then the most likely cause is that the iTunes purchases were made on another Apple ID.
    To check you bought them on the Apple ID you're signed into, you can go into iTunes, click on Store and View My Account. From there you should have a Purchase History option where you can check the songs were bought on that account.
    If you have another Apple ID then try to sign into that one (sign out of current one and into new one under Store in iTunes), then Transfer Purchases again and you should have no issues.
    Hope this helps.

  • I accidentally erased some songs from my iPhone? Can I get them back?

    I accidentally erased some songs from my iPhone, but can I get them back?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you made a Time Machine backup before deleting the applications, you can recover them from your backup. Just go to the Applications folder, and open the Time Machine app, so you will be able to recover the applications just navigating through your backups.
    However, there are some applications that won't work after doing this, because they require other system files. In this case, you will have to download the apps again from the Internet and install them using the installer
