Tricky situation - itunes with match and accounts

Hi All,
Here's my situation:
apple ID 1 - tied to my company credit card. I buy apps, use icloud to sync contacts etc between my iphone and ipad. Works great but I'm not that bothered about icloud as I'm not a power contact/message etc user and could just backup to my imac which I am typing this on
apple ID 2 - my gf's iphone (not relevant at this point). icloud switched off.
Now I decided I wanted to make a new apple ID for my music collection so I could access it all from iphone, ipad and my gf could access it from hers.  I made apple ID 3, used another credit card and spent about a month importing my cds to the imac!  Painful but a labour of love, or something like that..
I enabled itunes match, then it said turn on itunes match on your phone.  This was already on, but associated with apple ID 1.  So there is a problem there.  I deleted my apple ID 1 icloud account then put in apple ID 3 but then I realised I would not be able to use apple ID 1 to sync my contacts etc. So I went to music and then it said I had to transfer something with this device and could only do this once every 90 days!  I was a bit scared by this so went back and deleted the icloud and set it back to apple ID 1.  Then I did some reading and started again (meanwhile itunes match is still very much busy with the matching and uploading etc) and set store to apple ID 1 - icloud to apple ID 3 and went to settings, music - activated itunes match and it said I wasn't currently subscribed to itunes match (and I double checked cloud was set to apple ID 3).
It's all a bit much really. Anyone have any tips on this please?

Ok have played with it a bit.
At the moment I have itunes match working but if I use a different account for store than the one I use for the cloud, when using itunes match it says I am not subscribed.  I thought you were supposed to be able to use different account for itunes store and cloud?

  • Sharing itunes with different user accounts

    I just got Windows Vista. I have the latest version of Itunes. I'm trying to set it up so that my wife and I can share songs with different user accounts in Windows. I followed all the instructions. I moved the iTunes music folder to a public folder. But everytime I log off my account and return, itunes can't find the song files. Any suggestions?

    They can be transferred to another iTunes library but not another iTunes account.
    Just copy them.

  • My iTunes is creating duplicates of playlists and hanging up. running latest version of lion, and iTunes using match and iCloud. please help. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes.  deleted all library files and is doing same thing.

    I am runing lion and latest version of itunes.  I have match on, home sharing on and using icloud.  my itunes started hanging up and required me to force quit.  then upon restart of itunes and restart of computer itunes would take upwards of 15 minutes to open and was using >90% of CPU and would be lagging in response if responding at all one of the playlists I had created on my ipad had over a hundred copies of the same playlist.  after repeated restarts I uninstaled itunes and reinstalled.  this didnt rectify the problem.  I assumed library file had somehow become corrupt so I deleted library files, reimported all my music and synced with genius and match.  and let the computer go over night. when I woke in morning all my music was back but I had all the extra playlists again and itunes is hogging all the cpu and was minimally responsive and hanging up after each click. 
    I thought this might be a virus or something but installed ESET cypersecurity did a complet scan with no threats found.  I am at a total loss and do not know where to go from here.  I hope one of you can assist.  Thanks!

    I had this exact issue.  Spent over an hour on the phone with apple support, they couldn't resolve.  Here is what I ended up doing, that worked.
    1.  Turned iTunes match off on all my iOS devices
    2.  Deleted the offending playlists from the iOS device they originated on
    3.  Started iTunes, let it run (literally) for an hour before it became responsive.  First thing I did, before clicking anywere else was disable iTunes match.  If I clicked anywhere, it would clock for another hour.
    4.  Let iTunes run overnight, by morning it had cleaned out the repeating play lists.  This got my Mac/iTunes back to an operable state.
    5.  Restore iPhones from backup in iTunes.
    What was causing my issue was a single playlist that was created on an iPhone, then suddenly showed up with several thousand duplicates on my other iPhone.  The culprit playlist did not, for some reason, duplicate itself on my two iPads.  Apple support seemed to think it was because the problem iPhone tried to sync the playlist to iCloud over and over again unsuccessfully, then it finally went through and populated the thousands of blank/failed playlists which then tried to propigate to iTunes and my other iOS devices.  Seems like a reasonable theory.
    I have not yet re-enabled iTunes match.  So, no idea what will happen if I decide to go back down that rabbit hole.

  • Will updating my iPad on an iTunes with a different account delete my apps?

    My mom bought this iPad and created an iTunes account for it, and has since never touched it. I want to update it, but it's not synced to my computer nor are all the purchases on my account. As far as I know, it has never been synced to a computer since its purchase. I use it daily, and there's a ton of content on here that I can't risk losing. In order to retain my content during the update, do I have to sync it to a computer whose iTunes is the same account as the iPad? Thanks.

    Not quite that simple. Syncing transfers data from the iTunes library to the iPad. And if there's nothing in the iTunes library, that's what you end up with in your iPad...  You need to transfer your Mum's iTunes library to your new computer before you sync.

  • Appletv with Match and ALAC

    I have a ton of CD's imported to iTunes on my PC in ALAC (lossless) format.  I also have converted my many vinyl albums to .wav files and have imported them into iTunes as well (actually made them mp3's first).  I decided to sign up with Match, thinking I probably wouldn't be losing any audio quality on the vinyl albums and maybe gaining some on the ones that had clicks and pops and were matched.  I expected that the ALAC versions of my CD's would go straight to the AppleTV and play wonderful sound through my home theater setup.  After being unimpressed with some of the sound and subsequently getting an education by reading Communities discussions, I now realize that the AppleTV streams from the cloud in AAC format to deliver audio to AppleTV, so it seems like I can't listen to CD quality through AppleTV if I am signed up for Match.  Question is - is there any way that I can deliver ALAC content to AppleTV when it's available and only download via Match when ALAC is not available?  I also have a NAS device that I could use if it'd help.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Yes you can do that but it isn't automatic, you will need to play your non AAC audio from the computers section on the Apple TV, so that it plays direct from your library.

  • Mapping with Match and Merge operater giving ORA-06550 error while deploy..

    Created a simplet mapping to source from Customer table to tstcustomer table thru' Match and Merge operator. The mapping validated successful but giving ORA-06550 line x column y error while deploying the mapping.
    It is a simple mapping consisting of source Customer table, Match and Merge operator, tstcustomer target table.
    Could anyone advise me on how to resolve this?

    The test mapping basically consists of :
    source table - sh.customers
    target table - tstcustomers (similar to sh.customers)
    Match-Merge operator.
    The mapping validation was successful but when attempt was made to deploy, its giving errors starting with ORA-06550.
    I saved the code and executed thru' SQL Plus and the error details are as follows:

    For your info, the same mapping without Match-Merge Operator is getting deployed and executed successfully.
    But with Match-Merge operator, after setting Match bins, Match rules, Merge rules etc the mapping is validated successfully but errorring out while deployment.
    Pls advise on how to resolve this.
    I understand that the Match-Merge Operator gives Pl/Sql output from the documentation.
    thanks

  • Report writing with Department and Accounts in rows

    My client, BPC 10 MS, has a reporting need both Departments and Accounts being in the rows.  For example, in the photo below the first two rows are departments, the third is a group of accounts and the fourth is a department.  And then a subtotal is needed.
    I am thinking a heirarchy will help but this is accross dimensions.  Then I thought maybe copy the data to a different grouping of accounts to facilitate.
    Any ideas or suggestions.

    The report will not be static.  Here is what I did for one section of the report. And may have to do it for others as well.  Their are additional requirements that will make this a challenging one as well.
    I made two reports: One with projects in the row axis and one without.  I then used the formula in the function bar (as a local member) to summarize the data.
    What do you think?
    An additional requirement is that in one section I will need to have NET_SALES projects as ALL and the license revenue expanded.  Can this be done in one report?

  • Problem with Matching and Merging Step of MDM Workflow

    Hi,
    I have created a workflow which will first Match Step where the user will do both
    Matching and Merging. Then, it will go for a process step Final Review.
    Then, it will go for Branch step which is named as Decide on Check in.
    There are two workflow which are launched after this step.
    My workflow ran one time.
    The number of records is: 19585. The Match step which is assigned to a different user is not performing.
    It is a simple match based on First Name, Middle Name and Last Name.
    Any suggestion?
    Regards
    Kaushik Banerjee

    Hi Kaushik,
    What do you mean with "not Performing"? One suggestion, just log in with the 'Different User' who has been assigned for the matching task, and under that user goto the matching tab, in matching tab you will find a sub tab for Workflow, I hope you can work from there, If this doesnt solve your problem, then please let us know.
    Cheers,
    Cherry.
    Sorry problem with button;... so message came again... apologize.....

  • So I have a Itunes Australian account with match and want a USA account

    Hi All,
    I have an Aussie Itunes account and I have now moved to the USA. I want to change my country so I can download apps for work but it tells me I have to cancel my match account. It is not due to expire till Jan 2015. I dont want to wait that long and would like to find a way not to lose my apps and and music from home as I have banking apps and things on my phone. Anyone have any advise??

    How to Change Country with iTunes Match
    FYI, you will need to repurchase some apps from the US store. You will no longer be able to update apps on your iOS devices from the US store.
