TS2830 is it possible to manually sync when using iTunes match? sync 13019 error always when trying to copy

I prefer to manage my transfers to my iPod myself. I keep getting the 13019 error; software is up-to-date. Google/Apple searches suggest only way to fix is to autosync the iPod - wiping off what is on it, including Podcasts.
It is beginning to seem as though, perhaps by using Match, I have eliminated the possibility of manual sych. Is this correct?

For some reason known only to Apple, only files downloaded through iTunes can be in the podcast section of iPod. As far as I know there is still no supported way around this.
Occassionaly someone reports getting around issue by manually editing the file using a hex editor. This involves comparing iTunes downloaded file with non-iTunes downloaded file to find the difference. Once found, the equivalent setting in other files can be changed. I have never done it though.

I just got a new macbook pro. How do I get the 900 songs that I took off of cds into iTunes on my computer from my iPhone. I had no problems syncing the music I had purchased from iTunes. I have tried to sync it using iTunes match, this did not work.

I have tried to sync it using iTunes match, this did not work. I would like to have access to my full library without going into the user profile of my old computer, which is on my new computers hard drive. I would like to eventually delete the old profile so that I have more space on my hard drive.

Deleting iTunes files on a Mac when using iTunes Match

When using iTunes Match, how do you go about deleting the music that resides on the Mac HD? With my music being stored on the iCloud, it sure would be good to free up some HD space.

Music is deleted exactly the same way as prior to using iTunes Match.

Is it possible to sort songs after using iTunes Match?

When I used iTunes to sync my songs previously, everything's fine because I can do all in iTunes then press sync.
But with the use of iTunes Match, everything seems automatically done through the "cloud".
I can't even rearrange the order of my songs, like sorted by artists or names of the songs.
It's pretty a mess when viewing my playlist, the songs are disordered.
Is it the fact that we can't sort songs?
Thanks.

I didn't say "re-create" I said "restore from a backup." Restoring from a backup will place all the files just as they were right back where they need to be. This includes the .itl, .itdb ad .xml files iTunes needs to recognize that the files on the internal HDD are the same as the files in the cloud.
You do have a backup, don't you? If you don't then I strongly recommend you start backing up immediately.
If all else fails you can email iTunes Store support and ask them to reset your iTunes Match DB on the server. This will require your iTunes to go through the entire scan, match and upload process as if it were the first time.

Empty playlists when using iTunes match

Most of my playlists are showing up empty when I use iTunes Match on my second Mac. The playlists all work fine on my devices (ipod and ipad), it's just on my work Mac that this is happening. All smart playlists work. Randomly, two of my other created playlists are working but all of the rest show up empty with zero items in them. I've tried reseting Itunes match. Nothing is working to fix the problem. Any suggestions? This is driving me crazy.

Hi,
Try holding shift key whilst turning off match. Close itunes and relaunch, turn on match and select add this computer.Does this help?

No artwork on iPhone when using iTunes match, some songs gone missing

Just started using iTunes Match, almost all of my artwork is missing, and randomly at that, it worked beore I started using iTunes Match, it also doesn't download when I play the songs. Some songs went missing "in the cloud" and are unable todownload although I can see them on my iPhone 4s and were uploaded from my PC without any errors. iTunes Match a waste of money? I paid for this because I thought all the artwork and songs were suppose to get uploaded to cloud then downloaded to selected devices :/

On the iPhone go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores and make sure "use cellular data" is set to ON.

I can't access my new playlist on my iPhone 4s when using iTunes Match

I recently spent 5 hours combing through my entire digital music collection to compile a playlist of all the songs I want to hear right now. It is 696 songs and 1.7 days long. Both my iTunes on my computer and my iPhone 4s have the latest version of the available software. I cannot see or listen to my new playlist on my iPhone. I have done the following (with no success):
1) I have updated iTunes Match.
2) I have powered off and powered on my iPhone
3) I have disable and re-enabled Match on my iPhone.
4) I have disable Match on my iPhone, connected my iPhone to my computer via a USB cord, transfered my playlist that way, then re-enabled Match on my iPhone. Still, I do not have access to my playlist. While this did have the desired the affect of putting the playlist on my iPhone, I then could not download the songs that were in the playlist onto my iPhone without Match or performing the laborous task of transfering each song individually via the USB cord. Not to mention the fact that I play for Match and expect it to work.
5) I have disabled Match on my iPhone, powered off and powered on my iPhone. Then, I re-enabled Match on my iPhone.
None of these actions have resulted in the desired occurance. I have read through the community and when I find someone who said they have fixed the problem, the person either has a minimal grasp of the English language and I do not understand that person or I have already completed the action that the person recommends.
I feel as though, since I pay for this service, that iTunes, i.e. Apple, should address my problem directly, rather than rely on the support of a community of people who are up the same creek, lacking a tool for forward momentum.
I somewhat feel as though I, and all others in a like-situation, should receive a refund for Match or, at the very least, some sort of compensation for time during which it has caused problems.
Additionally, I refuse to ever purchase an apple product again. They are not the company of quality that they used to be and we are all now just paying top dollar for an subpar product.

Additionally, when trouble shooting, and you disable iTunes Match on an iOS device you cannot simply re-enable it immediately. You must launch the Music app and let the content clear out before re-enabling the service.

Try TS1389: iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases.

This possible? == use iTunes to sync your contacts to Macbook contacts?

Hi guys,
As I am unable to sync my contacts from Mobileme to my contacts in my macbook (my earlier post), a possible solution I was thinking of is if I am able to use iTunes and sync the contacts from my iphone into my contacts on my Macbook.
Is this possible and if so, can you tell me the steps please.... a million thanks

No. The iPhone stores no data on a sim card, thus there is no way to do what you want using iTunes.

Latest i-pod touch wont sync, computer freezes and comes up with error -21 when i pull it out

Latest i-pod touch wont sync, computer freezes and comes up with error -21 when i pull it out of the usb port

Error 20, 21, 34, 37: These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. If you are using a PC, follow this article to resolve this issue.
Above from:

Next I would try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then try restoring the iPod. Note that this will erase the iPod. For recovery mode see:

MY TREO 650 INFO is erased on Palm when using ISYNC & Hot Sync Manager Help

MY TREO 650 INFO is erased on Palm when using ISYNC & Hot Sync Manager. The sync takes a very long time and eventually I get a message stating it has failed--any solutions?
Thank You

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
What is the specific message displayed as it fails, and what does your HotSync log say about the failed event? Also, who is your wireless carrier and did they provide this particular device to you?

IPod Error message when Sync'ing using itunes

Every time I use itunes to sync my music onto my 5th generation iPod it does about... 50 files then i get the error message:
'attempting to copy to the disk "DARROL'S iPOD" failed because the disk could not be read or written to'
A few times i've managed to get all the music onto it but mostly I get that error message. I've done a full restore on the iPod twice but it still happens.
I resorted to using the Winamp plugin to transfer the music and that seems to work a lot better but it doesn't seem to give album art, would like to use iTunes to do it, any help would be good.

I bought an ipd shuffle for my daughter. I have old songs from frostwire that I downloaded on the shuffle. When I try to play the songs, I get "Please use Itunes to sync music". What does that mean?

I bought an ipod shuffle and downloaded old limewire songs onto it. The ipod says "Please use itunes to sync music". What does that mean? Do I have to download from Itunes only? thanks, Jester

Dear jester,
Apple created iTunes to try and stop piracy, and if you look at the lime wire site, it says they were shut down for piracy.
You will have you buy all the music through iTunes or you can download music to iTunes from a CD.
I hope this help you.

Manually add songs with itunes match

Hi All,
I am wondering if it is possible to manually add songs to my new iPhone 5s via iTunes and the lightning cable.
I use iTunes match and love the service but it seems crazy that I would have to download 1200 songs plus across the internet to have them on my new handset.
Is there a work around that lets me manually put the songs on my iphone and then enable itunes match without loosing all those songs?
I am on a very slow and data limited internet connection and it will take me months to get all my music across.
Cheers for any help,
Elle

I think Apple has to comply with the reality; lately this company I adore is gettin on too much new things way before they work as it's supposed to.
Itunes match is great if I can download my songs on the go, it's a nightmare when I have to add new songs.
Why can't I manage them manually?
Why am I forced to spend money to upload them and again spend money to downolad them when I can use a cheap usb cable?
Apple stop you run and come back to do simple things that seamlessy works, that's what you're famous for; not the "200 new functions" a year that nobody is able to let work...

"Please use iTunes to sync music"... uh, I have music

Never had this issue before. I have a shuffle from 09' and today I decided to add a few songs... when plugged in iTunes recognizes the shuffle and shows my music on the device.
When I eject it and attempt to listen to music, the only thing I hear is "Please use iTunes to sync music"
Any one have any ideas?
FYI, I just upgraded to the newest version of iTunes.
Based off of my experience, I'd say iTunes is the issue
