TS4124 Itunes Match and my play lists

When useing itunes Match, will it save my play lists or just single songs and their album information?

Turn off iTunes Match.
As you've found, with iTM enabled on an iDevice, direct syncing of music (and supported music videos) via USB or Wi Fi is disabled and all music managment (including music videos) takes place directly on the iDevice. You can disable iTunes Match, sync the music videos you want via USB, and re-enable the service.

  • HT4914 Itunes match not updating play list?

    I've been using itunes match for about a month and noticed something annoying.
    When I add a song to a certain play list that play list dissappears from itunes match on my phone.
    I restarted my phone...re-synced imatch thru itunes and nothing..
    Anybody else have this problem or know how to fix?
    Thanks

    Dear Jim
    thank you so much. Thank you for your quick reply, sorry I did not respond sooner, but  I wanted to make sure it worked before replying, hence I had to wait for iTunes Match to do its thing.
    You are are a genius Jim, so a big thank you.
    So in a nutshell for all, Jim's solution works for those who have gone over their 25,000 limit by mistake, and are unable to update match, you can with Jim's solution, delete stuff in the iTunes Match cloud and in effect have your original iTunes Match library as you want it.
    Thank you Jim

  • I just downloaded itunes match and started playing one song (country) and in the middle of the song it started paying another song.

    I just purchased itunes match, started playing a song and in the middle of the song it started playing another song (not on my playlist) still showing the image of the original song. 

    Hi CWaggoner,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you're experiencing unexpected behavior when playing songs, I'd try the first four steps of this iPhone assistant:

  • HT1296 I have set up a play list on iPad and I have iTunes Match and icloud. I have set up syncing between iPad and windows computer i want to sync the playlist from my computer to my ipod but the playlist isn't syncing across to the computer.

    I have set up a playlist on my iPad I have iTunes Match and icloud. I want to sync my playlist onto my iPod from my laptop, but whilst all my music is available on the laptop, the playlist I set up isn't syncing what am I missing

  • I subscibed to ITunes Match and all my music has disappeared from my Ipod touch and will only play through WiFi so I cannot play music in my car. How do I get it back please

    You'll need to switch off iTunes Match on the device & sync the iPod with iTunes as hopefully you've kept all your music on your PC.

  • HT5848 I have purchased Itunes Match, and go to Settings/Music and it tells me to subcribe to Itunes Match.  I click on that and it says I am subscribed, but I can not get it to quit playing ADs.

    Figured it out.   Must sign out from Itunes and then back in and it works.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You cannot use iCloud.com on a mobile device, only on a computer. Documents in iCloud are available via the apps themselves on a mobile device.

  • HT204406 My HDD crashed which held all of my music.  Can I recover the music from iTunes Match and download it back to a new HDD?

    My HDD crashed and it contained all of the music from which iTunes and iMatch pulled files from.  Is there a way to recover the music from iTunes Match and download it back to my new HDD?

    My computer HDD did not crash only my external drive with the music files.  I have not had to reinstall iTunes software.  The iTunes libarary is still complete and shows the complete list of music.  I have also ran Update iTunes Match and all of the music is on the cloud.
    I cannot play the music from iTunes that is on the cloud, however the music I purchased from iTunes did download and it will plan from my computer.
    The matched or uploaded music is what will not download and I can't find a command that allows me to download from Match.
    Sorry if I'm not being very clear, however I do really appreciate your help and suggestions.

  • Why do songs appear in itunes match but not play?

    Ive got loads of duplicate song titles appearing in Song list in Music on iPad, but only one plays of the duplicates 'works'. The other is phantom, and causes continuous play to stall. Solutions please.
    BTW I've tuned Match off on my devices as it is more hassle than it is worth.

    Do you mean that the songs are being skipped by your devices when iTunes Match is on? Cause I believe I am having the same issue. Turning off iTunes Match and reloading all the music back on your devices from scratch fixes that, until you turn back on iTunes Match and the problem results again.
    Doesn't appear to be a permanent fix. I've been looking.

  • ITunes Match and playlists broken in iOS 8

    Since updating to iOS 8 I can no longer add songs to playlists from my phone (I have iTunes match).  When attempting to add a song sometimes it gets stuck in the add screen and does not show a "done" button to press or if I add one, it just doesn't add it to the playlist.  I can however add songs to the playlist from my mac and it will show up on my phone like normal, just unable to add from my phone.
    Other iTunes or music app issues are songs not showing up where they should.  I had a song that downloaded from a pre-order, I changed the genre to one of the main genre's I use (like normal), added it to a playlist, and now that the entire album has become available and has downloaded the first track is not able to be found through either genre (either original or my own altered genre) or artist although it still shows up on the playlist.
    One more thing about adding songs to a playlist on iOS.  I was glad to see that one of the buttons on the bottom (in the add screen) is playlists now as an option to add a song but if you edit the buttons on the bottom and move genre down there, it doesn't stay put.  It's back on the "more" screen each time.
    Here's a suggestion to any apple folks if they're reading this, besides fixing the things above, how about from the song playing screen when you press the + button that an option is to "add to playlist".  When you click on that it brings you to your playlist view to select a playlist.  It's a pain in the butt when say you're listening to a song on shuffle, want to add said song to a playlist so you have to back out of the song playing screen, find the playlist (for which I have multiple layers due to playlist folders) click the add button, find the song (after you move genre to the bottom again) then click on the plus sign, hit done, make sure it took it, back out of the playlist view to get back to Now Playing.  For people like me who take advantage of iTunes Match and have a lot of music in their libaray, Genre and playlists are the easiest and quickest ways to find what I want to listen to and at times it's not very efficient.
    Thanks for your considerations and eventual fixes.

    iTunes Match has this problem with almost every iPhone software update. It's unfortunate that they cannot track down the issue. Hopefully this is not indicative of Apple's expertise when it comes to all cloud services. Music, photos and personal data are things that are important to all of us and we spend many hours on custom playlists, personal photo albums and are putting our trust that the work won't just disappear. iCloud drive is another promised feature and it's becoming tougher to trust a new free service when long-standing issues on a paid service cannot be fixed. I want to remain optimistic but so far, iTunes Match is not helping.
    On a positive note, the playlists on my Apple TV matches perfectly with my iMac and was working well on my iPhone 5S. The update to iOS 8 on the 5S did NOT cause the playlists to go out of order. I have only seen this issue on new iPhone 6's and iOS 8. Also, moving playlists in and out of folders in iTunes on a Mac seems to be a temporary fix that only lasts as long as you are logged in – Signing out of iTunes Match on iOS and signing back in brings back the problem… which *****.

  • ITunes Match and iCloud accounts are different.

    I bought my mom this iPad Air 2 for Christmas and I'm trying to get it so that she can have access to my iTunes Match account. I made the account on my AppleID so I can control the library for them. When I first set up her iPad, all her pictures and stuff were there. Then I changed the settings so that she could access the iTunes Match account, it still is using her AppleID for her iCloud but now it's my AppleID in the iTunes for the iTunes Match access and her pictures are no showing up anymore.
    I'm SURE there has to be a way for iTunes Match to use my ID for that and still load all her pictures from her AppleID from her phone... right?
    I should clarify, on my AppleID I don't have any apps, nor do I have an Apple product, I only signed up for an AppleID so that I could use it to get iTunes Match and control the playlists for them and everything. So she's logged in to her AppleID for iCloud and logged into my AppleID for the iTunes Match account. The pictures are all gone now though.

    It stays on your phone until you delete it.  If you download a song, album or artist, you can delete them by swiping across the title and tapping delete.  If you play a song without downloading it, it is stored in cache memory on your phone.  As you phone starts to reach full capacity, older and less frequently played songs begin to automatically be deleted from cache.  Or, to remove them all, occasionally go to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipe across All Music and tap Delete.

  • ITunes match and iTunes radio skips songs on wifi

    iTunes match and iTunes radio have been skipping songs while on wifi. We have a Linksys EA6350 setup in WPA2 personal for both the 2.5 ghz and 5 ghz networks. Both are setup as mixed 802.11n/ac with both on a channel width of AUTO. We are using two Apple TV's, iPhone 5s and a iPad 2. One of the apple TV's is setup as a different iTunes account than the others. It skips songs on all devices and accounts, however when I turn the wifi off on my iPhone both iTunes match and iTunes radio work flawlessly. What should I do?

    +1 same issue here.
    Not sure exactly when it started, but seems like it was sometime on or after 3/7.
    It appears to affect every device I have on the home network (iMac, MacBook Pro, Macbook Air, iPhone, iPad).  Most devices are wifi, but I can confirm the issue also occurs on my iMac which is connected via ethernet.  I'm able to get both iTunes match streaming and iTunes Radio streaming to the iPhone and iPad if I disable wifi and use LTE.
    On my iOS devices, it just looks like it's skipping songs repeatedly...every now and then it might play one song, but it skips 30-50 before that happens.  A few times it just kept skipping until the device rebooted itself.  On my OS X devices, I don't get any of the skipping, it just looks like it's trying to load the radio station (i get the blue progress bar at 100% but nothing ever happens).
    For what it's worth, I'm using an Apple Time Capsule for as my DHCP for ethernet and wifi.  My internet provider is Cox Communications.

  • I have paid for itunes match and have now lost all my music of my iphone except what I paid for from itunes, 964 songs gone not at all happy.  Can anyone help

    I have paid for itunes match and have now lost all my music off my iphone except what I paid for from itunes, 964 songs gone into the cloud. Can anyone help please?

    Enabling iTunes Match does not delete music from your computer. Why do you think it is now not in the iTunes library if it was before? If all of your music was in the iTunes library then it is also now in the cloud if iTunes has completed it's scan and all the music meets the match requirements. Enable the iCloud Status column in the iTunes browser by switching to Song view and pulling down View > View Options. Select iCloud Status then close the small window. Sort on the new column. Your music should be listed as "purchased," "matched" and "uploaded." Some tracks may be "ineligible." Post back and let us know.

  • ITunes Match and Genius options all greyed (grayed) out under 'Store' menu

    I'm using iTunes 10.5.2.11 and have signed up for iTunes Match. - for the last couple of weeks it's been 'working' in so much as it has already scanned my Library and matched/uploaded just under 5000 tunes. I can see these on iPhone/iPad/Apple TV.  I can't say more than that as generally I don't think Match 'works' very well at all, but that's another story!
    However....for the last 2 days I can no longer get iTunes to match any recently added content. I've added around 20 CDs and it starts the scan process, but just sits there with the progress bar at around 95% complete with the message "Matching your music with songs in the iTunes store..." The iCloud status of all songs in the library is 'waiting'. They're pretty mainstream titles, so I can't see a problem matching them.
    When I look at the main iTunes manu under the 'Store' dropdown, the items Turn off iTunes Match, Update iTunes Match, and Update Genius are all greyed out and there's nothing I can do.
    I'm signed in with my normal account, have tried logging out/in and restarting my computer and iTunes but nothing seems to change.
    Any ideas???

    I'm using iTunes 10.5.2.11 and have signed up for iTunes Match.  I am having the same issue.  After letting it go all night I am stuck on the "matching your music with songs in the iTunes store" step with 1086 of 1110 songs checked.
    Also, this is my situation exactly: "I should have added, the 'problem albums' and some of the artwork (hit and miss as usual) are visible on all my portable devices with all the track listings, but are all greyed out and have no 'cloud' icon next to them. Obviously they won't play"
    Dont see why it should matter, but unlike others here, I do have a lot of non-generic music, album riips, etc.  And I have a lot of my own vinyl artwork scanned myself.
    What to do ...?

  • Where is iTunes Match content stored on apple TV? I recently joined itunes match and it is working on my ios devices, but I can't find my music on Apple TV

    Where is iTunes Match content stored on apple TV? I recently joined itunes match and it is working on my ios devices, but I can't find my uploaded music on Apple TV

    It isn't actually stored anywhere, it needs to be downloaded from the internet before any content can be played.
    iTunes Match content is accessed through the 'Music' icon on the main screen though, it needs turning on though in settings first.

  • With the new update iTunes lost my important play lists. Anyone else?

    With the new update iTunes lost my important play lists. Anyone else?

    If you have a backup on iCloud or iTunes you would not have lost all your data, the update went fine on my phone and my wifes and many others. On forums you dont see the millions of users saying it went well, just the few with issues. If you had no backup thats not Apples fault, thats yours. The same will happen whatever platform you go to if you dont back your data up.
