if you use iTunes match in order to create space and remove music from your hard drive, does that happen automatically when you subscribe and upload your music or is there another step to remove the music from your hard drive once you've uploaded to iTunes match?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
iTunes match won't automatically remove content from your computer, if you want to do that you will need to do it manually yourself.

You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
Have you emptied your Mac's Trash icon in the Dock?
If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
Look through your other Mailboxes and other Mail categories to see If there is other mail you can archive and/or delete.
Other things you can do to gain space.
Once you have around 15 GBs regained, do a search, download and install OmniDisk Sweeper.
This app will help you locate files that you can move/archive and/or delete from your system.
STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
Good Luck!

How are you trying to do it from your computer? Try plugging it into your charger while connected to wifi, then either lock the screen and wait (it should backup up ever 24 hours) or go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and tap Back Up Now.

What is the best way to print from an iPad?

I have the Printer Pro app, and it seems to do a good job locating my wireless printer, but it gets complicated to print webpages or pages documents. What is the best way to print from an iPad 2?

If you have a compatible printer, use AirPrint http://www.apple.com/ipad/features/airprint.html and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
If not, you would need to purchase software, such as:

That all depends on which eBook app you're using. If you archive a book using the Kindle app, it is removed from your iPad. It's still available in your Kindle account should you ever wish to access it again but it's not taking up space on your device.

What are the ramifications of removing items from Usage Settings?

When attempting to download and install the latest upgrade to my iPad, I received a message that I needed at least 3.8 GB to install the upgrade. Then it recommended removing items in the Usage Settings.
I'm primarily concerned the process could disrupt my large music library.
If I backup my iPad, remove the music from the iPad Usage Settings, and install the upgrade, can I then restore the music?

" ... restore the music" -- to your iPad?
The upgrade requires more space than the older software you have. You should plan to keep less data on your iPad than you had before the upgrade.

How to remove music from my iPad that synced from iTunes

Hi. When I originally synced my iTunes and iPad, all the music came over with the apps. The music is now taking up too much space. I have updated my sync settings within iTunes to indicate that it should only sync the apps (not the music). However, all of the music is already on my iPad. Is there anyway that I can remove the music from my iPad without losing all my songs from iTunes (that is my fear)?
Thanks!

I had this same problem. On the "Summary" page of your device in iTunes, select "Manually manage music and videos" under Options. Then go to "On this iPad" (or iPhone), command+A to select all, and delete. Apple will ask if you're sure you want to delete all music. If you choose yes, you will see the blue music section of your content bar at the bottom disappear.
Hope this helps.

How do you remove songs from your iPad and iPhone?

My iPad's plugged into my Mac, and I want to remove some songs but can't find a delete button on either my iTunes or iPad.
What's the secret?

Very helpful. Be aware that the confusion here was what to click in iTunes once your device was plugged in the USB of your computer. If you open the device pulldown in the left column you'll see Music, Movies, etc. I was selecting Music, which seemed logical, but was not able to uncheck the songs I wanted off my iPad. But if you click/select the listed device, and then click Music in the tabs at the top of your iTunes page, you'll see all your music in your Music library from which you can check to port to your device, or if already on your device, uncheck if you want them off it.
NOTE: be sure after you click Music to click Sync Music, but then BE SURE to click the radio button for "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres." Doing so then displays all your songs in our iTunes Music Library with checkboxes by each one.

HT1351 how do you get your itunes music from your ipad to iphone

I am trying to get my itunes music from my ipad to my iphone. how can I do this?

If you are in a country where you can re-download iTunes purchases or you've signed up to iTunes Match then you can re-download them, otherwise you will need to sync your music via your computer's iTunes - you can't connect an iPad to an iPhone for direct transfer of music.

Does Apple have the right to remove music from my HDD?

Not only are tunes I purchased missing from my library (the name, the duration, the artist, etc. are still listed) but also from my hard drive. I'd downloaded a free album and it appeared in my library for a while and then, after an recent update to iTunes, it and many other tunes are missing from my library and hard drive.

I'm not sure that's the right question. For instance, when you sync an iPod, iTunes will be adding and removing files from the iPod's hard drive as a normal part of the operation. I'm fairly certain however, that the Software License Agreement that you acknowlegded when you installed iTunes will absolve Apple of liability for any loss of data that may occur directly or indirectly through the use of their software. It is your responsibiliity to back up any and all data that matters to you.
When you say the files are missing, do you mean that there are entries in the library that come up with the exclamation symbol or that the entries themselves have been removed? Have you actually tried searching your hard drive in case these files not been migrated properly and are simply not where iTunes now expects them to be?
*Adding new items/removing orphans*
Try iTunes Folder Watch or iTunes Library Updater. Folder Watch is much faster on the adding files front, can be set to run in the background and includes a useful exclusion feature, however it’s really slow at removing orphans. iTLU is better for this although doing it manually after looking at a list of proposed removals generated by Folder Watch is probably faster still. iTLU can also be set to update iTunes when you've used 3rd party tools to change tag info.
These tools can either be used directly or to guide you in the process of moving data to where iTunes expects to find it.
