Why does iTunes Match not sync to my iphone 5?

I have tried about every suggested solution i found on the interwebs (including this community) concerning this problem but iMatch still just doesn't want to sync on my new iPhone 5. I am getting desperate..
The only thing I see is a frozen cloud-screen when i start the music-app..

I had this problem too, and solved it yesterday.
This anomaly is related with the 1st time iPhone activation by iCloud. without using iTunes.
If you erase your phone and restore your iPhone using iCloud backup, it won't work. But, if you erase your phone (backing up all informations on your computer) and restore using the iTunes software, it will work.
I did it yesterday and solved the problem.
What I did:
1) connected the phone on my computer and did a complete backup on my computer;
2) erase the phone (you can do it on iTunes or on the phone);
3) before put my account information on the phone, plugged it on the computer again;
4) follow the instructions on iTunes (restore the backup)
Sorry my poor English, i'm Brazilian. I hope it help!

Why does my IPad not sync with my IPhone for Ibooks bookmarks?

Why does my IPad not sync with my IPhone for IBooks bookmarks? Both Pad and Phone have sync turned on.

I must apologize as I misread your post. I though that you were talking about Safari bookmarks but you post does clearly state iBooks bookmarks.
You may want to just try restarting both devices and see if that helps. One other thing that you could try is quit iBooks on both devices and then launch it again and see if the bookmarks are synced when you relaunch.

Why can't I play purchased movies on my Apple TV? And why does iTunes match not work on my Apple TV?

I have an Apple TV (early 2012) and bought some movies in the iTunes store. Now, Apple TV doesn't let me watch my purchased content. I very well can listen to music I have bought in the iTunes store and watch the purchased movies on my iphone 6 (running the latest iOS 8) and on my MacBook Air (running the latest version of Yosemite). I can also rent movies on Apple TV and watch them - no problem at all.
The other problem I have is that I activated iTunes Match on my Apple TV. But it doesn't work either. On my Mac and on my iphone - there's no problem. On Apple TV instead there is always appearing the message, that it will take a couple of minutes to setup iTunes Match on Apple TV. Well... that is too nice to be true! It takes hours and even after that it doesn't work at all.
I checked the forums and tried different things:
1. Updating my Apple TV's software to the latest release
2. Restoring all settings of my Apple TV and taking it offline (meaning: logging out of iTunes on Apple TV and taking it off power)
3. Restarting my modem and router after half a minute break and taking it off power.
4. Setting up Apple TV again and reconnecting it with iTunes and my WLAN-router.
5. I also wanted to Airplay the screen of my MAC or iphone to Apple TV -> doesn't work (even though I can watch the movies on this two devices without any problems). Other content can be airplayed to Apple TV without any problems as well.
-> Nothing seems to work!
When I tried to play the moves the following to messages appear:
1. iTunes is currently unavailable. Try again later. (But Apple TV recognizes how much of the movie has been watched already. It indicates that it is connecting and authorizing... and after that the message above appears). OR
2. Apple TV says that the movie will be ready to be watched in two hours from now... or that you have to chose a lower resolution, if you want to watch it any sooner.
Does anyone face the same difficulties? And of course: Does anyone know any cure and salvation for my Apple TV? ;-)
Thanks so much for your assistance!

There's an issue currently that a lot of us are experiencing in that we all get the error message "iTunes is currently unavailable; please try later"
It's an issue with Apple and we're awaiting an update re this
I've posted a topic in regards to this after having a long conversation with Apple support this morning and will be receiving a call from their tech team tomorrow to run through it further
As it stands iTunes cannot be accessed via ATV's and nor can it be streamed via AirPlay from iTunes to the ATV
However I can access all films/iCloud content via my Mac Mini with no issues!

HT4914 Why does iTunes Match not really match some songs in my library? Any thoughts?

I have noticed that many songs in my library are really not upgraded to 256, even though they say Matched. I thought Matched was supposed to also mean "We found your song and upgraded it to 256." Am I wrong? Thanks.

Why does GPS data not sync to my iPhone from iPhoto?

Hi guys,
I synced all my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto and deleted them off my iPhone. I then created albums on iPhoto and synced them back to my iPhone. For some reason the GPS data wasn't carried over - even though I can confirm it is there as I can see it in iPhoto.. Any ideas?

Hey there 2Chainz,
It sounds like youre being prompted that there is not enough space. I would use the following article to help resolve the issue named:
iOS: "Not enough free space" alert when trying to sync
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1503
Try disconnecting and reconnecting your device, then syncing again to solve this issue.
Orphaned files may remain on your iOS device if it is physically disconnected while syncing music, podcasts, videos, or photos. This can prevent iTunes from syncing the iOS device on subsequent sync sessions. When this happens, the Capacity indicator in iTunes may report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the iOS device. To resolve this issue:
Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 5.
Turn off the automatic syncing functions for the iOS device. To do this:
Select the iOS device from the iTunes window and click the Summary tab.
Deselect "Automatically sync when this device is connected" and select the "Sync only checked songs and videos" checkbox.
Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
Reduce the amount of data that is being synced to the device and resync the device. For example, if syncing your Music library exceeds the memory capacity of the device, choose "Selected playlists" to transfer rather than "All songs and playlists" under the Music tab in iTunes.
If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 6.
Restore using iTunes.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Why does iTunes Match cause iTunes to crash ?

Why does iTunes Match cause iTunes to crash ?

My problem is similar. It began right after I allowed an Adobe update to run. (Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.45.2 is recorded in my Registry.) Now every single website I try to open triggers a window (see below) and repeats many times.
It makes no difference whether I "Allow" or not. I think it runs this window for every flash object on that website. It is occurring while I enter this post!
It makes using the Internet MOST challenging. Surely this is causing major problems for everyone.
I have IE8 on Windows Vista.
Here's the text from the message:
"A website wants to open web content using this program on your computer.
This program will open outside of Protected Mode. Internet Explorer's Protected Mode helps protect your computer. If you do not trust this website, do not open this program.
Name: Adobe Flash Player
Publisher: Adobe Systems Incorporated
(Checkbox) Do not show me the warning for this program again.
buttons: Allow Do Not Allow"
Should I appeal to Microsoft or Adobe for a solution? Is is possible to install the previous version?
Thanks for any wisdom.

Why does itunes store not pop up and not tell me why?

Why does itunes store not pop up and then not tell me why? i"m wondering if it could have anything 2do with me just transefering music with my flash drive?

Does it show in the Purchased section for downloading ? Click on the Purchased under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.
If not then have you tried logging out and back into the account ? If that doesn't work either then try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

Message "iTunes could not sync contacts to iPhone because an error occurred while committing data"

Hello all. I recently replaced the HD in my MacBook Pro. Just after, I retrieved my old files from the Time Machine backup, which I made just before the replacement. During the first sync of my iPhone via iTunes and while I was trying to sync my contacts I saw the message "iTunes could not sync contacts to iPhone because an error occurred while committing data". After that, I lost my iPhone contacts (I have them only from iCloud). The only problem is contacts, all the others (Calendars, Apps) are normally syncing. Does anybody has a solution? Thanks in advance!

hello,
There was a similiar posting that I have seen from others and they found out that the back up was bad. https://discussions.apple.com/message/6139533#6139533
I would use a previous backup (earlier one) to the one you have tried to just do.

HT204406 iTunes match not loading on my iPhone 4

i am having a problem with the iTunes match not loading on my iPhone 4, once in iTunes it just shows the iCloud logo, and does not load all my albums/song etc.

I'm guessing you mean the iTunes store.
What specificaly happens when you try to access the store? Any errors?
What do you mean by full factory reset? Does that mean a restore as new?
Are you able to access the store via Wi-Fi?

ITunes could not sync calendars to iPhone because the iPhone disconnected

error message
iTunes could not sync calendars to iPhone because the iPhone disconnected
I have spoken to Apple a couple of times in the last week (approx 2hr) apple support said it could be a Microsoft issue I have spoken to Microsoft and read endless information from the net and it seems that Microsoft is not the issue.
I have uninstalled itunes and reinstalled, reset all settings in Settings\General on the phone, reset sync history on the iPhone, upgraded microsoft office 2003 to 2007 and I am still getting the error message.
I have a iPhone 3G, pc is running windows 7 and just upgraded to microsoft office Home and Student 2007 and Office Outlook 2007.
iTunes version 11.0.2.26
iPhone iOS 6.1.3
I have the same error on my wife's iPhone as well.
Any help would be great.

Thanks midwestcraft. I had this problem and your answer solved it for me.
Thought this further info may be of use to some who wants more historic dates in their calendar.
I had "do not sync events older than" unchecked and the input field set to "0". When I changed it to 180, it worked perfectly. I've found that I can increase this number to "545" - anything higher causes the error. This seems to coincide with some strange multiple-entry events in my calendar.
Don't know if this will be a clue for somebody to fix the issue.
