Ask the iTunes Guy: Fixing iTunes Match's quirks<article>
<section class="page">
<p>I don’t know how many people use iTunes Match, but I get a fair number of questions about this subscription service. This week, I answer three questions about iTunes Match. I also explain how to add detailed artist information to tags in iTunes, and discuss that Purchased playlist that shows up every time you buy something from the iTunes Store.</p><h2>Can’t match, won’t match</h2>
<p><strong>Q: My music library is a combination of purchased music and CD rips. I recently subscribed to iTunes Match. After the matching process was complete I noticed that quite a few of the songs I had ripped showed their iCloud status as “Uploaded” instead of “Matched.” In many cases, I had songs within the same album that were matched while others were uploaded. One example is the Beatles’
White Album: of the 30 songs, six were uploaded while the remaining songs were matched. Do you know of any workaround where I can achieve match status without re-ripping or purchasing albums on iTunes?</strong></p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2925577/ask-the-itunes-guy-fixing-itunes-matchs-quirks.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
