How to turn on iTunes Match when you have Apple Music enabled

<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/how-turn-itunes-match-when-you-have-apple-music-enabled' title="How to turn on iTunes Match when you have Apple Music enabled"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large_wm_blw/public/field/image/2015/07/apple-music-no-drm-not-taking-over-computer-hero.jpg?itok=jxH1vWyN' />[/url]</p> <p class="intro">Can't find iTunes Match amidst all the Apple Music hullabaloo? Here's how.</p> <p>Whether you're having trouble getting your iTunes Library to match tracks with the iTunes catalog, or you just bought Match and aren't sure how to turn it on when you have Apple Music activated, here's a quick fix to get you on the iTunes Match path.</p> <!--break--> <h2>What's iTunes Match, and how is it different from Apple Music?</h2> <p>iTunes Match is Apple's $24.99/year supplementary service; it lets you upload your music collection to iCloud Music Library and share it with all of your devices.</p> <p>Apple Music does essentially the same thing; unlike the company's streaming subscription service, however, Match will try to match your tracks with songs Apple has access to via the iTunes Store catalog, which is DRM-free. Apple Music matches songs with the Apple Music catalog, which has DRM.</p> <p>TL;DR: If you have Match, you can download 256kbps iTunes Store DRM-free versions of any tracks you own that also happen to be in the iTunes Store catalog—either to your original computer (by deleting and redownloading the track) or on auxiliary devices. If you have Apple Music, any copies of those matched tracks will be DRM-locked, because they come from the Apple Music streaming catalog.</p> <h2>How to sign up for iTunes Match in iTunes 12.2</h2> <p>If you haven't signed up for iTunes Match but want to, here's how you go about it.</p> <ol><li>On your Mac, open iTunes and navigate to the <strong>Account</strong> menu, then click <strong>Sign Out</strong>.</li> <li>Click on the <strong>Match tab</strong> that appears in iTunes, or go to <strong>Account &gt; iTunes Match</strong>.

</li> <li>After your subscription goes through, select <strong>Use iCloud Music Library</strong>.</li> <li>Click <strong>Add This Computer</strong> to upload and match your computer's music library to iCloud Music Library. (This step may happen automatically, so don't panic if you don't see it.)

</li> </ol><h2>How to turn on iTunes Match in iTunes 12.2</h2> <p>If you haven't yet turned on iTunes Match on your Mac, or you're having trouble getting iTunes to recognize that you have a Match subscription and an Apple Music subscription, here's how to reboot Match on your computer.</p> <p>These steps are almost identical to the Match signup process, but don't worry—you won't be signing up for another subscription.</p> <ol><li>On your Mac, open iTunes and navigate to the <strong>Account</strong> menu, then click <strong>Sign Out</strong>.</li> <li>Click on the <strong>Match tab</strong> that appears in iTunes, or go to <strong>Account &gt; iTunes Match</strong>.

</li> <li>Select <strong>Use iCloud Music Library</strong> to use it on this computer.</li> <li>iTunes will remind you that you've already subscribed to iTunes Match, and ask you whether you want to activate it on this computer. Click <strong>Add This Computer</strong> to connect your computer's music library to iTunes Match and iCloud Music Library.

</li> <li>To make sure your tracks are getting properly matched with the iTunes catalog over Apple Music, turn on iCloud Status.</li> </ol><h2>Still having problems with iTunes Match?</h2> <p>Because of Apple's Match implementation with Apple Music, there are still some bugs to iron out in iTunes. Some users are still getting Apple Music tracks when they should be getting Match tracks; if this is happening to you and the above steps aren't working, email Apple. The more complaints and examples of problematic setups the company gets, the easier it'll be for them to fix.</p> </div></div></div><br clear='all'/>
