Q: Why do all my devices have different music

I have one apple ID and one I cloud account per the apple support pages

 

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3387967?start=0&tstart=0

 

I also have match because that is the only way I can get my songs loaded from my cd's on the cloud.

 

 

 

My two computer which are up to date with Snow lepoard match each other

My ipad and Iphone both have songs that are not on my computers.

I only download songs from my ipad and main computer.

 

I consider myself a self proclaim computer geek and am a recording engineer.

I can't believe this is such a problem.

 

Somebody must know the solution to keeping the content from the same account the same

 

Thanks

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8), 2.44 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB ram

A:

Do you see iTunes Match tracks in you Mac libraries.

 

Maybe you need to change your View Options on your Mac.

    How many tracks are missing, is it only songs that were purchased on your iPad?

     

    Make sure Music checked in Automatic downloads on your Macs. That way the music you purchase on your iPad appears on your computers without you having to do anything.

    Thanks for the help

    I did have that checked

    On my mac Book Pro 249 songs +1.96 gig

    On My iPhone  452  3.59 gig

    My iPad matches my phone

     

     

     

    Another thing is on my phone there a few songs that show they are there but never finished downloading

    Like only one song in an entire album.

     

    With mobile me I had the choice of syncing with the Mobile Me wireless or physically syning to the computer in iTunes

    With iCloud that is not an option with the phone, My ipad though never had to download the songs as they are actually there.  How do I know because if I am not in a wireless area or 3g zone my phone can't play any songs but my Ipad or iPods can, Is that normal or is something up with my phone.
