Inelgible for Icloud

Okay so I have spent the last week searching thru fixes to this issue and have not found any. I have a handful of songs and videos that will not upload to Icloud, I get the message "this item is inelgible for icloud". These have all been purchased thru Itunes under a different Itunes ID but yet over 750 other songs I downloaded under that same ID uploaded just fine. I stopped using that ID last year and now use a different one.

I have tried to create a AAC version but i get the message "protected files cannot be converted to other formats. I have tried to delete out of my library and in the folder on the hard drive create a mp3 version of the song but it will not upload.

Any suggestions ??

MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

This must really drive you crazy that you have been proven wrong that you have to continue to post about the issue to try and clear your ineptitude that you want to point out that I spelt a word wrong by missing a "i"

Everyone can see by the string that you have no knowledge of what you are talking about....

I don't care about your inability to spell, it is in fact useful as it indicates when you are fabricating quotes that you attribute to me. Liars are revolting.

There's a difference between apple's quote "in the cloud" and "in icloud". When you buy music from the itunes store, it comes from "the cloud", not "icloud".

Just because you got it wrong and know nothing about the product. funny

It was resolved in 5 minutes on the phone and was so easy, yet you don't know

The music is in the cloud.

Yet you want to keep replying to my discussion thread that you know noting about.

Yes I understand that. Problem is some if the people trying to help don't.

They believe that there is no such thing as cloud for music.

Problem is that you are still incapable of seeing that iCloud is not the cloud, and it is likely that you never will.

Some time in the future You will lose stuff because of this failing.

I keep getting these emails that this guy keeps posting but I dont see it. He must be smarter than Apple and everyone who has a hand in programming iTunes and iCloud. I have these people saying that music is not stored in iCloud but yet in iTunes, which was created by....Apple, under the tab "match" it states "Your iTunes library is now available in iCloud, 2746 songs are now available in iCloud"

So who is correct, Apple or the people responding to my discussion stating "your music isnt stored in iCloud" do they not know the product that they are commenting on ????

like this guy that keeps saying music doesnt get stored in iCloud. No not in your iCloud that stores your photos, documents, etc....but another cloud that Apple just so happens to also call "ICLOUD"

Did you notice that your post is no longer in the iCloud forum, it is now in the iTunes forum, where it belongs.

Apple provide more than one cloud, and one of them is CALLED iCloud.

The others are not.

Why?

Why not simply update the old AppleID and have and use only one account? Then there are no issues with having multiple accounts...

Hiya,

I see this is an old thread -- I just posted a similar question about the "iCloud ineligible" problem that I sometimes get for certain music -- usually from importing into iTunes from CDs, but also with music imported other ways, i.e., from music I get legitimately from a DJ friend (she'll issues podcasts, or put music files into my DropBox account. Sometimes these are "high quality" files - so those might not meet the sampling rate/other requirement (I have to re-check the requirements list for iTunes Match).

The result is that I have 15 or so music files that don't "match" to either my iPhone or iPad (and can't be played using AirPlay).

Apologies for for not posting to this thread - which I only found after doing my Post, perhaps because of the differently-worded subject line.

Thanks for any tips,

scott
