iTunes Match says "Matching your music with songs from iTunes store".

iTunes Match says "Matching your music with songs from iTunes store". This will not finish. I cannot put any new songs on iTunes Match. This started today. It was working fine. I have deleted my entire library and I can't even get one song to go through. Thoughts? I've been working with this all day. I have uninstalled iTunes, downgraded iTunes, upgraded iTunes again. Finally, I erased all data...Libraries...playlist data, etc.. I'm extremely frustrated now. I had synced about 4,000 songs since September and it had been working fine. Any help would be great.

I though I should let everyone know that after my iTunes Match got normal again, I went to my playlists that are synced to iTunes Match and noticed that several songs from each playlist were missing, not from the library, but just from the playlist. i don't think this is a big deal because there weren't that many that were missing, but if you had more missing than it could be a nightmare because you wouldn't know which are missing. Thought I would pass it along!

I´m still experiencing incredible slow iTunes Match performance on syncing content (playslists, new songs, covers, played-counter) to my iOS devices.. Even IF the matching progress for new songs is working within itunes, the synchronisation with iOS devices still *****..

All is not well in the UK with nothing that IMatch can't match uploading. Emailed Apple support, no response.

Sometimes it hangs on Stage 2 but 100% of the time hanging on Stage 3. This morning after many many frustrating hours, I have asked for a refund after being a customer for only two weeks. Not doing what it says on the box basically.

Been having the same problem (in UK) for over a week. At one stage I managed to get some new tracks matched after signing out and restarting my router, but since then nothing. I have a call booked tonight with Apple so will report back if there's a fix.

Booked a call for 19:45.

Phone rings at 19:48 : Message from Apple confirming call - Press 1 to speak to an advisor.

Message - Sorry Apple are closed. We close at 19:45. Please reschedule a call.

Put phone down

Two minutes later get same call.

Itunes match still not working.

Apple not working either.

Have the exact same problems. Got excited going through this post when people when saying it's fixed now, but no... I'm in the UK and any song that iTunes can't match it just leaves in waiting forever. Highly frustrating, especially as this service rarely works well for me anyway, but now it's plain useless.
