iTunes Match process - how long?

Syncing my music to iTunes Match. I have about 11,000 songs, including some hundreds that will need to upload because they don't exist in iTunes.

How long should the Match process take? Hours? Days? Weeks? I'm at about a week so far.

Mac OS X (10.2.x)

Hi,

A lot depends on how good your internet connection is and the amount and size of the tracks that have to be uploaded.


i Would have expected the match process to be complete by now. Has the process stalled? Add icloud status column to song view. This will tell you what has been matched, uploaded, purchased, inelligible or duplicate. It will also tell you what tracks are waiting. Maybe one or more of such tracks are corrupt. Consider deleting them and allow match process to complete, then readd a small batch at a time.
