Good Afternoon Elliotsmum,

I understand you are not seeing songs that you imported from CDs into your iTunes library since you subscribed to iTunes Match, is that right?

Take a look at the attached resource that explains how to troubleshoot iTunes Match.

You can also use the Spotlight application on your computer to find your song. Type the name of the song in the search field when you open Spotlight.

Finally, if you have a Time Machine backup of your computer, you can go back in time before you started using iTunes Match to see if the song you are missing was actually in your library.

If for some reason you still cannot find a song that should be in your iTunes Library, you would have to re-import the music from the CD. Here's how:

I hope this information helps ...
