Q: Only half of my songs are available. How do I upload the rest of my songs on itunes match?

I searched for the answer to this question and the response was to navigate to iTunes Store>Upload to itunes match, but that selection is no longer in itunes.

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

    Greetings Nels,

     

    If you are having an issue with some of your music not showing up in iTunes Match, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - Resolve issues with iTunes Match.

     

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

     

    Be well.

    I looked at the article. It wasn't helpful. My computer is authorized. The article says, "After you authorize, choose File > Library > Update iCloud Music Library from the menu bar at the top of your computer screen." The problem is that still the music burned or downloaded to my computer doesn't show up in iCloud and cannot be seen as my music in my iPhone. In many cases, a few songs from an album that I downloaded or burned are in iCloud, but not the remaining tracks. I can play these if I open the mp3 on my MacBook Pro, but not from my iCloud account in iTunes. So even when I'm playing music that I paid for, Apple now has it that I have to repurchase from them before I can play it.

    Hi,

    Do you have more than one computer or just the Macbook pro? If you only have one computer, open itunes and sign into your account. Go to preferences and make sure that iCloud library is checked. Next go into song view and add iCloud status column. This should tell you what has been Matched, uploaded, purchased, duplicate, ineligible or waiting. If you have got tracks showin waiting, you need to sselect update iCloud music library.
