Hi there,

I just purchased an iTunes Match subscription yesterday after I let last years renewal lapse for a few months. Between my previous subscription finishing and the new one starting, I bought a couple of AppleTV's.

I'm having problems getting my full Match library to show on the AppleTV. It is only showing tracks purchased directly from iTunes, which unfortunately only makes up about 10% of my library.

My iPhone and iPad recognized my subscription immediately and display all music (imported/purchased) but I can't seem to get the AppleTV to play ball.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Reboot ATV. Make sure you are signed in to same Apple ID on ATV as match account. If all else fails, home sharing should show all music.

I had the exact same problem, and I reset my Apple ID in the settings (ie. logged out and logged back in) and then reset the Apple TV from the settings menu.

Then when I went back into music, it prompted me to turn on Itunes Match. Now it all works perfectly. All music from my Itunes is streaming directly from Apple servers.
