Apple Reopens iTunes Match Beta for U.S. Developers

I hate to be a wet blanket...

...but talking about iTunes Match in a public forum such as this violates your developer NDA.

Uhmmm... this was at the bottom of the iTunes Match developer e-mail, wise guy:

"Pre-release software, including information about pre-release software, is Apple Confidential Information and is subject to the terms of your iOS Developer Program License Agreement. Unauthorized distribution or disclosure of Apple Confidential Information is prohibited."
 
Of my 7,002 song iTunes Library, 6,521 songs were matched. I think that was pretty good. It is now uploading the rest to iCloud. I has been going for half the day and is only at 50 songs uploaded. This is going to take forever.

I am assuming we will get to use a working version eventually with that $25. I am glad it was an iTunes gift card and not my actual money though.

Still. I think you skipped over what I posted: https://forums.macrumors.com/posts/13331780/

Anyway, keeps getting stuck at step 2. Not liking what I'm seeing so far.
 
I'm at step 3 now. Apparently, only 166 of my 800 songs were matched. Time to upload everything else... :mad:
 
This is driving me insane.. I've been trying to get iTunes Match to work for the past few hours, but iTunes keeps crashing once it tries to move on to step 2. I've tried following the stuff above and even updating to the newest version of 10.7.2 to no avail.

anyone else getting stuck on step 3 when uploading songs???

I don't know if its because I'm running off a external drive or what, but it just gets to a certain number and won't go any more...

My iTunes Match stuff would stop for up to 15 minutes at a time before continuing...
 
This really is a discussion for the developer forums. Please take the conversation there you should find better help there. "it's a beta" if you all are expecting bug free (relatively) then you should save your money until the final release.

Than you,
Ryan


P.S.

Apple is also giving an additional three months to developers free for helping test it out.

You cannot legally make a contract with yourself. Thus Apple cannot violate any rules it creates itself.
Apple can behave inconsistently which in extreme cases could make some contracts (or rather some elements of the contracts) invalid. A bit like the CIA/FBI/military being able to determine what an ex-member can publish in its memoirs. As soon as the agencies themselves publish something, they might be on difficult legal grounds if they want their ex-employees to not publish something.
It gets even trickier if the information has been published by third-parties, eg, newspapers. How can you stop somebody citing a newspaper even if the same information was known to the ex-employee initially only because of his work.
 
Got it all done, but when I try to play a song on my iPhone, all of my non-iTunes bought music is greyed out. Music I bought through the iTunes Music store I can click on, but it doesn't play.
 
anyone else keep getting prompted for a shared library "iCloud Library" password? I've tried entering my apple ID password and user password to no avail. Nothing set in Prefs > Sharing. Any ideas?
 
Cancellation?

Does anyone know how I can cancel the iTunes Match? look all over but couldn't find one. Also, would I be able to get some refund for the 25 bucks? I just need to migrate to another account.
