Hi guys,

I hope someone can help with my problem, it seems many are experience the same or similar things as I am.

I purchased Match on Friday, ran the match in the morning and it matched around 6500 songs.

I have the remaining songs being uploaded.

Most of the songs say waiting.

However, a lot of these songs are in the iTunes Store. No data is incorrect in the file. I cannot understand why they are not being matched.

Obviously I haven't checked each individual song to see if it's in the iTunes Store, but many are.

Stage 3 hangs up trying to upload songs, whether it's on the 10th song or the first, or the 3rd. Always different.

I left it uploading initially for 4 days straight - while I was away. I came home to find it back on step 1.:confused: It had uploaded around 200 songs. But again, some are in the iTunes Store.

I decided to follow various guides how to fix this and so I put all the waiting songs into a playlist and converted them to AAC 256kbps (some already were). This made no difference and no more were matched, the upload froze once again.

I've tried restarting, quitting and re-opening. I'm currently trying to remove all the waiting songs (Match completes) and then re-adding but I hold out no hope.

I'm missing around 600 songs at the moment, many (or most) of which are 100% in the iTunes Store.

Someone please help, this is driving me insane.
