The new library folder contains all the various files and folders that make up a complete iTunes library, plus it has its own preferences.

I had iTunes make a new library in a new folder called iTunes Match, in my Music folder, right next to my normal iTunes library folder, which is called simply iTunes.Īt this point I was running iTunes and it had no music at all - because the iTunes Match library was totally new. If you launch iTunes while holding down the Option key, it asks what folder contains your iTunes library, along with an offer to make you a whole new iTunes library folder. Make a Separate Library - It’s a little-known but crucial fact that you can have more than one iTunes library - they just can’t both be active at the same time. Those are the copies I wanted to hand over to iTunes Match. The result is that all my Mozart tracks were copied to the Mozart folder. In iTunes, I opened the playlist containing all my Mozart, selected all the tracks, and dragged them from iTunes to the Mozart folder on the Desktop. So, in the Finder, on the Desktop, I created a folder called Mozart. I didn’t want to hand my normal music files to iTunes Match I wanted to hand it copies. What’s going to be important here are the music files. Here are the steps that I followed.Ĭopy the Music - Everything starts on my computer, with iTunes. So I started out with a simple goal: get the complete works of Mozart into the cloud, safely, as an experiment. Finally, I didn’t want to hand iTunes Match my real music, because I didn’t want it to come to any accidental harm. For another, there’s a 25,000-track limit, and my library goes way over that. I certainly wasn’t going to approach iTunes Match with my entire music library and say, “Here, iTunes Match, stick this in the cloud.” For one thing, I have 200 GB of music and a rather lame, slow-on-the-uptake DSL connection. At the very least, I wanted to try it.īut I wanted to try it gradually. That is something I did want to be able to do. In fact, there hardly has to be room for any of it on the iPhone it’s in the cloud. What I chiefly understood was this: The main benefit of iTunes Match is, exactly as Adam had said in his article, that it “enables you to store in the cloud and then play it from any of your computers or iOS devices.” So I could keep, say, 50 GB of music in the cloud, and listen to it on a 16 GB iPhone, even though there isn’t room for it all on the iPhone. And after a while I started to get the idea. In particular, I read a really splendid article over at Macworld. Then, after a while, I got over it and started doing my homework. Whatever iTunes Match is, it has something to do with my music, and I’ve spent years collecting and tagging that music I don’t want anything bad to happen to it. My main objection was that it looked to me as if a lot of stuff was going to happen automatically, and I found that scary. #1617: Pages regains mail merge, HomeKit sensor improvements, keyboard flags in MontereyĪfter the initial public unveiling of iTunes Match (see Adam Engst’s “ iTunes 10.5.1 Unveils iTunes Match,” 14 November 2011), I went through the six stages of denial: I was confused about what it was, I was certain it was something I’d never want to try, and so on.
