MPMediaQuery to return local items only

Question

I want to display a UITableView with only the songs that are currently on the device.

If I query all items I (obviously) get all items, including the once that I purchas

Answer 1

Initialize MPMediaQuery like this in ViewDidLoad method.

MPMediaQuery * everything = [MPMediaQuery songsQuery];
self.songsList = [everything items];
[self.tableView reloadData];

and Cell for Index method

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {

    static NSString *cellIdentifier = @"TableCellID";
    TableCellTitle *tablecell = (TableCellTitle *)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
    MPMediaItem *anItem = (MPMediaItem *)[self.songsList objectAtIndex: indexPath.row];

    if([anItem valueForProperty:MPMediaItemPropertyTitle]) {
       tablecell.cellSongname.text = [anItem valueForProperty:MPMediaItemPropertyTitle];

    }

    return tablecell;

}

Answer 2

I solved it myself by adding the following line in the viewDidLoad method between MPMediaQuery... and NSArray...

[everything addFilterPredicate:[MPMediaPropertyPredicate predicateWithValue:[NSNumber numberWithBool:NO] forProperty:MPMediaItemPropertyIsCloudItem]];
