Can I use icloud to transfer music purchased on my iphone to my PC with icloud?

I'm just wondering if I can use icloud to transfer purchases (music) made from itunes on my iphone to my PC? I know that if I turn on icloud with my other Apple devices it will sync to them & I believe I have icloud on my PC. But I'm not even sure if it works like that...to automatically put them on my PC when I buy music on my iphone. So I'm just wondering if it's possible & if it is- how do I do it? I DO have icloud on my iphone & it is updated.

Step 1. Open iTunes on the computer.
Step 2. Click Store and choose Authorize This Computer… from its drop-down menu.
Step 3. Enter the Apple ID and password that you have used to purchase the music.
Step 4. Connect your iPad air to the computer.
Step 5. Go to DEVICES and right click your iPad air. In the drop-down menu, click Transfer Purchases.
Step 6. Wait until the transfer is complete.

How to Transfer Music from iPhone to Computer
If you purchased music with multiple Apple IDs, you have to authorize the computer for all of them. However, you're allowed to authorize up to 5 computers with one Apple ID. That means you have to look for other methods when you have already authorized 5 computers.

How to transfer music purchased from old iphone to new iphone

Music from sources other than the iTunes store should already be on your computer in the iTunes library. They had to come from there to begin with to get on your phone in the first place.
Media is not part of the backup. Re-sync the media from your computer to your new phone.

I have 2 iCloud accounts. Can I delete one account so I can make use of additional space I purchased for the secondary account? Also iPhoto seems to only connect to the primary account? How do I send files to the secondary account?

I have 2 iCloud accounts. Can I delete one account so I can make use of additional space I purchased for the secondary account? Also iPhoto seems to only connect to the primary account? How do I send files to the secondary account?

Both accounts are completely independent from each other. In order to use the space that you have purchased for your secondary account, you must change it to become your primary account. Yes, as you said, services like photo stream only work with the primary account. Unfortunately, there is no comfortable way to just transfer data from one account to another one, but you can do it via a third party application e.g. via Dropbox: e.g. for photos: photos stored with your current primary account > manual transfer to dropbox > after you made your secondary account to the primary account, transfer the photos back to your new primary account etc.

Can I use an iTunes card to purchase iCloud storage?

Can i use an iTunes card to purchase iCloud storage?

Looking at your stated article on 01/04/2014 in the additional information near the bottom it says explictely that you cannot use a itunes gift card to purchase. Then it says you can use store credit. How elese would you get store credit other than a itunes gift card? Maybe there is a quasi answer. Yes you can use existing store credit before you sign up for account, but not actually during the checkout. At times thru the year apple will rune utunes $25-$50 gift cards on sale for 20% off. Usually when a new iPhone comes out. I just bought a $50 gift card for $40. Xmas I guess. So I guess until someone trys this for services like plus iCloud Storage OR iTunes match we just don't know until someone post. For people looking for a defintive answer today- itunes gift cards are only good for purchases of Apps, Movies, Music. No hardware like iphones, cables, adapters, etc.

No since you can only sync with one computer.

If i subscribe to itunes match can I use this to transfer my music to a new laptop

if i subscribe to itunes match can I use this to transfer my music to a new laptop

Don't.
1) Match would be horribly slow unless you have a tiny library.
2) Match won't transfer all file formats. I am pretty sure it is just music.
3) Match may degrade your music quality if you use high quality file formats.
Why not simply copy the whole iTunes folder to the other computer using an external drive, then start iTunes on the other computer while holding down the option/alt key and select the copied folder? This will copy the entire library intact.

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.
If your sister doesn't know the password for her old ID, and if her old ID is an earlier version of her current ID, she needs to temporarily recreate the old ID so you can delete if from your phone using her current password. To do this, have her go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with her current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to her old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to her old email address. You can now use the password for her current ID to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for her old account ID. After you do this, Next, have your sister recreate her current ID again by going back to https://appleid.apple.com and changing her primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.
Then your can save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to the camera roll on your device, then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted. You will be prompted to either keep or delete the iCloud data from your device. If the data is already in another account you can choose Delete. If you need to migrate it to another account, choose Keep, then choose Merge when signing into the new account.

How can I transfer music from my old iphone 4 to the new iphone 5S without having the music synced to my laptop (e.g. my itunes library is empty)?

How can I transfer music from my old iphone 4 to the new iphone 5S without having the music on the old phone synced to my laptop (e.g. my itunes library on the laptop is empty) ?
I tried the "Transfer Purchases" option - however this only worked for apps - not sure if I'm missing some sort of setting.
I do not want to use iCloud as I do not have enough space for my music.
Thanks!

You cannot. The music must be in the iTunes library first. See these User Tips:

Can I use firewire to transfer everything from my Macbook Pro (Intel Core 2 Duo 2.25 GHz) to the new iMac (2.5GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5)?

I have a MacBook Pro to use at work. It has everything (all genuine softwares, server connection etc). The company is using a contract IT company so connecting to the server and setting email is real issue with me as this IT people can't configure Mac. Last time it took them 1 week to set up everything for me ( me one the phone with them as they aren't coming to our office - they only use QuickViewer to get access to my laptop).
Now the company is buying me an iMac so that I can use the laptop at home. Can I use firewire to transfer everything to the new iMac so that I don't waste my time installing softwares & calling this IT people to set up my email and connection to the server again? If it works do I have to enter serial numbers in again for all the softwares or I have to buy new softwares (I know with Adobe CS - I can only install in one computer)?
Thanks in advance.

If you want to use the adobe suite on the imac you will have to deactivate it on the MBP or it will show up as being used. That is if you can only install it on one computer. Some licenses you can install it on 2 computers but it has to say that on the cd key tag.
Sorry to hear about your bad experience with the contractors. It is not that hard to get stuff like that up and running on the mac.

I purchased an album and didn't receive all of the cuts. I have Itunes 9.2.1 so I can't use the new "download past purchases" feature. How do I get the rest of the songs?

Look under the Store menu in iTunes on your computer for the "Check for available downloads" command and run that. You may find the tracks there to be downloaded.
If not, contact the iTunes Store Customer Service department from their Support page (select the category and subcategory closest to the issue you're reporting and you'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form, or an "Email Us" button) and explain the problem to them.
