How can I download all my music from the cloud to itunes?

I have several hundred songs in the Cloud that I am attempting to download to my local PC iTunes. I have clicked and clicked and clicked on eligible songs, but nothing happens. I get a ghost text window "Download from iCloud" but nothing happens. I have the most recent version of iTunes. This is the PC that I sync my iPhone to and I don't want hundreds of songs in the cloud as they have proved difficult to play. I have spent days downloading all of the songs to my iPhone, but I have had no luck downloading any to iTunes. What am I doing wrong?

If they are on the phone, simply transfer them to the computer.
Connect the phone to the computer.
In iTunes, right click on the phone and select "Transfer Purchases".

  • How can I download ALL my music from the cloud to an external device?

    This seems simple enough, yet I've had nothing but problems downloading all my music in the Cloud to my Mac OR to an external device (preferred).
    How, exactly, is this accomplished?  Many thanks for any direction.

  • How can i download all my music from the cloud so it is always on my wifi only ipad

    I have a wifi only ipad with music stored on the cloud.  I want all the music to be on my ipad so when I don't have wifi, I still have access to the music. How do I do that?

    Download the music. Go to the purchased tab in iTunes and download the songs. Are you using iTunes Match?

  • I have downloaded all my music from the cloud to my new iPhone and created playlists so I can listen to it when not it wifi like when on a plane. If I turn on iTunes Match will I still have this music still downloaded?

    I have downloaded all my music from the cloud to my new iPhone and created playlists so I can listen to it when not it wifi like when on a plane. If I turn on iTunes Match will I still have this music still downloaded? The online information suggests all my music will be replaced. Will I have to download it again??

    What you have on your computer is your iTunes library, not an iTunes "account."  The account that is related to iTunes is your Apple ID, which you use to sign in to the iTunes Store and make purchases.  It is also used with iCloud.  iPods (that are not iPod touch) are associated with your iTunes library, not to your Apple ID.
    So, I think you probably just need to set up (or update) automatic syncing for the iPod.  If it's not set up to sync those new songs, iTunes still syncs the iPod, but it syncs nothing
    In iTunes, if the sidebar (along left side of iTunes window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  In the sidebar, the iPod appears under DEVICES, when it is connected.
    Select the iPod in iTunes.  There is a row of buttons, starting with Summary.  Click on Music next to Summary.  This is the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
    Check the box for Sync Music (if it's not already checked).  If your iTunes music library fits completely on the iPod, you can choose to sync Entire music library.  Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  On the lists below, checkmark the playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres that you want on the iPod.  When you click Apply, the songs from your selection sync to the iPod.
    One convenient way to set this up (if you can't sync the entire iTunes music library) is to create a new playlist in your iTunes library.  Name it "iPod Songs" (or whatever you want).  Put ALL songs that you want on the iPod on this playlist, including those new songs.  Back on the iPod's Music screen in iTunes, select this playlist under Playlists.  Going forward, to update songs on the iPod, just update that playlist in your iTunes library (add/remove songs).  The next time you connect the iPod (or click the Sync button), iTunes automatically syncs the same changes to the iPod.

  • HT1386 How can I transfer all my music from my iPhone to iTunes?

    I just got a new computer forcing me to dowload iTunes all over again. I have all my music on my iPhone but i want to transfer it to my iTunes library. How can I do this? Every time i try to sync it, it says that all songs on my phone now will be replaced with the songs in the library...meaning since there is no music there that it would just be erasing all my music on my phone. PLEASE HELP. Thanks.

  • I need to set up a new iTunes account. How can I get all my music from the old account on to the new one??? Thanks../

    I have just bought an ipad 2 and wish to set up a new account as now I won't have to share with my sister. I want to get all the music off my current iTunes account &amp; put it on to the ipad/new iTunes account. I'm not too sure how to do this though.... Please help lol :-) x

    If you mean iTunes libraries or computer user accounts, just create one. To make a new iTunes library on Windows, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and choose Create Library.
    If you mean iTunes Store accounts, click here and request assistance.

  • Just got a new iPod Classic and can only sync 536 songs of the almost 8,000 that I have stored in the cloud. How can I download all my music to the new iPod Classic?

    Does anyone have an idea how to transfer music stored in the cloud to a new iPod classic?

    You must download it to your iTunes library first, before syncing the iPod classic.

  • Since I downloaded the most recent version of iOS, my iPad and iPhone do not have all the music (from CD's) anymore that I have on our home computer iTunes Library.  How can I get all our music onto the music libraries on the iPhone and iPad? Thanks!

    Hi
    Since we downloaded the latest version of iOS on our iPad and iPhone, and synchronized our music collection in the Cloud, we can no longer see on our iPad and iPhone the music from our CD's that we have on our home computer's iTunes library.  We can only see music in the iPhone and iPad library that have been purchased on iTunes.  How can we get all our music from our computer's iTunes librbary visible on the iPhone and iPad?  Thanks, Nick

    Hello Sudhanshu Mishra,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    You can have iTunes reference the content where ever it is on your HDD without copying the content to the iTunes library, thus using twice the space.
    If iTunes is set to "Copy files to the iTunes Music folder when adding to library," iTunes will copy all content that is added to the iTunes library to the iTunes Music folder. To adjust this setting or change the location of this folder, go to the Advanced tab in iTunes Preferences.
    From: Adding music and other content to iTunes
              http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1473
    Additionally if you want the content to then ALSO be located in your iTunes Library folder so everything is all kept together nice and tidy, use this:
    Consolidate your files in the iTunes folder
    Depending on how you imported items into iTunes, some items in your library might be stored in different locations (in another folder or on another hard disk, for example).
    You can consolidate all the files in your library in the iTunes folder—for example, to make it easier to move your library to a new computer.
    Choose File > Library > Organize Library.
    Select “Consolidate files.”Files remain in their original locations, and copies are placed in the iTunes folder.
    To create folders (Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Audiobooks, and so on) inside your iTunes folder, and place all your imported media files in the appropriate folders, select “Reorganize files in the folder ‘iTunes Media.’”

  • How do I get all my music from icloud to my itunes on my computer and my iphone and stop using icloud?

    how do I get all my music from icloud to my itunes on my computer and my iphone and stop using icloud?

    Hi,
    You music is not in your iCloud account, it is in iTunes in the Cloud. Whether you use iCloud personally or not, it will not have an effect on the iTunes in the Cloud functionality. If you are using iTunes, then all of your purchases through iTunes will use iTunes in the Cloud as a backup for your purchases.

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is oen way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  File>Devices>Transfer Purhases
    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
