AHA! you have to be in the Itunes Store App to find your previous purchases and not in the MUSIC app.
No, you don't need to be inTunes to see them or download them.
They show up in the Music app if you go to Settings > Music and tap Show all music.
You don't need to download them to play them. You can stream them (but use data whenever you play them).
Just download them via wifi or sync them form yrou computer.

Going on holidays and will not have wifi how to I get all the music I want off the cloud and on to my iphone?

Going on holidays and will not have wifi how to I get all the music I want off the cloud and on to my iphone?

Without going through my 21,000 songs and manually selecting.

In iCloud preferences when I deselect an item, e.g. documents I get a message saying the info in documents will be taken off my mac and kept in iCloud. I would rather have in on my mac and not in iCloud. How can I keep my data?

Macbook pro, os 9.4.1.

My mistake, my OS is 10.9.4.
Thank you for your reply.
I guess, I really don't understand iCloud and how files are stored and where. I gather when I was asked to set it up I should have declined. Anyway, it looks like some of my files are stored in the cloud. If I shut off "documents" in the preferences it will remove those docs from my macbook, but they will remain in the cloud and I could get access to them for another computer if I set it up.
I also gather to avoid this, I have to, on a file by file basis, save them to my mac and then they will be on my mac. What I don't get, is that these files must exist on my mac because I can edit it without being connected to the internet. Maybe those files I see when disconnected from the internet are on my mac and I wouldn't be able to see cloud files unless I was connected to the internet.
My concern is that when I deselect "documents" in the iCloud preferences it warns me that those documents on my mac will be removed from my mac. I am afraid to deselect "documents' or "calendars" as a result.
If I seem confused, I am. Please don't feel obligated to reply if my message is too muddled.

I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto. The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all. How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto?

How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto? Even if there are duplicates, I'd like to make sure I get all the photos from my phone into iphoto. Thanks

To see all the photos on the phone, including photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, deselect the "Hide Photos Already Imported" checkbox. If the camera contains photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, those photos are hidden by default.

I uploaded my photos to my computer. I now have all my albums and photo library on my phone. I cannot get the off my phone and cannot take pictures on my camera.

Connect your phone back and resync except this time uncheck all the albums from itunes when you sync. This will take all the albums off your phone and clear up space on your phone.

I was having issues with my 80G Video iPod and had to restore it, but now it seems all of my music on it previously is "corrupt" . How did all my songs get corrupted and how do I fix them?

I was having issues with syncing my 80G video iPod, so I restored it, and now all my songs in my library are "corrupted" and I can't get them back on my iPod. I keep getting error(-69). How did my songs all get corrupted, and how do I fix this without having to purchase these songs all over again?

Go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. From there you should be able to re-download some or all of your purchased content. Note that not all content has been licensed for re-downloading in all countries at this time; you can see what content you can download here:

You can also re-download content using an iOS device.

This if course will not apply to songs you did not buy through the iTunes Store.
Regards.

HT1414 How do I get iOS6 off my iPhone and put back iOS5.1.1??

On an iPhone4 that had iOS5.1.1 (and worked perfectly, by the way), I upgraded to iOS6 and that was when my iPhone 4 became just an iPod with short battery life.
How can I dump iOS6 and get iOS5.1.1 back on my iPhone 4?!
Help!

There is no legitimate way to downgrade iOS.
Apple do not support downgrading.

HT2688 How can I take music albums from my ipad 3 and put them on to my laptop for free????

I have recently purchased a second hand iPad 3. The previous owner left loads of music on there that he purchased from iTunes. How can I get this music from the iPad on to my laptop to free some space up on my iPad for some different apps. Can someone please help???

The picture sync is ONE-WAY - computer to iphone. Iphone is not a storage device or a backup device.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put the pics back.
When you sync pics from your computer to your iphone they are reduced in resolution. They will never be of the original resolution, but you can e-mail them to yourself.

How do i get ios7 off my phone

Recently installed ios7 and cannot get the large icons and text setting anymore. If this is no longer an option, how do I get this off my phone and return to 1os6

Sorry, Apple has no approved method to downgrade the version of iOS on your iDevice. You can voice your displeasure with the iOS by leaving feedback at the appropriate subsection from the link below.

I want to take everything off one ipad and put it on a different one. Same account, different machine. How is this done?

Subject says it all. The orignal machine is backed up to my computer and the cloud, however only about a 3rd of the apps appear in the left "Sync apps" column on itunes. How do i get EVERYTHING off machine one, and put it on machine two?
Thanks!

Possible to get songs OFF your Ipod and onto an external HDD or your PC?

I have songs on my Ipod that are NOT on my PC (thru having to manually manage my library in the past over 2 'smallish' HDDs in my PC).
When I open my Ipod from within Windows I 'see' the songs in the Music folder as .mpeg4 but no song titles so I can't differentiate between them. For example, a song is listed as CVFK.mpeg4, another as DPKQ.mpeg4 etc ...
When I open the Music folder on my Ipod from within i-TUNES I can see the songs I want, I can "highlight" them, right-click and 'COPY' them, but for the life of me I can't seem to 'PASTE' them anywhere...like IN MY LIBRARY which is on my new external USB HDD.
Why be able to "COPY" if you can't do anything with them? It seems you must be able to, but how? I WANT to copy them off my Ipod and put them into that new exteranl HDD that has 75% of my i-tunes library...the other 25% being my Springsteen collection that at the mo is ONLY on my i-Pod.
I am using a 30gb video ipod with latest software (1.2.1), iTunes 7.1.1.5 (latest) and a fully-updated MS Vista Home Premium.
ANY assistance would be GREATLY appreciated.

The transfer of non iTunes Music Store content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows. The procedure is a bit involved and was written long before iTunes 7 and Windows Vista so it requires a little adaptation as the iPod preferences are no longer in the location described for instance but if you're interested it's posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated that will let you transfer individual tracks then there are a number of third party utilities that will do what you want. You can use these to retrieve individual music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, check for Vista compatibility as they may not all have been updated yet. Some of these are free and some are commercial but generally they are not very expensive. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

iPod2PC Windows Only
iGadget Windows Only
YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions

If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod

Okay, so my friends music downloaded to my iPhone when i put it on his computer to charge and i re-synced it to mine and all his music is still there but blank and wont play how can i get it off of my phone, its so annoying!!

Okay, so my friends music downloaded to my iPhone when i put it on his computer to charge and i re-synced it to mine and all his music is still there but blank and wont play how can i get it off of my phone, its so annoying!! My itunes only has like 4 songs because my computer crashed and lost all my songs, and I'm not trying to steal his music. But like I said its still in the music app on the phone but its all blank and wont play. I just want it off.

When he plugs it into his Mac again, he should be asked if he wishes to sync with that Mac.

How did all my music get taken off my phone and put into icloud?
