How do i download all my music onto new mac from icloud match?

I have over 7000 songs I would like to transfer from my old laptop to my new one (macbook to macbook).  I opened itunes match and they showed up with the download cloud next to each song. 
1) when i click on the cloud nothing happens
2) once I do get the songs to download how do I just download all so i dont have to click on 7000 cloads?
Thank You for your support

I ended up purchasing a firewire plug and restarted my old computer holding down "T" and it came up as a hard drive on my new computer
from there i just clicked and dragged my itunes music folder onto the new itunes icon and 7000 songs transferred in about 20 minutes!
i then just dragged over my favorite apps as well and everything went smoothly.
Thanks for all your help

    A few years ago I bought music from Itunes.  Recently I deactivated all computers in order to add a new computer.  Most of the music I purchased came through, but I am still missing about 30% of it.  How can I download all the music I have purchased from Itunes?

    Might have luck with that here >  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer on the iTunes Store.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID that was used for the original purchases.

  • HT4910 How do I download my data back onto my phone from icloud. I had to restore from computer but recent data is in icloud.

    I had to restore my iphone from the computer. There is a lot of info on backing up to the icloud but now I need to get the info back that I stored 3 days ago . Please help. I know this is an easy question for somebody but not me.
    Thanks

    If you can see the iCloud contacts in Outlook, you can copy them back to your PC by selecting all the contacts (click one, then press Control-A), then drag and drop the selected contacts to Contacts under My Contacts on the left sidebar of Outlook.
    If you want to copy your calendar back to Outlook, select your iCloud calendar on the left sidebar of Outlook, switch to the list view (select View from the ribbon, then click Change View>List), select your events (click on a single event, then press Control-A), then control drag and drop them to Calendar under My Calendars on the left sidebar.
    Then you can sign out of iCloud on the iCloud control panel and your local copies will still be there.  If you want to add your iCloud email account back to iCloud, you can do this with these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.

  • HT1848 On itunes, when synced to my pc, I show less than half of the music that is on my iphone 4. How do I get all the music onto my pc?

    I am about to scream if I don't figure this out or just decide to leave Apple and get a Galaxy phone. On itunes, when synced to my pc, I show less than half of the music that is on my iphone 4. How do I get all the music onto my pc? I have read many forums and tried many things, but apple/iTunes is not intuitive at least not on a PC. When I go to devices it won't let me select "transfer music". It's grayed out. Why is this and what can I do? I'd like to delete some of the music off of my iPhone but don't want it gone forever. Pleae help.

    Thanks Turingtest2,
    I appreciate your response. I have done all of the things mentioned, but still when I click on "devices", the "transfer music" option is still not selectable. I see it, but can't select it.  I am running Windows 7 on my PC.
    However, one thing I read makes me take pause. At one point I did erase my computer back to factory settings using the mirrored image. We backed up all information and put the important stuff back on, but I don't believe we did anything with iTunes, so it's a possibility that the music that is in my library now, may only be music I have purchased since then. But, (thinking out loud) that was a while ago and I am pretty sure I have purchased more music than what is in my iTunes library, since then.  Maybe I will approach it from that angle and see what happens.
    It just doesn't make any logical sense that syncing goes from computer to device. Ostensibly then, my iPhone would only have the music that is on my computer after syncing and that is not the case. I still have all my music on my phone. I can see the new music that's on my phone get added to my iTunes library when I connect, which would make one think that syncing occurs both ways. I don't know. It's maddening. Maybe I should just follow my husbands advice and go to an Android. LOL. Or maybe I will take my laptop and phone to the Apple store and make them figure it out. Ha.
    If you have any thoughts about this, let me know. Thanks again.

  • How do I download all my photos onto an external hard drive intact without loosing iPhoto's features, important info and details? I need to delete pictures and files to make room in My mac's memory which is currently full.

    So you want to move the iPhoto Library?
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

    Any suggestions on how to properly format and drag into this lttle guy would be great.
    1. go into FINDER at top then PREFERENCES  then GENERAL tab
    then check "hard disks" and "external disks"
    THIS WILL PUT A HD ICON ON YOUR DESKTOP YOU CAN OPEN AND DRAG AND DROP FILES TO
    Your new HD needs to be formatted for use on your Mac, so:
    2. TO FORMAT THE HD:
    Applications > utilities > disk utility
    go to DISK UTILITY and verify what it says your HD is formatted as under the "ERASE" tab
    see from mine below, HD on left selected,   .......ERASE tab highlighted.... and middle right roughly, it says "MAC OSX EXTENDED JOURNALED"
    thats the format,  but yours may be different of course
    bottom right ERASE tab lets you erase/ FORMAT your external  (remember this erases all data ON THE HD!)
    Format/erase it as: "MAC OSX EXTENDED JOURNALED"
    highlighted in RED   Erase.......format (middle) ...........erase ACTION to Erase/Format (bottom)
    Now you can drag and drop files

  • 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

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

  • Question: How do I download previously uploaded CDs onto new iPod?

    Last year I uploaded all my CDs into iTunes through a PC.  This year, I have a new Mac and a new iPod and cannot seem to access my CD library or (and more importantly) download all that music to my new iPod.  I have researched and researched this topic on iTunes Help but cannot find a satisfactory answer. 
    Help?
    Many thanks!
    GraciaHunt

    Please pardon my techno-ignorance  When I uploaded my CDs, I thought I was uploading to iTunes which I then synced to my previous iPod.  Frankly, I am not sure "where" the music is residing now: on my computer or in the cloud.  I just know I uploaded to iTunes. 
    When you say "put my music on my computer" do you mean by using iTunes or some other app?
    Thanks for helping me!

    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?
