How do I get iCloud to play on my iPhone?

First, patience, I'm techno-impaired.
Second, I thought (thought!) I heard that I could play all my iTune playlists on my iPhone through iCloud without having to take up ALL my iPhone memory. True? If so, how do I do that?
Lastly, if I have no wifi, etc. Can I switch to a selection of iTunes already on my iPhone? Guessing that if the above is true, I can tweak my settings to go automatically to iCloud and not the iTunes already downloaded to my phone, right?
Many thanks!

You would need to subscribe to iTunes Match:

I'm not sure what you mean by this. If you have tracks downloaded to your iPhone, you can of course play them at any time. Your iPhone will play local tracks when available, not the copies stored in iTunes Match. If you want your phone to play from the cloud, delete your local copies.
Regards.

How do I get iCloud app back on my iPhone 4?

Hi I somehow have lost my iCloud app on my iphone4 and can't seem to be able to download it back on? Can anyone please hellp?

One more questio: are the photos that are not syncing to your computer photos that were added to the camera roll before you turned on photo stream on your phone? If so, this is normal. Only photos added to the camera roll on your phone after turning on photo stream are uploaded to your photo stream, not photos added before turning it on.

How do I get iCloud to work on my iphone

I cannot seem to set up iCloud on my iphone. Apple updated my phone yesterday to 6. I have lost my calendar and text messages only and have no way of retrieving it as itunes had a technical problem happening, while I was doing my back up. Apple support refuse to help. Very nice people (not)!. Can anybody help me with iCloud at least please?

I went to www.icloud.com and registered with my apple ID. That was it. There was no option to create a icloud account. I'm from Australia...could that be an issue?

Because my iphone was updated 2 days ago...I'm still learning my way around it. Where are my accounts list?

Cannot get iCloud to work on upgraded iPhone

This week I upgraded my iPad (iPad 2), & iPhone (iPhone 4) to IOS7.
I did the iPad2 first. There were no problems with the upgrade to IOS7. After upgrading, I logged into iCloud on my iPad using the correct ID and gave correct password. There were no problems. I was able to wanted to turn on "Find my iPad" without any problem.
I upgraded the iPhone4 next. There were no problems with the upgrade to IOS7. After upgrading, I logged into iCloud, again using the correct ID and correct password. I immediately received this error message:
"Photo Stream - Photos for the iCloud account "iCloud" cannot be accessed. Review your account information in Settings".
You are given the choice of "Ignore" and "Settings". I pressed the "Settings" button and arrived at the main settings screen, with no other information. However, the iCloud setting is greyed out (disabled). I cannot access any iCloud settings. Likewise, in the "Photos & Camera" setting, the icons for "My Photo Stream" and "Photo Sharing" are greyed out (disabled).
Nothing I do will allow me to access iCloud settings.
I tried turning off the iPhone (resetting it). Once I turn it on again, I go to settings/iCloud. Tapping this brings up the iCloud login. I enter the correct password (for the correct ID), and immediately get the above "Photo Stream..." error.
I have tried this 4 times now. I can say with some confidence that resetting the phone does NOT fix the problem.
SO - what is going on, and how can I get iCloud to work on my iPhone?
Thanks.
p.s. The iPad's iCloud is working just fine.

If your iCloud setting is greyed out, go to Settings>General>Restrictions>Accounts (near the bottom) and set this to Allow Changes.

How can I get audio to play from my TV when using hdmi cable? Video looks great, just no sound.

How can I get audio to play from my TV when using hdmi cable? Video looks great, just no sound.
I've tried plugging the hdmi into the TV directly and the receiver.
I get video every time. HBO to Go , Xfinity, ABC, Youtube, etc...
just no audio. Any suggestions?
I've tried starting the apps then plugging in the hdmi cable.
I never tried this before I upgraded to IOS 5.

Claudiamil-
I had not tried it with mine since upgrading to iOS 5, so I just did. I'm using a small Vizio HDTV. I did not try YouTube, but did try several videos and musical numbers. In all cases there was sound, including stereo when the source had it.
I assume you are getting sound from the iPad when the adapter is not connected, so the volume is not turned down. Dah*veed's suggestion to reset may be what you need.

I changed my apple id but the apple id for icloud did not change on my mac. How do I get icloud account information to change and match my new apple id?

I changed my apple id but the applie id for icloud did not change on my mac in system preferences.
I have changed my apple id on system preferences under users and groups but the icloud preferences don't pick up the change.
I restarted my computer, and still no change.
I have been using icloud under my old apple id for mail calendars and notes.
How do I get icloud account information to change on my mac's system preferences and match my new apple id?
I am missing something.
Please help. Thanks.

Thank you Roger, your solution gave me the courage to sign out of Systems Preferences. The pop up told me it was going to delete my contact and other information from my mac, so I was hesitant to do that. Well I did as you directed and I was able to sign in with my new apple id and I did not lose the information the pop up threatened I was going to. So again thank you. It is the little things that make a big difference sometimes.

How do I get iTunes to play more than one song at a time on my PC?

I have selected all in a playlist, then click the play button. It plays only the first song in the playlist. How do I get it to play all of those selected?

My iTunes is doing the same thing: when I select a playlist and hit "play," if shuffle is turned on, iTunes plays only one song and then stops. If shuffle is turned off, it plays just fine (one song after another, in order).
Select the songs, right click - get info.
Select the Options tab and Uncheck *Skip when shuffling*.
Also, when I hit shuffle, it doesn't rearrange the songs in the playlist like it's supposed to.
If you are sorting on any column besides the very first on before the track name, the songs will stay displayed in that same sort order.
When you play the playlist, the list will jump around and be shuffled.
If you are sorting on the very first column, the list will be displayed in the shuffled order and play in that order.

How can I get iCloud to accept my working Apple ID and password

My Apple ID and password works for iTunes and App Store. I'm trying to set up iCloud on my iPhone and iPad but i keep getting an error message that reads unsupported ID. Apple ID must be in the form of email address (@me.com). I don't have a MobileMe account. How can I get iCloud to accept my working Apple ID and password?

I've also reset my password to my Apple ID. I still get the Unsupported ID and password.

Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address. My other devices all have the correct address. How can I get the correct address for my iPhone? The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address. My other devices all have the correct address. How can I get the correct address for my iPhone? The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

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 iPhone (if you're using iOS 7), then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
