How do I get my music on my Mac to my iPad and iPhone
I Have a bunch of songs on my Mac but they are not on my iPad or iPhone. How do I get them from iCloud?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your music isn't in iCloud.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option which is revealed in the iTunes app on your iOS device by tapping the more button at the bottom of the screen.
If the content isn't purchased from iTunes you will need to sync it from your Mac:
Connect the device to iTunes on your computer (you can do this with a USB cable or by wifi if your software is up to date). Select your device from the 'Device' list in iTunes (Top right corner in iTunes 11) and navigate to the 'Music' tab. Ensure that the 'Sync Music' checkbox is checked, select the items you want on your device and click apply/sync.

I had an iPhone 4 with all my music on it. Got rid of my desktop when I got an iPad. Now I have iPhone 4S. How do I get my music transferred from old phone to 4s and iPad without a desktop with iTunes on it?
Restore the device from the backup created.
If no backup exists, there is nothing to recover. -

How do I get my emails to download both on my iMac and iPhone the same?
I have recently got an iPhone 5. I also use Mail on my iMac computer. How do I get my emails to download both on my iMac and iPhone, the same? (If I currently fetch my emails on the iPhone, then they don't then appear later when I want them on my iMac and I need to forward them to myself again - crazy!) And can I also receive sent emails on both too? I need identical email lists on both. Thank you, in anticipation!
If you are using POP email accounts, this is how they are designed to work. POP mail gets offloaded from the mail server onto the device used to access it, so it will not show up on another client later as it literally no longer is stored on the server. It may be possible for you to configure your POP mail account to keep messages on the server, so they will always appear every time you access your mail (from any device). The downside of this is that most POP accounts have limited online storage, and the messages will never disappear until you manually delete them, so if you are not very diligent at cleaning out read mail, you run the risk of your account filling up.
Really, for what you want, you should switch to an IMAP mail service. IMAP mail is always stored on the server, not on any one client/device, so it is always accessible from any client on any device. Given that, most IMAP accounts have much larger online storage than most POP accounts, since the mail is intended to stay on the server.
Check with your email provider and see if you can switch your account(s) over to IMAP. If not, there are a number of free IMAP providers, such as gmail from google. -
How can I sync my calendars on the MacBook Pro, iCloud, iPad and iPhone? Since upgrading to the newest OS on each device, none of the calendars sync. Any suggestions?
Hi silverk,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand the need for all of your calendars to be up to date across all of your devices and how frustrating it can be when they are not syncing as you would expect. In this situation I would suggest reading over and using the attached article for troubleshooting.

Have a great day,

tap on particular Apps you want to download and install..
for other items
launch the Settings App
scroll left pane down a bit, just below Privacy

after you are confident enough items have transferred. -
how do i get my music back
You buy one and only one download. it is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
You can try contacting itunes support and asking for a exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

How do I get the music from my macbook to my iphone 5s? It says it is on my phone in itunes but it is not.
Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer (11.1) from http://apple.com/itunes.
Connect your phone to your computer using the USB cable.
Click on the name of your phone when it appears in iTunes.
Is the box "Manually manage music and videos" checked (near the bottom of the Summary page)? If it is, uncheck it.
Click on Music in the top bar in itunes.
Select the music you want on the phone.
Click the Sync or Apply button. -
PC crashed. iTunes was on it and now all files are gone. All music both purchased and copied from CDs is on iPad. How do I get the music back onto the PC without using the cloud. Afraid if sync will wipe all music from iPad.
You would need to download iTunes on comp and download purchases again (you don't have to pay again) and upload your CDs again IF you sync your iPad to your computer it will erase everything
