How do I know if my purchased music is being saved to the "cloud" so I don't need to do any other storage?

You're purchased music is not so much saved to the cloud, but rather indexed, since it is already in the cloud by virtue of being in the iTunes store.
If you want to check whether your purchases are being indexed or not, go to the purchased section on the main page of the iTunes store. There you will see a list of all your purchased items.

How can I know if I purchased music?

I was trying to sincronize my iphone with the pc, suddenly iTunes started to download a lot of albumes of my artists, but I did not buy music... I dont know why it happened, How can I know if I purchased this music?

Open iTunes
Click on iTunes Store
Click on your account ID in upper right corner (below search)
Log in
In Purchase History section click "See all" link
Your purchase history on that Apple ID will be there.

I would like to know how I can transfer all my purchases to a new computer. The laptop which all the music is stored, is broken.

You can also re-download most previous purchases (not just songs) from the iTunes Store from the Purchased screen. So, you should be able to get the "one missing purchase" back too. Sign in to iTunes using the Apple ID used to make the purchases. Go to the iTunes Store. (With the new iTunes 12, select the Music category first, then go to the iTunes Store.) Click on Purchased (along right side under QUICK LINKS). From the Purchased screen, you can find and download previous song purchases, at no cost.
You can also re-download purchases from other iTunes categories, such as Movies and TV Shows.

HT1727 How do I know - BEFORE I purchase a song - whether I'm getting the "Plus" version or the regular DRM-protected version?

The title pretty much says it all, but I'll say it again: how do I know, before I purchase a song, whether I'm getting the free-and-clear Plus version or just the basic DRM-protected version?

If that's true (and I'm not saying it's not), then why do they still refer to "DRM-protected music" in their online help (at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1727) after 4 years of not selling any DRM-protected music? Was it just an oversight on their part, to not update the support page or at least to put an explanation on that page similar to what you provided?

My computer is already authorised with my apple ID, how do i listen to my purchased music?

My computer is already authorized with my Apple ID, how do I listen to my purchased music? iTunes keeps asking me to authorize my computer.

Depending upon what country that you are in (and whether the music is still available in the store) then you might be able to re-download them : re-downloading.

HT4539 How do I listen to my purchases music?

How do I listen to my purchased music on my I pad 2?

They should be in the Music app (iTunes on the iPad is just the iTunes store) :

I recently had to uninstall itunes and reinstall it again. How do I get my previously purchased music back on my itunes?

I recently had to uninstall itunes and reinstall it again. How do I get my previously purchased music back on my itunes?

Depending on what country that you are in you might be able to re-download past music purchases via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page - re-downloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
But if you only re-installed iTunes and you didn't remove the actual music from your computer, then it should still be on there, and you should be able to add it back into iTunes via File > Add Folder To Library - by default your iTunes content should have been stored under :
Windows 7 and Vista : \users\username\My Music\iTunes.
Windows XP : \user\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes.

I just purchased Mountain Lion on the app store, put in new credit card and agreed to terms then nothing happend. How do I know if I purchased this upgrade?

Sometimes if you make a purchase for the first time, use a new billing method (ie credit card) or the App Store terms have changed, I've noticed that you need to press the "Buy" button twice for the purchase to actually go through (ie, you press Buy, you agree to the terms, and you have to press Buy again). You won't get double-charged.
You can check if the purchase is actually downloading by looking in the Purchased tab of the App Store - the Mountain Lion installer will be there if it worked. If not, try the Buy button again.

We have 4 iphones in our family and an Ipad. When we purchase music I would like for the entire family to be able to use it. Should each of us use a different apple account or should we use the same one.

We have 4 iphones and an Ipad in our family. When we purchase music, I would like for the entire family to be able to use it and then back it up to Icloud. What is the best and cheapest way for this to happen. Should we all have a different apple id or should we use the same one.

You will all need to be on the same itunes account ID.
You can however all have seperate icloud accounts aswel.

HT1451 If I have two iTunes libraries on one computer, how do I know which one is opening when I click on the iTunes icon on the desktop?

If I have two or more iTunes Libraries on one computer, how do I know which one is opening when I click on the iTunes icon on my desktop?

You cannot.
When you sync to a new library, it will erase the current content.
Use your backup copy of the old computer to copy everything to the new one.
