How do you store music on icloud?

I just went to back up my iPod onto my old computer since I cannot back it up onto my new one obviously and I noticed that it gave me an option to back my ipod up onto iCloud on my computer. So I went onto my iPod to access iCloud and it will not let me back up my music onto iCloud via my iPod. Its not even listed as an option. Any suggestions?

Any purchases you have made through the iTunes Store are already stored in the cloud and can be re-downloaded at any time from the purchased section in the iTunes Store.
If you wish to store more than purchased music in the cloud, then you will need to subscribe to iTunes Match.

How do you store apps in the Icloud??

By either restoring your iCloud backup, which will restore all data, settings, apps and other purchased media contained in the backup, or by redownloading them from the app store as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 (which will restore the app, but not any app data).

How do you download music from iCloud to a new computer?

Hi Heatheretd,
So, you have a new computer, and you have loaded the most current version of iTunes 11 onto it, correct? What type of computer is it - that will make it easier to walk you through this....
And we are assuming your mean all your PURCHASED music from iTunes? Or are you talking about moving an entire iTunes library from an old computer to a new one.....
Cheers,

How do I store music on my ipad and use music match?

Using an iPad2 with Music Match, how can I store music on my iPad as well?
Using iTunes 11, I no longer seem to have the ability add music to my iPad. If I try to manually drag and drop them onto my iPad an error says " Some of the files were not copied to the iPad because iTunes Match is enabled on this iPad."
I travel for a living and discovered on Thursday whilst on a plane that I no longer have music on my iPad and whilst on an international flight, there was no way of accessing "my iCloud" from within the real clouds!!"
I would like to be able to store music on my iPad for when I am offline, and still access my other music when I am online.
Is this possible and if so how ? All assistance appreciated!

Thank you so much for the response. This half sorts out my issue, as turning off Musicmatch means I can load music onto my iPad, but the minute I turn it back on to access my library whilst travelling I will lose what I have loaded as it comes up saying " all music will be erased".
I really apprecaite your time, so will just have to live with what I load. Seems weird that Apple wouldn't consider people want to listen to music on planes or in Non - wifi zones??
Thanks again!

How do you download music and burn to a cd so it will play in a car radio

How do you download music and burn to a cd so it will play in a car radio?

Download the tracks you want form the iTunes Store, Amazon MP3, or other online music retailer.
Use iTunes to put them into a playlist.
Open the playlist and click File > Burn Playlist to Disc. (Have a blank CD-R ready for this step.) When the dialog comes up, choose "Audio CD."
This will create an audio CD that will play in a normal CD player such as the kind found in cars.

HT4847 How can I store files on iCloud?

How can I store files on iCloud?

Actually, I have found that this is very possible, combining several other tips from around the web, though perhaps not easy. I am using Moutain Lion. I am assuming that you have already activated and signed into iCloud previously. Here are the steps for creating a cloud storage location that you can drage any file into, and access from any of your Macs:
1) Create a new folder in the directory that is synced with iCloud. Start by opening a Finder window, and going to the ~/Library/ directory. Do this by typing Shift-Command-G while the Finder is open, and typing ~/Library in the goto window. Next, open the directory "Mobile Documents". Finally, Control-Click inside the Finder and select the "New Folder" option, naming it whatever you like -- I chose "iCloud".
2) Step two is about creating a shortcut to this iCloud folder in the Finder. You cannot directly drag the iCloud folder into the Favorites section of the Finder, but you can do this: Control-Click on your new folder, and select "Make Alias". Now, drag this alias over to your Favories panel in the finder. You will be prompted whether you really want to move the Alias out of iCloud: Say "Yes". Now, delete the Alias -- you don't need the original instance of it any more. (Alternatively, you can skip to the end of step 3 and drag the symbolic link into the Finder Favorites)
3) Step three is about being able to access this iCloud folder from the Unix command line, and from the Desktop GUI. Open a Terminal window (Launchpad => Other => Terminal). By the way, I recommend putting the Terminal into your Taskbar, if it isn't already. You should be in your home directory ... to verify, type "cd" and press Enter. Now, create a Unix symbolic link (an Alias won't work for this) to the actual location of the iCloud folder:
Type "ln -s ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents/iCloud/ iCloud" and press enter. The command should be entered precisely, I recommend cut and paste. The first character is a lower case "L" and there is a space after the backslash between "Mobile" and "Documents". You should now have a symbolic link to the iCloud folder created. To view it in the Finder, go to your home directory: Shift-Command-G, and then enter "~/" into the window. You should see a folder called "iCloud" there, with a little arrow animation in the corner. You can drag this into the Taskbar to have a permanent clickable shortcut. You can also access the contents of this folder through the terminal. From your home directory, just type "cd iCloud" and press Enter. You are now in the iCloud folder (or more properly, your local version of it), and can use the usual Unix tricks ... "ls" to list contents, "mkdir ABCD" to make a new directory called "ABCD", "mv a.txt b.txt" to rename a file "a.txt" into "b.txt", etc.
4) Step four is about accessing this folder on other machines. On a second Mac, repeat all of the steps above *EXCEPT* for creating the New Folder in step 1 ... it already exists, but you can get it into your finder bar, and create sym-links in the same way from there.
The great thing about this is that when you work, you are editing a *local* copy of the file, so you can work offline if you like. Then, whenever you have internet access, the *actual remote* cloud copy of any new or modified files is uploaded. Likewise, updated files are downloaded from the cloud to get your local files into sync. You have the benefit/safety of a local hard copy, AND the portability (and extra safety) of cloud storage. It's exactly what I wanted, and it works like a dream. Plus, time machine can back up your *local* copies, to maintain version history. I'm not quite sure what happens if you try to simultaneously edit a file from two places, but don't do that.
Hope that helps you!

How can I store music in my remote library in my iPad library

I don't know what your remote library is so you will have to explain that one.
Music is stored in the music app and it gets into the Music app via the sync process with iTunes on your computer or direct downloads from the iTunes Store on your iPad.

how do you remove music or books permanently from account?

You can't, you can only hide them via your computer's iTunes so that they don't show in the cloud for redownloading : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support.
If your computer is a Mac with Mavericks or Yosemite on it then you hide books via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iBookstore homepage in its iBooks app.

Hi ken511,
I see that you desire to have a way to store your music in the cloud and be able to play it remotely on multiple devices. There is such a feature, and it is called iTunes Match:

How do you import music from an ipod to itunes?

If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod. And here is a guide about how to import music from iPod to iTunes. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.
