How to access my iCloud music library on my iPhone

As a newbie to the iCloud/iMatch, I have uploaded by iTunes library to the iCloud and now wish to access my songs on my iPhone (4.5).  I go to settings, turn on iMatch, then go to music and expect to see my library show up.  But I get a screen that says "no content," and that I can download music from iTunes.  Obviously I'm missing something basic here.  How do I get my songs already in the iCloud to show up on my iPhone?  Many thanks for any advice.

Thank you.  I went to the store and found that I hadn't enabled automatic downloads or cellular data.  When I enabled these, the music app found the iMatch material and made it available on the iphone.  However, I find that when I try to actually play a song on the iphone, it takes forever to load and quits stopping on me once it starts playing.  I am on Verizon, and the signal here in fairly strong for email and basic internet stuff.  Is this normal for downloading music off the cloud?

    How do I get my music library from my iPhone to my computer after my computer was wiped and upgraded to 10.6? My iTunes library now has no music and Im afraid if I sync my iPhone to the new music library it will wipe out my music on my iPhone to the library on my iBook which has no music.

    how do i sync the music library on my iPhone 5s to my macbook air. The original sync was on a work computer i no longer have. Please help!

    You will have to search on the Internet for third party software that will allow you to do that.  For business reasons, Apple has made the update process a one way street: ie: from the computer to the iPod/iPhone only.

  • How can I backup my music library on my iPhone 5 before syncing it to a new computer

    I have an iPhone 5 and 795 songs that I would like to keep (most of them I did't purchase them from iTunes) but I recently got a new laptop (finally upgraded to Macbook pro retina display 13'') and I don't want to lose all my tracks. Is there a way I can transfer them into my new computer before I sync it? By the way all my photos and videos were transferred to iPhoto. There was a pop up when I connected my phone with my new mac and I pressed the transfer button. However I didn't sync it yet (I think?). Can I do I transfer them by using AirDrop?

    You will not be able to transfer the items purchased or the other Apple ID. You will need to reinstall the data under your Apple ID and pay for the apps. 

  • How can I export my music library if I can't upgrade my iTunes?

    I have an ancient iMac running an ancient OS (10.4.11). I basically keep it cos I love the design and I spent literally weeks downloading all my CDs onto it back in the day. My iPod just got stolen so I want to put my music library on my iPhone 3GS. Trouble is I cannot update my iTunes on my iMac as the OS is too old and I can't even buy and run a new OS as the processor is ancient too, and incompatible.
    I tried to find some more recent versions of iTunes online that I could run with the OS but they are also too old to sync with my phone.

  • How come I can't add a song to my playlists in itunes match? Is it me or itunes match? It keeps on coming up with a message " iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, the playlist will be removed from iCloud

    How come I can't add a song to my playlists in itunes match? Is it me or itunes match? It keeps on coming up with a message " iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, the playlist will be removed from iCloud and will only be available on this computer"?
    You must surely be able to add and subtract songs on specific playlist?

    I fixed this issue (with help from tech support) and it involved several things.
    After adding a song to iTunes, right-click on the song in iTunes and select "Update iTunes Match."
    OR go to the iTunes menu-->Store-->Update iTunes Match.
    Maybe that's the reason, it just hadn't updated to the cloud.
    OR maybe it's not a high-enough bitrate file.   This happens to me because most of my tunes are home-recorded.
    Sometimes converting to .mp3 or Create AAC version might work. (You do this with a right-click in iTunes, and then you will want to remove the original file from iTunes.)
    There is an iTunes Preferences setting, under General Preferences called Import Settings.  Try setting it to AAC Encoder and iTunes Plus.   That (I think) causes imports to be slightly better quality.
    Good luck!  The tech support person at Apple is requesting that a knowlege-base article be written about this.

  • How do i get music into my Icloud music library?

    I have iTunes match and I was creating a new playlist. I tried to add an album we a message appeared saying " Icloud playlist can only contain songs from your  Icloud music library." How do I get that album  in my Icloud music library and accessible in an Icloud playlist?

    Hi,
    Make sure that your iTunes library on your computer has added the tracks to match. Add icloud status to song view, this will tell you if they have been matched or uploaded. Your playlist should not include ineligible items such as PDFs

    I want to allow my friend to download my music library on his iphone without using the same apple id is this possible.  If so please elaborate.

    This not legal.
