HT4847 why can't I see my music backed up in iCloud?

isn't music backed up to the iCould?  If so, how come I can't see it?

Music is not backed up in iCloud.
If you have iTunes Match enabled it is stored online by that service but iCloud is not involved.

  • Why can i only see my music when connected to wifi

    i started to use icloud when i got the new iphone and new ipad.  but i can only see my music when i'm connected to wifi or 4g.  what can i do to use the music when no service is available.

    Under the music tab in your settings you will need to turn on cellular data, with itunes match if your not connected to the internet either through celleluar data or wi-fi it will not play the music because it is streaming from icloud. The only other way to have your music play with out connection is to actually sync them to your phone. See attached.

  • Why can I not see and read individual files in icloud?

    According to the Genius at my local Apple store I have something in the software or files I backed up that us causing a problem with my iphone5, and the solution is to do a 'restore as new phone' after having saved all my data somewhere else (e.g. store all my photos and videos to flickr, email my voice corder files to myself by email) - in other words a major hassle.
    I don't understand why myself or an Apple technician can't just go into my icloud account, do a surgical strike to identify and destroy wherever the problem is and go from there.
    To restore piecemeal is cumbersome and time-consuming. And then I still won't know what caused the problem in order to avoid the problem reoccurring (such as avoiding certain third-party apps or whatever is the problem).
    Makes me think that maybe Dropbox or Google drive might be better choices from some purposes. I got icloud as a cyber filing cabinet, not just a backup if phone or to share across devices.

    You can see the individual data in your iCloud account.  You can see any of it within the apps on your phone that are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc.).  But how would you ever be able to tell which one is corrupt just by looking?  And that doesn't account for the thousands of files that make up the iOS, of other non-iCloud files on your phone.

  • Why can't I see my address book contents in Icloud?

    I was under the impression that the contents of my address book would migrate across to iCloud!  I have the iCloud account selected under 'Preferences' in my Address Book and I have deleted and added my iCloud account to also try and activate the migration, but to no success.  Really now questioning why I am paying for an iCloud account when it does not do what it appears it should do!  I have 2 macs running currently: an IMac and a Mac Book Air, both running Lion 10.7.3; I have dleted the iCloud account on my MacBook Air to just try and run the migration on the IMac, but again no joy.  Somebody (preferably a MAC employee as you guys are the ones that should be helping) help me please?  Thanks.

  • Why can't I see all of my contacts in iCloud?

    Cant see all of my contacts in iCloud that are on my iPhone.  Why?  Is there a way to select which contact are synched...whether from iCloud to iPhone and visa versa?  Thanks

    It's likely because not all of your contacts belong to the iCloud account.  Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section).  Do you have the Default Account setting there, and if so, what accounts are listed and what is set as your default?

  • Why can't I see my music from CD's that were synched to cloud on a different authorized computer?

    I have imported two CD to iTunes on my home computer and synched them to the Cloud, I can't see them on another authorized computer. I was wondering if anyone has any advice? Thank you

    You cd music will not be on icloud.  You will have to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

  • Deauthorized all computers, moved to newest computer and signed in to itunes, why can't i see my music!!!!!

    Please someone tell me where the **** my music is????

    I spoke with the Apple TV tech regarding this Home Sharing "hiccup" and....EUREKA.....all aspects of Home Sharing are working as designed.  Remove your current iTunes and related programs, Restart, and then reinstall iTunes 10.7.  Follow the detailed instructions:

  • Why can't I see my sent messages in iCloud online?

    Why can't I see my sent messages in my iCloud Sent mail box online?

    You may need to go to icloud.com, open Mail, click on the gear-shaped icon on the bottom left and choose Preferences, then on the General tab confirm under Mailboxes that you have checked "Save sent messages in" and selected your "Sent" folder.

  • HT1947 Why can't I see all songs for an artist when using iPad remote for home sharing music through apple tv.

    Why can't I see all my songs for an artist when I search by artist using iPad remote? I'm listening to music via home sharing through apple tv using iPad 2 as my remote. All my songs seem to be listed fine under "songs", but when I select "artist" many of the songs I have for that artist are not there, any idea why that is or how I can fix this.....I suspect it's because many songs may not be associated with an album and it seems only songs in albums are displayed when I search by artist.

    Thanks Ferretbite, but that's not the issue in my case, the songs are not part of a compilation. I just checked several of them and the "Part of a compilation" box is unchecked.....it seems as if the song does not have an album associated with it, it will not display under the artist when I search by artist on the iPad remote which REALLY stinks.
    Hope someone else might have a solution.

  • Why can't I see the airplay icon in the music app or control centre on my Iphone 4 running ios7? I can see it in the movie app

    Why can't I see the airplay icon in the music app or control centre on my Iphone 4 running ios7? I can see it in the movie app

    I've seen something yesterday that says Airplay in control centre is only for Iphone 4S and onwards. It's frustrating when they take something away without any obvious reason. I'm going to change back to IOS6 until it's sorted out.
    I also tried connecting to bluetooth and only once I'm connected does an icon show up in control centre. There's no direct way to connect to a device from control centre on the Iphone 4 from the looks of it.

  • Why can't I see the column browser in iTunes 11.4?

    Why can't I see the column browser in iTunes 11.4?
    Just imported a CD of rare folk music that a friend gave me and want to edit the title, album name, etc like I used to.
    In iTunes under "View" the column Browser options are greyed out - not available.
    Seems that this is the view where editing is possible.
    What can I do to bring back column browser?

    Select Songs (not Artists or Albums) at top and you can use the Column browser.

    I don't really understand what you are asking.  There is no iTunes Player.  iTunes on your computer is not the same as iTunes on your iPad/iPhone/iPod.  On an iOS device, iTunes is just a store, where you buy music, rent or buy movies.  The music you have in your iTunes library on your computer can be synced to your iPad and you choose what music you want to sync to your iPad while your iPad is connected to your computer in iTunes.  When you are not connected to your computer via iTunes, any music you did not sync to your iPad will not be viewable in iTunes, thus it can't be played because you did not sync it to your iPad.  I don't I can make this any clearer.........
