HT4914 how do I download my music back onto my phone?

After the ios 6 upgrade on my iphone 4 all of my itunes were uploaded to itunes match/icloud. How do I download itunes again so it is resident on my iphone? I've already tried turning off itunes match on my phone, but no luck.

Did you back up by burning a regular Data DVD in iTunes or by dragging the files to the disc through Windows Explorer and burning in another program? If you did then open iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Advanced and make sure you have the box "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" checked. Insert your DVD and got to File>Add Folder to Library and choose your DVD from the navigation box: Adding Content to iTunes
If you used the iTunes back-up facility in File>Library>Back up to disc then iTunes should recognise the DVD as a back up when you load it up and ask you if you want to restore your tracks from the disc.

    Hi crazytracer6!
    This is a new feature in iOS 7 called iTunes in the Cloud. More information on this can be found right here:
    iTunes Match - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph6e2dfb83
    Songs are downloaded to iPhone when you play them. You can also download songs and albums manually—while browsing, tap .
    Note: When iTunes Match is on, downloaded music is automatically removed from iPhone as space is needed, starting with the oldest and least-played songs. An iCloud icon () appears next to removed songs and albums, showing that the songs and albums are still available through iCloud but not stored locally on iPhone.
    You can choose to only show the songs that have been downloaded onto your phone by following these instructions:
    Just show music that’s been downloaded from iCloud. Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.
    Remove iPhone from your list of “iTunes in the Cloud” devices. In iTunes on your computer, choose Store > View Account. Sign in, then click Manage Devices in the “iTunes in the Cloud” section.
    Then, when you would like to re-download your purchased music, you can find it in your past purchases list:
    Download past purchases

  • HT4910 How do I download my data back onto my phone from icloud. I had to restore from computer but recent data is in icloud.

    Thanks

    If you can see the iCloud contacts in Outlook, you can copy them back to your PC by selecting all the contacts (click one, then press Control-A), then drag and drop the selected contacts to Contacts under My Contacts on the left sidebar of Outlook.
    If you want to copy your calendar back to Outlook, select your iCloud calendar on the left sidebar of Outlook, switch to the list view (select View from the ribbon, then click Change View>List), select your events (click on a single event, then press Control-A), then control drag and drop them to Calendar under My Calendars on the left sidebar.
    Then you can sign out of iCloud on the iCloud control panel and your local copies will still be there.  If you want to add your iCloud email account back to iCloud, you can do this with these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.

    After a catostrophic crash how do I download my music back to itunes from my ipod?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from your ipod: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

  • How do I get my music back on my phone

    Do you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences or do you have manually manage music and videos selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
    Regarding the downloads that haven't been completed, with iTunes on your computer go to Store and select Check for Available Downloads to complete the downloads with iTunes on your computer.

  • HT201272 i lost my iphone with music on that i paid for. how do i download it all back onto my new iphone without paying as i didnt have it backed up?

    I lost my old iphone with music on which i paid for but never had backed up. how do i download it all again without paying?

    Hello, garethfraser1980
    Thank you for the question.  If at any time a purchase is missing or deleted, you can always download it again at any time free of charge by accessing your purchase via the iTunes Store.  Below, I have an article that goes over how to do this.

  • How do I get my music back onto my mac ?

    I had to reinstall OX Lion and now all my itunes are only on my iPhone.
    How do I get them back onto the iMac?

    Hey been there, done that. I moved my music to another external drive and accidentally deleted too much in the process. So the songs are still in iTunes but the Mac can't find them. Not surprisingly.
    iCloud and Match are useless as iCloud says about all my songs on the Mac: "Downloaded". What a big help. Transfer purchases didn't work. Not via the iPhone, not via the iPad.
    I tried various fixes and loads of software but the first thing that has actually worked is Touchcopy12 for Mac. Sporting a brand-new 2013 Mini now, I tried one song first and when it worked (eureka!) I purchased the software and it's now copying 1800 songs to my external hard drive, right from my iPhone 5.
    Not that it was the end of the world but it's nice to have your music when you're at the computer.

  • How can I get my music back onto my iPhone from the the cloud

    I have a new primary PC.  My music Library is on an old dying laptop.  I have found all my music has disappeared from my phone.  Some is on the cloud, but it appears to only be the music purchased on iTunes, only about 1/3 of my collection.  Now I find all the songs on my iPhone are ONLY iTunes songs and I have to download them each time I want to play them.  Since I'm in a regional area with poor coverage, having to download my own songs every time through cellular is ridiculous! How can I copy my entire collection back onto my iPhone?  And then where's the rest of my collection?  Will I have to rip all my cd's again? If so NOT HAPPY AT ALL. Have also lost all my ringtones which were a Podcast that WAS purchased through iTunes - now gone.

    I did this last night, and copied all the music from old laptop onto new one.  But there was still a lot of stuff missing, mainly from my own CDs that I'd ripped.  Also I'm still getting the icon on my iPhone that the music is on the iCloud. This doesn't suit me because it will cost me a fortune to download each song by cellular when I'm out driving.  I need all my stuff on my iphone.  Do you know how I can get it to download everything i need apart from clicking on every album and selecting "download" from cloud one at a time?

  • How do I get my music back onto my iPhone 4S?

  • Music on my phone lost.  When I sync to I Tunes it doesn't add the music.  phone updated to 6.1.  how do I get the music back in the phone.

    Music loaded to my phone is lost.  When I resync to I Tunes it doesn't add the lost music.  My phone was updated to 6.1.  Any suggestions on how to restore the music to the I Phone?

    If the music is in iTunes you should be able to sync it back to your iPhone.
    What settings do you have in the iTunes Music tab for your device?
    Is Sync Music set?
    Is Entire music library checked?
    What happens when you sync?
    If iTunes is confused and thinks the music actually is on your iPhone you could try unchecking Sync Music and then sync. Follow this by checking Sync Music and then sync again.

  • How do i download the music from my i-phone 4 to my laptop?, how do i download the music from my i-phone 4 to my laptop?

    help my computer crashed and i want my music back from my phone

    One choice is to use the computer backup of the old laptop and sync it to the new laptop.  The other is to find some program on the web that reads data from the phone and copies to the computer.  Try googling to find something.
