ITunes in the cloud icon no longer visible

It seems that I am no longer able to view my previous purchases in the cloud. When I first downloaded iTunes 11, the small cloud icon was visible beside the pull down tab for my library. Now it's completely gone. How can I get it back so that I can access iTunes in the cloud?

Thanks for your reply, but it seems that there's no option for it. Here's a screenshot:

Itunes in the cloud - item no longer available

Hi
I am trying to download my previously bought music from itunes, but both my iphone (ios 7) and my work computer (windows, itunes 11) is reporting "the item you tried to buy is no longer available" on all my 861 songs!
How may i fix this? I have tried to restart both the apps and the iphone/computer.
I live in norway btw, and itunes in the cloud shoud be available to me.

ITunes in the Cloud option no longer available in iTunes 12

I upgraded to Yosemite about a week ago, and I am now running iTunes 12.0.1.26. I use my MacBook Air to stream iTunes movie and TV show purchases to my TV, and I like having the option of streaming content directly from the cloud rather than downloading it to my computer's hard drive. Normally, after every iTunes upgrade since the introduction of "iTunes in the Cloud," I have to go to the iTunes preferences menu to enable the "iTunes in the Cloud" setting to see my purchases that are available to stream. (I don't know why Apple doesn't enable this by default. Improvement opportunity!) However, in iTunes 12, this setting is not available. Has the "iTunes in the Cloud" setting been moved somewhere else? I sure hope this feature hasn't been abandoned.
I have signed out of iTunes, deauthorized my computer, turned off iTunes match, and genius, then signed back into everything, but that hasn't helped.
Any guidance would be much appreciated.
I have a 13" mid-2011 MacBook Air with a Core i7 and 4GB of RAM running OS 10.10.

Do you see anything at all on the purchased page, headings links, tools etc.

I can not eject my ipod as the device icon no longer shows up

I can not eject my ipod from Itunes as the device icon no longer shows up in Itunes. I looked on line but none of the solutions were possible to follow as the various options indicated just weren't there!

Accessing iTunes in the cloud

What does "Accessing iTunes in the Cloud" icon just to the right of Music menu item mean. It's animate with scrolling diagonal stripes.

Thanks for taking an interest Mario49 but neither of those linked pages addresses djnavigator72's question. They may deal with a cloud icon but it is not the one the original poster clearly asked about. First, both linked pages contain information about the cloud icon when it appears adjacent to a specific media file. The original poster made it clear he was asking about the cloud icon adjacent to the Music menu, that is, towards the top of the iTunes window not next to a specific media file. Secondly, none of the icons depicted on the two linked pages match the description given by the original poster, that is, an animated icon with diagonal stripes. The linked pages show numerous other types of cloud icons but none with multiple diagonal stripes. The question therefore remains open and I would also like to know what it means.

TS4124 What causes iTunes Match, on an iOS device, to lose the cloud icon next to each song?

What causes iTunes Match, on an iOS device, to lose the cloud icon next to each song. On my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S one cloud shows up for a whole album to tap and download a whole album but the ones next to the songs are no longer there. No songs will delete from my phone once downloaded from the cloud by sliding my finger to the left over the song and tapping delete. Instead it just plays the song when I try to delete it. To delete my music from my device I have to go in to settings and delete all the music. This worked fine for the first week and then one day the cloud status next to each undownloaded song disappeared and started doing this.

Try sync Music from iTune to your iPad again.

How is it possible that i can play music marked with the cloud icon in the music app when i'm not subscribing to itunes match?

When I'm on the same WiFi network as the computer I sync my iPhone to, I can se a lot of songs in my music app marked with the little cloud icon. And when I leave the network, I can see only the songs with this icon that I have played and therefore probably cached.
Where can I read more about this function and get to know it better?
It seems to work like iTunes Match, only limited to 'local' use. I'm not an iTunes Match subscriber, but I have the 'Show all music' setting enabled.
It's a cool function, both it's a bit annoying that i uses up my available storagecapacity. I keep getting warnings that my storage is almost full.
Does the cached music automatically dissapear since i haven't added it while syncing?

This feature is called...
iTunes in the Cloud
It uses no storage on your phone or any in your iCloud storage allocation.

My music is in the cloud, but it's also on my hard drive. Why does it all show with the cloud icon? Anyway to force the iTunes client to recognize that all of the music is already in my iTunes library folder?

Recently moved to a new PC. Upon installing iTunes, in the Settings dialogue, I've indicated where my iTunes library is stored. And yet, all of my albums in iTunes are showing up with the "cloud" icon, meaning that the client doesn't realize there is a local copy. Clicking the "cloud" icon ends up downloading a duplicate copy of the song/album.
Any suggestions for how to fix this...so that my iTunes client knows all of this music is on my hard drive (in addition to being in the cloud)?
Thanks!

I turned on itunes match on my iphone, but still seeing lots of artists without the cloud icon???

Hi ...
I turned on itunes match on my iphone, selected "enable" and first turned OFF the slider that says "show ALL music" ... I still saw a bunch of artists (about 100)
Then I turned the slider to ON and saw about 600 artists (as it should be), but those 100 artists do NOT have the cloud icon next to them (meaning that somehow the music is actually "ON" the iphone) ...
can someone explain?? I thought it would be empty except for icloud, and then the things I download from icloud??

If they do not have the cloud next to them on your iOS device, it means that the song is cached on your device. As your device runs low on space, it clears the cached songs and you'll see the cloud next to it. Each time you listen to a song, the song is actually downloaded while you listen. Next time you listen, it's off the device, not the cloud.

I'm asking because ios5 introduced iCloud. You have to have updated to ios5 to see it.

I have an iPhone 5. It says I have 537 songs on it but every song shows the cloud icon. I have gone through every suggested step I've googled and deleted songs but settings still shows them. When it's plugged into my mac itunes shows it only has 42 songs.

Hi ellafromva,
From your description, it sounds like you may have iTunes Match activated; you may find the following article helpful:

Why do I get the message: additional fees may apply when downloading songs over cellular in my itunes on my iphone 5? Plus I see the cloud icon that is either greyed out or red

I uploaded my old songs on my computer then I tried to sync them in my iphone's music library and I can't listen to the previously purchased songs... They either appear red with the cloud icon or greyed out... And I get the following message when I tap on them: additional fees may apply when downloading songs over cellular
Anyone can help?

Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.

No, those commands do not do that.
I checked with Apple to find out how to do this.
You misunderstood or they gave you incorrect information.
Now, I am looking for a way to see my library on the cloud
You cannot.
to see what it looks like and if it really got matched there.
iTunes Match ($24.99) has not been released yet. The only songs currently available are songs you have already purchased through iTunes.
When iTunes Match is available, you will view your library though iTunes on the computer or the iDevice, just as you do now.
In iTunes on the computer, select the iTunes store.
Click on Purchased on the right side, under Quick links.
This will show you (only) what you have purchased and allow you to redownload these items.
On your iDevice, open iTunes.
Select Purchased across the bottom to see purchased music and allow your to redownload them.
Open the App store and select Purchased across the bottom to see purchases apps and allow you to redownload them.
