Music in the cloud not showing up

This is really starting to get frustrating. Apple needs to get their crap together. I can't access any of my music in the cloud. The "Hide items in the cloud" is greyed out. There are no cloud icons next to my music or movies, local content only. I know this isn't the place but since a few days ago my iMessages and been screwed up horrendously. It's like I've got two complete different converstations going on between OSX and iOS. Seriously?! What is going on Apple?! I'm usually the one defending but this is rediculous. Get your crap together!

Man, I was pretty upset last night. Nothing seemed to be working right. The View -> SHowed items in the cloud was greyed out. It was the Preferences -> Store. For some reason it became unselected after updating to 11.01 which is weird. Thanks Steve.

    how to transfer music from itunes to the cloud not bought on itunes

    You cannot yet transfer music from your system to iCloud. That capability will come with iTunes Match, expected any day now though probably not initially in all countries. iTunes Match will also not be a free service.

  • Music in the cloud not 256Kbps

    In an attempt to upgrade music quality I've deleted a lot of old songs that are at 128Kbps.  Yet in the cloud, and when I download them, they stay at 128Kbps.  These are well known artists like Aerosmith.
    Why are they not downloading as 256Kbps?

    Only Matched songs will be available for download at 256Kbps.  Open iTunes, go to the View menu, select View Options... and put a check mark next to iCloud Status (middle column).  Then in iTunes scroll all the way to the right.  Here you will see which songs are matched and which are uploaded.  If a song is uploaded (rather than matched) you will only be able to download the original file that was uploaded and the higher quality 256Kbps version will not be available for download.

  • Music in the Cloud Won't Show in iTunes

    I was trying to fix a playlist sync problem in iTunes on my MacBook Air (the playlists I deleted would re-appear in iTunes after syncing with Match).
    I now seem to have a new, much more serious problem.
    That is, when I enable iTunes Match and verify "Show Music in the Cloud" option is enabled, NOT ONE SONG THAT IS IN THE CLOUD BUT NOT ON MY MAC SHOWS UP.
    The specifics are as follows:
    I have around 3500 of around 5500 songs in iTunes on my mac.
    "Turn Off iTunes Match" is the currently available option under the "Store" menu.
    "Hide Music in the Cloud" is the currently available option under the "Store" menu.
    If I go to my Mac Mini, open iTunes and select "Show Music in the Cloud" it shows all of the roughly 5500 songs that are in iTunes Match.
    NOTHING I do on my MacBook Air (turning off iTunes match then turning it back on, choosing "Update iTunes Match" from the Store Menu, selecting "Hide Music in the Cloud" then selecting "Show Music in the Cloud") seems to have any affect.  I'm looking to download a song I purchased on my iPhone but am 100% unable to do so due to this issue.
    Can anybody help me fix this issue?  I'm actively paying for a subscription that I'm unable to use, so this isn't exactly reasonable.

    I ended up stumbling across this, so I decided to give it a try.  It appeared to fix the issue:

  • I have downloaded all my music from the cloud to my new iPhone and created playlists so I can listen to it when not it wifi like when on a plane. If I turn on iTunes Match will I still have this music still downloaded?

    I have downloaded all my music from the cloud to my new iPhone and created playlists so I can listen to it when not it wifi like when on a plane. If I turn on iTunes Match will I still have this music still downloaded? The online information suggests all my music will be replaced. Will I have to download it again??

    What you have on your computer is your iTunes library, not an iTunes "account."  The account that is related to iTunes is your Apple ID, which you use to sign in to the iTunes Store and make purchases.  It is also used with iCloud.  iPods (that are not iPod touch) are associated with your iTunes library, not to your Apple ID.
    So, I think you probably just need to set up (or update) automatic syncing for the iPod.  If it's not set up to sync those new songs, iTunes still syncs the iPod, but it syncs nothing
    In iTunes, if the sidebar (along left side of iTunes window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  In the sidebar, the iPod appears under DEVICES, when it is connected.
    Select the iPod in iTunes.  There is a row of buttons, starting with Summary.  Click on Music next to Summary.  This is the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
    Check the box for Sync Music (if it's not already checked).  If your iTunes music library fits completely on the iPod, you can choose to sync Entire music library.  Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  On the lists below, checkmark the playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres that you want on the iPod.  When you click Apply, the songs from your selection sync to the iPod.
    One convenient way to set this up (if you can't sync the entire iTunes music library) is to create a new playlist in your iTunes library.  Name it "iPod Songs" (or whatever you want).  Put ALL songs that you want on the iPod on this playlist, including those new songs.  Back on the iPod's Music screen in iTunes, select this playlist under Playlists.  Going forward, to update songs on the iPod, just update that playlist in your iTunes library (add/remove songs).  The next time you connect the iPod (or click the Sync button), iTunes automatically syncs the same changes to the iPod.

  • My iTunes is only showing music in the cloud.

    This just started happening last night. All of a sudden, all of my playlists are gone and iTunes is only showing music from the cloud. All of my music is on my local computer but it doesn't appear in iTunes. I've turned off the cloud functionality and then no music is displayed at all.  Because of this issue, my phone's music is no longer syncing to iTunes since I use a play list to sync. Same issue with my movies and apps. The entire library in iTunes has been replaced by the cloud. iTunes Match and Genius are turned off. They were never turned on.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

    Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.

  • The Music Icon App is not showing under use cellular data

    The Music Icon App is not showing under use cellular data.
    When I go to settings, cellular the Music Icon is not listed.  I cannot turn on use cellular data for itunes for my music in itunes match.  How do I get the icon listed there.
    Thank you.

    Hi crcalnan,
    There should be an entry in that section for iTunes, which includes both the iTunes Store and iTunes Match:
    Set when cellular data is used for apps and services. Go to Settings > Cellular, then turn cellular data on or off for any app that can use cellular data. If a setting is off, iPhone will use only Wi-Fi for that service. The iTunes settings include both iTunes Match and automatic downloads from the iTunes Store and the App Store.

  • HT204053 I have iCloud turned on, but when I go to iTunes, I do not see any music with the cloud.

    I have iTunes turned on, but do not see any music from the cloud (with the little cloud prefix in front of the song) on my MacBook Pro.

    iCloud only allows you to access your music from iCloud in two ways.  First, you can redownload music previously purchased from the iTunes store (in many countries), as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.  Second, you can access your iTunes library from iCloud (up to 25,000 songs) if you subscribe to iTunes Match.  See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/.

  • Why itunes uses tags from itunes store instead of my personlizaed tags when the show music form the cloud is activated?

    When the option show music from the cloud is activated itunes overwrites the music tags from each song that was bought in the itunes stores, using the orignal tags from the store, this is very anoying

  • HT204053 I sent a request through regarding "billing" about 2 1/2 weeks ago and I have not heard back from anyone.  My cc was charaged $24.99 for a year of music in the cloud - I DO NOT want this service.........  Please credit my American Express credit

    You aren't addressing Apple here.  This is a user to user technical support forum.
    If you are trying to get a refund for iTunes Match, try calling the Apple online store (1-800-MYAPPLE in the U.S.).

  • I got a new iPhone 5 when I went to add my music back from the cloud Not on this iPhone Rihanna for some reason will not re load to my new phone the Little wheel just keeps moving

    whats up with that I have one beatles song and one kenny chesney also

    Mate, I'm trying to find out if it was shipped like that or not. If someone else has had the same issue then I can go back to Apple and have them look into it further. If not then as I said Vodafone is selling second hand phones and they will have to replace the phone.
    Vodafone account manager is saying that he has never heard of anything like it.
    So I'm left with one of 3 answers.
    1: The phone was shipped like that so its a factory error.
    2: The Apple genius doesn’t know what he's talking about then I can go back to the store and ask for a second opinion.
    3: Vodafone is selling second hand phones as new.
    I need to narrow it down so I can deal with the account manager appropriately 

  • Error 3131: Will not download my music from the cloud

    Just got a new mac and it partially downloaded my music from the cloud but when I try to finish downloading it gives me Error 3131. I have tried logging out and back in, as well as quitting iTunes and restarting.

    Make sure you have the latest software updates for OS X and iTunes, if you aren't sure how to do that take a look at this Apple doc -> OS X: Updating OS X and Mac App Store apps.
    If that doesn't take care of it, try following along with this Apple doc -> iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads

  • How do I backup my music in the cloud to my mac

    How do I back up my music from the cloud to my mac?

    One of the key steps that you'll need to take is (after signing into the iTunes Store) open the Preferences & choose the "Store tab".
    You'll then be able to make sure that the "Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases" is selected.
    After that, you go to your Library - where you need to select "Music" - be it your songs or your albums. At this point you may see an iCloud icon right next to the selector - or not; if you don't see it, then you'll need to select "View" from the iTunes menu bar. You will then see on the drop down menu list either "Show Music in the Cloud" or "Hide Music in the Cloud"; that's your toggle which you use to unveil your Music in the Cloud icon.
    Now there is just one more preference that you may need to use to see all of your iCloud icons and that is also found right under "View"; it's "Show View Options" where you may need to check the box labeled "iCloud Download" from among the various "View Options".
    So now that all of your preferences are set, you can plainly see which songs that are in the Cloud (the ones with the Cloud icon right next to the song or right on the album).....or if there is no Cloud icon then it's already in your library or has been downloaded into your Library. To download a song or album just click on the Cloud icon & it begins to download into your library.
    So now you can choose which songs &/or albums you wish to download or re-download - depending how you wish to manage your iTunes library - which I won't go into here as there are so many options in addition to what we've gone over.
    I hope that I've been able to help as there are so many preferences & options, indeed.
    Enjoy
