What does the cloud with a red arrow pointing down mean?

My friend let me pre-order an album from the iTunes Store using his Apple ID but each song that hasn't been released yet has a cloud with a red arrow pointing down next to it. What does that mean? Do I have to wait until the album is released in order to complete my album? I'm also back on my own Apple ID so does that effect anything?
Thanks,
-Trent

Try this. Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Show All>Music>Off. See if that gets rid of the songs with the cloud icon on them.

I have an ITunes account. I got it when I got my IPOD. I've thought about upgrading, but I didn't see any reason to buy a newer IPOD because they all come with so much stuff I don't want/need. I don't have my current IPOD filled yet and I really don't need an IPOD Touch that has capabilities that my Droid already has. I don't need to be concerned with documents, mail, attaching to Facebook or playing games. I can do all that on my phone. I just want to maintain my music between 3 devices.
So now that I see it is not to my benefit to have this product---can you point me in the direction to cancel this? And how do I get my music back? Will it show up once I cancel my account?

The cloud icon means that the songs are only in the cloud, they aren't stored on your iPad. You can turn off the showing of songs that are in the cloud via Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music (under the 'show all' heading) 'off'. If you want to some cloud songs to show but not all then you can hide the ones that you don't want via your computer's iTunes : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases

What does the cloud with a downward arrow mean?

Every morning i have a coloud with a downward arrow by a song. Sometimes it won't even let me play the song. I have synced my ipod touch and ipone to my laptop and songs are synced. But then randomly i can't play the ones that have the cloud with arrow. any suggestions?

It means the song was previously purchased from the iTunes store and is available for redownload. It won't play because it hasn't yet been downloaded. You can hide this by going to Settings>iTunes & App Store and turning Music off under Show All.
This should only happen with songs that are not stored on your iPod. If you synced music is somehow being deleted from your iPod you might want to post a question over in the iPod Touch forum because this shouldn't be happening.

I'm not sure if they could tell you but you could try contacting Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click iTunes>iTunes Store>Purchases, Billing & Redemption. You will need your serial number, which you can find in Settings>General>About.

Hey there ArmidaKers,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
This article provides information about accessing your past purchases from iTunes in the Cloud, and it should answer your question about the download icon that you’re seeing when browsing the App Store on your iPad.

What is a cloud with a red arrow?

I have some songs on my phone that wont download from the cloud. They have a cloud with a red arrow next to them. How do I get them to download onto my phone?

Hey mate,
If it is next to apps, movies, tv shows, songs, apps you have previously purchased or downloaded, it means you can download it directly to your device without having to purchase it (again).
By the sounds of it, if activate the icon and it cycles for a few moments then stops again, it means you may be trying to download something too large to download over a mobile network. Usually there should be an alert saying "this file needs to be downloaded over wi-fi", but this is not always the case. I suggest you locate a wireless network and try again.

I downloaded a game and now there is a cloud with an arrow pointing down next to the game? I don't know what that means.

Neither will anyone else in this forum, which is for Apple's defunct office suite 'Appleworks'. You need to post in a suitable forum - please pick one from the list here - and if you want to add to your post please either use the 'Edit' link (within the first 15 minutes after posting) or reply to it, rather than creating a new thread as you have done here.

Here I'm quoting a Buzzword QE guy:
"For some actions, we open a new browser tab/window.
If you are in the Buzzword organizer, the New Document icon should open an editor session in the current window. That should work even with popups blocked.
If you are in an editor session, however, the New Document icon will open another browser tab or window. That is considered to be a popup, but of course I don't have an answer to the Safari side of the issue.
I don't think that it's a Flash issue, but I could be wrong on this."

I have just purchase Apple TV and uploaded my itunes from my pc to icloud, this has been shared to my ipad and i now have a little cloud with a red arrow next to all my tunes, so all would seem well, but on the apple tv nothing in music ? is it me?

I have just purchased Apple TV and an ipad, i have uploaded my itunes to icloud from my pc and activated sharing, i now have all my tunes on the ipad and pc and all have a little cloud with a red arrow next to them so all seems well, but when i go on Apple TV, and i'm all signed in and all boxes checked, i click on music, my music, and all files are empty, should i not see my itunes and be able to play them from my apple TV, or have i misunderstood what the cloud is for.?
Any answers please. Apple TV 3rd Gen, Ipad Air.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't play music from the computer if there is none there. If you are using iTunes Match you should now be able to download and play all your music on the Apple TV from the music feature on the main page.

You must have a counterfeit iPod since that latest model sold by Apple is the 5G.
Assuming y have a 5G with iOS 7, that means those songs are available for download via iCloud. To download just tap on the song/icon when an internet connection is availalbe.
Of yo do not want those to show, go to Settings>iTunes and App Store>SOW ALL and turn off Music.

HT1535 what does the cloud mean for my movies

For my ipad, I have a few movies I want on it. Most of my movies have a cloud in the corner and I do not want them on my ipad. What does the cloud mean?

Go to Settings>iTunes and App Store>Show All>Videos>Off. The movies with the cloud icon are movies in the cloud and they should disappear when you do what I posted.
