iTunes Match, which you are referring to, will not be up and running until the end of October. You'll see this on the website at: http://www.apple.com/itunes/whats-new/
Just scroll down a little bit and you'll see "coming soon".
And, in the end of October at least in the US. Not sure how they plan to roll out beyond that.

Where is the procedure for uploading my music files to Cloud?

Where is the procedure for uploading my music files to Cloud? I have a portable hard drive that has all my burned songs on it, and I'm trying upload and match those songs for the first time.....

There is no "procedure." When you sign up for iTunes Match, iTunes does all the work for you. But you must have the external HDD connected for it to work.
Also, keep in mind that iTunes Match is not a streaming service. To play your music on your computer you'll still need to have the external HDD connected, unless you decide to delete all the music from your iTunes library.

Where is my music on the cloud

The cloud stole my music. I was logged into itunes and this little cloud symbol appeared beside most of my music, then all those songs disappeared. I have looked at "my cloud" but I am not computer savvy and cannot find anything to do with music on there. It is an expensive amount of music. Where can I find it? Someone please help!

There is no iCloud app or icon on your phone. iCloud is enabled and configured in your settings, but you access your iCloud data through the apps you are syncing with iCloud. iCloud contacts are accessed through the Contacts app on your phone, Mail through the Mail app, Reminders through the Reminders app, etc.
You can also access some of this data on icloud.com from a computer. You can't, however, access icloud.com from your phone.

Where is the iCloud icon? I have a new ipad and although in settings I have the icon and have set music, mail etc to be stored on the cloud I do not have the icon on my home page or on the safari tool bar

Where is the iCloud icon ? I have the iCloud settings set to on for music, mail etc but the icon is not on my safari tool bar nor is the icon present on my home screen

ITunes- Why won't half of my music library install? Why is my music corrupted? And where did all my songs in the cloud go?

Alright there are multiple aspects to this problem.
Back in February of 2013, I bought the album "Goodbye Lullaby (Deluxe Edition)" by Avril Lavigne. I have 12 albums that I have bought through iTunes throughout the years by her. I had an iPhone 4S and did not update to iOS 7 right away. Later in October I got the new iPhone 5S and already came pre-installed with iOS 7. Somehow, (and I don't know why or how to fix it) a bunch of my songs (again purchased through iTunes) in the cloud are either hidden or erased and I can't seem to download them. When I received my new phone, I downloaded all the songs that were in iCloud. However I noticed that a few were missing. Then a few weeks later I saw that a lot was missing. I had a total 1,497 songs in the cloud, and now it has been reduced to 701 songs. That's about half of the songs that I have spent from $.99-$1.29 on music through itunes since 2004.
Fast forward to November 5. Avril Lavigne (big fan) released her new album. I pre-ordered it back in Septemeber. Normally the day an album is released I go to the album and pressed the cloud with the down arrow. No problem. However when I went to download this album, all it said was that I purchased it- no cloud with arrow, no nothing. I figured that it was in the cloud so I check under the purchase category in the iTunes App on my iPhone 5S. Again, no luck. Somehow when I logged on to my MacBook it downloaded a copy of the record on the computer. (That's fine. As long as I have the music...)
Then another problem springed up. I saw that Goodbye Lullaby was no longer on my phone, however it was in my iTunes library. I tried removing all of my music off the phone. Then ANOTHER problem came up. I unchecked the box saying "Sync Music" on my phone, and pressed sync. Then for some reason it automatically checked Sync Music, and all the playlists on my computer. I did this process multiple times. I updated iTunes, I reinstalled it. Restarted the computer- Nothing. So not only half of my songs are gone from iCloud, my music that is on iTunes is NOT syncing into my phone. Plus I can't take the music off my phone without iTunes checking the Sync Music boxes again.
the 3rd (and last) problem I have is that the music that did install in the sync became corrupted. So when I went to play them, the Music app would skip over them and then delete them instantly. One full album I had just went in a loop and changed songs lightning fast and then when I exited the album, it was delete.
Please let me know if anyone else has any/all of these problems. I will call Apple to straighten all of this out- and I might have to schedule an appt. at the Genius Bar at the retail store (which is an hour away so if I can get this problem solved here or over the phone that would be great)
Thanks
Duncan.

one last thing: I'm also getting this problem here too:

If you're running Mac OS X, move the cursor to the very top of the computer's screen, click on Store, and choose Authorize this Computer.
If you're running Windows, press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

I think I've completely misunderstood how the Touch functions. I was under the impression that my iTunes music library, regardless of size and where acquired would be automatically synced to the Cloud for free? I s this not so?TIA

Have I misunderstood how the Touch works? I thought that I could transfer my completre iTunes music library, regardless of size and how acquired, to the Cloud at no charge. True?

What about it?
It is not part of this service.
You can pay for itunes match which will allow you store some non-itunes purchased music.

HT204053 I have one apple ID for purchases and then my mobile me ID where I use for email. So I have set my cloud with my mobile me name, while keeping my purchases the original name. Will my purchases be recognized as purchases when backup is finished.

Welcome to the Apple community.
So long as you are logged into the iTunes Store, using the correct ID and password (settings >store), then you will always have access to your apps, books, music, TV shows etc etc bought via the iTunes Store on that account.

I have subscribed to I Tunes Match on my computer where I've been syncing and backing up my I Phone. Can I access my music before all the artwork is uploaded from my computer?

Hi,
You will no longer be able to sync manually with match. I would suggest that you wait until match has competed its process on your computer and that you are told how many tracks are in the cloud.
If you activate match on your iOS device too soon, you may find that all your tracks are not there. Ps it is not just artwork that is being uploaded, it's music as well.

HT1689 i have a music album on my ipad that i cannot delete i have connected to my laptop where the album has been deleted but when i sync the ipad with the itunes library the unwanted album is still there and i am unable to delete it. any suggestions

I have a music album on my ipad that i cannot delege i have connected the ipad to my laptop where the album has been deleted from the music library but when i sync the ipad to the music i want the unwanted album still appears on the ipad any advice welcome thanks

Hi rosehooker,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Make sure you are following these steps to delete the music from both your iPad and computer:
On the iPad:
Before you delete, find out if you'll be able to download the song you deleted again (it depends on where you live). To delete a song:
Tap the Music app.
Tap the Songs category.
Swipe left to right over the song you want to delete.
Tap Delete.
On your computer:
Before you delete, find out if you'll be able to download the song you deleted again (it depends on where you live). To delete a song:
Launch iTunes.
From the Library pop-up menu, choose Music.
Click Songs in the navigation bar.
Click the song you want to delete.
Press the Delete key on your keyboard.
In iTunes 11, the album cover art will remain visible, but a cloud icon will appear on it to allow you to download the item again (in countries that support this).
Note: If you didn't purchase a song from the iTunes Store, you won't be able to download it again for free from iTunes in the Cloud. You might want to back it up somewhere on your computer.
You can find the steps above in this article:
How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store

HT204370 Once a movie has been purchased where can it be accessed on the cloud?

I bought a movie on iTunes, downloaded it, when I discovered it was using a lot of memory I deleted it, presuming it would transfer safely to iCloud. However, I cannot locate anything but music in my iCloud. How do I locate that movie in my iCloud?

Learn more about which content types are supported for iTunes in the Cloud by country, as well as where iTunes Match is available.
You should always maintain a backup copy.

Where are all the songs and whole albums i bought for i tunes? i have a new macbook but iTunes has none of my paid for music

Your purchases won't automatically show in your new Mac's iTunes library. If you go into iTunes > Preferences and on the Store tab tick the 'show iTunes in the cloud purchases' then what you can redownload should show in the Music part of your library with a cloud icon against them - click on the cloud to download them. Or click on your name towards the top right of iTunes and then click Purchased on the popup, and you can redownload them from there.
If you've moved countries since buying the music, or if the rights-holders have removed them from the store, then you won't be able to redownload them. In that case if you still have your old computer then you could copy them over from that (e.g. via an external drive : How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support or via home sharing), or copy them from your backup of your downloads/library and add them via File > Add Too Library

Hello pkoutouzakis,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
You can download your iTunes Store purchases free of charge again at any time. Any content that did not come from the iTunes store would have to be re imported from their original sources.

How/where do I access the Cloud? (Also, how can I reformat files?)

The Cloud appears to be working well for me, immediately replacing flawed or non-playing tracks/audio files/ tunes with perfect, matched files at 256 kbps. However, I've encountered two apparent "roadblocks":
1. How can I access the Cloud directly to see if music that is NOT appearing in my iTunes program, or in my computer's library, is in the Cloud? I have no doubt there are tunes stored in the Cloud that I'm unaware of. When I go to iCloud from my computer, I see categories for only the following: Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Notes, Reminders, Find My iPhone, and iWork. But I don't see any category/symblol/icon for iTunes. Where is the music/iTunes cloud, and how do I get there?
2. I'm having difficulty uploading some files to Apple's or Amazon's clouds because they have wrong, or no, compression. Formerly, I recall that under "Preferences" in iTunes, the user was offered a variety of different formats and compression rations: AAC, MP3, Lossless, WAV, AIFF, etc. In the most recent version of iTunes I'm not seeing any provision for such reformatting. Is it still possible to alter file compression within the iTunes program, or must I download an external program to change compression ratios of certain files?
Thanks for any enlightenment re: either of the above questions.
Cap

I think I'm on to the 2nd question--i.e. the conversion of files. It's a matter of clicking on "Import Settings" under the "General" category in iTunes "Preferences".
The first question (above) continues to trouble me. For example, there are a number of files in my iTunes program that show up as in the Cloud but are "shaded." When I delete these files, moreover, I'm not greeted by a spanking new version from the Cloud. They appear to have been deleted for good--unless there's some way to access the Cloud's contents.
Some of the files are extended, personal files, recorded from an FM broadcast, lasting around 60 minutes. So it makes sense that the iTunes Match function would not find corresponding files. However, they've been saved, and most of them are playable are playable from my iTunes program. The shaded ones are not playable--and when I deleted them, there was no replacement.

Where is the "download all" button for itunes music

So... trying to re download all of my purchased music from my itunes account onto my new iphone 6, however, when i go into itunes store then purchased, the bit where it should have "all music" is gone so i can't go into it and hit the "download all" button, i'm certainly not going to sit there like an idiot one by one pressing the cloud of the hundreds of songs i have on my purchased account. If there is a setting that is preventing it from showing or a different way i can simply and easily download all of my purchased from itunes would be FANTASTIC. Thank you.

not on my phone there isn't, but my sister and i both bought an iphone 6 yesterday and her iphone has the option, mine doesn't, that's why i assumed there was a setting somewhere that allowed it to show. Her phone you go to itunes ap> more> purchased> music> then you get to the bit where it has all of the music, at the top of her phone she has "recently purchased" and "all music" when you go into "all music" it has a download all button!!! with my phone, it has not got the "all music" it only has the "recently purchased" they are both brand new iphone 6 with no data yet on them. I'm confused as to why hers has the function and mine doesn't. There must be a setting somewhere but i've looked and looked and there's nothing. I literally have THOUSANDS of songs, this would take me forever to go into every album. Irony has it that my sisters only has about 300 songs and go figure hers is the one that can download all
