iTunes in the Cloud

If you only have to access music tracks that you've purchased from the iTunes music store, you can access those files on your device without synchronizing with a computer.

To do this, open the Settings app from your device's home screen. Select the iTunes & App Store section on the left. On the right side, turn on the Music switch under the Show All section. This will display songs in your Music library that are not actually stored on your device.

These songs are streamed from iCloud when they are played. This requires an Internet connection for playback and is not recommended for live use. To download songs to your device, find them in the Music app on your device and then tap on the cloud download icon.

Note: iTunes in the Cloud can only display music that was purchased through the iTunes Music Store. To access any music track on your computer in the same manner, you will need to use iTunes Music Match. This will allow any track in your iTunes library to be synchronized with all of your devices.
