All iOS users know about iCloud. It is one of the best ways to back up all your data online. Whether it be pictures or data files or other media, you can use iCloud to ensure that all of it remains safe even if your device malfunctions, which serves the purpose of backing up your settings and data, including your music. However, it can only backup music purchased from iTunes.
Step 1: Go to "Settings" from your the homescreen of your iPhone.
Step 2: Tap on "iCloud" option to continue the process.
Step 3: Enable the "iCloud Backup" button from the Backup screen.
Step 4: Click on "Back Up Now".
Seems pretty easy? However, there are several problems you can't ignore within iCloud:
- Like iTunes, iCloud only deals with music purchased from iTunes, though you can download it later for free only if it is still available.
