Introduction
It’s easy to backup music from your iPhone to iTunes on your computer. You can do this using a USB cable or Wi-Fi.
Why you should backup your music
Your music library is likely one of your most prized possessions. It contains all of your favorite artists, songs, and albums that you have collected over the years. Losing this music would be a tragedy.
There are many ways to backup your music. You can use iCloud, iTunes Match, or iTunes itself. Each has its own pros and cons, but ultimately it is up to you to decide which method is best for you.
iCloud is a cloud storage service from Apple. It gives you 5 GB of storage for free, but you can upgrade to 50 GB for $0.99/month or 200 GB for $3.99/month. iCloud is convenient because it wirelessly backs up your music (and other data) to Apple’s servers. However, it is not without its drawbacks. First, iCloud only works with iOS devices and Macs running OS X Yosemite or later. Second, if you have a lot of music, the storage limits can quickly become an issue.
iTunes Match is a subscription service from Apple that costs $24.99/year. It scans your music library and matches the songs with ones in the iTunes Store (up to 25,000). It then makes those songs available to download on any of your devices (up to 10). iTunes Match has no storage limit, but it does require that you have an active iTunes Store account.”
How to backup your music from iPhone to iTunes
Assuming you have iTunes installed on your computer, follow these steps to backup your music from your iPhone to your computer:
1. Connect your iPhone to your computer using a USB cable.
2. Open iTunes and select your device.
3. Click on the “Music” tab and then check the “Sync Music” box.
4. Select the music you want to sync and click the “Sync” button.
What to do if your music is already backed up on iTunes
If your music is already backed up on iTunes, you can simply connect your iPhone to your computer and sync your music library. This will copy any new songs or playlists that you’ve added to your iPhone onto your computer.
How to restore your music from a backup
It’s a good idea to always have a backup of your music library, in case you lose any files or need to restore your device. You can use iCloud or iTunes to make a backup of your music.
iCloud backups are wirelessly stored in the cloud, so you can access them from any internet-connected device. If you prefer, you can also use iTunes to create backups on your computer. These backups are stored locally on your computer, so you’ll need to connect your device to your computer to restore from an iTunes backup.
How to delete a backup
If you no longer need or want a particular backup, you can delete it. Just remember that this will permanently remove the backup and any data it contains from your computer. To delete a backup:
1. Open iTunes and go to the Preferences menu.
2. Select the Devices tab and find the backup you want to delete in the list of backups.
3. Select the backup and click the Delete button.
4. Confirm that you want to delete the selected backup by clicking Yes in the pop-up window.

There are a few ways to back up your music from your iPhone to iTunes. The most common way is to use iCloud, but you can also use iTunes Match or iTunes on your computer.
If you use iCloud, all of your music will be backed up automatically as long as you have an internet connection. If you want to back up your music manually, or if you want to make sure that all of your music is backed up, you can use iTunes Match. iTunes Match is a subscription service that gives you access to all of your music in the cloud, including music that you’ve purchased from the iTunes Store, ripped from CDs, or uploaded from other sources.
You can also back up your music manually by connecting your iPhone to your computer and using iTunes to transfer the files. This method is slower than using iCloud or iTunes Match, but it’s a good option if you don’t want to pay for a subscription or if you have a large collection of music.
