Q: Transfering songs i have downloaded to icloud or to my iphone

I have tried transfering songs that we have put in itunes to icloud to go onto my iphone, The ones that I didn't purchase through itunes comes up with a cloud with a line through it.  I have read previous notes and checked that it is set to aac encoder but it comes up with an error stating that it couldn't be found. I am not very computer savy so if you have a solution could you please put in the dummy terms for me. thanks.

    You're welcome.  Once you've finished the remaining steps and have turned on iTunes Match again, you music should be finally be available on your phone via iTunes Match.  You do have to download the songs from iCloud to get them on your phone, also be aware that as you play songs it streams the songs to your phone but also downloads them to your phone at the same time.  If you aren't careful you may end up inadvertently downloading many songs to your phone when you thought you were just listening to them.  You can always delete them by swiping across the song title and tapping the Delete key.  This will remove the song from your phone but you can always play and redownload it by tapping the download icon again.
