All my imported CD's are missing

Have you used Windows Explorer to look in the Music folder on your computer where one would expect to find the files for all your CD music? The usual path is:

• for single-artist albums: Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\<artist name>\<album title>\<song filename>
• for compilation albums (that is, various artist albums): Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Compilations\<album title>\<song filename>

This assumes that you copied the music to your computer's internal drive. If you copied it to an external drive, that drive must be connected to your computer, with the same drive letter as it had when you added music to it - and the drive must be ready to read before you start iTunes.

In addition, did you have a look at the article I linked to? Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrad… - Apple Community. I suspect that turingtest2 spent a great deal of time writing that article and it has been upvoted 77 times, which means that it has been of use to at least those 77 people.

There is no music listed in the library.

I assume that you mean none of the missing songs are listed either with, or without an exclamation mark.

What I am beginning to believe is Microsoft pushed everything to the cloud. I was not sure that was allowed but Apple. But this is not the first time I've had Apple do things like this.

I doubt it.

As far as I know, Microsoft and Apple do not collaborate on this and you would have to opt in to Apple's cloud service. I don't use the cloud, but as far as know, even if you did, your files would still be on your computer.

Is this something new with Apple?

I doubt it. I can't think of any reason why Apple would want to delete your music.

• Is the music still listed in your iTunes Library or not:

1. 1. if the music is not listed, have a look at the following tip from fellow user turingtest2: Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrad… - Apple Community
   2. if the music is listed, but will not play, do the songs have exclamation marks put to the left of the title after trying to play them? In this case the most likely explanation is that the files for each song are no longer where they were when you told iTunes to list them. Have you moved, renamed or deleted the files for these songs since importing them to your iTunes Library?
