Lost songs

I have never knowingly moved my songs off the iMac into the iCloud. There are now large number of songs I cannot find. How can I restore them to the IMac?

iPod classic, Windows 7

Relinking Greyed-Out Songs on the Desktop Application I have a few songs the I ripped myself and added to my music library years ago that—after upgrading to a new computer—are greyed out. The songs' info says that they are matched and located in the cloud. I have backup copies on my computer, but I can't figure out how to relink the songs to the files.

My music is gone I was cleaning a MacBook but couldn’t reformat because I didn’t want to lose installed software and certain files had to stay on there. I turned off iCloud but noticed my iTunes remained. I didn’t want to leave my songs on the laptop so I removed all the music from iTunes. Although I wasn’t on iCloud this removed the songs from all of my iTunes everywhere. Is there a way to recover my songs? That’s a lot of money down the tubes if I can’t. Why does Mac make it that hard to clean up a laptop? there a way to recover my music?

Misplaced music files Hi. A few years back, I downloaded all my CDs (about 300 of them) onto my Windows based computer. Since that time I was able to access them on my iPhone and iPad, but no longer. I now have a MacBook Pro. The only place I can now find these files are in iMovie. Where is iMovie finding these music files. I don't see them in iCloud. Could I have another iCloud account that I am not aware of or know how to access? How do I get them back into my music app? Any insight you have regarding this would be much appreciated.
