All my music is gone in itunes in pc and icloud

[LEOMODE]

So ive uploaded every music i have in my macbook's itunes perfectly and i could see it on my iphone and my other mac pro.

But since i had no storage left in my macbook, ive decided to delete all my music in itunes since i thought that i will no longer require them physically in my macbook as i can always re download them.

When i tried to delete it prompted me if i should delete the songs in icloud as well and i said no and just deleted songs in itunes.

However all of a sudden now i cannot see the songs in iphone anymore and its all gone. Plus since i deleted the songs even in trash can permanently i am now shocked as ive just lost all my songs in one click.

I thought that all my songs were in the icloud. Whats up with this now? Where are my songs in icloud? Or does this mean i always need a physical computer to store my physical songs still acting as a home server?

Since i was on the way to work and realized all my songs were gone in iphone, i havent checked my other mac pro yet to see if i have my songs still since i downloaded them all after enabling the itunes match, im afraid they are gone just like the iphone.

Please enlighten me on this as im really frustrated.

Restore them from your backup, try again.

Unless you have a different backup then the Time Machine wold be the one to try. I would try turning off iTunes match and turning it back on to see if things show up again in iTunes match.

One last ditch effort would to contact iTunes support and see what they can do if anything.
