After upgrading to a new hard drive, I can't drag songs to my ipod

I can only play them on my computer. I get an error message "itunes could not copy...because an unknown error occurred (-50)
Any clue what to do?
Just to complicate matters further, I'm going to move all my data back to the first hard drive next week (long story)

After upgrading to a new hard drive
How did you get everything onto the new hard drive?
I'm going to move all my data back to the first hard drive
So you deleted it from the original hard drive?
How do you plan to get it back to the original?

If you are trying to recover photo stream photos, they are only held in iCloud for 30 days. All you would be able ro recover is photo stream photos from the last 30 days.
If you have an iOS device that still has the photo stream photos one it, you can save them to the camera roll by opening the my photo stream album, tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll. Once in the camera roll, they can be imported to iPhoto on your Mac as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t use iCloud. There's an iCloud Support Community where everybody uses iCloud. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. https://discussions.apple.com/community/icloud/icloud_on_my_mac

HT203167 lost my hard drive how can i get songs from ipod back to new computer

I lost my hard drive and want to get my music back on my new computer. How can I get songs from my ipod to my computer? I am afraid to sync it and losing what is on my ipod. Any help would be appreciated.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from your ipod: File>Transfer Purchases

I have reached full memory capacity on my 500GB Time Capsule. I am considering purchasing a 2TB Time Capsule. Do I need to resave all existing data on the new hard drive or can I start afresh? Or can I link both time capsules to operate independantly?

Hi,
I have reached full memory capacity on my 500GB Time Capsule. I am considering purchasing a 2TB Time Capsule.
a) Do I need to resave all existing data on the new hard drive or can I start afresh?
b) Or can I link both time capsules to operate independantly?
Thanks,
Paul

You may not need to buy a new Time Capsule.
You can connect a USB drive to the Time Capsule, and use it in addition to the TC's internal HD. You may need a powered USB hub as well.
Exactly what is on your TC? If it's only Time Machine backups, you may not need to do anything -- Time Machine will delete the oldest backup(s) automatically when it needs room for new ones. But if you have more than about 250 GB on your internal HD, that 500 GB may not be large enough to keep backups long enough.
If you have other data on the TC's internal HD, besides your backups, you could back up to the external HD and use the internal for the other data, or vice-versa. But TM backups cannot "span" two drives, and you shouldn't mix backups and other data on the TC's internal HD.

What does "the registration won't let me" mean? If the serial number is rejected, contact support by web chat. for anything else you need to provide proper technical information and actually explain your issue.

Upgrade itunes install new hard drive

Hi there.
Long long time iTunes user here. A while back I switched off automatic upgrades and have been sitting on version 9.1.1.12 for some time. I've been meaning to update it ... and now I'd like to do that and more: upgrade my C hard drive and convert to 64 bit Windows 7 (currently on 32bit Win7).
As such, my objective is to add the new C hard drive, install Windows 7 64 bit, then download & install iTunes 10.6.1 while keeping my library intact (playlists, ratings, play counts, etc).
I understand the difference between the Media folder (where the songs are) and the Music folder (where the library is). Currently my Media folder is on a separate hard drive (G-Drive) while the Music folder is on the C-Drive. My choices are to continue using the G-Drive as the Media folder location, or I can move all songs over to a network share located on Windows Home Server (where the music folder can be backed up). I understand how to change the iTunes Media folder location in the advanced menu, and how to select "Consolidate Library" to complete the copying process.
Once I select which option is best for the Media folder, here's what I am planning to do:
1. Copy of the iTunes Music folder and all subfolders (C:\Users\Master\Music\iTunes) onto a zip drive or network share
2. Install the new hard drive
3. Install Windows 7 64 bit
4. Install iTunes 10.6.1.
5. Replace the iTunes Music folder with the copy I made
6. Change the Media folder to the correct location (either G-Drive or network share on WHS)
Does that sound correct?
Once I install iTunes, should I replace the iTunes Music folder with the copy I made *before* I actually start (open and run) iTunes?
Once I start iTunes, can I simply change the default Media folder location so that it's pointed to the current location of the songs (either G-Drive or network share on WHS)?
Lastly, is it better (less complex, lower risk, etc) to simply keep my Media folder on the G-Drive, or does it matter?
Thanks a million for your guidance ... usually I try to figure everything out myself and not ask for help, but after having dealt with broken links in the past I want to be sure I don't mess up the library/media structure (not to mention lose playlists and ratings). Again, a big THANK YOU.

Can anyone help? Not sure who else to ask. Really appreciate it.

Keyboard and Touch-Pad Not Working After Having to Install New Hard Drive

I had to install a new hard drive in my HP Pavillion DV9700t that has Vista Home Premium 64-bit. After going through the recovery process with backup disk the built in keyboard and touch-pad do not work. During the installation, an error message came up saying something along the lines of "the drivers are not supported by this verison of windows because they are unsigned." The drivers that had that error were "hpqkbfiltr keyboard filter driver," "HP remote control HID Device," and "hpqkdfilter driver." I tried to update the drivers for the keyboard from the hp website, but the keyboard and touch-pad still do not work.
My question is, where do I find the digitally signed drivers for the keyboard and touch-pad that Vista won't flag and disable?
Help please!

Sparkles,
Thanks for the suggestions.
When dealing with MS Fix It, I was choosing run. Upon further investigation on that site, there really isn't a scan that applies to my issue anyways I tried the .NET Framework repair tool, and that seemed to work. It told me to try re-running what I was having issues with, so I tried running the Windows PowerShell again, but again was faced with the following message "windows update standalone installer encountered an error: 0xc8000247." I went back to the .NET screen and hit "Next" because it didn't work, and that responded by saying they were going to submit logs to Microsoft. I won't hold my breath on that one.
I'm to the point where I honestly don't care anymore. I have no idea what to do, because doing a clean install with the discs HP sent me isn't going to help because they are just recovery discs, and not an actual Windows disk. This is the second hard drive I have had to put into my laptop and use those recovery disks on in the last 3-years. The built-in keyboard hasn't worked during that time frame on either hard drive. I don't think the recovery disks I was sent install properly. Not sure where to go from here. I spent way too much money on this laptop years ago having it custom built to handle all of my drafting programs, so I don't want to just kick it to the curb. I was looking into the possibility of just replacing it, but I cannot stand the Windows 8 interface.
I guess I should have fixed the issue with the keyboard on this hard drive before loading all of my programs. Between the recovery disk install, formatting of the hard drive, and installing all of my programs it took well over 12 hours. Not really looking forward ot that again Then there's shockwave and flash and all of the other goodies that my recovery disks won't restore anyways.
Sorry if this seems like a negative post, but I'm just tired of trying to no avail. Maybe I should just take it somewhere to get it looked at, but I can't see them being successful if the recovery disks won't help anyways.
Thanks for you help,
MadBuch

How can I re-install CS2 upgrade on a new hard drive without serial no. of previous Photoshop 5?

A new hard drive has been installed on my G4 Mac with OS10.4. I am trying to re-install CS2 Premium on the new hard drive but I no longer have the serial number of my previous Photoshop 5. I need to enter this as the CS2 was an upgrade. I have spoken to Adobe technical support but they no longer support CS2 so are not able to help. They recommended that I try the Adbe Forum. All my Adobe products have been bought legitimately. I know people manage to use pirated Adobe software so there must be some way for me to activate a legally bought product.

Michael
Thank you for your email and suggestion.
I have tried that and the only product listed is my CS5 Design Premium (which was an upgrade), none of my previous Adobe products are listed.
I am now looking to see if I can buy an old version of Photoshop that will work on a Power PC G4 Mac with OS 10.4.
I only need Photoshop on that Mac to paint from, not the rest of the Suite.
It is infuriating that I already have a legitimately bought Adobe product (as all mine have been) but I am unable to use it.
Regards
Trevor

What are the steps to follow after you install a new Hard Drive on a 17in Macbook Pro mid 2009

I plan on installing a larger Hard Drive..the physical part is simple..but what are the steps after you close it up and hit the power button? Is there softwre on the mother board that will start the unit running??

A new Hard drive will not be Mac-formatted, so you will have to do that first. A copy of Disk Utility to do the job is also on the 10.6 Installer/Utilities DVD.
Boot to the installer DVD, but do not Install. Answer only the "what language" question, and wait a quarter minute for the menuBar to be drawn. Choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu that appears.
Select the Hardware_name of the new Drive. Partition, one partition, ( Options ), GUID partition table. Name the partition: MacIntosh HD and choose Format: Mac OS X Extended (journaled). It will complete in a minute or two, as it only rewrite the Directory area.
If you wish to shake out your drive, you can erase it and Security Erase, Zero all data, one pass. But this takes HOURS.

After replace new hard drive, How can I restore the system to factory default ?

Normally, I can just press and hold down 0 but I can no longer using this function. Is it possible that I can use it again on the new hard drive ?
If I cannot use this, how can I install the license windows?

Order the recovery discs.
Order Toshiba Recovery Media
A tip: You're more likely to get a response in this forum when you include the complete model designation of your computer in your message.

Transferring from time machine onto my mac after its had a new hard drive installed.

I have a new hard drive in my iMac, using Mavericks 10.9.5.
I would like to restore from Time Machine, all my info.
The Apple video "Time Machine Basics" talks about "migrating to a new mac" and this is straightforward, but I already have logged into my new mac! I don't have the option to migrate.
How do I go back into Time Capsule for the first time?
If I just open Time Machine and start backing up my "empty new hard drive" onto the Time Capsule which contains the saved info from before, will I then be able to then just go back to the previous saved dates? Does that make sense?

Thank you, that makes sense, however, I've only just realised that I'm logged onto the new Hard Drive as "Test".
When I plugged it in, and turned it on, it just opened up like that, without me needing to log in as 'me' yet?
Is this ok, and the best option to do as you suggest?

Installed New Hard Drive, Now Can't Install Snow Leopard

Hi All,
Had to install a new hard drive in my system (15" MacBook Pro Early 2010 Model), so I followed the instructions to put in the drive and that worked just fine. Now I need to reinstall Snow Leopard, which isn't working. Here's what I've tried...
1) Boot from the install disc by holding down the "C" key when powering on the system. I hear the drive spin for a little bit, but then it stops spinning and nothing else happens...I just get the Apple logo.
2) Made a bootable USB drive using directions found online. Plugged that bad boy in, held the "Option" key down, and powered on. Got the option to choose the drive as my boot drive. Selected that, and nothing happens. Just get the Apple logo again.
Any thoughts on what I need to do next? Never experienced such a thing.
Appreciate the help.

Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
7. After formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Install OS X.
