i connected my iphone to the computer to charge it and itunes backed it up with an old version of my ipod so I lost all my photographs. Is there any way I can get them back?
Seems that you can no longer hide them on your phone. Try doing so in iTunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919.

where would the pictures be stored in the computer ? Where should I look for them?
They would be wherever you put them.
They would only be on your computer if you imported them. You would have selected a program and/or location and imported them as you would with any digital camera. -
I accidentally deleted all of my vacation photos from photo stream on my iPad. Is there any way to recover these pictures back into my iPad?

Lots of iPad users think it is impossible to recover lost data from iPad, in fact , it is possible.
Method 1: Trash bin to recover the deleted photos
Restore from your iCloud backup, if you used iCloud to backup your phone, see iCloud: Backup and restore overview, or estore from a backup you made with iTunes on your mac.
Method 2: Restore from the PhotoStream synced to your other devices.
Do you have Photo Stream enabled? Then your iPad will have a sent all photos added to the camera roll to the photo stream, and other devices you sync with the Photo Stream may have downloaded the photos, see: iCloud:
Hope this helps.
If you make a backup previously, you still can recover your iPad photos from backup. -
My iPhone was stolen and I have lost all my photos as some were over 30 days old. Is there anyway I can get these back as they were on iCloud originally but i didn't put them onto my pc! :o( please can somebody help me get these back.
Unfortunately iCloud only stores photos for 30 days, to give all your devices a chance to download them. After this period they are deleted from Photo Stream and can not be retrieved.

I was retrieving email on my iphone and noticed my messages were disappearing one by one, until there was nothing left! When I accessed i-cloud on my laptop, I saw that it was EMPTY! All my messages, inboxes, sent mail, was ALL gone! My contacts are also gone in the webmail. I didn't do anythign different or make any changes! Is something happening with iCloud? HELP!
You can't download pictures from iCloud by logging into icloud.com. If you deleted pictures from camera roll AND photo stream, the only possibility is preforming a restore from an iCloud backup, assuming the backup has the pictures in it. (Many users have been unable to restore and get back their pictures.)
If the restore doesn't have all the pictures, then they are gone.
In the future, use photo stream to sync photos from an iPhone to a computer, then copy the photos on the computer from the photo stream album into a permanent album. Photo stream pics stay there only for 30 days, and only up to 1000 photos are stored. Don't use photo stream as a storage medium, it's only for copying photos from one device to another. Always copy (either via USB cable or photo stream) to a computer and then move to an album. -
Hi, I accidentally deleted photos from my photo stream, causing them to disappear from my camera roll aswell. I am desperate to get these photos back. Is there any way I can recover them? Thanks
Hi Am1121,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you have a backup of your iPhone on either iCloud or iTunes from the time when those photos were on the Camera Roll, you can restore from that backup and recover those photos. Please use the following article for information on restoring from backups.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD on a different computer using Home Sharing? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?
Yes, you can copy songs that you ripped from a CD to your Home Sharing computer.
Turn on Home Sharing first on both computers. To do that, go to File > Home Sharing > Turn on Home Sharing. Enter your Apple ID and password.
Now go to your computer that you want to copy the songs to and connect to your Home Share. You can do that by clicking on the popover button located at the left top corner right below the play control buttons. Click on it and scroll to the bottom until you see your Home Share and select it.
Go to Music in your Home Share. Select the songs that you want to copy in your Home Share and click Import at the bottom right corner. -
i was working on a project in iMovie (10.0.1) and iMovie just crashed. when i reopened it the project i was working on disappeared. in my list of projects it still says i have 3 projects but its only showing me 2. is there any way i can recover my project?? PLEASE HELP!!!
iMovie on your Mac has nothing to do with iCloud storage. Download and use Find Any File to search for your iMovie project. FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't, like invisible folders, packages and system folders. If there a file with your file name on it anywhere on the hard drive FAF will find it.
Do you have Time Machine enabled backing up to an external HD? This situation is exactly what TM is good at. It makes hourly backups so you can go back to find and restore the missing file. All HDs crash at some time or another and having a good backup strategy is the only protection against that. -
I have never been able to receive any updates. And cannot find cetain features like Content Aware, Adobe Watermarks etc...Is there any way I can add these and other features unavailable to me? Or do I have to upgrade the version I have? If so, how much would that be?
The only "content aware" feature in CS5 is the fill, so you are not missing anything with the updates because nothing more is there. And I honestly don't know what you mean by "Adobe watermarks" there is no such thing, but there is a series of scripts for such stuff.

My phone didn't come with the preset playlists. All my friends and my sister have them. Like, "top 25 in your library" "recently added" "recently played". Is there any way I can get these?
Those playlists are "Smart playlists".
I don't think that you can create them from the phone itself. I've only ever been able to create a smart playlist within iTunes and then syncing the phone. -
my mac book pro got stolen and i just purchased a new one is there any way i can recover my purchased songs and movies from i tunes. I have the same account name, password and everything
Yes. Update to iTunes 10.3.1
Then go to the iTunes Store and click Purchased "new" under Music Quick Links on the right side of the iTunes window.
You can re download your purchased content from the next window. -
I just upgraded my MacBook from OS X 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion so that I could stream from my other devices (iPhone and iPad) to my MacBook. After making it through the upgrade process, I realized that I used the wrong email address for my iCloud username when starting up on the MacBook. My iPhone, iPad, and iTunes are under my Hotmail email address and I accidently used my Gmail email address for the MacBook. Is there any way I can merge these two icloud accounts together? I tried changing my account information to add the other email address, but wasn't allowed because another account was using the name (duh). If I can't merge them, how could I change the MacBook from the Gmail address to the Hotmail address so that all my devices are on the same icloud account? It'd be nice if I could keep the free 5GB of storage that comes with my purchase of the software, but I'd rather lose the storage than not be able to stream.
To change accounts on your Mac, go to System Preferences, sign out of the current account, then sign into the new account. When you sign out of the current account it will delete synced data from your Mac. Assuming your data (such as contacts, calendars, etc.) is in the other iCloud account, it will be synced to your Mac when you sign into this account.

I had files stored on a hard drive that were not on my Mac. I used the hard drive for my first Time Machine back up, but it was not enough hard drive space to finish. Now those stored files are gone. Is there any way I can recover them? No, they were not part of previous Time Machine backups, and I have checked both the hard drive the documents were lost on and the new one that I now use for backups. Any suggestions would be helpful, as the lost files are old pictures that are gone forever. :[ Thanks!
1. Yes, if both drives are formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
2. Reformat the drives if needed, open the Time Machine pane of System Preferences, and remove the drive with the pictures from the list of items set to be excluded.

My laptop computer was stolen six months ago. I had over 100 purchases from itunes on that laptop. I recently got a new laptop. Is there any way I can recover my purchases from itunes on to my new laptop?
I would ask here
https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes
when you buy stuff it's connected to the appleID not the computer
nor the appletv which have no storage so there is no option to get it from the atv
