How can I upgrade the library?

Ok, so I have not been able to upgrade my A2 library to A3 despite a few attempts. All due to the "Insufficient space" issue. It keeps running out of HD space and freezes.
Now I have access to a vault backup of my library from just before I installed A3. Is there anyway to upgrade this library? I keep seeing references here to people saying that if you have a vault then you can do something with it.
Or alternatively, is there anyway to export projects, so I can then import them one at a time into A3, from the original library even though I now only have A3 installed? I had A2 then brought the upgrade. There is no trace of A2 left on my system.
All my images are in a managed library if it makes a difference.
Thanks all.

  • I have the computer with my itunes library on it but no longer have access to the email account the library was set up with. How can I transfer the library to a new appleid/email?

    I have the computer that holds my itunes library. However, I no longer have access to the email account (and therefore apple account) it was set up with so can't sync/update etc. How can I transfer the library to my new apple id? Any help gratefully received as searched the internet but can't find the answer!
    Have ipod touch 4th gen, ipod touch 5th gen and ipod nano 7th gen all to sync to library.

    Hi Stillme,
    You cannot transfer purchases from one Apple ID to another. You need to go into the old Apple ID and change it to the new email address instead of using a new Apple ID altogether.
    Apple - My Apple ID
    If you can't remember the password to the old ID, then click on Reset your Password, and answer the Security Questions. If you can't remember the Security Questions, contact iTunes Support and have them reset:
    APPLE ID SECURITY CONTACT NUMBERS
    Once you get into your old account, Edit the Apple ID to your new email address. Before you will be able to do that you are going to have to change the email address on the new Apple ID to something else.
    Cheers,

    I have a Mac OS X 10.5.8.  How can I upgrade the operating system so I can get i Life 11?

    You will need Snow Leopard which is available as a retail disk for $29 from the Apple store or online resellers. Make sure your Mac meets the system requirements; 1 GB RAM is the absolute minimum - 2 GB would be better.

    If they are the grey discs which came with the iMac, then they will be machine specific and will not work on the MBP anyway. You will need to purchase a retail copy of Snow Leopard from the Apple Store for about $29 and upgrade from that. I presume your MBP is Intel and not G4.

  • When upgrade 2004.2B to 2007B,how can I upgrade the MS-sql2000? ....

    we are about to upgrade our 2004.2B to 2007,and come to  the problem "how can we upgarde the ms-sql2000 to sql2005?"
    we bought the sql2000 together whit the sap business one 7.1 suit (Mrcorsoft call it ISV), my question are:
    1.can I upgrade to sql2005 for free?
    2.If it's not for free,whether I buy the new database soft(sql2005)  or pay the upgrade charge ?
    3.what sap will do?
    thanks
    regards,
    wren

    Hi Wren,
    You can check to see if SQL 2000 was sold via SAP when you sold SBO 2004 to your customer. Check the SAP Portal
    If SQL was part of the sale and the customer has paid their annual maintenance on SQL then they should be able to upgrade their SQL to 2005.
    If the customer did not buy their SQL from SAP, they will need to pay for SQL. I suggest that you find out from your VAR what the current prices are (before increase in Jan 2010) and buy the licenses from SAP, they are cheaper provided the customer only uses SBO on their SQL server.

  • How can i extend the library of software instruments in logic?

    Hello!
    I am working with logic express 8 and would like to assign software instruments such as clarinet and celli to the midi-files of my keyboard. Yesterday I couldn't find woodwind instruments in the library of logic so I started to download mainstage 2 - which seemed to extend the library of logic. But unfortunately some software instruments (for example cello...) disappeared and instead of extending my library in logic mainstage made it smaller... Can anybody help? And can someone tell my where do I get a clarinet and a cello? Thanks for your answers!
    Yours Judith.
    P.S.: I thought about maybe I have to upgrade my version of logic express to logic studio? How can I do this and do I have to pay the full prize of logic studio then? Sorry for my nescience! :-)

    Hi..
    Best place to get feedback for Logic Pro is the Logic Pro community.
    Post your topic here.
    That way you will receive feedback directly from LP users. This forum is for the most part, troubleshooting the App Store.

  • MY LAPTOP CRASHED BUT MY LIBRARY IS ON MY HOME PC HOW CAN I GET THE LIBRARY BACK TO MY LAPTOP WITHOUT ERASING THE SONGS I REPURCHASED

    HOW CAN I MOVE LIBRARY FROM ONE PC TO MY LAPTOP WITHOUT ERASING REPURCHASED SONGS ON MY LAPTOP

    I had the similar problem last night and found a solution (although it takes more than a few clicks).  Highlight all the album tracks in itunes on the pc and right click "get info". Check the artwork box in this window.  I found that the now playing art was showing up in the itunes window, but on songs that were missing artwork showed nothing in the get info box.  When I replaced the artwork by using the artwork command, or manually adding it into the "get info" window.  It was annoying but my iphone updated every album.

  • I just purchased a IMac Power PC G4 which has the Tiger 10.4.11 OS. I would like to upgrade to Lion OS. How can I upgrade the OS?

    I just purchased a Power Mac PC G4. The system has OS Tiger 10.4.11. I would like to upgrade it to Lion.
    How can I do It?
    Thank You
    Hubert

    PPC (PowerPC) is the processor architecture of all G3, G4 and G5 Power Mac computers.
    PPC Macs cannot run any OS greater than Leopard, 10.5.8 because after that, Apple quit developing for PPC processors and limited support for the Intel processor line only.
    As for upgrade to Leopard, Yes, if your machine meets the minimum requirements of 867 MHz or faster processor, 512 MB or greater of RAM and has a DVD reader it can have Leopard installed.
    To install Leopard, one must first purchase a RETAIL (black with X on it) disc.
    After install of 10.5, 10.5.1,10.5.4 or 10.5.6 retail version, free updates to 10.5.8 are available from Apple.
    Check eBay for discs:
    http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=mac+os+x+leopard+retail+10.5
    If your machine is slower than 867 MHz, Google "Unsupported Leopard Installation".
    Tiger is lthe best choice for slower PPC Macs.

  • How can you upgrade the Oracle's db java version?

    Hi - Is there away to upgrade the database's java version? We are on UNIX with Oracle 8.1.6. I would like to upgrade it to Java 1.4, if possible. As far as I know, we do not currently use java for anything. We like to use java stored procedures.
    Thanks

    Is it possible (and if so, how) to determine the version of Java used to compile a class file?
    I've recently had to install both JDK 1.5 and JDK 1.4 on my system, and although I've got my paths set, etc.
    I'd like to check my class files after compiling so I can rest assured that they were compiled with the appropriate version.
    Can this be done? How?
    Thanks.The answer is yes and no. You can check the VM compability/compliance version of the compiled class. But e.g a JDK 1.5 compiler can compile classes that are compatible with a 1.4 VM (but that doesn't mean that it is guaranteed to execute on that VM without any errors)

  • How can I clear the library so I can reupload all of my music?

    I have transferred all of my music from my hard drive to an external hard drive, and I want to clear out my music library so I can start fresh.  All of the music that is in the library has the exclamation point saying that iTunes cannot locate.  Instead of having to go through and manually find all of my songs I thought it would be easier to start from scratch.  Any ideas on how to do that?

    Hi cboling!
    Depending on how you want to go about doing this, I have a couple of articles for you. If you want to be able to keep your library of music files on your external hard drive and access them through iTunes on your computer from that location, then you will want to take a look at this article, about keeping your iTunes Media folder on your external hard drive:
    iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1449
    However, if you want to move your iTunes folder back onto your internal hard drive and use iTunes as you were before, you will want to reference this article:
    iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1751
    Specifically, you will want to reference the section about "Restoring your iTunes Library backup," which can be found here:
    Restoring your iTunes Library backup
    When you need to restore your backed up iTunes Library from your external hard drive to your computer, follow these steps:
    Quit iTunes.
    Locate your external hard drive.
    Mac: On the Desktop or Finder sidebar.
    Windows: In My Computer
    Drag the iTunes folder (backed up earlier) from your external hard drive to whatever location you desire on your internal hard drive. It is recommended that you choose the default location for the iTunes folder, which is:
    Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\
    Windows Vista: \Users\username\My Music\
    Windows 7 or 8: \Users\username\Music\
    Open iTunes while holding down the Option key (Mac) or Shift key (Windows).
    In the resulting dialog, click the Choose Library button.
    Select the iTunes folder you just moved to the internal hard drive.
    Click Choose (Mac OS X) or Open (Windows) and then choose the iTunes Library file inside .
    After following these steps, iTunes will open and your iTunes Library will be restored.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,

  • Help!!!my system edition is mac os x10.5.8,and how can i upgrade the system to 10.6,except buy the apple CD?

    how can i found a master to slove my question?i need your help,my dear friend.my system edition is mac os x10.5.8,but i want to upgrade it to 10.6,and i don't konw how to do it.i need your help.my friend.

    You can upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6 with no problems. Any program that runs under 10.5 will run under10.6. You might have to upgrade some drivers for printers, etc.... And you will have to install Rosetta if you have any Power PC applications http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/snow_leopard_installing_rosetta/   I recently upgraded an older MacBook (model 1,1) straight from 10.4 to 10.6.
    To upgrade your iLife and iWork. If you only want iPhoto or other single apps from iLife '11 you can get them from the App Store after you've upgraded to 10.6.6. iPhoto, iMovie or Garage Band for $15 each and Pages, Keynote or Numbers from iWork '09 for $20 each.
    You can order a Snow Leopard 10.6 install disk for $29 as long as you have at least1gb of RAM and 5gb of free space on your hard drive. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
    Once you are at 10.6.8 you can buy Lion for $29 from the App Store if you have at least a model 2,1 MacBook. Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly. Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
    Before Mac switched to Intel processors they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

  • How can I redirect the library to look at another drive

    I have an mp3 collection which has outgrown my hard drive. It is in a folder on the desktop with subfolders (representing albums) which contain the mp3s. My modus operandi is to drag and drop album folders into the playlist window which creates a playlist. I don't import them, per se, so they don't end up in ~/Music/ITunes. I have a gozillion playlists as a result. I bought a new behemoth drive and have copied the music collection to it but I don't relish the idea of rebuilding the playlists by hand. I tried exporting the Library song list as text and editing it so all entries have the new drive listed instead of the old drive, and then reading that file in using an applescript that was designed to repair corrupted libraries. It went through the motions but didn't change anything. (Seemed like a good hack) Anybody have any ideas on how to do this?
    G4 tower & G5 tower   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I just moved my library over and then created an alias in place of the library. My library is the ~/Music/iTunes type, I don't know if it would work for you, but it could.
    What is this AppleScript? If you check back in the forum you'll see I have a thread about my library being corrupted. Although it appears to be the files, I wouldn't mind trying a library maintenance tool.

  • How can I restore the library & files that were previously on my Nano?

    Here's what happened... I hooked the Nano up to my computer at work to listen to it & charge it, but could not click on any of the music. Somehow I ended up with a prompt to "update the library" with a "yes" or "no" choice. I thought updating the library meant that the files on my Nano would create a list on the work computer's empty library so that I could play the files from my Nano. I did not expect it to transfer any files!!!! There was NO WARNING THAT IT WOULD ERASE INFORMATION!!!!! What then happened was horrible. The empty library on my work computer overwrote my Nano!!!!!! So now I have lost all of my files that I was planning to listen to on my flight to Spain tomorrow. I have been searching desperately to try to restore the files on my Nano, but have not been able to find an answer. I was planning to learn Spanish from the files on my Nano during my flight there! Now the Nano has wasted the money I spent on the Spanish CD's, the Nano and the ridiculously expensive & numerous separate accessories! This incident has really made me hate the Nano (which was given to me as a Christmas present). It has caused me nothing but pain & expense in buying junk for it and now trying to recover files without any good information on the Apple website! Why????? I thought Apple was user friendly before this Nano!

    I'm sorry that you didn't read the manuals but that's the way it works:
    Copying songs from your iPod to your computer
    "The iTunes library on your computer holds all the songs you've encoded from your CD collection or purchased from the iTunes Music Store. With default settings, iTunes automatically copies the songs in your library to your iPod. When you use your iPod as a hard disk, you can't see the songs iTunes copies to your iPod in the Finder or My Computer. This is normal. Using the Finder or My Computer, you can't copy these song files from your iPod back to iTunes or to any other computer. The synchronization between your iPod and your computer is always one way: from iTunes to iPod.
    If you've erased the music library on your computer, there's no way to use the Finder or My Computer to copy the songs from your iPod to reconstitute the library on your computer. One solution is to encode the songs from your CD collection again, then sync your new library with iPod. If you purchased songs from the iTunes Music Store and didn't back them up, there's no way to download them again. You'll have to buy new copies of the songs."
