  • My hard drive crashed, and I got a new one. How do I get my contacts and calendar from my Iphone back into outlook?, my hard drive crashed, and I got a new one. How do I get my contacts and calendar from my Iphone back into outlook?

    My hard drive crashed. I have all my contacts and calendar in my IPhone. I now have a new hard drive and am trying to get my contacts and calendar into the reinstalled outlook on my desktop but can't sync. Suggestions? Thanks

    Well, let's hope that nothing was jiggled out of place when you were installing the new hard drive. Your optical drive may just be out of alignment or the disc you have is "dirty." Get a lint-free cloth and some rubbing alcohol, then clean the disc as thoroughly as you can starting from the center and working outward in a concentric circlular motion. See if that helps. In particular clean the inner portion well.
    If this does not help, then you have a problem. You have opened the computer yourself. That action voids all support from Apple. If you take the computer in for service the store may refuse to service the computer. This is not related to your now expired warranty.

    If you mean your content then have you copied it onto your new computer from your backup and added it to its iTunes via File > Add To Library ? If you haven't got a backup then if you have any of your purchases on your iPod then you should be able to copy them to your new computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases, or you might be able to re-download some/all of your previous purchases (what content types you can re-download depend upon which country that you are in and whether it's still in the store) : re-downloading.

    Hi curliejo, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    In your situation I would recommend the steps in the following article for troubleshooting iTunes. It may be necessary to completely remove and reinstall iTunes in this situation. Be sure to remove all of the components with iTunes in the correct order as outlined in the article before installing fresh.

  • My hard drive crashed and I want to reinstall my personal itunes on another computer but I need to deauthorize my the original computer and I don't know how to reinstall.  Can someone help me please?

    My hard drive crashed and I restored my computer with my daughter's hard drive (her battery was dead) and I want to install my personal itunes on the new hard drive.  I was unable to deauthorize the original computer and I do not know how to reinstall my personal itunes.  Can someone help me with this?
    Thank you.

    Without a backup of your "crashed" HD you will have to download your iTunes purchases again. Make sure your restored computer is running the latest version of iTunes.
    Here is the procedure for your reference.
    On your restored computer, launch iTunes. Click on iTunes Store on the left
    On the right you will see this
    "Sign in" using the Apple ID used to purchase your songs, then click on "Purchased" (with the orange blob)
    On the summary page that appears select the tab "Not on This Computer" on the right.
    On the list that appears, select what you want and then click the "Download" button.
    When you want to play your newly downloaded music, you will have to "authorize" it. Don't worry about the lost HD until enough of your computers crash that you reach the limit of 5. Then you can "deauthorize all" and re-authorize as necessary.

  • My MacBook Pro hard drive died and under warranty a new one installed (hence lost everything).  I have updates outstanding in App Store but can't update due to Apple Id under a foreign name I have tried every possible angle. Stuck!

    Hi,
    I think I know the answer but just to be sure.
    To update outstanding Apps in the App Store do I really need to have the person who purchased or downloaded them to sign in?
    How can I remove his Apple ID altogether as this person holds no connection to me at all.
    His Apple ID has come with my newly installed hard drive (works carried out under warranty), so I'm
    assuming it is 2nd hand.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    You will need to erase the HDD and start over by reinstalling the OS and setting the Mac up as a new one with your own Apple ID.

  • My pc crashed and i bought a new one and now i need to deauthorize the pc that crashed but dont know how?

    how do i deauthorize my old computers I no longer have?

    My PC crashed and I bought a new Macbookpro. Trying to authorize my iphone & itunes account and my wifes itunes account on my new Mac. Since she deauthorized all computers Last April, it says I have to wait until April 2012 to sync them all.
    We have 5 people in my family, so we hit the limit as soon as we update or purchase anything. I really have to wait till April??? Is there a way around the yearly limit?

  • Hard drive crashed and need to transer songs back into iTunes from my iPod

    Help! I'm a newbie to this site, so I don't know if this question has been asked before, so please forgive me if it's been posted 1,000 times! My hard drive crashed so I had to have everything reinstalled on my laptop. I've got iTunes back, but it won't allow me to transfer my songs from my iPod into iTunes- I know Apple doesn't want people sharing their iPod libraries with each other so that we'll all still pay for songs, but I don't want to lose everything on my iPod or have to pay for the songs I bought again to get them back into iTunes. Is there any way I can get iTunes to download the songs back into it from my iPod? I heard of Senuti, but that only works for MAC users, and I'm on Windows XP. Any suggestions? TIA!

    1) Make sure you can view hidden files. In MY computer go to tools>folder options>view>show hidden files and folders.
    2) Windows should see the ipod and your music should be on your ipod in several hidden folders. To be safe I would copy it all to say your desktop.
    3) Install Itunes http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and the Ipod updater http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/ (if you don't already have it installed)
    After that drag the copied folder to Itunes (drag and drop or in Itunes (File>add folder to library)
    4) Plug ipod back in Itunes should see it and want to delete the contents say yes as it should all now be in your library.
    YOu may need to authorise Itunes music store again by playing one of the purchased songs and than logging into your account.

  • I have a 27" imac (intel) my hard drive failed and I installed a new one. This is my first time dealing with this so I am having trouble re-installing the OS. Install disc spits out and ? mark with folder appears what am I missing?

    Like the title says. My 1 TB drive failed and unfortunately my computer isn't covered on the replacement program even though my hard drive is the one they are claiming to replace. So that is not a solution just to get that out of the way. So I replaced the hard drive. What I am having trouble with is re-installing my OS. I have 10.6. When I load it and restart it just spits it out and I get the question mark folder. What am I doing wrong is there a step I'm missing? I did do a back up to my Time Machine before the crash. Can I plug it into it and reload format? I'm new to this so any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!
