My old harddrive died, I got a brand new one, and I'm trying to put more music onto my ipod without it trying to sync and delete my old music currently on it. Is there any way to avoid this?

as topic implies, I still have all the music from my old harddrive on here. I would like to...well...keep it, obviously, so I'm trying to find a way to add it to my iphone without it murdering the rest of my music because it has to sync it. I've tried checking off manually syncing music and such and when I click apply, it tries to remove everything off.
any way around this or do I have to use another program of sorts?

Yes. I have no personal experience with this, but it is possible to recover your music from an iPod. See this link: http://guides.macrumors.com/Recovering_Songs_from_an_iPod

HT1766 When I have iCloud Backup ON, the battery runs down on my iphone really quickly. Is there any way of avoiding this ? Thanks

When I have iCloud Backup ON, the battery runs down on my iphone really really quickly. Is there any way of avoiding this. I want to backup my iphone but don't want to be recharging all day. Many thanks

Are you sure the iCloud backup is causing this? Unless you initiate an iCloud backup manually, it will only back up once per day when the phone is connected to your charger and wi-fi and has the screen locked. It shouldn't otherwise be consuming any power.

In iTunes 8, I always use the search function at the top right to show just a certain band's albums. When I finish listening to a song or album and I want to browse from that point in my library, can I delete the search without iTunes automatically returning me to the beginning of my library?
As of now, I have to erase the search, keep the last song playing, press the the left-arrow button in the display at the top of iTunes to return to that song, and it gets annoying. I just want to be able to erase a search without it returning me to the top, and just leave me where I am. I seem to remember being able to do it in a previous version of iTunes.
Also, extra question: Can I make it so that when I browse through my library and a song completes, it does NOT automatically return to the next song? Can I have it just play through songs and let me browse?
Thanks in advance for any help given if at all possible.

*In iTunes 8, I always use the search function at the top right to show just a certain band's albums*
Why don't you use the iTunes Browser, it's a much easier way to navigate the library than searching all the time. If you turn on Browsing from View>Show Browser you can easily find what you want and filter the library by any combination of Genre, Artist and Album. You can also use a keyboard command to open and close the browser, on Windows hold down Control and B.

When iTunes upgraded, many of my song tags were changed by iTunes. This happened again when an update was sent this week. Is there any way to avoid this happening again in the future?

When I downloaded the new iTunes, it changed the tags on some of my tracks. As a result, I had to fix them manually. When I downloaded another upgrade this week, my tags changed again. How can I prevent this from happening in the future?

The cricual thing is to have a complete backup of your library that you could restore if needed.
What changes are you noticing? There appear to be some new as yet not well documented features designed to sync data across multiple libraries/devices which may have unwanted side effects.

In the iOS 5.1 there's a handy feature to take pictures without giving your enter-code first. But this also enables unwanted users to enter the phone without the code. Is there any way to avoid this? Geert

Thnx for replying

If your enter code is enabled you only have access to the camera, not even your camera roll.

I accidentally deleted a very important page in my NOTES. Is there any way to retrieve this?

I accidentally deleted an important page in NOTES. Is there any way to retrieve this?

If you have backed up the iPad since you created that page of notes and if you have not synced since, you can try restoring the iPad from a backup. Remember that the notes do have to be in the backup and when you restore from a backup, you restore all app data and files from that backup. You cannot select specific content to restore to the iPad. It is all or nothing.
If you want to try this, turn off auto sync in iTunes - without the iPad connected to the computer. Launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preference>Devices>Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from automatically syncing. Check the box at the bottom, click OK. Make sure that you have a backup in that window as well. Click OK and quit iTunes.
Now connect the iPad and launch iTunes. Right click on the iPad name on the left and select - Restore from Backup. Select your backup from the window - Let the iPad restore and then sync with iTunes.
you can turn at sync back on again when you are done.

HT4137 Will doing this erase old text messages? If so, is there any way to avoid losing them?

I just looked read iOS: How to back up your data and set up as a new device. I've been having a few bugs, but do not want to lose my old text messages. Will setting up as a new device and then syncing erase old text messages? If so, is there any way to avoid losing them?

You will not lose text message, if you back up your phone correctly and then restore from that backup. If your going to restore your phone as new and not from backup, then your text will not be there until you decide to restore from that backup.
If you don't want to lose the message, take a look in the app store to see if you can transfer to your computer.

I just bought a new Macbook Pro and loaded all my info from My old Macbook...now i can't remember for the life of me my Admin Password 9which i created 3 years ago)...is there ANY WAY to bypass this on my new Macbook Pro and begin again...?

I assume that you don't have the installation discs, so:
1. Reboot
2. Hold command + s key down after you hear the chime.
3. When you get a text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
(Type these commands very carefully)
mount -uw /
rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
shutdown -h now
4. You will go through the setup process again, create a new admin account, login to it and then change your existing account password or whatever else you need to do. You can delete the account you made in this process, or not.

First, you can install Microsoft's Security Essentials in the Win 7 VM and keep it up-to-date. Second, you can turn off Sharing in Fusion's System Settings to keep the VM environment separate from your Mac. Third, you can look into Sophos Anti-Virus http://www.sophos.com/en-us/products/free-tools/sophos-antivirus-for-mac-home-ed ition/download.aspx for the Mac host.

I have cs4 installed on my old computer, i have since lost the disk and serial #s. Is there any way to recover this information and install the programs on my new computer? I used my old computer for college and haven't used it in awhile, now I have a job that can benefit from having those programs. I was wondering if ADOBE keeps records or something to where I can download the programs on my new MacBook and use my old serial #s.

Is there any way to avoid rebuilding my iPhone 4 every 6 weeks when "OTHER" fills up my memory?

I am sick of rebuilding my iphone 4 every 6 weeks: setting up as a new phone, installing the apps again, reconfiguring them, rearranging them how I like them.
It's a pain in the behind and a very good advertisement for Android at the moment.
Is there a way to stop this from happening?
It's to the point now that I call each build as "My iPhone (build YYYYMMDD)". So today's fresh install underway is Build 20120324. The last one was 20120214.
The best Apple "support" could offer was to rebuild as a new iPhone each time.
So, with "Other" growing in 6 weeks from <1GB to 5.3 today (when it filled my phone's memory), is there any way to stop this?
My crappy, free, cheap Android tablet never has this problem!
GEF.

If you're restoring your phone so often, I'm minded to think it's something to do with one or more of the Apps and not the phone/iOS itself, (it's unlikely you'd get the same bug everytime).
Use your phone for a few days and make a note of long it takes for 'other' to build. Then restore as new but this time only sync the apps you really need. Again, make a note of long it takes for 'other' to build.
Maybe a process of elimination will tell?

She needs to call the carrier on her old iPhone and have it removed from her account.
Once she does that you will not be able to use iMessage because that only works Apple to Apple.
You will need to use something else like Skype instead.
