On Our shared laptop we had three music libraries. When I switch on the laptop this morning there were no libraries in itunes at all. It's as if ituned has installed itself from new and that we never had ipods? As far as I know no updates have been done. I restored the laptop back a couple of days and after restarting it still no libraries. How do I get them back please?

Try browsing out to and opening these alternate iTunes library using the instructions in this document.

Just installed iCloud on my iPhone and my contacts are not longer on my phone, so how do I get them back?

I just did an update on my iPhone and installed iCloud and my iPhone no longer has my contact on it. Why is this? How do I get them back there?

I recently updated my MacBook Pro to the new software, and now my iMessage and my FaceTime are not connected with my computer. How do I get them to match so that I would be able to use my cellphone number?

To reset any OS X program just go to the folder and trash the affected files.
Open a new Finder Window
Click "Go" in the above status bar
Click and HOLD the "option/alt" key and you will see "Library" now show in the above list
Click Library while still holding the option/alt key and a new window will open with all of your system files
Go to the preference file (NOT Preference Panes)
Locate a file named <com.apple.FaceTime.bag.plist>
Locate another file named <com.apple.FaceTime.plist>
Locate the file <com.apple.iMessage.bag.plist>
Drag the files to the trash
Delete the trash
Close FaceTime and iMessage if not already closed
Relaunch FaceTime and iMessage from Applications folder
This should reset the program back to default. You will have to put your information back into the program but it should work.
Good Luck.

HT201317 Not all my photos transferred after I reset my account. How do I get them all back?

I reset my phone to restore from a backup and it seemed all my photos were going to be restored. While that was happening, I deleted a couple in there I didn't want anymore and then it stopped restoring them. Is there any way I can get them back?

Restore from the backup again?

I want to know why all of the music that is still on my iphone is not on my itunes acct and how I can get it all on there?

For some reason all of the music on my iPhone is no longer on my iTunes account. I have done a down load and quite a bit of it has been added to the itunes account, but there is still quite a bit of music that is still not on the iTunes that I have on my phone. All of the music I have was either put on itunes initially by a CD or I bought it from iTunes directly. I want to know how I can make them match.

Yes there is. Those songs are not actually on your iPad. They are in iCloud ready for download if you choose to do so. If you want to remove them go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show All>Music>Off. You can also do this in Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off.

All applications are missing in my applications folder. How do I get them listed again

I have a folder listed but it shows being empty. Is there any way to rebuild the folder or some correction to the problem?

Interesting - I've got three Macs and two of them are as I described, but now I check the third one doesn't have the Applications folder at the user account level.
I guess the OP should ignore by post as I've obviously got it wrong (no change there ). Can't explain why I have the folder on my user account though, even has the Applications icon on it. I'm certain I didn't create it myself - in fact it is empty of any applications as I'm the only user of the machines and actually have no need for the empty folder.
(All Macs are running 10.7.2)

I have Apple TV hooked up. I went to computer, photos, events. Only 8 of my events show up and it will not scroll to view others. How can I get them all to appear on screen for viewing.

"Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005?"
They will only be where you put them If you are doing the very basics, then they will be on your computer and they will be in your backup copy of your computer.
The itunes store is not global at all, never has been. You cannot redownload your content from another country. You can only use the countrys itunes store for the country that you are physically located.

I tried to sync the music on my PC with my old iPhone, but all of my songs on iTunes were deleted, How do I get them back?

I tried to sync the music on my PC with my old iPhone, but all of my songs on iTunes were deleted, How do I get them back? When I go to the iTunes store and look at the songs I hade before, it says I already purchased them, but when I go back to my library, they are all gone. I thought it was just removing the songs from my phone, but now I have no music on my phone or PC. Please help!

The sync is one way - computer to iphone.
You need to copy everything from your old computer to your new one.

By any chance, did you have the Find My iPhone app installed prior to it being stolen?

Hopefully you had your iTunes purchases backed up to an external source such as an external drive or CD's?

Have you been regularly backing up? Time Machine is only available on Mac, you will see it in the applications folder.
You can also reload music

Perhaps the copyright holders chose to remove them. What album were you after?

HT1386 My (iTunes) playlist cannot be re-synched to my iPhone after I updated it. I synched it to a newly named playlist with most of the original songs (3.6G) but it will only load a fraction of them now. How can I get them all back on my iPhone.

I used iCloud before I updated to the new iOS 6 and now I only have 44 pictures how can I get them all back?

Photo stream only keeps your photos for 30 days. After that, they are removed from your photo stream but not from any device that has already received them. Chances are, the 44 photos are from the last 30 days; the others are not there because they are no longer in your photo stream.
If the photos were in your camera roll when you last backed up, restoring to the backup should recover them. However, you will have to restore to the entire backup to do so. If they weren't backed up or imported to your computer, there is no way to recover them now.
To be sure your photos are saved, regularly import them from the camera roll to your computer as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
