Restore from your most current backup.

Why would you think this? That's an ignorant assumption to make.
Your media is only where you put it.
Either move it from the old computer or restore it from the backup of the old computer. -
Got a SONY mp3 player for Christmas: How do I sync with iTunes?
OK, here's the deal. I have a MacBook Pro and use iTunes regularly, but now I have a SONY mp3 player from Santa. How do I get my songs from iTunes onto my SONY? Someone help. Thanks!
I have tried this with a SanDisk mp3 player, so I am not sure if it would work with a Sony - don't see why not..
Open your iTunes, build a playlist of songs you want to put in the Walkman.
Connect the Walkman and when the icon mounts on the desktop, open the Finder window to it - if it has a .mp3 folder inside, ('cos the sony devices have multiple folders in some instances), open that. Drag and drop the playlist of songs - (the list not the sidebar icon for it) into the .mp3 folder, and it should copy the files right in. iTunes itself will not likely 'see' the Walkman, but the Finder does, and will treat it like a new storage volume - which it is. You just build the iTunes playlists to tell the Finder what to copy.

Software conflict between iPhoto and Sony MP3 player
I am experiencing a major software conflict between iPhoto and my Sony MP3 player (model: NWZ-E443). In the past, whenever I connect the MP3 to my 2009 MacBook Pro, iPhoto always opened. I would simply close iPhoto and everything would be OK, though. But after upgrading iPhoto a few months ago via an upgrade download I am now unable to view images full-screen. Although thumbnails display OK, when I double-click on any of them to display full-screen, the MP3's 'Do Not Disconnect' image displays full-screen instead, even when the MP3 is not connected.
I have tried reinstalling iPhoto from the original iLife disc, but this didn't work and my fear is that the Sony software has somehow corrupted every image single file in my library.Turns out my Mac put code on the mp3 player because after I reset the mp3 player to its 'factory settings', (erasing everything) it went back to normal and now shows up in the finder window.

I plugged my Sony mp3 player into my mac mini, Snow Leopard, and it synced with my iphoto. Now it does not show up as a device anywhere, not even iphoto. When I plug in the mp3 via its usb, it opens iphoto. How do I stop this and get it back as a device in my Finder window so I can load songs on it again.

I have and ipod and itunes account, how do I add my daughter's new sony mp3 player so we can purchase music?
Home sharing only allows you to stream content from a computer's iTunes to an iOS device or another computer (and to copy from the computer to another computer), you can't use it to copy items to an iOS device.
If the apps are still in your country's store then you should be able to redownload them on your iPad via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on it, and for music (if you are in a country where music purchases can be redownloaded and they are still in the store) then you can redownload them via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your iPad. Or you can copy them from your iPod to your computer's iTunes library by connecting it and using the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option and then sync them to your iPad. -

Connecting a Sony DVD player to Sony STR-DH750 AV Receiver with RCA cables
I have connected a Sony DVD player with RCA cables to Sony STR-DH750 AV Receiver at the VIDEO inputs. I get audio, but no video. How do I connect the DVD player to the AV receiver to get both audio and video?
Hi JB4,
Are you using HDMI cable in addition to your RCA connection? This HDMI cable is from the receiver going to the TV using the HDMI OUT port. Another option, you are using the RCA yellow + red&white right? you may connect the yellow cable directly to your TV if it has yellow port for video.
Thanks.

Hi to whomever can help me-
I just bought a mac, but I already had a Sony mp3 player which already has all my music on it. Is it possible to transfer music to it, or is itunes only compatible with ipods?
thanks!
LauraYa you should be able to use it with iTunes just fine. But not automatically like an iPod can.
One way is if the Sony shows up as a standard drive on the computer (it should right?) you can probably drag and drop tunes directly from the iTunes window onto the Sony. It should make a copy on the Sony. If not, then you can always do it outside of iTunes by simply going into the iTunes folder and drilling down to the songs or albums you want and manually dragging and dropping them into the Sony.
Just make sure you set up the iTunes preferences for importing to use MP3 files to keep your library compatible with the Sony. By default, after you install iTunes starts set up for importing as AAC files (MPEG4).

Connecting my Sony BD player to my MacBook Pro wireless network. It sees the network but it then asks for a WPA security key. Where do I find this key?
Hi Michael,
It sounds like your router's authentication is set to WPA and thus where the key is established. Does your MacBook Pro connect to a wireless router? If so, that's where you'd need to get the key from via a web-based control panel for the router or if it's an AEBS via AirPort Utility. -
How can I connect my Creative mp3 Player and my car ste
I need to connect my Creative mp3 Player and my car stereo (Peugeot 407 standard car stareo). It haven't cassette player or an "AUX IN" hole. Any Idea?
<FONT face=Helv size=2>
Unfortunately (for us consumers) there are few options.
) Use an FM transmitter which does not work in your area.
2) There was a post in this forum where the person had a device installed that would switch from the car antenna to an FM transmitter. So effecti'vely, the FM transmitter is spliced right into the antenna line into your car stereo. The theory is that it's either using the car antenna or your MP3 player, but never both. There are no competing FM stations. The use also said this cost them $200 .... which makes option 3 a better deal considering FM will decrease the fidelity of a MP3 player.
3) Buy a car stereo with an input jack .. as SSR as sited.
4) You can buy a cassette adapter ... if your current car stereo has a circa 20th century cassette player.
5) Start a grass roots effort to lobby car manufacturers to put in a input jack in the car stereos. The American companies might be softened after this SUV bust.
If you pick #5, I'm available to stamp and stuff envelopes ......

When i connect my iPhone to iTunes, it says i have to set up my iPhone, and wont allow me to sync any media i have already purchased on it. My phone is not new, so I dont understand? This all came about when i updated the iOS 6 software. I have tried to re-set up my phone but it makes no difference and deletes everything off my phone.

Maybe you should get new friends.
I'm not sure that recovery mode works when you have to trust the computer, but did you try it?
If you can't update or restore your iOS device - Apple Support
If that won't work, perhaps you can use Find my iPhone from a computer in your iCloud.com account to erase the device.
iCloud: Erase your device - Apple Support
This has nothing to do with the Find my iPhone app being installed on the phone, but you do have to have Find my iPhone activated in the iCloud settings on the phone. -
