After operating system upgrade my iTunes doesn't have my Apps
I updated my MacBook Pro to the new operating system today. Unfortunately the update crashed my iphone and i had to restore it to the original settings and then restore it from my latest back up (which fortunately i backed it up today). However, I only have about 10% of my apps on my phone. I then went to iTunes to try to restore my apps from there but I can't find the list of all my previously purchased/downloaded apps. Please help!
I've been fooling around and discovered a couple of problems. I couldn't understand why apps I KNEW that i paid for and were on my phone were now showing up as a charge. Turns out I have overlapping problems at play here. I purchased a MacBook Pro a couple of months ago and a friend set it up for me. Turns out that he didn't make my MacBook "authorized" for my iTunes account. I did that and then the apps changed to show "downloaded" so I no longer had to pay to download it again. I thought I had solved my problem. But the apps still weren't showing up as a list for me to sync. I downloaded a couple again, hoping that it would help me find where they were going, and it did go to the screen that showed what had been downloaded and the pages from my phone. I tried to sync and received a warning. Apparently my apps are all connected to my iTunes library from my old laptop (which has been reformated and given to my Mom so thats not a solution). It says that if i sync now, i will forever lose all the apps i have in that other library.
Any ideas how to fix this? I could start from scratch... but i hope I don't have to do that.

Re-installing iTunes after operating system upgrade
Hi,
Just recently I upgraded my PC form WindowsXP to Windoes7, 64bit.
I had iTunes on my main drive, so that is gone and I want to re-install iTunes, or install the latest version of it.
I still have my old iTunes music library on another hard-drive, so I was wondering if it's possible to install iTunes and link it to my old library, that way I would not have to rip all my CD's again.
Does anybody know if this is possible at all, or do I really have to start all over again putting my CD's into a new iTunes library?
Thanks,
LarsWhat exactly is on your 2nd HD? Is it the entire itunes folder (which contains your itunes database files) or is it just the itunes content folders (music, videos, podcasts, etc)?
The itunes database file is named iTunes Library.itl
If that is on your 2nd HD, then do a shift-start of itunes and select it.
By that I mean, press AND HOLD the shift key. Keep pressing until you see hte prompt to choose an existing library.
If you do not have your old database file, you will need to open Windows Explorer to the 2nd HD, and drag & drop the itunes folder into the itunes screen. Drop it on the word LIBRARY. -
No audio on incoming or outgoing calls after operating system upgrade
I have iphone 4.....Everything was working fine with it until today when I upgraded to iOS 5. My condition seems to be described here in several other posts where the phone app appears to be working fine but I can't hear anyone and no one can hear me once connected. I called tech support who advised to do a full reset....which I did many times with no luck. Each time...the problem continued. I got one call out of the phone after the upgrade.
I tried the head phone jack solution which appeared commonly throughout but also did not have any luck.
Out of pure frustration.....I decided to drop my phone about a meter on its back side. I figured it couldn't hurt.
Tried again...and everything is working fine now.
I have no explanation. I did 10+ resets and it was not fixing the problem.....dropped it once and I'm back in business and everything is working normally again.Any good news for my Disabled phone brothers?
Will iOS 5.1 resolve this freeeking bug issue?
What developers say? Apple had noticed the issue or just ignoring and tryng to be dumb as always?
Please let me know. -
Won't Print Color After Operating System Upgrade
Within the last year I purchased a LaserJet CP1525nw color, and I recently upgraded to Windows 7 32-bit and now I can't print color. I've tried loading the driver from the CD that originally came with the print and I get an error message saying that it can not install the driver. I've looked on the HP website to see if there are any updates for this printer and I can't seem to find any. I was able to find a list of devices that are supported by Windows 7, and a list of devices that are not supported by Windows 7 and my printer was not on either list.
I'm wondering if there is anything that I've missed as far as fixes or updates for this problem, or am I just out of luck with wanting to print color with this printer now that I've upgraded to Windows 7.Hi Akfshslyr,
Try installing the full feature software and driver for this printer.

How do I erase my hard drive? My initial operating system was Snow Leopard but I have upgraded to Mavericks OS. My Snow Leopard install disk ejects when I try and use it.
Do a backup, preferable 2 separate ones on 2 drives. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the OS.

I have a Mac running OS X 10.4.11 with a 1.83 intel core duo what is the highest operating system upgrade that I can get?
You can check to see if yours meets the system requirements for Snow Leopard - that would be the highest; Lion will not run on your machine.
Please note that the minimum 1 GB RAM is a minimum - 2 GB would be better.

You can buy it at the Apple Store, other online resellers, or ebay (but be careful there to only bid on a new retail shrinkwrapped package to you don't get suckered into a used install disk which won't work on other machines). -

New Build with Operating System upgrade from ME to XP
I am going to inbark on my first system build. THe MSI K8N Neo4 Platinium is highly recommended. I am not going to do a complete rebuild. I am just going to keep my newest hardward from my old system. My old processer a P3 933mhz along with moboard is at the core of my upgrade. I noticed on the K8N page that the board does not support ME. My old system (Gateway) shipped with ME for which I purchased the XP upgrade. I understand that the XP upgrade disk has the full operating system on it and all I have to do is put the ME disk in when the XP disk asks for previous operating system. Will this board be able to recognize the ME disk so that it will pass muster with the XP upgrade disk?
Quote from: Edddd on 02-July-05, 21:15:37
Thank you both for the prompt reply, what are your thoughts about the K8N Neo4 Platinium mobo? Is it as good as Tom's Hardware says it is? I am planning on intalling an AMD Athlon 64 3700 San Diego on it. I am not a real power gamer. I just want something that will antincipate the future. My current rig, P3 933mhz has lasted me for 5 years. Thanks
The MSI K8N NEO 4 Platinum is a very stable board, has a good range of features, is highly overclockable and is just great. I think mine is great so far and I suggest you buy a decent power supply with 22A - 24A minimum on the +12V rail to make sure it lasts and worls 100% correctly.

Why this new version of iTunes doesn't have Album Art or It didn't show up?
Why this new version of iTunes doesn't have Album Art or It didn't show up?
Also, in my iPod Touch 4th, it erase all album art from my iPod, then i tried to put again a new Album Art, ...download again from the image sites and still ...it didn't show up.? What a waste!
I waste all my time to set all album art on my iPod, then it just gone. kindly pls fix this issue. hate this new version of iTunes, so complicated.
The first thing i saw after i install new version of iTunes, it showed only music files. I don't know where to look for the old version of Sidebar. I keep on trying to look for it where I can see or any sign off button just to show up this stupid SideBar. Also, why i couldn't find? The "Menu Bar" is also hide!
Until i found out in "View" tab. Then i saw the Show Sidebar. Question? why do you need to hide that Side Bar? For what?. it is so so so complicated specially to those people who can't relate for this. (Also the button (from previous iTunes) to show the Album Art, now it's gone. I check every Tab, but there's no way to see the Album Art.)
Another comment. I download also some of my songs to my iPod, I wasted my time to collect all of my favorite music files. Also some are came from CD's and friends. I had all that favorite music in my iPod. Then the version iOS 5.+ came then I updated my iPod, another options to save files (iCloud) but I think there are something that I MISS about updating my iPod. Then suddenly I checked my iPod... all music (with Album Arts) are gone. All Apps are Gone. Videos as well.
If you don't know how to use that iCloud (with only 5GB storage), you'll gonna miss/lost everything.
Then I start all over again, i still have my BACK UP, good to have that. Now it's all set until I update the latest iOS 6. And another version of iTunes.
Then I realized my computer getting slow. I uninstalled it. My laptop started to work fast again. Then I download again the iTunes. So now I know, it has the ability to slow my computer. Everytime I turn on my iTunes, it hang. (Not Responding). Solution... CTRL+ALT+DELETE. Then every second time to open the iTunes, and it works. (it means, to open iTunes, need twice)
Then suddenly my laptop is not working. All my files has been corrupted. My Hard drive doesn't work properly. Now I don't have any stupid BACK UPs. My music files usage is 18 GB, only contacts, documents, notes, or some other files that can only fit to your "iCloud" not my 18GB music files and other photos. Your solution is to BUY more storage. Another COST! Another wasting time to set everything then need to pay more?
If you let your unit (iPod,iPhone,iPad) to export music to PC, or any mini SDcard to use as storage, it won't happen.
There is another....
It has Bluetooth, right?
Use less! Doesn't work. There's no way to use it.
All I need is to install an application to use your bluetooth. (for same unit or Apple unit only). And pictures only can send via Bluetooth if you an application.
Even if you go to "Photos" check if there's a way to send pictures? there is no way to send via Bluetooth, even Photos, Songs.etc. It can't even share some other friends (even they have own iPad, iPod, iPhone or same products) who has a unit with Bluetooth.
And the last.. only one port. there's no way to watch videos through HDMI. No HDMI port, no SD or any card slot. Must to buy their products.
Very costly!
I know (like iPod) it's very friendly to use it, but you must spend more money first before it can use.Yes, the old album art view is gone, bu you can see the album art for a song that's playing by clicking on the art image and it will open a bigger view.
Everything else in your post is a waste. I'm not going to spend time reading it. If - and I repeat if, you have a question on how to get the best out of the new look iTunes, post it. But don't spend your time in long rambling negative rants. -
HT2534 why my itunes doesn't have the none button on payment type?
why my itunes doesn't have the none button on payment type?
I haven't gotten anywhere, unfortunately.
Just to confirm we're having the same problem: I'm using a 4th generation iPod touch and I'm using the Nike+ iPod app to link to the Nike+ Sensor that goes in the insert in the shoe.
After I finish a workout, I click "Send to Nike+" which switches to Safari and loads nikeplus.com. I log in and... it doesn't seem to do anything else... Nothing shows up on nikeplus.com.
Has this pretty much been your experience as well? -
I bought a new computer, and downloaded iTunes, therefore the new itunes doesn't have my music or anything on there. I want to get everything on my iPhone to my new computer/itunes. But no matter what I do, it won't let me. My desktop has everything that my phone has on it, I just want it all moved to my laptop. Does that make sense? I could really use some help. I don't live with this desktop anymore so I need to be able to use my laptops itunes. Please help me. Thanks in advance!
These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then seeRecover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.
