After replacing the hard drive on my G4 Powerbook and reinstalling Tiger I am no longer able to synch between itunes and my ipod (Classic 160gb) it would seem that the software on the ipod is of later date than itunes and I am unable to update itunes to the state prior to the original harddrive's failure for Tiger OSX 10.4.11
Any ideas on the subject would be most helpful
Thanks in advance

The last security update released for Tiger users was the 2009-005 update. The latest version of QuickTime is 7.6.4. The last version of iTunes that can run on Tiger is 9.2.1, because 10.0 only supports Mac OS X Leopard and later.
So, are you on version 9.2.1?
Was it Tiger or Leopard you had on the drive before?
iTunes 9.2.1 download...

    Hello and welcome to the support community
    You only option is to buy a copy of Mac OS X, either the retail disk or system disks.
    There are places you can by a copy of Mac OS X, like online vendors, Amazon or eBay.
    System disk are gray and come with more than one disk. Retail disk are black with a 'X' on them and often come as one DVD disk.
    Not sure what version your going to require as you haven't provided any specification and model details.
    I would safely assume being a G4, it would be happy to install Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger.
    If you could let us know the PowerBook you own, then I am sure we could advise you further.
    Best of luck

  • How to keep using existing Time Machine backup after replacing main hard drive

    The hard drive in my iMac (Lion) is failing. I cloned it to a new drive and installed it in the iMac. Now the system wants to start fresh with a whole new Time Machine backup.
    It seems obvious that there must be a way to keep using the existing Time Machine backup set, but I can't figure out how to do it. Help, please.

    If you had done a full system restore from Time Machine, it would have been done automatically.  But 3rd-party cloning apps don't leave a "trail" so Time Machine can figure out that the new drive has all the old stuff on it.
    Effective with Lion, there is a way to "associate" the new drive with the backups of the old one, but it requires the use of Terminal.  See #B6 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.  As noted though, this only works on directly-connected backup drives, not backups made over a network.

  • After replacing my hard drive, my iTunes won't transfer music to and from my iPhone 5?

    Hi,
    I recently got my hard drive replaced after it died on me. I went to transfer songs onto my computer but it said I needed to update both my iTunes and my iPhone first. So I have and it says that it synced up all ok, but none of the songs got transferred. Simply dragging music over from my iPhone to iTunes didn't work so I manually tried to sync the music, but it came up with the message that in order to do this I'd have to erase all my music from my iPhone to sync with iTunes, when I would rather it be the other way around.
    From reading forums, I understand that you are only allowed to sync the iPhone with one computer only and I have come to the conclusion that my iPhone still thinks it's paired with the iTunes that's on the broken hard drive and therefore thinks I'm trying to sync with another computer. However, I'm still using the same apple ID so I don't understand how that can be possible, so I am quite confused really.
    All I want is to have all my old songs back in my iTunes. The only other thing I can think of is the Yosemite upgrade. I am not convinced on the upgrade since there are mixed posts about it and the only good comments are about its looks when I'm more concerned about its practicality. Could this be the problem with my iTunes? Any help would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Unfortunately, what you have described is normal with iTunes and iOS devices when changing Macs or (and as you discovered) hard drives. I think you get around this problem though if you rebuild your Mac from a Time Machine backup.
    Question: how much of your music is ripped from CDs or downloaded or purchased from iTunes?
    I would imagine you are going to have to erase your phone, but there are 2 possible options as I would see it:
    Copy the music from an old Time Machine backup. Even if Time Machine is based on your old system, as long as it’s not encrypted, an Administrator account should still be able to access the TM folder (perhaps with some tweaks to folder permissions).
    Get hold of a dedicated piece of software for copying music off your iPhone. Google will present you a few options, although be careful: music on your phone is not stored in a filename friendly way, so you will no way of easily identifying the song or getting iTunes to recognise it either. You probably want software that builds filenames and copies the metadata with it, although these aren’t generally free.
    Don’t forget that any purchased songs you can re-download off iTunes.

  • Can I restore my system after replacing my hard drive with the original leopard discs, then use my time machine backup (with Snow Leopard) to finish the restore?

    I am replacing my original 100gb hard drive for a 500gb.  I am currently running OS X.6.7.  I understand the process of how to install the new drive and restore the system from the disc.  What I am unsure of is whether I need the Snow Leopard disc or can I use the original Leopard discs and then plug in my time machine backup to complete the restore?

    How do I restore my entire system?.
    or, use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone your current system to an external HD, replace the HD, then clone the clone back to the new drive.

  • Can't install OS X after replacing dead hard drive

    Hello-
    Today I replaced the dead hard drive (Genius bar-confirmed) on my MacBook.
    The replacement itself was uneventful.
    When I tried to load OS X, I reached the page that asks me which language I want, but that was as far as I could go. I received a warning: "ALERT--this software can't be installed on this computer". I backed out and went into Disk Utility, and YES--it recognized the new hard drive (although there was a line somewhere about "unformatted"). The new drive is a SATA 2.5" Fujitsu 7200 rpm drive. The Genius Bar guy said to definitely get a SATA 2.5".
    Any suggestions, please?
    Much appreciated.
    THANK YOU.

    Well. I've checked out all the Fujitsu drive reports here and see no problems...

  • Time machine after replacing Mac hard drive

    After I replaced my Mac's system drive, Time Machine won't go back prior to the change, even though the data's still in the Backups.backupdb directory.
    Here's my system:
    MacPro 2x2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 6GB RAM
    320 GB internal drive = "MacHD" = system drive
    1 TB internal drive = "HD1" = new internal drive that will replace MacHD
    2 TB external drive = "BKUP_TM" = Time Machine drive
    Here's what I did:
    1. Install and format HD1 as Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    2. Clone MacHD to HD1 using SuperDuper, with "copy all files" and "make bootable" options enabled
    3. Remove MacHD and reboot computer with HD1 as new system drive
    4. Mount BKUP_TM
    5. Allow Time Machine software run overnight to do whatever it wants (it recognized the BKUP_TM drive immediately and without my input)
    6. Launch Time Machine software after it completes its activity. This is where I noticed that I could only look back in time 1 day to the point of step 5 above.
    7. At the finder level, open the BKUP_TM drive and notice that:
    A. The data is all held in one directory (as expected)
    B. The data still goes back to August 2012 (as expected)
    Here's my overall question:
    How do I get Time Machine to access the data correctly?
    If I have to, I could reinstall the MacHD drive, erase HD1 and start over, but I'm concerned that even that would not get me back to being able to access the full depth of my Time Machine data in the Backups.backupdb directory.
    Thanks, in advance, for the help,
    -SD

    Yes. The good news is all my data is safe on:
    - the original location of MacHD (currently not installed in the Mac)
    - the new location of HD1
    - the TM drive of BKUP_TM
    Might it be a good idea for me to do this?
    1. Manually delete any directories on BKUP_TM that are after the change from MacHD to HD1
    2. Reinstall MacHD and remove HD1
    3. Boot from MacHD
    4. Mount BKUP_TM so that it will see MacHD and reassociate itself with MacHD
    5. Reinstall HD1 and reformat it
    6. Remove MacHD
    7. Boot from OS DVD
    8. Use Time Machine to restore from backup (on BKUP_TM) or use Migration Assistant to populate HD1.
    This idea has flaws (would step 4 work??) and is a lot of steps and time, but it *might* get me back to a usable TM history.
    I should note this: NO work has been done on this computer since I first introduced HD1. This means that I will lose NO data if I go back to MacHD as my system drive and use it as the new starting point.
    That's just my idea. All ideas are welcome.

  • Problems with back up after replacement of hard drive

    Hi,
    Recently I had my Seagate hard drive change due to a world wide recall by Apple. Prior to changing, I backup everything on my Mac using Time Machine with Time capsule. The technician bootup my system using a boot disk I think, after that I transferred all backup data from my time capsule to the Mac. Everything seems alright with the "restore" until I want to back up my latest data....I could not back up as my previous latest copy and just backup teh changes. The TCapsule showed my data which is 259GB but I cannot use back this data.
    Do I have to delete this copy of backup in TC and restart the process from strt again? 259GB might take up to 24hours.
    Please advise.
    Andy

    You need to erase the Time Capsule drive and start again. Whenever you change a hard drive, motherboard, etc., then Time Machine considers that a new computer and wants to create a new backup.
    Use Airport Utility to erase the Time Capsule drive. Do not try removing the data manually.
