All the apps on my MacBook Pro have been transferred to the Trash. Any idea how I might get them back into my iTunes?
I recently noticed that all the apps stored on my MacBook Pro are now in the Trash. This is the computer from which I synch all my devices. I'm not sure what I did to make that happen, but I'd like to transfer them back into my iTunes. I have tried to drag and drop them back into iTunes, and I have tried to right-click them to see if there is a good option. Any ideas?
If the applications have got a IPA extension, they are apps for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. First of all, open iTunes and go to Applications to check that your applications are still there, because iTunes removes the old app version when it is updated, so you may have an old version in Trash. In this case, you can empty it.
If not, open a Finder window, select the Go menu (in the menu bar) -> Go to Folder, and type:
~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Mobile Applications
When you are in the folder, open the Trash and move your apps to this folder.

Hi Raymond,
I am having the same issue. But I can't seem to be able to find my books & PDF's. How did you find them? I am trying to locate them on my iPad.
Thanks,

Download Past Purchases

Log into iTunes using the account the Purchase was made with... Click on Buy... and a notice will come up saying you already have it... do you wish to download it again... Click Yes... -
I found my itunes songs marked with an exclamation point in the media file. How do I move them back into the libary? I have tried copying and pasting but that didn't work. When I hit control, then click, there is no option "Put back" as suggeseted in the apple supoort article.
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have. -
I have two groups for my Coldplay collection. How do I get them back into one group?
In early 2009, my Coldplay collection jumped from their then-four studio albums to a collection in triple digits. Somewhere along the way, certain songs and albums were going into a separate group called 'Coldplay', just like the regular 'Coldplay'. Countless times, I have gone through each and every song and album in the second group to check for any inconsistincies, but, everything looks identical.
I am OCD in terms of things belonging where they should and having two groups of the same thing drive me insane.
When the problem first arose, I was using Windows XP. I received a MacBook Pro for graduation this past May and I used Home Sharing to transfer my music to my new Mac. I was hoping something could be changed, but alas, nothing.
Any help?Look at Steve MacGuire's helpful article: http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp It explains how to solve this much better than I can.

Working alternating with iPhoto and FCE tgrying to import pictures from iPhoto into FCE suddenly all my 22300 pictures disappeared leaving empty frames. Does somebody know where the pictures could have gone and how can I get them back into iPhoto? Lothar
The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I have downloded ITunes to a new laptop and signed in this let's me download previous purchases in to the librery but can't get the films I have bought quite a lot over time any idea how I can get them ???
You cannot.
You buy one and only one download of movies. it is your responsibility to backup your purchases.
Copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one. -

I found a iPad Mini and would like to return it to the original owner. I believe it was previously stolen and it cannot be activated. Any idea how I can get it back to the original owner?
I am very disappointed (yet I somewhat understand) Apple and how they completely have no interest in helping return lost items. I don't believe the person who traded me this was from around here so I don't even know where to begin. I seen on ebay you can sell them for parts but I don't really believe in doing that and would like to at least try my best to get it back to whom it belongs to. I will be contacting my local police department regarding this but I don't think they will be able to do much if it was stolen from somewhere else. However if nobody claims it in 90 days and I have a letter from my local police station saying I am the new owner, will that be enough for apple to unhold their policy of proving the item belongs to you?

I by accident deleted an important Note that had all my passwords on my Notes Ap on my Iphone 5. I can not find a file that has deleted Notes files so I can recover it. Any idea how I can get it back? Thanks,Mike
Do you have a backup of your iPhone? If so, do a restore and whatever Notes were backed up should reappear.
You will lose any changes made since that backup though. -
My iphone was restored to its original state and I lost all of my contacts and applications... any ideas how I can get it back??
Why did you restore without transferring your music to your computer?
If you are in the U.S., then you can use the newly released beta version of the cloud to get your music.
