Apple replaced my hard drive now the Volume shows as offline. How do I restore it?

After Apple did a hard disk replacement under warranty the volume that contains all of my images shows as offline when I use the reconnect feature. How do I get the volume to show as on line so I do not have to manually reconnect several thousands of images? How do I reconnect all of the images?

The volume in question is your MacontoshHD, I take it? So it is online, since your system is running. Aperture does not recognize it as online, for it is looking for your old MacintoshHD with a different device ID, that will never again be online.
You should still be able to reconnect all of your offline images at once, when you select all at once in the Browser, before going to the "Locate Referenced Files" window.
In the "Locate Referenced Files" dialog uncheck the option "Show only files not found". Then you should be able to see all missing files like this:
In the lower part of the window navigate to the corresponding original file and select. Now you should see the "Reconnect all" button. Press it. Usually this reconnects all images at once.
Good Luck.

    Brian:
    I replaced my hard drive in my Powerbook G4 1.25
    I take that to mean that you removed the old HDD and replaced it with a brand new Parallel ATA/IDE 2.5" HDD. Correct?
    and it will not load the operating system
    Do you mean that it will not boot from the install disk? or
    Do you mean that you booted from the install drive disk, formatted your new HDD and installed the OS and now you cannot boot from the installation?
    Here are directions for formatting and for installation:

    Thanks for your help in advance!

    If the computer shipped with Snow Leopard then you would have received an install DVD for iLife with the computer.

  • HT1420 I replaced my hard drive now cannot get itunes to authorize this same computer because I guess the drive ID is different. What a pain in the butt this system is.

    Replaced my hard drive now Itunes tells me I have more computers that authorized.
    I cannot deauthorize this computer as it is the one I use all the time and two of the others are long gone.
    What a PITA
    Thanks

    Boot up from your Snow Leopard Install DVD while holding down the "c" key.
    Select the language you wish to use, and then choose "Disk Utility" from the menu bar.
    Your HD should appear in a panel on the left hand side of the window which opens. Select it and then click on the "repair disk" button in the right hand section of the window.
    If Disk First aid is unable to complete the repair you will need to use a stronger 3rd party utility like DiskWarrior or TechTool Pro.
    Once this process has been completed restart your computer.

  • Exactly how do I go from 10.6.1 to Mountain Lion on an Apple replaced iMac hard drive please?

    I am having the hard drive (from the recall) on my 2009 intel iMac in an hour in my home via Apple. I have 2 seperate backups on two different external drives. Both have Mountain Lion which I purchased when it came out. Apple specifies the tech will only put the install dvd that came with the iMac in 2009 which has 10.6.1. so will i have to update to 10.6.8 (can I even do this?) which is a Mountain Lion requirement and then firewire transfer from my backup drive? I'm looking (gratefully) for the exact steps. Thanks. dennis

    The easiest way to accomplish this, assuming your hard drive is working and it's being replaced as a precaution, is to make a complete bootable clone of the internal hard drive to one of your external drives using a utility such as Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper!. Then once the drive has been replaced, just boot your system from the clone and clone it back to the internal drive.
    Regards.

  • Iphoto library on external hard drive now does not show all the photos when i access it from macbook

    i backed up iphoto library to an external hard drive.  Deleted photo library on the macbook.  After transferring some new photos to macbook from a camera, when i access the iphoto library on external hard drive only the new photos show up.  Originals are still in files, but don't appear when opening iphoto library on external hard drive.

    Make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and  apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • TS4002 I replaced my hard drive now i have no emails on my computer.

    I replaced my hard drive to a bigger one and then had to re install my operating system.  How do I get all my emails that are on the cloud or my phone onto my computer?  It's like i have 2 different emails. On my computer everything is blank and on the cloud and my iPhone I have all my emails.  Help

    You just need to set up your email account in Mail with the correct settings. Chances are, you will want to use IMAP so that if you delete an email on your Mac it is also deleted on your iPhone - they stay in sync. POP downloads the email but when you delete an email it doesn't delete it from the server. There are a fair amount of settings that need to be correct in order to get it set up.
    Remove your current email account via Mail > Preferences > Accounts > select it in the list > hit the - button. Then you can add a new one with the + button.
    Good luck!

  • Replaced my hard drive, now freezes constantly

    hi there,
    recently, my macbook pro (15" 2.53 ghz, 4gb ram, 250gb hdd) hard drive crashed, having no warranty left, i went through all of the troubleshooting but nothing worked. i took it into futureshop and they tried the diagnostic and concluded that the hard drive crashed, and they told me to find a new hard drive in their store and theyll replace it for free (because it only takes a few minutes). i found a 500GB 2.5" SEAGATE hard drive in the store, and they fit it in for me. then i took it home and installed the O/S myself.
    IT WORKED GREAT!!!!! but my other hard drive was too corrupt to save any of the data, so i had to start from scratch :/
    after about a week or so, my mac gradually starting freezing up more and more, and i was worried because that was the initial problem i had.
    its been about a month and a half since the first freeze, and im sick of it! about 4 or 5 times a day, the thing would just stop everything its doing, and the mac wheel would spin for about 30 seconds or so froze,, and then go back to normal.
    whats confusing is that when im on skype and the mac freezes, i can still talk to the person from voice to voice, but EVERYTHING else just stops lik my itunes and the words im typing.
    SO PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ISSUE ITS KILLING ME!!!!
    i am willing to do anything or even replace my hard drive again just to fix this problem, so please your help would be greatly appreciated!
    THANKS !!!

    thanks for all the help guys!
    my dad (as i am only 15 ) said just to get the hard drive replaced again and thats the easiest for me too because the hard drive is under warranty. so if it happens again, which it likely wont, then ill try this out. otherwise maybe look into a solid state drive, anything to get this back to the way it was haha!
    thanks !

  • Replaced faulty hard drive now can't boot from Snow Leopard.

    Hi there,
    As it says I replaced my internal WD 250gb drive in my late 2006 2.16ghz imac . I followed the tutorials on the net to the tee yet upon trying to boot from Snow Leopard after firing it back up all I get is the Apple logo and the timer . I've tried holding C to no avail . I've held Alt to select the OSX disc yet it still won't boot to get me to Disc Utility . I've even put the old hard drive back in . When I hold Alt on start up it shows the drive and the disc but will boot from neither when selected . I've tried to get the Snow Leopard disc to eject so I can try my originals but it won't even do that . I'm convinced I haven't damaged anything but I'm at my wits end ! Does anybody have any ideas how to get the Leopard disc out so I can at least try from my originals ? The drive I've installed is compatible it's a 1tb WD . I also triple checked all the connections and they all seam sound . Really appreciate your help lads as I wanted to give the iMac to my daughter when we get a new one .

    You will first need to prep the new drive using Disk Utility on the original 10.4 Disc or Retail upgrade 10.6 DVD. It needs to be Partition GUID Partition Table and Format it Mac OS Extented (Journaled) before you can install and run OS X on it.
    1. Boot from your SL install DVD or Bootable Clone and open Disk Utility.
    2. Highlight the new HD in the list of drives and select the Partition tab.
    3. Under Volume Scheme select 1 Partition and click on the Options... button.
    4. Select GUID Partition Table in the drop down window and click OK.
    5. Set the Format to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and click the Apply button.
    6. Once thats done, then you can do a clean Install, Restore from TM or a Bootable Clone.

  • I replaced my hard drive and the entire software is disappered

    I recently found out my hard drive was dead and unable to find when I start-up my computer so I went to the computer reapir shop. They said my computer's harddrive was totally dead so they replaced a new one for me. However, wihtout the software. I still unable to turn on my computer. Anyone could help me with it?

    Anwering a few questins willl help with this process.  What kind of machine do you have and when was it orginally sold?  What did they replace, just the inernal disk?  What OS X operating system were you running?  Do you have a Time Machine backup or other backup?  Did you go to an Apple Authorized Service Provider?  Did this machine come with re-installation CD-ROMs?

  • 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.

    iPhoto 8 (09) and earlier- run the options indicated

The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Moved itunes to external hard drive now library not showing up

    I tried to move itunes to an external hard drive to free up space but now I can't get my library to come up. What do I do?

    Hi, BreezerSB2.
    It sounds like you may not have followed the instructions described in this article in the Apple Knowledge Base.
    If that's not possible - or you don't want to do so - and the music files are in fact on your external drive, you can add them to your iTunes Library by referring to this article 's Add to Library section.
