AppleTV 1st Gen has my entire music library loaded however my iTunes library was lost when my external hard crashed. My question is can I copy the content from the AppleTV 1st Gen back into my iTunes on my iMac?

AppleTV 1st Gen -
I have a rather complex music/movie library system, as well as the ability to listen/watch the content throughout my house thanks to Control4 - extra vegetables and other various 3rd party equipment. I moved my entire music library onto an external hard drive to free up space on my iMac...then my dog got tangled in the cord and pulled the external drive from my desk to the floor destroying the hard drive...(yes I've already attempted to have the content recovered by specialists- no such luck.
My question is... Is it possible to copy the content from the AppleTV 1st Gen back into my iTunes on my iMac? If so step by step directions would be greatly appreciated!
thanks to all
Tom

Thanks very much I have contacted them via this. Just hope they respond quickly- rather annoing! Greatly appreciated though

Ever since I had my screen replaced, my laptop has slowly gone to ****. Half of my songs have been lost, webpages die out, shockwave crashes, and no I can't even sign into my laptop. Who can I contact to get this all fixed?

The default about:home page in Firefox 4 doesn't give such features. You can set the home page to http://www.google.ca to get that possibility. The results page has a "Pages from Canada" link in the side menu at the left.

HT5622 When my daughter got her first iphone we set it up with my email address, she now has her own email & new iphone. I want to use my email address for my icloud, can I delete the content from the icloud account and continue to use my email?

When my daughter got her first iphone we set it up with my email address, she now has her own email & new iphone. I want to use my email address for my icloud, can I delete the content from the icloud account and continue to use my email?

Yes, but be sure she is on a separate iCloud account with a separate ID before deleting anything. Be sure there is nothing that you want to keep on your device too. When you delete the data from iCloud it will be deleted from all devices signed into the account. Then you can delete the data from the existing account by doing the following:
To delete the contacts, go to iCloud.com from your computer, log into your iCloud account and open Contacts, click on All Contacts on the left, to the right click on any single contact to select it, click on the Actions (gear shaped) icon at the bottom left and choose Select All, then press the Delete key on your keyboard.
For Calendars, open the calendar on icloud.com, click Edit on the bottom left, then tap the minus sign to the right of each calendar to delete it.
For Notes, open notes on icloud.com, click on each note on the left, then click Delete at the top to delete it.
For Reminders, open reminders on icloud.com, click on each reminder and press your Delete key to delete it.
For Mail, open your mail on icloud.com, click each folder on the left (such as your inbox), click on a single message to the right, press Control-A on your keyboard to select them all, then press your Delete key. Repeat this for each of your mail folders except Trash. When finished, click on the actions (gear-shaped) icon on the bottom left and select Empty Trash.
If you also want to delete your iCloud backups you can go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage on your device, tap the name of your device under Backups, then tap Delete Backup.

My old computer died just after I transferred iTunes via external HD. When I transferred the content from the HD to the new computer, most songs won't play. Message is "Can't identify source". Sharing was on in the old computer when it died.

How do I transfer all the content from my old 3rd gen to my new 4th gen iTouch, including apps and notes. I replaced an old 2nd gen with the 3rd last year and lost all my contacts and notes.

How do I extract the list from a pop up menu back into Numbers?

Hey guys
I made a few very large lists in pop-up menus in Numbers, and I would like to extract those lists and put them
in a seperate Numbers file.
Is there a way that I can take the lists I made and sort of copy paste them /export them / extract them, so I don't
have to manually copy them?
Thanks in advance!
Derk

Hi Derk,
Numbers doesn't seem to allow access to the values within a Pop-Up Menu, either through the native interface or through AppleScript.
However, if you are using Numbers 3.2 and you have a long column formatted as Pop-Up Menu where you have "used" each the choices in the menu somewhere in the column, then you can collect a list of those values with the script below.
Copy the script into AppleScript Editor.
Select the cells in the body of your column formatted as Pop-Up Menu.
Click the green triangle 'run' button.
Click once in a destination cell in any Numbers document.
Command-v or Edit > Paste & Match Style to paste the list of values.
SG
--places values from cells formatted as Pop-Up onto clipboard for pasting
try
          tell application "Numbers"
                    set t to front document's active sheet's first table whose selection range's class is range
                    set {valuesList, valuesStr} to {{}, ""}
                    tell t's selection range to repeat with aCell in cells
                              if aCell's formatted value is not in valuesList then
                                        copy aCell's formatted value to end of valuesList
                                        set valuesStr to valuesStr & aCell's formatted value & return
                              end if
                    end repeat
                    set the clipboard to valuesStr
                    display notification "Click a cell and command-v to paste." with title "Numbers"
          end tell
on error
          display alert "Did you select cells before running."
end try
--end of script

Installed new osx lion can't copy my photos from the old iPhoto library to the new one..

hey guys hope u can held me ..
when i open the new iphoto libary it says i need to istall an older version of iphoto libary ...

1 - you never "copy" an iPhoto library to any other iPhoto library - exactly what did you do
2 - installiung Lion typically has no effect on iPhoto - you are only upgrading the OS - not the iLife software
Exactly what is the error message - I am not aware of iPhoto ever saying tha tyou need to inatall an older version of anything and it is impossible to ever "install" an iPhoto library - you install the iPhoto application - it creates or converts the iPhoto library
We need to know what version of iPhoto you have and exactly what is said when you launch iPhoto

Wanting to move Lightroom catalogues off my laptop onto an external hard drive but don't want to move them apart from the originals in my library - otherwise I get a ? and missing file

Having trouble moving my LR catalogues off of my laptop because They're attached to the original files stored in my laptop library. If I move the LR catalogues off my laptop, will I risk getting the dreaded "?" and missing files when I reopen the LR cat? Thanks

How do I get my ipod items to go back into my itunes library? When i sync it says if you sync you will erase the contents of my ipod.

My Ipod 60gb has 2600+ Items on it. For some reason my Itunes Library only has 1500+. When I try to sync my Ipod to add new songs it says
if you sync you will erase the contants of your Ipod. Help

Your iPod can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time. If you try to sync it with another library, it will erase the current contents of the iPod and replace them with the contents from the new library.
If you have content you need to copy from your iPod back to your iTunes library, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer discussing the different ways to do this.

I can't get iTunes to list content from the library on my backup HD.

My old G5 crashed but I pulled the hard drive. I've got a mini now and I want iTunes to read the content from the second drive (using a dock). I can pull up one song at a time and it comes up in the Library under Music no problem. But I'd like the Library interface to pick up and read the media directly from that drive. I've tried redirecting under 'Advanced Preferences' but the Music Library doesn't seem to see anything. Any ideas for a computer novice? Thanks.

Hold Option and launch iTunes.
Select Choose library and select the iTunes folder on the external.
