Backing Up. (Pain up the you know wat).

i backed up my ipod and and restored it (fixed now old prolem) but the back up didnt contain any of my apps of my music so were are they????? Super annoyed.

An iPod backup (and the same goes for other iOS devices) does not contain music nor the apps themselves - it contains app settings, data and in-app purchases amongst other things (this articles includes the full list of what is included http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766). Did you not already have your apps and music in iTunes on your computer ?
If you havn't got your apps on your computer then you can re-download them for free (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519) - they need to be on your computer if you want to restore from the backup. If you havn't got your music on your computer then you can restore them from your computer's backup (media purchases cannot be re-downloaded without re-paying).

  • I can't publish my project to a CD using Director 11 on my 10.9.5 system.  Do I need to upgrade again?  If so this is getting to be a pain in the you know what.

    I can't get anyone to respond on using chat.  It sucks not to be able to connect with a real person anymore.

    Hello mjh,     (I hope this is of some help!)
    I had Director 11.5 running on 10.9.5 (Mavericks) before I upgraded it to 12
    It was working fine
    But I read in your question that you are running Director 11, not 11.5
    I do remember that D11 had a few issues
    Can you please explain your problem with some more details…
    do you get an error?
    does it crash?
    can you publish anything (a dcr?)
    what are your publish settings?
    are you running a trial version?
    things like that - thanks
    regards
    Milky

  • TS4124 Hi, do you know how can I upload inelegible songs from itunes to Icloud. They are songs added from original CDs. Another question would be how can I transfer all the music I have in my Ipod Classic to my Itunes or ICloud as I want to back it up.

    Depends on why it's ineligible.  If it's under 96 Kpbs, try right-clicking on the file and choosing Create AAC Version.  (If you don't see this option, go to iTunes>Preferences, click "Import Settings..." then choose "Import Using: AAC Encoder" and "Setting: iTunes Plus".)  Then rescan your library to see if this version will add to iTunes Match.  Or, after changing your import setting, just re-import the song to your iTunes library.
    If the song is over 200 MB you would have to reduce it's size to make it eligible.

  • How do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full

    how do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full.. HELP!

    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.

  • My iphone came up with that timing circle and just turned off and did not come back on ? even when i charge it now it still wont turn on ,do you know the problem?

    my iphone came up with that timing circle and just turned off and did not come back on ? even when i charge it now it still wont turn on ,do you know the problem?

    If the battery was empty (and it may then take 10 to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

  • Is there anyway I can use my iPod Touch serial number or Apple ID to trace and find back my iPod Touch? Cause I lost it recently(as you know iPod Touch can only go online if there is WiFi). is there any other ways too, apart from contacting the police?

    No.
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    iCloud: Find My iPhone
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

    What exactly did your friend do ? Did you or he take a backup of your iTunes library before updating your computer ? Have you checked to see if your music is still on your computer ? By default your iTunes library is stored under :
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\
    Windows Vista: \Users\username\Music\iTunes
    Windows 7 and Windows 8: \Users\username\My Music\iTunes
    If it's there then you can add it to your iTunes library via File > Add To Library.
    If not then do you have a copy of your library on a backup ? If you do then use File > Add To Library to add it back.
    If you haven't got a backup then you might, depending upon what country that you are in and if the music is still in your country's store, be able to redownload your iTunes purchases via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.

    Apple provides repeat downloads as a convenience, not a substitute for your computers being the primary source of file transfers.  All your iTunes information such as playlists, ratings, etc. are in a file on your computer, not in the Apple Store.  Typically when you move computers you copy the whole iTunes folder and everything it contains to the new computer.  Moving media files can be done with a drive, or by Home Sharing.  You can also redownload media but let's say somebody desiced Apple may no longer sell a certain album; it cannot be downloaded again but if you already have it on a computer you can move your copy of the file.
    5 authorizations:  Some households have multiple computers.  If you want ot use one with an account it has to be authroized.  It means you can use any computer in the house to make purchaes, etc.
    Okay, my 5 minute typing limit for any one response is up.

  • Hello guys! Do you know how to make a video smaller on imovie? Not by size or trim, i mean simply show the video as small as possible in the middle of the screen! Please text back.

    Hello guys! Do you know how to make a video smaller on imovie? Not by size or trim, i mean simply show the video as small as possible in the middle of the screen! Please text back.

    Go to the Map, Background & Animatic Browser (last button in the centre tool bar alongside the Transition button). Drag the Black background (or any background) to your project. From an Event, drag the video selection directly onto the Black clip in the project. As you drop the video clip, a pop-up menu will appear. Select Picture in Picture.
    Your video will appear as a small picture within the black clip. Click on it and reposition it to the centre of the viewer, using the yellow guide lines to get the exact centre position. Resize the Picture in Picture if desired by dragging the corner handles.
    NOTE: You may need to extend the duration of the Black clip to match the duration of the video clip. Double-click on the Black clip to open the Inspector, then adjust the duration there.

  • Did you know that TM's browser will NOT back up your sent E-mail messages?

    In Apple Mail anyway.
    Since Verizon Yahoo! password fiasco, I decided just re-do my Verizon E-mail account. Figuring if I lost messages that I could bring the messages back in TM's browser.
    I lost all my sent messages. I thought okay I'm going to enter my TM's browser and bring them back. However you can't do it for strange reason, the browser only has the NOW going. The pass is greyed out.
    I know I should try the hard backup with Leopard's CD, but that's a pain in the butt. Besides I've saved a few E-mails since then too.
    My main point is that I thought that TM's browser could restore EVERYTHING on my Mac. I've gotten a little sloppy since TM figuring that I had a good and fast backup system.
    If TM's browser doesn't backup everything then Apple needs to tell us what it doesn't back up.

    Here is a list of things TM excludes by default:

  • What are the sign to look for if you think the macbkpro has water damage???

    I had a small amoung of water soak throught my case, were the water reached the corner of the top side were the back of the computer is when it is open and want to know what the signs of water damage are so that I can look for them, only about 3/2.5 inches was with water of this corner. Would I have probelems right away if it was water damage????help please

    "only about 3/2.5 inches was with water of this corner.?
    How much is that in plain speak?
    Spill Cleaning
    And, don't think that just because it was two teaspoons and not a glassful that there is a difference.
    Some liquid has just spilled into your Mac. What should you do?
    Do
    Immediately shut down the computer and unplug the power cord.
    Remove the computer's battery (if you can)
    Disconnect any peripherals (printers, iPods, scanners, cameras, etc.)
    Lay the computer upside down on paper towels to get as much liquid as possible to drip out.
    Note what was spilled on your Mac.
    Bring the computer into an Apple store or AASP as soon as possible.
    Don't
    Don't try to turn it back on. Liquids can help electrical current move about the components of your Mac in destructive ways.
    Don't shake the computer (this will only spread the liquid around).
    Don't use a hair dryer on it (even at a low setting a hair dryer will damage sensitive components).
    Do not put in a bag of rice in as much as rice will get into the ports and optical drive and do further damage.

  • Need multiple 'MAIL' Icons.   Have two mail accounts and i want to keep them separate but want to EASILY switch back and forth from the main screen instead of going through, Settings, Mail, and selecting account. Major pain

    Have two mail accounts and i want to keep them separate but want to EASILY switch back and forth from the main screen instead of going through, Settings, Mail, and selecting account. Major pain the butt.  This has been a request from Apple users for many years.    it's great you can now combine all emails into one, but some people want them kept separate and have separate icons on the main page.   They could easily do this by having one "MAIL" account as white and another red.  Or put MAIL 1 and MAIL 2.    Or an actual label that the mail accounts are called on the ICONS!!  
    Help!

    ...I could switch back and forth between accounts while in the mailbox, with one button.  I think that is what you are referring to?  Whoever said it's just a simple switching - you obviously haven't had the pleasure of using an Android device.  It's not that quick to go back and forth - definitely not efficient...
    Not that it matters a lot, Android vs iPhone interface is largely a matter of personal preference and what you know... I'm not sure which one you're saying is not efficient...
    In any event...
    I currently have two email accounts setup.  My iPhone main page Mailbox settings reads:
    Mailboxes
    Inboxes
    All Inboxes
    Gmail
    [email protected]
    Accounts
    Gmail
    [email protected]
    I wish there an efficient way to move back and forth while in the "Inbox" between accounts.  Also, Why does one gmail account show as "Gmail" and another as the actually address?
    The names are based on the names you gave the accounts when you set them up.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap the account you want to re-name. Go to the "Description" field and put in what ever you want.
    Second, there is no way to quickly choose a bunch of emails to delete. I have to manually go into each one and move it to the Trash folder.
    If you tap the edit button in the upper right while in mail, you can select multiple items to move, delete or mark (flag).
    I don't want any of the condescending remarks, that I've read here and in other forums.  I'm honestly looking for a solution, which I think you are too!  One thing I realized is that iPhone users in these forums are really defensive and quick to say "that's how it is, live with it, if you don't like it go away"  Um...the only thing that tells me is you are pretty bitter and have kept telling yourself that, to force yourself to like your device.  I prefer to express my issues, and find solutions.  There is ALWAYS a solution...
    I think what you will find is that many people here, myself included, tend to get a bit short with people who start off with attacks or whining about how something has been asked for for years and should be easy, rant about things that have already been beaten to death multiple times in the forums, talk about how much better Android or BB are at something (really... if it's that much better, why did they buy an iPhone to begin with?), etc., or continue to ask questions that could easily be answered with a simple search, or even just by looking back at the last dozen posts to the forum, half of which probably asked the EXACT SAME question.
    I don't think any of us go out of our way to be rude or uncivil.  That said, attacking the people who are attempting to help you is much more likely to generate a response of 'if you don't like it, go away', than it is to generate something that will be truly helpful.

  • Did they take out the free section, you know where they might offer a free episode/song/video/etc in one spot (or at least did they for Canada)? I can find the english song of the week, but that is it...

    Nevermind. For some reason it loaded wrong/poorly/? It was back after I closed itunes down and re-opened it.
