It seems the ability to restore from backup discs was removed along with the ability to create them. You will need to temporarily install an older version of iTunes (e.g. 10.3) to recover the media from those discs.
See Win 7 OS,64 Bit..Going back to ver 10.3 as I wish to use the cdbackup/restore version..I for a previous thread discussing this.

Hi. Can I use a set of backup discs I made in 2010 to restore my iTunes library with the latest version of iTunes?

Hi
I had my iTunes library on an external hard drive which has crashed. The data is unrecoverable. I've now bought a new laptop and I want to rebuild my iTunes library. I found a set of backup discs I created back in 2010 and although they don't represent everything I lost, they do comprise about 75% of the 25,000 songs in my library - so being able to restore using those would save me a huge amount of time.
The only problem is that when I load the disc, iTunes recognises it and even displays the tracks as a list - but I can't seem to find anyway of importing them other than manually importing each folder, which is only marginally better than having to re-import each individual CD again.
Previously when I've used the discs - i.e. the last time I changed laptops - I popped a backup disc in and iTunes automatically restored everything on it.
Is there a way of doing that that I'm missing, or has Apple decided, for whatever reason, to remove that functionality? I've Googled this problem and asked friends who are into Apple (the only Apple product I use is iTunes) but I don't seem to be able to get a clear answer.
Any help appreciated.

Ever since the last iTunes update, my cloud movies and TV purchases all vanished from my iTunes library.

Ever since the last iTunes update, my cloud movies and TV purchases all vanished from my iTunes library. I go to Settings>Store>Show Cloud Purchases, but Show Cloud Purchases isn't there. So, I go to the store, then click on purchases, and I download anything from my iTunes account. Now, I go to Settings>Store>Show Cloud Purchases, and it is back. I check the box, and my cloud purchases are again back in iTunes.
OK, I wouldn't bother posting this, but a day or so later, it all happens again. Cloud purchases gone, no option to fix in the Settings>Store menu until I go to the store and download something again.
How do I get iTunes for Windows to keep showing my cloud purchases without having to do this silly work-around every day or two?

Audiobooks are not avaiable for redownload from iTunes, though I suspect you may find they are still on your computer even if not currently listed in your library. This may help...
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.

HT1498 After entering my password a message comes up that says I can only use this account in th US and returns to sign in screen. I am I the uS . Am I missing something?

After entering my password a message says I can only use account in US. Then returns me to sign in page. How do I rent a movie?

After a great deal of searching I ran across the suggestion to disable all plug-ins and then, one by one, enable them until finally the problem was solved. I am not sure which plug-in was causing the problem, as I am satisfied to have the problem solved. I am going to leave the rest of the plug-in disabled.

Can I use EEM to upload long scripts and run them?`

I asked this question here, on ServerFault, and they guided me to here.
The issue is basic. If I need to run hundreds of al/ag/ng/no commands on a Cisco ASA programmatically, I need to do it via a SSH shell, with the restriction that the ASA will not take a command size greater than 1024 bytes. I take my batch, and find the number of whole lines, as long as they are under 1,000 characters, and send commands like this-effectively "chunking" the batch into smaller pieces. This takes forever.
I am not talking about a replacement config, frequently run commands, or rebooting the AS in any way. I am just talking about making 'hot' modifications remotely via computer program.
I don't know if EEM is the way, but if it can do the following (exactly, or functionally), it is of great interest:
1. A remote client creates a batch file-nothing more than a sequence of commands for the CLI.
2. That batch file makes it's way to the ASA (any number of ways).
3. The commands in the batch are run, in order, as if typed in on the command line.
4. I imagine some sort of feedback would be nice, or even a signal that it is done, etc.
What are your thoughts?
Thank you!
P.S. I am not debating whether it is a good idea or not (unless you have a better way). I am merely asking how it can be done, and if EEM isn't the key, than what else might be?

The ASA doesn't really support EEM. Yes, there is a now a feature called EEM in 9.2, but it is quite limited compared to IOS. In IOS, what you want would be possible, but on the ASA, you'll need to do all of your CLI commands off box using something like Expect. I'm not sure how you're automating this now, but perhaps you are already using Expect. That would be what I'd likely do in this situation.

Can I use mp3 files on my computer and put them on an I pod touch?

I am looking to buy an I pod touch, but I want to know if I can transfer my mp3's from my computer to the I pod. OR do I have to use I Tunes?

You can use your MP3's and you will have to use itunes to sync them.
You will need to put the music in itunes. From there you can sync it to the ipod.

TS1420 I updated my ipod to 5.1.1 and now it wont sync downloaded music onto my ipod. All the music I purchased through itunes went on the ipod during backup restore and my downloaded music went into my itunes library but won't sync onto my ipod.

I updated my ipod touch to 5.1.1 and did a system restore. All of my purchased music from itunes went back on along with photos and apps but now it won't let me sync music that I downloaded. All of my music that was imported from cd's synced but not my downloaded music from internet. They went into my itunes library but they are a light gray and have a little sync symbol next to them. I've tried dragging them into different folders but nothing is working. I read that others were having problems with this update but didn't get any answers.

After you have updated your device to version 5.1.1, have you tried resyncing everything from your iTunes yet?

Can I use Time Capsule as an external HD? In this case to edit movies in FinalCut.

Can I use Time Capsule as an external HD? In this case to edit movies in FinalCut.

Yes, but it depends on the setup if you should or not.. not everything you can do you should do.
Are you connected by ethernet?
If you use wireless this can be super slow.. and also subject to corruption of the file.
You cannot use USB to connect.
If you are using a desktop computer, then an external drive is cheap, fast and reliable.
TM can also backup your work.
Using the TC as external drive.. Time Machine (TM) no longer has the ability to backup your work.. it can use TC as a target only.
How is the TC now setup? Did you want to setup in complete isolation to existing networking? If so how are you going to get network connection to internet etc. ??

Can I use Time Machine to backup to partition on external drive and a Time Capsule?

Trying to plan in advance...
I was wondering if I can (with a laptop) use Time Machine for both:
1. Creating Time Machine backups on a partiion of an external drive. My plan was going to create 2 partitions: one to be used for Time Machine backups of another external hard drive (that holds all of my media) and then the other partition was going to be a bootable clone of my internal drive (totally separate from Time Machine)
and
2. Also use Time Machine for my Time Capsule, to create Time Machine backups of my internal drive.
Is this possible? I had heard that you can't use TM to make backups to a partition on an external drive, AND use it for another drive (like Time Capsule) at the same time. But I would think that this should be possible-
Thanks everyone-

Yes you can, and if you are using Mountain Lion it's easy.
If you are using Snow Leopard (as in your profile - this is the Mountain Lion forum), you have to manually select the backup volume each time. Tedious, but possible.

Can you use time capsule for your mac and have readynas backup your pc's on the same network

Can you use time capsule for your mac and use readynas to back up your pc's on the same network

Sure, that is trivial setup.. they both have different names and IP addresses.
You should be able to use ReadyNas for TM backup but you should check the latest state of play for that.

Can I use Time Capsule only as a WiFi backup disk w/out having to configure it as my main router?

I already have an Airport Extreme that works great. Can I use Time Capsule ONLY as a WiFi backup disk w/out having to configure it as my main router with my Internet modem?

Can I use Time Capsule ONLY as a WiFi backup disk w/out having to configure it as my main router with my Internet modem?
Yes, you have two options here, each with advantages and disadvantages.
Option 1...connect the Time Capsule to your AirPort Extreme using an Ethernet cable connection. Turn off the wireless on the Time Capsule since your AirPort Extreme is already providing wireless.
Advantages...easy to configure, you can backup either over wireless or plug directly into one of the Ethernet ports to backup large files 3-5 times faster than wireless.
Disadvantages...none, except it requires a wired Ethernet connection to the AirPort Extreme.
Option 2....configure the Time Capsule as a wireless only hard drive.
Advantage.....you can locate the Time Capsule anywhere you want as long as it can receive a good wireless signal from the AirPort Extreme.
Disadvantages....harder to configure, backups will occur only over wireless.

Can i use time capsule for back up my movies and watching them with my bravia tv

can i use time capsule for back up my movies and watching them with my bravia tv.
i mean can i use this for external hard disk drive to back up my movies and watching them with tv that has a lan port or wi-fi technology.

Only if the TV is a media player.. the TC is dumb as a board router with a hard disk.. there is no DLNA which I suspect the TV requires.. you can get a player like the WDLive and it will play movie files from the TC to the TV.. remember the TC is nothing but a file store.. no servers .. no nothing.

Can I use Time Capsule for Time Machine and a place to put my iPhoto Library

Can I use Time Capsule for Time Machine and a place to put my iPhoto Library?

Only if you partition the Time Capsure into two partitions, one for TM and one for the iPhoto LIbrary. But you won't be able to backup that library as it will be on the same drive as the TM backups.
It's not recommended. An alternative solution is to get another EHD, move the library to it and run it from there. Then TM can backup both your boot drive and the working EHD drive.
OT
