Restore the media and other important files from the backup of the computer.

My laptop had to be reset to factory settings. prior to that i had all my itunes songs stored on a portable drive. how do i get itunes to recognize the drive as its library?

If the library file is on the external drive, hold <SHIFT> while launching iTunes. When it prompts to select a library file or create a new one, point it to the location of the library file.
If the library file was on the internal harddrive, easiest solution is to restore it from the backup. If no backup exists, use File > Add Folder to library. Also under Edit > Preferences > Advanced, change the library location unless you want iTunes to move the media to the internal drive.

I have no idea if it would work but you may want to try using the iPad camera connect kit with the USB stick.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try unplugging the Apple Tv and restarting and restating your router. You should also check that the Apple Tv is set to use the correct location.

I have a DVD stuck in the drive, how can i get it out

how can i get a disc that is stuck in my drive out?

Restart. Hold down the mouse or trackpad button at the chime until the disc ejects. If that doesn't work, it's physically stuck.

HT203167 lost my hard drive how can i get songs from ipod back to new computer

I lost my hard drive and want to get my music back on my new computer. How can I get songs from my ipod to my computer? I am afraid to sync it and losing what is on my ipod. Any help would be appreciated.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from your ipod: File>Transfer Purchases

I've moved my iTunes media to a new drive, how do I get iTunes to find it. I'm using Windows 7

Hi,
I've moved my iTunes media to my 'spare' internal D Drive, following the instructions on this link:(I'm using Windows 7).
Move your iTunes Media folder on a Windows PC - Apple Support
I hit a problem at stage 11 when I had to move my original media file to the recycle bin. The process started then it stopped, saying that the file was too big for the recycle bin (54 GB or thereabouts). It then asked if I wanted to permanently delete the files instead. I said yes. (I have them backed up externally).
The iTunes media file is in my D Drive, but I can't get iTunes to locate it. I've tried going through preferences/advanced and browsing to it but that does't seem to work.
My media is all listed in iTunes, but on the cloud rather than on my hard drive (C). Downloading it all from the cloud would defeat the object of freeing space on my primary hard drive (C).
Any ideas on how I could get iTunes to find the files on D Drive ?
many thanks,
Matt

See Make a split library portable. With luck you should be able to move the iTunes folder to the D: drive, place the iTunes Media folder inside it, and shift-start iTunes to connect to D:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl. If all goes well it should be as if you'd moved the entire iTunes folder as a unit in the first place.

I got a message that I should download an upgrade to Firefox 3.6.16. So I hit the download button and it said "Downloading the update" and "Connecting to the udate server". And it gets stuck there. How can I get past it?

I have an iMac OS 10.4. I downloaded Firefox a while ago and I had no real problems with it. Then I got this message that I should update Firefox to 3.6.16. So I hit the "Download" button and I get the "Software Update" which says "Downloading the update" with a progress bar and below it , it says "Connecting to the download server". But it gets stuck there. The progress bar has gone to the end of bar. How can I get hooked up to the Update server?

That is because that Firefox 3.6.x version has been released later than the Firefox 4 version.
If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

I have had a new ram module fitted and now i have no photos in I photo but they are there on the hard drive how do I get them into i photo as they were.

I have a 2008 Macbook and have had a new ram module fitted and now i have no photos in I photo but they are there on the hard drive on mackintosh ,photos how do I get them into i photo as they were.

changing the ram has nothing to do with the photos missing. Did you install the ram or someone else?

Upgraded to yosemite and lost a hard drive; how do i get it back?

How do I get a hard drive recognized that was left off after upgrading to Yosemite?

I wouldn't recommend trying to go back to leopard.
So you have a PowerMac or Mac Pro and multiple internal drives?
All your other drives show up?
Was it an older drive? formatted in any particular way?
If you have an external drive case and another mac, you might be able to try that, and see if it spins up. Or just boot up with the door off and try to feel if there's vibration on that drive.
You could look for trials of Data Rescue, Disk Warrior, Data Recovery Wizard ... and see if these applications will list the drive. They can look at a lower level what is connected to the system than disk utility gives access to. Tough call though without anything showing in disk utility suggesting the drive is still alive but gotten corrupted.
If you know a mac tech, probably not a bad idea to give them a call and see what they advise that you could try yourself. Chances are though that he/she/they just want you to drop if off suspecting a failing drive.

HT5085 I have purchases (music )that is on ipad and plays but is not in ibary on pc as I changed hard drives - how can i get them back to libary to play on pc and sync ipad without losing them ?

I have purchased music that is on ipad and plays but is not in libary on pc as i cleared hard drive to portable backup ?how can i get back ? and sync ipad without losing it al ?

SADLY not as i downloaded an upgrad to my original PAGES/
i have in the meantim had to open www.icloud. then from there import the file that i am working on and then check on ipad if it uploaded/ yes it did.
but what a waste of time as it doesn not save any changes done automatically back in the cloud....
i am now downloading the new LION and hope that it will fix the problem
i cant find any other way. I was lead to believe that you wrote, it saved automatically, on to the cloud, you then opened anohter device in anotother country even, and the new file was there, waiting, in its latest version.......
and the same magic was supposed to happen in reverse.
It doesn't/
if i have to open a browser, go to www.icloud....why on earth did they not just leave us an icon to drop it in in that case?
I hope the new lion will help resolve the isssue/
any other ideas> keep em coming...thank you so much.
