Connecting old Harddisk to PB after it was changed

Hi!
I am trying to connect my old Harddisk to my Powerbook G4, 1,67 Ghz.
I had to change Drives recently and now i want to download my old Data to my PB.
I am connecting it with an 2,5" IDE to USB Adapter to my PB.
But it won't be shown in the Finder.
I suppose there isn't enough Power from the USB to start up the Harddisk.
Funny enough if i connect it to a PC-Laptop it will start.
Any Help is appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
If the adapter does not have a separate power connection, a self-powered USB hub could possibly be of help here.
If absolutely necessary, a PC could be used as an intermediary for document files (but a special utility, such as TransMac or MacDrive, would be needed in order to read the Mac-formatted disk).

Windows 2012 Master FSMO DC lost connection to other DC's after DNS was lost

Hi. I'm hoping someone has a resolution to my issue. I've recently added a new VMware Windows 2012 DC server to replace an existing DC1 Server with a memory leak. I also successfully added the Master FSMO roles to this new server and renamed
the server to DC1. I did at least 6 checks that the replication was successful with DC2 before rebooting. However, upon rebooting I discovered that the DNS tables in DC2 were incomplete. Once the DNS was restored the VM's were working fine
however, now it appears that DNS and DHCP are fine but the FSMO roles on DC1 and connection to DC2 are no longer working. I've tried running ntulis, and netdom with no success. I'm afraid until I get the connection back to the network and the FSMO
roles re-established finishing the renaming of this domain controller may be premature. Any advise at this point would be great as I'm unsure whether or not to abandon this server and start from scratch or try to salvage the work I've already put in.
Following is the error I get when running dcdiag.

I'm not sure I follow your renaming steps. But, I think the issue might be that your clients are still pointing to the IP address of the original DC1. Therefore, any DNS record updating would not be directed to the IP address of your
new DC1. Clients tend to rely on fixed IP addresses to find the DNS server, not a DNS name, which would be a bit of a catch-22.

It appears what happened is the installer though it was looking at a empty drive and just went ahead and installed.
I of course am assuming here you didn't use Disk Utility to format the drive first before installing, that would wipe out your files and programs for sure.
So what to do, what to do.
Well there is hope for you as long as the drive wasn't Filevaulted.
I'll explain. When a hard drive writes data for the first time to a drive, it starts at the very top and works it's way down.
When OS X was installed the first time, it was at the top of the drive, unless you upgraded then the upgraded OS X could have been written elsewhere.
Now when you just reinstalled OS X, the new OS went on the top of the drive, overwriting any data that was there previously, so what was there you have lost forever which is about 8GB or so. If it was the previous OS there, then your more in luck because only the old OS X was overwritten.
The remaining space on the drive still can have a copy of your files, provided it's not overwritten yet.
It's because when a hard drive deletes data or reformats, it doesn't remove the data off the drive or overwrites it immediately, it's just made so it's SPACE is available for new files to be written there.
So technically one can recover the deleted data off a non-encrypted/scrubbed hard drive with special software.
The way it does this is it reads the 1's and 0's of the files themselves, and through a lot of figuring out, can tell what that file is and what it belongs too.
So what you will have to do is this:
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
or if you don't have the skills, then take it to a local PC/Mac tech and they can do a direct image of the drive and then you can run Data Rescue on it to rebuild your files.

How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed and you don't know what it is now?

How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed by the former husband and you don't know what it is now? And you set up your own new ID and account but can NOT access the updates, from the App store for the many apps that you already have, because they require that you sign in with that former now inaccessible ID and account and password? Call it a problem of modern times and changing relationships, if you want to be charitable.

So I guess it will only be new apps that I download that are allowed to give me their updates while 13 updates wait for me on an ID I can no longer access.
Yes... sorry.
In the future, if need be, you can re download your purchases for free > Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Good rule of thumb is to back up your purchases regardless > Mac App Store: Backing up your app purchases

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.

HT1414 How can I retrived my old files after iOS was restored by 1 of the apple store?

How can retrived my old files, games and pictures after iOS was loaded?

Restore off of your computer, and set up your phone off your previous back-up.

I can't activate my phone after reformatting it. My old appleID can't unlock the phone after it was been hacked and erase information inside

I am having dilemma after reformatting my iPhone 5 and I can't get through the re-activation page. It requires me to log-in using my old apple ID which I abandoned 2 years ago after it was been hacked. Apparently, I was able to retrieve my old Apple ID and iCloud, however, the purchased items, downloaded apps, the linked device ("find my iphone app" to link) and other information were wiped out. I reset the password several times to see whether it helps, but still shows error message "Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this phone".
Any advices and help to get through?

Also I have not done anything to the phone ever since I bought it, so I assume that it's locked?

HT201365 Stolen iPhone 5 but installed Find My Phone after it was stolen and bought new phone. Can locate old phone.

My iPhone 5was stolen but unfortunately I installed the find my phone app after it was stolen and now have another iPhone. I can still track my stolen iPhone on my iPad and it is in my neighborhood but I can't exactly knock on the door and demand it back. If I play the sound and send messages they appear on my new phone, however. If I can't get my old phone back I want to make it impossible for the new user to operate it. I have erased all the data on the old phone to the best of my knowledge. I don't want to erase it as I'm scared all the data on my new phone will be erased.please help. I am in Indonesia.

But did you enable Find My iPhone in settings on your stolen phone before it was stolen? If you didn't, you can't track it or do anything else using Find My iPhone.

How are you doing that if you didn't enable Find My iPhone on it before it was stolen? Are you sure you aren't tracking your new phone rather than your old one?
If I play the sound and send messages they appear on my new phone
That's an indication that you are tracking your new phone, not your old one.

My wireless mouse for my iMac keeps loosing connection. Started after I was having problems with computor not waking up and I put the the setting to "never". Anyone having same problem?

My wireless mouse for imac keeps loosing connection. Started after I was having truoble with computor not waking up and I put the setting to "never sleep". Any suggestions?

If it's an Apple mouse, make it "Favorite" in Bluetooth preferences.
If it's not, the same thing might help, too, but if the problem continues it could be a driver issue (possible incompatibility with your OS X version).

I have Iphone3G - my email address was changed automatically to an old address after an software upload -- how can I get the correct email back?

When I first purchased my phone in January I had an email address of [email protected] but found that the phone and comline weren't talking to each other so I set up email [email protected] and everything worked perfectly -- calendar, e-mail, etc. Last week a message appeared on my phone instructing me to upload new software. My [email protected] for icloud was replaced my the old email address. The account was locked so I went to iforgot.apple, etc and reset it. Then I took the option to change the email and on the computer all looks correct but my phone still has my old e-mail. I've turned it off and on hoping the new info would be loaded but no luck. Any ideas?

I kind of agree with Philly on this one. If you get a new email address, there is no need to establish an entirely new account to use that address. You just need to modify your account to show the new email address. This way all your purchase history and rights to purchased apps stays in place. Creating a new iTunes/Apple account each time your email address changes really doesn't make sense in my opinion. I only point this out for future searchers who end up on this thread.

How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme? My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured" and my AirPort tool on my PC will not permit me to add my new Airport Extreme network (no network names to choose from)

How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme?
I have a PC running with Win7 and just replaced my Jensen With a brand New Airport Extreme.
I have set up the Airport Extreme to the internet, Iphones and Ipads and it work as it should.
I have downloaded latest Version of Airport tool on my PC. In addition i have downloaded the airport tool for Ipad.
I have reset one of my airport Express and it now shows up both on the Ipad and on the PC airport tool.
My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured."
I have wired the airport Express to my Ethernet to be able to "see it" on my Airport tool.
My AirPort tool on the PC will not permit me to add the airport Express to my new Airport Extreme network (no network names on the drop-down list to choose from). I wished for an easy set-up, but nothing seems to be plug and play as the Commercial says.. can you please help me?
Sigve

Hi
Thanks for Swift reply.
Yep - I in fact have two A1088 and one A1264
I actually bought the new router because the Jensen
router always lost connection to the Airport Express after some hours or days. I
always needed to restart my Jensen to play music and that was driving my wife
mad. The hope was that the Extreme should fix this. Both A1088 have been set up
to only stream music to two of my stereo amplifiers from my PC’s Itunes library.
Are the A1088 now useless?
The A1264 has been set up to feed internet into a Denon Reciever that needed Ethernet cable.
Please advise
Regards
Sigve

Connect Old Laserjet 4 to New Linksys Router Using JetDirect J2552a

I have an old LaserJet 4 with an old JetDirect J2552a card that cannot take the firmware update. I was somehow able to use it on the network, but another device has taken 192.168.1.100 and it will no longer work. Any suggestion? Something that I can buy?

For further troubleshooting. I found the solution (Google is your friend).
It looks like for the Linksys E4200 (and others as well) VMM must be enabled to make some chipsets (Intels and Apple are mentioned) able to connect using 802.11n. VMM in actived under QOS settings on the E4200 unit.
After this was done, all works ok.

HT5622 After both (1) changing the password for my Iphone 4S and now (2) loading latest system for it (and restoring when Itunes said I must) it will no longer restore all the apps I bought with the old password. How to get them please?

After both (1) changing the password for my Iphone 4S and now (2) loading system 6.1.3 for it (and restoring when Itunes said I must)
- Itunes it will no longer restore all the apps I bought with the old psasword.
How to get them please?
===========================
Sorry - no - all well, they seem to be all coming back - back just after I put this question.
Mysterious to me but very satisfactory.
Profile doubtless that of an ignoramus.

Ok, so I was able to find one but the one i'm most diappointed is the "free music" app i purchased and it had hundreds of songs that i didn't put on my desk top to save. So just so we're clear, I cannot get that app back again with all my songs if it wasn't in the "purchased" place?
Also,
my husband has a iphone 4 and i've been trying to connect it to our Garmin GPS through bluetooth. Now both devices recognize it but once a call is made or received, nothing goes through the GPS. I've had it working before but it was before a couple of upgrades. It is currently on ios7.2 upgrade. Is that why it won't work?
Thanks
