Converted to Dynamic disc in error - how can I get it back to basic?
I have created a system image onto a external HDD
I have not yet created a system repair disc as I understand this can only be done once and I didn't want to do it at the wrong time
Can I format the HDD back to basic then copy the disc image, or won't this work as the disc image is of a dynamic disc?
If I create a system repair disc of the dynamic HDD will I be able to use it if I take the HDD back to basic?
Thanks
(kicking myself for clicking on the wrong box to convert to dynamic!!)
See this article, be sure your data is backed up First. See #2 if is still bootable, #3 if it is Not bootable

Help anyone please
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic book (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iBook store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iBook store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iBook store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen after you tap the store button in the top corner of the iBook app on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer. -

I updated my Macbook, and All of my apple desktop pictures were deleted. How can I get them back?, I updated my Macbook, and All of my apple desktop pictures were deleted. How can I get them back?
Oh!
First thing I think would be to do a search for the folder in case it's somehow got moved.
Failing that, you can retrieve the folder from your original installer disc using Pacifist.
Insert the disc (don't boot from it) and open the installer package with Pacifist. Navigate to the Desktop Pictures folder (might be a bit more fiddly to find in the package structure). When you find it, select the folder, right-click (or ctrl-click) and select 'install in default location' from the context menu.
Exit Pacifist and eject the disc.
Best of luck! -
Upgraded to 10.6.1.7 as prompted and now cannot see any music purchased since March 23, 2012. How can I get these back?
The error message says it cannot find the file but it exists as it was transferred to my ipod.
Thanks.Ack! We don't need that much.
What you posted looks like the iTunes Library.xml file I will let you read about how iTunes works but not only is the .xml not your main library it is just the listing of tracks in your library and where the music files should be located. Your music is actually in media files (by the way, it is pointless to zip those as they are already compressed). Anyway, read these and you will see that your true library file (iTunes Library.itl) is only a small, but still important, part of a complete library.
What are the iTunes library files? - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660

Where are my iTunes files located? - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
As you can see, a library has several components, so "getting it back" depends upon what is missing, what it was you actually backed up in the end, if any of this music was purchased from the iTunes Store, etc. -

Hi
Welcome To Lenovo Community
I presume that you have got preinstalled windows 7 System, Which you upgraded to Windows 8 now you have downgraded to windows 7. I have few questions & suggestion
How you downgraded to windows 7 using Recovery System or using windows OEM Disk
I am presuming that you have used the OEM disk, I would suggest you to use the OKR feature to restore to factory default by press F11 button during Post i.e.. When Lenovo Logo is displayed and follow onscreen instructions
Have you created a set of recovery media? If yes you can use these to recovery your system
Note: Before using above steps please ensure you have backed up your data
Hope This Helps
Cheers!!!

I have a MacBook in Japan. I had to reinstall my system using an older version of the disc that came with my computer because I was locked out and now I can't get back any of my purchased applications, not any of the software updates. On my account it shows the purchases. How can I get them back? None of the websites, such as iTunes seem to explain that...
Thank you in advance,

Photoshop elements 9 was pre installed on my pc when I bought it and now it has been deleted, I don't have any serial number. How can I get it back?
Check the papers that came with your PC or the web site of the vendor. OEM versions are either on the recovery discs they provide or can be downloaded from their site.

I just upgrade the OS X from 10.9.1 to 10.9.2. After upgrade, the help file is not available. How can I get it back?
Look above at my original post:
Downgrade Mavericks to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer
loads select your language and click on the Continue
button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the
Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the
mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status
of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then
the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART
info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on
the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions
from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS
Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the
partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on
the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups made while on Snow Leopard, then you may do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion/Mountain Lion files. -
I accidently unistalled my office apps. How can I get them back??
I accidently uninstalled my office apps. How can I get them back?
Hi Deanne,
When you deleted the apps, did you also empty the trash bin. IF NOT, It could be possible to move the apps back from the trash bin to your applications folder and your done. Otherwise do you possibly have a backup of your computer on time machine or other 3rd party backup software?
If you don't have a backup and you emptied your trash bin, the simplest way to reinstall is to use the reinstall disc and then run all the updates again.
Good Luck,

Ok more deatails, i bought a MBP 13' early 2011 model and it came it ilife 2011 on it. when i upgraded to lion it was there and then one day the hard drive gave out on me so i had to erase it completely and reinstall lion. when i did that i didnt have i life 2011 as expected so how can i get that back? would the Application install disc that came in the box work?
You can most certainly try running the bundled app installer off the 10.6 machine specific disks, however I think it's going to barf on you.
You then use Pacifist from CharlesSoft to extract your god given right to free iLife and place it back onto your 10.7 drive, run the update and it should get updated.
