Do I need to reinstall Logic to get my loops back?

OK, so I don't know how I did it, but apparently I deleted all my Apple Loops.
A long while back I was looking around for free loops, and as far as I can tell, when I downloaded them I must have tossed all the old loops from Logic and Garageband. I didn't notice this until now because I don't use loops much.
So if I want the Apple Loops back do I have to reinstall, or can I get them 'a la carte' from the DVD? I don't want to even put the DVD in if it means I'm going to lose everything I have there now. (channel strips, preferences, etc.)
thanks,
Jim

Based on the fact that I have NONE of the factory loops left I don't think this is what I did. I can't locate certain loops that I know were there with Spotlight, (for instance the Motown drum loops); this leads me to believe that they were put in the Trash. Of course I have emptied the Trash about three or four times a week since I did this many months ago.
What happens if I reinstall Logic? Should I go through and save all of the files that are there now, and then put them back in the right spots later? This seems like a severe pain in the butt, as well as almost guaranteeing a screwup.
thanks,
Jim

    If you still have the receipt or other proof of purchase, you can ask Apple to send you the serial. Otherwise, bad luck mate.. Good news is, you can now buy Logic Pro 9 from App Store for just 199 USD

  • I need to reinstall logic 8 but lost serial number

    I have had to wipe my hard drive and now need to reinstall logic 8 before i install Logic 9 upgrade, but I have lost the serial number for 8. What should I do?

    Hi
    If you intend to upgrade to Logic 9, you should not need to actually install Logic 8 (unless you want to).
    You will need the 8 Serial number in either case if you are using an upgrade installation disk set for Logic Studio (2).
    Apple may be able to help regarding lost serials:

    "Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005?"
    They will only be where you put them  If you are doing the very basics, then they will be on your computer and they will be in your backup copy of your computer.
    The itunes store is not global at all, never has been. You cannot redownload your content from another country.  You can only use the countrys itunes store for the country that you are physically located.

  • Laptop crashed need to know how to get my purchases back

    My computer crashed and I need to know how to get my purchases back. To make matters even better, the media on my phone was deleted even though it was checked off not to sync it. I absoloutely hate itunes with a passion and every day it seems to do something else....this being the most maddening thing I have encountered so far.
    Does anyone know how I can get my music back? Or does apple pretty much have my money and I have nothing to show for it?

    It is basic to maintain a backup.
    Have you failed to do so?

    If you buy a CD from best buy and lose it, do they just give you another?

  • Downloaded new version, replaced old version, now says no space available and won't launch. I need to know how to get old version back

    Usually if I try to download something that is too big a message comes up saying that there's not enough space. This didn't happen when I tried to download the latest version of Foxfire. It asked if I wanted to replace the old version and I did. When it was done, it said 0 bytes available. The icon came up with a circle with a line through it. I get a message that says it cannot be launched. If I go into my finder and click on it it says it is not supported. I need to know if I can get the old version back because I've lost all my bookmarks etc. Unless there is something else I cn do to get it working.

    If you tried to install Firefox 4, it will not run on OS X 10.4 or PPC Macs.
    There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

  • I need to know how to get Firefox 3 back???? My online college course requires me to have that version and I upgraded to 4 without knowing! HELP!

    I upgraded to version 4 and now I am having difficulty with my online college course. They require me to use version 3, and I need to be able to do my classwork. Please help!

    First, make a backup of your computer for safekeeping. To back up Firefox, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
    Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
    Close Firefox 4, and uninstall it. Do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
    Then finally you can reinstall Firefox 3.6. Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, it should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
    Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!

  • Itunes gives error needs to reinstall to burn CD's or back up

    When I open itunes it gives me an error saying it needs to be reinstalled in order to burn CD's or DVD's.  The area to do any back up is just not there anymore

    if you have 64bit os this is problem:
    Any 64-bit version of Windows is not supported so you should expect certain things not to work. From Apple's iTunes page the Windows requirements are:
    32-bit editions of Windows XP or Vista
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later required for Apple TV or iPhone
    500 MHz Pentium class processor or better
    QuickTime 7.1.6 or later (included)
    256MB RAM
    Supported CD-R or DVD-R drive to burn CDs
    Broadband Internet connection (DSL/Cable/LAN) for buying and streaming music

  • Window Reinstall -- can I get my music back?

    I had to reinstall windows on my computer. Is there any way I can get my music I purchased off iTunes back without paying for it again. I know I should have backed it all up, but I didn't think this was going to happen. I'd appriciate any help. Thanks!

    The policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
    "Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
    You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on any of the links on this page you'll find a space at the bottom to email your query: iTMS Customer Service

  • Trying to reinstall iTunes and get my music back...

    Hello, everyone... my username is "quillian86" and I'm new to these parts.
    So, down to business...
    Recently, I got my computer back after it crashed and had to be restored, so now I have to reinstall iTunes and put all my music back on my computer.
    I'm already signed up to Apple using this particular email address (from the first time I installed iTunes on this particular laptop); do I have to sign up for it when I have to download it all over again? I already have an account there.
    Also, even though all the music was wiped clean off my computer itself, I still have all the music on my iPod. I've heard that there are programs to make it work in reverse, and have the music on the iPod be loaded onto iTunes. What programs are these? It would REALLY save me the trouble of burning everything to my computer all over again!
    Sincerely,
    Quillian

    Just use your backup copy to put the music back on the computer. This is why backups are a basic.
    You do not need another account. You can continue to use your same itunes account.
    You can do a forum search for software/methods to move music from a ipod. This is addressed every day here.
    Zevoneer does a great job explaining the options.
    The forum search bar is on the right side of this page.
    Hope everything works out.

  • Getting message about having LR5 already open SO I need to know how to get my pictures back-after export.

    Hi,
    I have been working on photo's and doing the export the laptop freezes up on me, so I have to shut down everything and re-open.  When I go to open LR5 back up I get an error message saying that there is LR already open and that I have to open a new folder - Since I have editing all (about 900 pictures) - is there a way of getting those back Instead of having to RE-DO all of them.  Which is what I am **** right now and it is VERY hard for me.
    I would Love to get a answer on how I can get the photo's back instead of having to re-do all of them again.  THIS has happening a few times to me now and I don't like it.
    I hope that this makes sense - I would just love an answer..

    okay Error message is as follows - pop up window has confirm on the top of
    it.  The lightroom catalog named "Lightroom 6 Catalog" cannot be opened
    because another applications already has it opened.  Button Choose a
    different catalog, Continue or exit.  I have hit all the buttons before and
    the ONLY thing that works is to Choose a different catalog and open a new
    one?
    Might I be able to get my originals photo's back??  the ones that I have
    edited already???
