Graphics driver crashing on new MBPr 15" w/ discrete graphics.

I bought the 15" MBPr w/ discrete graphics card a few days ago and installed Windows 7 via boot camp. Everything was working initially but my graphics drivers began crashing repeatedly. I restarted my computer which stopped it for a while. In this time I did things from school work to play video games without any problems. The next day after starting it up again the drivers began crashing over and over again. Has anyone else had this issue? I tried updating the graphics driver but received an error saying the card i

I think we're all using Windows 7 x64. As you are an empolyee of HP, will you give us an overview of how HP is handling this problem (if they even are)?

Drive crashed-have new hard drive, how to load music so Itunes can find it?

My system crashed, had everything backed up on an external. I am using an I: drive (it is a different and larger hard drive), vs. the original C: drive that crashed. What is the best way to load back my music so Itunes can recognize the songs and playlists. I have the most recent I tunes's library and music library saved. Is there another file that stores the original addresses to the songs? They are mostly mp3 files.
When I loaded the songs, I can only individually point to the new song. Do I have to copy the songs back to the C drive and then phsically move? Or can I somehow point it to my new my music folder? I have over 10,000 songs and quite a few playlists, so I don't want to do it manually.

I need help in restoring data recovered from hard drive crash to new hard drive

I have the data that was recovered by a recovery service (long story) from my wife's hard drive after it crashed, which is now stored on my computer. There are two user data sets that have been recovered, one for each of us. I need to put each on my wife's computer with its new hard drive, which now has OSX 10.10.? (Yosemite) on it.
My wife's computer was running OSX 10.7 (Lion) when the hard drive failed and my computer is still running OSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).
I was told that I should use the Data Transfer Utility (starting my computer up while holding the "T" key), but I have forgotten what I have to do when I start up her computer. Are there any operating system compatibility problems that are sensitive to this process?

That is a Microsoft Windows question?? You should probably ask this question on Microsoft's Forums. BTW there is no "Windows 9". Only Windows 7, Windows 8 and apparently MS is skipping the number 9 in favor of 10.

HT1420 Hard Drive crash, installed new drive, can't de-authorize, iTunes thinks it is a new PC. Any ideas?

I recently had a new HDD installed in my PC. Obviously iTunes thinks this is a new PC now becuase of a fresh OS install. How can I de-authorize the PC iTunes recognizes so I can authorize PC with new HDD? I am at my 5 device limit. (I am running Windows Vista 64)

Try individually deauthorizing it even if iTunes thinks it isn't authorized. If that doesn't work, use the Deauthorize All function.

Old hard drive crashed, cannot get iTunes to find files

Hi,
Please help. Been working on this for weeks and can't get it right. Am at my wit's end:
Old hard drive crashed; had new one installed. Tech person was able to find my iTunes on old drive and saved to thumbdrive. Downloaded most recent software and synced iPod - it "read" some of what was on it but would not play anything. tried to consolidate libraries/import from thumbdrive, then could view my whole library, but when I try to play any song it says it cannot locate the original file - does not matter if i purchased it from iTunes or added from CD. This computer is authorized, I've tried all the other "tutorials," added files (didn't work), tried using my iPod to xfer music to new computer - didn't work. I have my old hard drive booted and ready to go, can see the files and have copied them direct from drive to drive, still didn't work (followed the directions to keep music folder organized, etc.) What am I doing wrong?? I can't use my iTunes at all - just downloaded three new songs and that's all I can play from it. iPod itself seems unaffected.
Thanks!! - [email protected]

Hi, you said you still have access to your old hard drive.
Can you move the entire itunes folder from the old to the new?
Not just the 'itunes music' folder - you need the parent folder of that.
It has an important file named itunes library.itl that holds ratings, play counts and the paths to your music files.
Copy that entire itunes folder and all its subfolders over to the new PC.
Press *and hold* the shift key while starting itunes and choose the ITL file you just copied over.

I need to install photoshop cs4 extended from a disk to a new computer because my old computer had a hard drive crash. There is no serial number on the back of the case. How can I obtain a usable serial number?

Find your serial number quickly
You can activate software without following up and registering it... at least that was the case in the past. The serial number is normally located on the disc case or a box inside the main box. If you did not purchase the disc from Adobe then it is possible you would have dealt with a redemption code, in which case it would have been up to you to keep a record of the serial number, especially if you did not follow up and register the software.

Hard drive crashed. How do I get OSX on my new drive?

I think my hard drive crashed, oh my. First, let me say that all my data is backed-up on a cloud drive or on my network drive. So, I am good there. The computer is now completely inoperable, can't start up, not even in safe mode. Just goes to Apple grey screen and then shuts down, that Issa far as I can get. Does not even play the start-up chime anymore.
Question I have is this: I did not make a bootable start-up drive (dumb), so when I get a new drive to replace this, how will I get the OS on it to start- up and get the new drive ready?

If you don't get a startup chime then you may have a worse problem. Just be prepared.
What year is your MBP? From 2011 onward you would use Internet Recovery. Earlier you would need to install the original software that came with the computer on software restore DVDs.
Internet Recovery
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. 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. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
            if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.
DVD Installation:
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
     1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
         with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
         After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
         a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
     2. 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.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
         and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
         (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
         username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
         Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
         install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
         Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.

Can anyone help me to transfer everything I have on my Ipad on to a new computer. my hard drive crashed and a new one was installed and I do not want to loose all my apps or music. Please help

Hi everyone,
I am looking for help and maybe someone can help me please. My hard drive crashed and dell installed a new one. I have two iphones and an ipad with all my apps, music, amd photos. Can anyone indicate me what to do so I do not lose everything when I plug in my phone. Thanks

Naturally you should have a recent backup of your "crashed" hard drive. If you don't, well, hopefully you've learned a lesson but that doesn't solve your current problem.
If all your apps and media were purchased from the iTunes App Store, don't worry about them. Redownload all your apps and media, then allow iTunes to sync with and wipe your iOS devices - which will also put all the apps and media on them. You'll lose your settings, and any data which resided only on the iOS devices, and of course you'll need to organize your iOS folders and home screens and whatnot. But you won't really lose much, and without a backup this is your best choice.
If you have media from sources other than the iTunes App Store, look at Senuti or similar applications designed to copy media from iOS devices to computers. Use that first, then sync as I described in my second paragraph above. (I mention Senuti because it's popular. There are other options which work just as well, and some are even free.)

Hard Drive Crash - getting a Photo Book onto new computer

I just had a catastrophic hard drive crash on my G5 iMac (still using 10.4, so no Time Machine). Thankfully I actually got all my photos back - backed up 2 months ago, most of the rest are still on our memory card, and the few that aren't I could save using a disk recovery program.
However, I still have an iPhoto hard copy book on the dead drive, but hadn't ordered it yet, and would like to recover it. Even with the disk recovery program, the iPhoto library is in bad shape (I couldn't copy it to another drive - just got an error message). However, most of it appears intact. Here's what I'm hoping to do:
1) Restore (on a new drive) from my backup from 2 months ago
2) Copy back in the photos I either saved from the dead hard drive, or from my camera's card.
3) Somehow get back the iPhoto book I'd been working on. Here's my question - where in my old iPhoto library would I find the file or files that make up this book? If I find them, can I simply copy those files into my backed-up iPhoto library? Or is there some other way I can get my iPhoto book back?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. All books, calendars, cards, etc. are contained in the library's database file, Library6.iPhoto. If you can recover that file from your damaged drive put it in your recovered library and see if it will bring back the book. However, if the structure of the library package is not exactly like it was when it crashed it will not work.
Without a complete backup of the iPhoto LIbrary package it's neigh on to impossible to recover a book or calendar from bits and pieces of a recovered library. There are other ways a library can be damaged, primarily the database file, and a very easy way to recover from it is to have a *very current* backup copy of the database file. One way to achieve is it described in the tip at the end of my signature. It describes a way to have a backup copy that can be only minutes old if you run it properly.
Also, to protect your image files themselves get an external HD and use it to backup the full library and other important files.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

I lost my iTunes library on my pc when the hard drive crashed. None of the data on the drive was recoverable and I did not have a backup either locally or on the cloud. Much of the music is from old vinyl and podcasts which are no longer available.

Hard drive crash need help with new iTunes load and backup files

I have looked through the posts and not found my situation.
I had my iPhone synced to a PC computer and the hard drive crashed. I had an extensive library in iTunes, but none of the music was purchased online so I can't simply download it again. It was all from CD's, many of which belonged to friends. I now have an iMac. The music I like is still on my iPhone, but not on my new iMac. When I try to sync the iPhone with my iMac it wants to delete all the music on my iPhone. Is there any way to copy the music off my iPhone first - so I can add it back into my iTunes library?

Yes, luckily I have been in this situation.
You can download a free application that will take your music from your iPhone and place it onto your Macintosh HD.
One of these should suit your needs:

If you have a Mac, it's pretty easy. But you don't (should I make a pitch for you to get a MacBook Pro in the future)?
This should help you out to sync it back to several non-Apple software:
