Had iphone backed up to itunes on Mac Book Pro. water destroyed mac. downloaded new itunes on PC. want to sync iphone to itunes on PC. When clicking sync a pop up asked if I'm sure i want to erase what is on my iphone and sync with a blank itunes! No!Help

How do I sync my phone to a new blank Itunes without erasing the data on my iphone?

iTunes now gives you the option to install previous purchases on your devices. Sign in to your iTunes account on your computer and go to the iTunes store. Once there, click on the purchased link on the right side of the store screen. It will take you to a screen that shows all of your previous iTunes purchases. Music, TV shows, Movies... Download whatever you want on your new computer. If that isn't an option you want to try then plug you iPhone into your computer and open iTunes. When your phone shows up in iTunes, click on it. At the bottom of the screen you should be able to select the option to manually transfer music. Then select the music you want from your phone and copy it over to your computer. At this point if you aren't logged in to your iTunes account you will be asked to sign in to play the songs. Hope this helps.

  • I have a digital voice recorder with a 3.5mm mic and headphone jack and want to transfer some recorded lecture to my mac book pro.  The mac book does not have 3.5mm  jacks.  Does anyone know if a jack to USB converter would work?

    I have a digital voice recorder with a 3.5mm microphone and headphone jack and want to transfer some recorded lectures to my mac book pro.  The mac book does not have 3.5mm  jacks.  Does anyone know if a jack to USB converter would work?

    Is there a pattern to the time of day or other detail that may be
    traced back to a OS X system cause of this odd phenomenon?
    Are there any copies of system files on any of the attached USB
    external drives? Any libraries, such as iTunes, iPhoto, etc?
    Once the drives are indexed by Spotlight, are their permissions
    ignored by the OS X? Content, if neutral, should not affect the
    wake or sleep cycle; especially if they're ignored by the OS X.
    Could there be a bad cable or other component? If so that would
    be a difficult process of elimination to detect it. Usually replacing
    most suspect components in the USB stream (external to Macs)
    is a rote way to mechanically test that idea; & not 100% sure.
    Does the equipment all have a good ground to the utility or house
    electrical field? An intermittent ground may affect more than sleep.
    Hard to say at this point. Maybe a late-night talk radio guru on
    remote viewing could peer into your situation and sleuth it out?
    Sorry to have run out of ideas, but the process must be electrical
    & mechanical to some extent. - Or perhaps odd software inspired.
    Do you have any phone-home spyware items inside, just jumping
    at the chance to spill your information? Little Snitch may help.
    PS: Perhaps the computer needs to go into Apple & have a genius
    or product specialist at AASP test the unit thoroughly... BlueTooth?

    Do you have a backup that you can restore from? Your old hard drive seems to be the problem.

  • I wonder if Apple took up the old mac book pro if we bought a new one, and if yes so how much?

    I wonder if Apple took up the old mac book pro if we bought a new one, and if yes so how much? I have a 2009.

    If the old MBP is working, try selling it. However, so that both you and the buyer can avoid sleepless nights, please review this Apple article:
    What to do before selling or giving away your Mac
    It omits one important thing if the computer came with a OS version older than Lion 10.7: be sure to include the original install disks. Otherwise the buyer may not be able to use the computer and come looking for his money.

  • I had brought the Mac book pro 15 inch retinal display in nov. 2013 in USA. I lost my luggage in the flight transit at Paris CDG. Now I can't install windows 8.1 which I brought from same store frys at LA, USA. Pl. help. Thanks gyanesh

    Dear friends
    I had brought this Mac book pro 15 inch retinal display and windows 8.1 and then I left to India my home place for vacation now my problem is during flight transit at Paris CDG. For flight change. My luggage got lost and I had to leave for India. On reaching I waited for 6 days daily going to the Mumbai airport and enquiry but now I am stuck I can't work using windows software s for designing engg.
    Can someone tell me a better way how can I install windows if I don't have the driver CDs?
    Thanks in advance.  Sb sob sob
    Pl. help. Thanks

    Reinstall OSX using the online recovery.
    Then use Boot Camp Assistant. One of the Boot Camp Assistant menu items is download the Windows Support Software (drivers). Make sure you follow the Boot Camp instructions.
    Or, Reinstall OSX using the online recovery.
    Then install a virtual machine like Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox. Then install Windows in the virtual machine.
    You can use either Boot Camp or a virtual machine to install Windows. Neither method requires any driver cds.

  • Mac Book Pro 17" or Mac Pro?

    Not sure which one is right for me. I am a photographer and graphic designer (print & web). I want to upgrade from my old iMac Power PC G5. Was thinking that I could get the Mac Book Pro with a separate display and use that for my retouching and InDesign files. That way I can also be mobile on photo shoots and use Capture One for tethered shooting. How can files be backed up by time machine on the MBP without an external hard drive? Is the MBP equal to the tower in capacity for hooking up external hardware such as drives or camera equipment? Is the MBP processor (2.66GHz Intel Core i7) as fast as the tower (Two 2.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon “Westmere” (8 cores)? Is 8MB of memory enough on the MBP? Please point out any other pros or cons for either computer to help me make a decision.
    Thanks!

    Hi cindy,

    That would work, but there are distinct differences. Quite honestly, the MP is much more capable than the MBP for heavy duty work such as yours, but as you know, at the cost of portability.
    How can files be backed up by time machine on the MBP without an external hard drive?
    You could partition the internal HD, but that would not protect against several things: if the HD died, both the main partition and the TM backup are gone; if the unit is lost/stolen/damaged, same thing. It's almost putting all your eggs in one basket.
    Is the MBP equal to the tower in capacity for hooking up external hardware such as drives or camera equipment?
    No, the MP has more connections and bays and potential for expandability.
    Is the MBP processor (2.66GHz Intel Core i7) as fast as the tower (Two 2.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon “Westmere” (8 cores)?
    In MacTracker benchmarks, the i7 MBP benchmark is 5423, while the MP with two 2.4 Quads is 12942, so the MP is more than twice as fast.
    Is 8MB of memory enough on the MBP?
    Given the limitations stated above, 8GB of RAM should be sufficient.
    Please point out any other pros or cons for either computer to help me make a decision.
    You covered many of the salient points, but potential for expansion is a big one for some people, maybe someday adding a BR burner, adding multiple HDs, etc. I am not familiar with current MPs, but I suspect that given the huge speed advantage, it's going to handle the same tasks much, much faster without breaking a sweat, while the MBP is likely to run rather hot even while lagging far behind.
    I think the big decision is speed and expansion vs portability. Good luck to you.
    (Was just browsing the MP specs some more; wow, that is one serious machine!)

  • How can I copy a photo book from a mac book pro to a mac

    We have all our photobooks on our Mac. There are just two old ones that were made on an mac book pro and we want to transfer them to the mac so we have everything together.
    How should we do this?

    Copy the iPhoto library that you used to create the photo books to your new mac.
    Then double-click the library to open it in iPhoto (assuming you are using iPhoto '11).  What is your iPhoto version and your MacOS X verserion?
    Did you use an earlier iPhoto version to create the photo books on your old mac? Then the books may change when you open them in a newer version of iPhoto because the Book Themes changed between versions. In that case it would be better to keep the iPoto libraries on the old mac with the older iPhoto version, until you are sure that opening the iPhoto libraries in the current iPhoto on your mac will not change the layout.

  • I cannot download album artwork on my Mac Book Pro but it will download on a two-year old Dell Ispiron 15R.  Why?

    Whenever I insert an album into the disc drive of the Mac Book Pro (New, December 23rd 2012) it cannot find the artwork (comes up with unspecified error; 609).  But until I installed the new version of iTunes it would download artwork.  Why is this?
    Thanks for your help.

    You'll need to ask in the iTunes Mac forum. They are better equipped to assist you.

  • MAC BOOK PRO OR I MAC

    today i want to purchase either an i mac or macbook pro. please help me to choose one. my main interest is to work with photos. if mac book pro is capable of dealing with high end software like adobe photoshop cs6, is it preferrable to buy it or should i go for I mac? please tell me

    iMac has a big screen is is capable or Phot Editing, iMovie, watching movies, view images in larger screens.
    iMac can hold better memory better.
    Pros:
    Attractive, sleek, and solid industrial design.
    Quite fast. In addition to fast processors, currently shipping "Mid-2011" and "Late 2011" as well as discontinued "Mid-2010" models all have "dedicated" graphics for improved performance compared to some earlier models as well.
    All 21.5-Inch and 27-Inch models have beautiful LED-backlit displays created for optimum use with 16:9 high-definition video.
    RAM is very easy to upgrade and the processor in some models can be upgraded as well.
    Dual-layer DVD write support, 802.11n, and Firewire "800" standard in all configurations (the current "Mid-2011" models support "Thunderbolt" as well).
    Official dual display support and built-in iSight for easy video conferencing.
    SD Card slot standard in all 21.5" and 27" models (the previous "Mid-2010" and current "Mid-2011" and "Late 2011" models support the more advanced SDXC standard as well).
    Reasonable value.
    Cons:
    All-in-one design limits internal expansion. Apple provides no support for end-user upgrades beyond RAM.
    The hard drive in 20" and 24" models is difficult to upgrade and even more difficult to upgrade in 21.5" and 27" models.
    The processor, likewise, is difficult to upgrade yourself in all models and apparently blocked in others.
    Glossy display in all models. Discontinued 20-Inch models have lower quality 6-bit displays with more limited viewing angle.
    Keyboard design is polarizing -- some will like it, some will not.
    Depending on the desired configuration, it may be less expensive to purchase an Intel-based Mac mini.
    Limited legacy support -- uses "Rosetta," no support of MacOS 9/Classicapplications.
    SD Card Slot on 21.5" and 27" models is placed awkwardly close to the optical drive slot on the right hand side, which makes it easy to mistakenly stick an SD Card in the optical drive.
    Premium compared to generic "white box" PC
    Macbook Pro is very helpful when you have a business and need to use it a lot on the go such as business, vacation and more. But the case is that MacBook Pro is a lot likely to get stolen if you leave it alone.
    MacBook Pro 2012 is new and has better technology

  • Action initiated: Upgrade Mac Book Pro to Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.-, via Wi-fi. After 2 hours said could not install it. I tried again through Ethernet (cable). No success. Should I buy itagain? How this thing with the Apple store works? Not so familiar.

    The OS X Mountain Lion I tried to download Wi-Fi on Mac Book Pro was not successfull. Should I buy it again? Should I check with Apple store for credit?
    I successfully instaled it in iMac, but have problem with laptp. I also think I should not have bought 2 upgardes, becase if I have 2 computers, one paid upgrade is good for both computers. Am I wrong? SOmeone can advise how to proceed? I want to try again through Ethernet - cable internet - instead of Wi-Fi. Thank you

    You should not have paid twice. If you logged into the App Store with the same AppleID as you used to purchase Mountain Lion the first time, you should not have been charged again.
    If you internet connection is not working well enough to download it, do you have access to another network that might be faster? Perhaps and Apple Store nearby?
