Hard drive crashed....do I have to pay to get my apps again?
I had just downloaded imovie 11 about a month before the crash....do I have to pay again? Also lost ilife 08
Hi,
Not if you purchased them through the Mac App Store. Just sign in with the same Apple ID you purchased with and they should show up under Purchases. Did you install iLife 08 by DVD?

My original computer hard drive crashed. I have a new laptop, but I lost all my address book entries. Is there a way I can transfer my contacts on my ipad to my non-apple laptop? Tom B
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:

my laptop hard drive crashed, used to have lion now it is back to snow leopard. i lost all of my info, music, pictures, etc. how do i get it back to lion again? this is very frustrating because i paid $30 to download it and now i am unable to have it again.
If your Mac is off then start up. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the Option key until the Mac and Windows Disks show up. Then click on the Mac disk and the arrow below it. After it boots up in Mac then go to System Preferences>Startup Disk and select your Mac partition as the Startup disk.
If you are in Windows then look for the Boot Camp icon on the taskbar. It will look like a gray box sitting on one corner. One of the options when you click it is to restart in Mac OS. After it boots up in Mac then go to System Preferences>Startup Disk and select your Mac partition as the Startup disk. -

Touchsmart IQ524 hard drive crashed. Ran Recovery CDs and I get an error Windows can not install on
I have an HP Touchsmart IQ524 which the hard drive crashed. I replaced the hard drive with the exact same model. I run the Recovery CDs (which I purchased from HP website) and it goes all the way through the process and after the reboot I get a message that "Windows can not install software on this hardware" - so it never completes the process. I have formatted the hard drive and bought and returned 3 hard drives. Any suggestions and assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Hi:
I love recovery disks when they work, and HATE them when they don't.
Fortunately, I have a workaround for you which isn't as good as a recovery disk, but it is better than pulling your hair out, and getting nowhere.
First of all, before you try this, did you perform the recovery with only the keyboard and mouse connected?
Did you buy the same size or larger hard drive?
If your answer to either question is no, then that may be the problem.
Now to the workaround...
If you're up to a slight but rewarding challenge you can make your own if you can read your 25 character Vista product key on the PC.
Just download the 3 files you need at the link below, and read all of the instructions to create a bootable DVD installation disk using imageburn.
Disregard the part of the text under the first screen shot about "extract the files to the Vista folder."
The files were already extracted to that folder when you ran the X14.exe file by reading the text on top of the first screen shot.
The other thing I noticed is on the 4th screen shot, where it shows Developer ID Microsoft Corporation. I had to type Microsoft Corporation in myself, and then the other codes automatically populated.
When I went to compile the ISO file, ImageBurn gave a message that about a WIM file and ISO, and if I wanted to burn it in a different format.
I selected No, make the ISO file.
It was not that hard to do. I burned both the 64 bit disk and the 32 bit disk in case I ever need them.
I tested both of them on my hp dc7100 CMT desktop PC, they worked perfectly.
When you enter the product key, it knows what version of Vista you have.
http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/software-os/w/microsoft_os/3317.2-3-microsoft-windows-v....
After you successfully install Vista, you can then install the drivers from your PC's support and driver page.

My hard drive crashed and I have lost all of my music. How do I get it back?
My hard drive has crashed and I have lost all of my music. Is there a way to contact the itunes people and get at least all of my purchased music back?
If you are a resident of the U.S., have iTunes 10.3 or later, you can re download purchases for free.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
My hard drived crashed in my HP Pavilion desktop and I have installed a new one. I have Windows 2007. My Itunes library is gone. How can I get all the music that I loaded onto my iPod from my own CD's back into an Itunes library?
The loading of audio files to iPod is designed to go one way only: computer to iPod. There are some third-party applications available which will rescue an audio library and write the files back to a PC HDD. The playlists might not copy, nor the album art work, nor videos but you might be able to recover all audio files. Some apps are open source and available for free download, for example: Senuti, Onyx. There are others which are Windows-based; do a Google search to find out.

II lost my HP hard drive after doing a HP Recovery Backup using Windows 7. I now have a new computer using Windows 8.1 and I have successfully unzipped all my files including my Thunderbird and Firefox profiles,. I have installed Firefox and Thunderbird on the new computer but cannot figure out how to get my bookmarks (Firefox) or my emails (Thunderbird) off these old profiles. Just substituting the old profiles stops the applications from opening and obviously I did not create these using the application export facility. Can the application be fooled by renaming the file with the name of the new profile? or is there some internal code that the program checks. I'm totally at a loss.
The Profile names have to match what Firefox and Thunderbird is expecting to find. Any difference and they may not start, or they may just create a new Profile ''as they are supposed to when the expected Profile is "gone".''
You can rename the old Profiles to the names of the new Profiles; or you can carefully edit the profiles.ini file to match the Profile names of the old Profiles. ''One mistake and it's toast, though.''
But IMO, the best thing to do is to go to the folder level where the '''profiles.ini''' file and the '''profiles''' folderset is located --
'''%APPDATA%/Mozilla/Firefox/ '''
where you should find '''profiles.ini''' and the '''Profiles''' folder, ''and maybe other files / folders''
Copy that whole '''Firefox''' folder from the old installation over to the new one.
With Thunderbird that should work the same as it is based upon the basics in Firefox, but I have never used Thunderbird. -
My hard drive crashed, do I have to sync and erase to use iTunes?
Hi guys,
So my hard drive died during a recent move. I was able to recover all of my music files onto an external drive, but my computer is now running on a new hard drive, onto which I've installed iTunes, and imported all my old music.
All well and good, except when I plug in my iphone and attempt to manually manage my files, I get the dreaded, "You must Sync and Erase" message.
Is there any way I can sync my phone to this library without losing everything?
I actually don't mind erasing the music. I'll add it back in manually. But the idea of reinstalling all my apps and setting them all up again, losing my pictures, videos, contacts, etc. is somewhat daunting.
Anybody have any possible solutions?Note that the OP apparently DID have a backup, and restored all of the music to iTunes. We are so used to people not having backups that we assume that no one does.
If the music is on your computer then when you sync it will erase the content, but then put it back from the restored music library. It would probably be easier to disable Manually Manage.. and instead sync the music library. Less work. -
My hard drive is dun. I'm get a new Mac. Can I put my music form my IPhone and iPod onto my new Mac.
Hi,
With a single user activation license, you can install Acrobat on two machines.
If you want to install the software on third machine, then you might need to deactivate it from the old one.
If the hard disk has crashed, then please contact Adobe Customer Service as they would be able to help you out for the same.

My hard drive crashed. I have my time machine backup. How do i recover all my data?
I have an external hardrive that i backed my Mac up on for just this kind of incident. I have 30 Gigs of music and many documents that i would like to have back. When i go into time machine, it acts as if it has transferred the data but its not in my itunes, or iphoto. HELP!!
Hi.
There are two ways.
1. restore her user account to your Mac, that way she can log on with her account and use it like she did her iMac
2. connect Time Machine, navigate to the latest backup, user folder, pictures and copy the iPhone Library to your desktop. Rename the library to "wife name iPhoto Libary" and copy it into your pictures folder inside your user folder. Now when you start iPhoto and go to the file menu you can switch to her library.
Good luck -
