Hard drive crashes and did not get to deauthorize the computer now I can't

My computer recently crashed and now I cannot play my songs on it any more, because it says that no more computers can be authorized, but I could not deauthorize it before it crashed.

Hi, mgraham.
It sounds like you've used up all the five authorizations you're allowed with an iTS account. In that case, have a look at the How do I deauthorize all of my computers? section of this Apple Support page .
Note that you can only use this option once a year.

My old hard drive crashed and had to get it replaced. How do I reinstall my old library to the new hard rive from my iphone4s so I don't lose my music?

My old hard drive crashed and had to get it replaced. How do I reinstall my old library to the new hard drive from my iphone4s so I don't lose my music?

Officially you don't. Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.

iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

how do i get a recovery disk or download for os 10.5.8? my system was installed by an apple store when replacing my hard drive. i did not get a backup disk. macbook is a 1.1 from mid 2006 and 10.5.8 is as far as i can go.. use this as a utility backup when my new macbook pro with mt lion screws something up---which seems like a daily event. do i have to install a lesser version of leopard then install the update. does software update even work anymore for leopard? im so in the dark and when i look at the console i just freak.

Hello, your best bet would be to clone your drive to an external drive, which will be bootable.

You're not likely to see any updates show up for 10.5.x
The very first MacBook 1,1s can actually run 10.6, which is updatable to 10.6.8, but will only run in 32 bit mode on yours.

Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.

My hard drive crashed and need music off of iphone to computer

Hi, ok so my hard drive crashed and i lost all my music. I toke the computer in and the tech guys supposedly saved all my info on my external hard drive but for some reason i can not get my music back to itunes so i can restore everything. So my question is if there is anyway to get my info off of my iphone back to my computer

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod/iphone. Without syncing : File>Transfer Purchases
Make sure you have authorized the computer to your account first.
If you sync contacts and calendars to a blank computer, then they will be erased as well. Another reason why always maintaining a backup is critical.
You can enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer and when you first sync you should get the option to merge.
As soon as you do this, make a backup copy of your computer and maintain it.

My hard drive crashed and I need to reload my CS6 software. Where can I find a download link?

My hard drive crashed on my desktop. I need to reload my CS6 software. Where can I find a download link? I use to be able to download it at work . . . I work at FedEx Office.
Thanks,
Audrey

You can download the trial from the Adobe site https://www.adobe.com/products/cs6.html and activate it with your serial number.
Alternatively you can download it directly (without any download manager) from http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html - make sure you follow the Very Important Instructions before proceeding to the download.

Hard drive crashed and I have no way to access my iTunes. Can I transfer my music from my iPhone to new computer

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.

I purchased a season pass to a tv show and did not get all of the downloads

I purchased a season pass to a tv show, and only three of the eight shows available for download actually downloaded. The other five came up to download, but then disappeared. There will be around 20 all together, and I know the other 12 will not be available until after they air. I even received a confirmation email that showed I should have been able to download 8, not just 3. What can I do? How do I get the other 5 that should have downloaded?

Go to the page roaminggnome linked to. Under the *Get Customer Service* column, click Video, and it should expand the list.
Click on *Video Purchases* next, and it will expand the list again.
Click on *Lost or Missing items*.
A gray button that says *Email Us* will appear on the right.
If you aren't seeing that, maybe your popup blocker is hiding it.

Hard drive crashed, saved programs on external hard drive, reinstalling and having issues getting programs to work. What should I do?

I have a Mac and purchased a student edition of CS6 before you had to subscribe. My hard drive crashed and I was able to reinstall the programs, but there is an error. Does anyone know how to contact support or how to fix the problem?

Can someone please help a friend of mine get a permanent registration key (not a trial key that expires in 30 days) to replace his lost registration key for Adobe Photoshop CS2? His previous hard drive crashed and he no longer has his registration key. This is vital for his wedding business.

Thanks to everyone for the tips on my CS2 question. It turns out in the end it was some plug-in filter software that was causing the glitch, not a lack of an Adobe registration key. As for why he still uses CS2, it does the job for him, so that's all he needs.

I've been using Adobe Acrobat 7 for many years. I updated my full version of Acrobat 5 to get to 7. My hard drive crashed and I've been trying to reinstall Acrobat and it will not install. Adobe will not help because 7 is no longer supported. Does anyone know where I can go for help?

You won't be able to install your original Acrobat 7 at all, or use your original serial number. The server which used to allow this was switched off.
But assuming you have a compatible system, like Mac OS 5 or Windows XP, licensed users of Acrobat 7 can download a replacement and get a replacement serial number.

My Hard Drive crashed and I am trying to retrieve a audio book that was not on my ipod

How do I get a audio book I purchased from itunes to my ipod or my itunes? I can see where I purchased it but can not figure out where it is. My Hard drive crashed and I lost everything.

It will only be where you put it.
If for some reason you have failed to backup your computer, then it is gone.

Hi,
The simplest solution would to restore from your back up - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4112
If you do not have a back, you can select first track on list in song view, from menu > edit > select all. Next ctrl+click and select download from pop up. You may wish to do this in small batches as it will take some time to download.

HELP"apple application support not found when installing itunes after a hard drive crash and replace

HELP" error "apple application support not found" when downloading itunes after a hard drive crash and replacement????

Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
