Hello, i recently had to restore my laptop which means my previous itunes library is gone. Before i restored my laptop, i saved my old library on an external harddrive. So i was wondering if the was a way to get my old itunes library in the new library
how do you put music from ipod thats synced with another library on to a new library without erasing anything. i recently had to restore m laptop to factory settings and of course my itunes is the same. i have a lot of music and pictures and it would take days to redownload all of it.
That is covered here:
iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive
What kind of photos are you talking about?
Ones in the iPod's Camera Roll album are included in the iPod backup that iTunes makes. Photos synced to the iPod or not and they are not in your iTunes library either. You have to back those up separately.
Also the iPod backup that iTunes makes is not included in your iTunes library. It location is listed here:
iTunes: About iOS backups. So back that up too.

I have purchased a new iPad2 and I was wondering if there is a way to get iPod content onto this new device. I am having difficulty finding any information on this kind of transfer and I am not sure if it is even possible. Just not looking forward to loosing my progress in games and information in notes and other apps. Thanks
Have you been syncing the iPod with iTunes? Then you just connect the iPad and set it up through iTunes and sync any content you want onto it.

In terms of games/apps. If they are not universal (you will see a + symbol next to them) or made for iPad (you would see an HD in the name, usually) then they won't look good on an iPad as those apps will open in a iPod sized window, giving you the option to enlarge. -
My Toshiba laptop crashed and I was wondering if there is a way to reload it through itunes
In September 2013 my laptop crashed and someone helped me recover my Itunes library (music, movies & TV). The laptop crashed again but no I think it's the motherboard and/or screen. I have a netbook that I'd like to be able to access everything again but I can't figure out how to do it.
I have my iPod (old school) and it was recently backed up so it probably has everything on it. I'm just afraid to hook it up because I don't know if it will delete everything and just load what's on iTunes now. (one album)
Would all of the information still be accessible?It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everythihg back.
If for some reason you have failed to do this, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases -
Hi I just recently downloaded an app, and I was wondering if I could return it and get my money refunded back?
The app store states very clearly that all sales are final.
If you want to try, contact Apple customer support: http://www.apple.com/contact and see what they say. -
i recently bought a macbook pro and i made a new apple id. my last macbook had a different id as well and i was wondering if there's a way of transferring all my music from the other laptop to the new one without having to use my old apple id? if it makes any type of difference i have an iphone 5 so i tried transfering the music but it only transfered certain things and not my entire album.
Making a new Apple ID was the worst thing you could of done. This is very bad to do. Not sure why people do that. Your Apple ID is Your Apple ID. You only need one and it is best to only have one Apple ID for all apple devices.
Sorry I don't have any suggestions for you. -
My email was hacked so I had to make a new one and naturally I changed my iTunes account too. I had previously redeemed a $50 gift card on my own account and was wondering if there was any way in restoring it?
Try contacting Apple through Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)

I was wondering if there is a way to shut off the install mode on my G3 every time I plug in the USB to my Mac. I have an android manager software Mobile Go that this seems to be preventing it from connecting
as62467 We appreciate your G3 question! Let's see how we can help. What you are able to adjust is the USB connection mode by going to the home screen and selecting'recent apps' (in the touch keys bar), settings,storage, the menu (the 3 tiny dots) and tap usb pc connection. If you do not want the software to try and install choose either the internet connection or camera option. Let us know if this helps.

I download quite a few magazines through the app store on my iPad. I just bought an iMac and was wondering if there is a way to transfer those purchases over so that I could read them on my Mac?
You should be able to use the OpenVPN Connect app running on your iPad to connect your iPad to the VPN directly. It is an official OpenVPN client for iOS devices.
In what way is it "not compatible"? Have you tried it? Tunnelblick is an OpenVPN client, so your school's VPN is using the OpenVPN protocol. That means any OpenVPN client should be able to access it. (It is possible, but unlikely, that your school uses encryption that is not available on the iPad, but that would be very unusual.)
Otherwise, a remote control app on your iPad would let you control your Mac at home. "Back to My Mac", for example, would allow you to control your Mac remotely. The tricky part of this is that usually a VPN is set up to send all Internet traffic via the VPN server, and I'm not sure how that would work with "Back to My Mac". -
I have two macs in my house. One is newer and came with the os x mountain lion software and the other one needs to be upgraded. I was wondering if there is a way to take upgrade from one to the other? Should not have to buy this software again.
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Buy it for the other computer. Mountain Lion is preinstalled on the new Mac, but you can only use it in the new one -

Or remove you from his, it's moot because You and He are the same account, either get him his own (they are free) or live with this cozy but privacy compromised method. -
I need to save some pictures from iPhoto to a SDHC photo card for a digital frame and was wondering if there is a way to shrink or compress file size for each picture as I have already cropped the pictures? Thank you
Yes, you do this when you export the images from the Library.
File -> Export
in the Size section, you don't need images larger than the frame size, so you can specify that and in the Jpeg Quality you can select the amount of compression used.
This User Tip

has details of the options in the Export dialogue. -

I was wondering if there's a way to connect to my work server from my home iMac i7. I can't seem to get Share Screen to work. I have tried connecting to server using the vnc but doesn't work.
The easiest way would be to use Back to My Mac, but that will only work if the server is a Mac running OS X 10.7 or later and you have the cooperation of the network administrator.

I deleted my iphotos app off my mac by mistake. i was wondering if there is a way for me to download it for free instead having to pay for it off of appstore?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
iPhoto comes for free with every new Mac, so you don't have to pay.
If your Mac didn't come with DVDs or it came with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, open the Mac App Store, log in with the Apple ID you used to register the computer, go to Purchases and download iPhoto free of charge.
If your Mac came with DVDs or you bought iLife in a DVD, insert the DVD and reinstall iPhoto. Then, open > Software Update, and install the most recent version
