Help! My computer crashed, and I've downloaded I-Tunes but now my library is wiped out. Is there any way to recover it?
Sorry for the long title...first time. Will I be able to recover my I-Tunes library?
I find it amazing the people believe installing iTunes will magically cause their media to appear on their computers.
Time to wake up and smell the coffee... it's YOUR media and YOUR responsibility to back it up.

Help! I have deleted my iphoto library. Is there any way to recover it? It is not in my trash as I emptied that.
If you really moved it to the Trash and emptied the Trash, your best option is to restore the iPhoto library from your backup.
But if you did not actually trash the library and it is just missing, search for it with Find Any File as described by Old Toad in this post: Re: iPhoto Library is missing. What do I do?
If you don't have a backup and cannot find the library, you will need to buy recovery software to find the photos, but that will not restore the library. -
I have both an i-Phone 4 and a classic i-Pod. I want to download Japanese music on I-Tunes, but it won't let me because they I have an American account. I cannot get a Japanese credit card because I am a foreigner, I would still like to use my American card.
Is there any way to get Japanese artists and songs, without deleting my I-Tunes account for America?
Thank you,

Like the subject line says - I set up a new account in itunes. Put in my personal information (credit card, address) but - when it came time to provide my email address - I gave one that does not belong to me (similar to my name but not my correct address). Is there any way to retrieve the information I inputted OR put in my correct email address?
Thanks.go to appleid.apple.com. Click on manage my acct. sign in using the email you provided (even if it is wrong, it is the one you provided, so technically it is your username.) Once you sign in, it should have your details right there, it will say "apple ID and primary email address" and to the irgh of that, it will say edit. choose edit, and provide the correct info.

Initially things worked fine. I was very pleased. I had my music library in itunes, on my Ipod nano, and a thumbdrive to back up most of my music.
When I tried to sync the music from itunes onto my new ipad mini last week it deleted the albums in itunes leaving me with only purchased itunes items in the account, On the new Ipad mini CD's from my collection could not be played but they were in fact listed. My new mac will not read the music files I backed up onto a thumb drive or show the uploaded CD music collection. Additionally when I logged into itunes with out any devices connected from my PC the itunes account was completely up to date with my CD's and purchase items in Itunes. As soon as I tried to sync it with my Ipad mini that virtual access to the collection was wiped out leaving only purchased items.
By trying to upload CD music from my Ipod nano into Itunes (originally uploaded into itunes from CD's and synced to the ipod nano in the first place, taking more than a weeks time), I am prompted to reset the entire ipod nano to factory settings (it gives no other option). I was following the instructions emailed to me from the applecare team. This was my only recourse for recovery of the lost music files, the only device left that had my album collection aside from the owned CD's. Now the ipod nano is being wiped clean and left with only the itunes purchased music ( same thing that happened with the itunes account and now the Ipad). When I disconnect the ipod nano to see if there are any albums still left on the device, it gives me an error that it was improperly disconnected.
I just wanted to add the music from itunes to my new mac and the new ipad mini. Instead I have lost all of my uploaded CD's and now have only purchased items in itunes, the new ipad mini, the new mac, and the ipod nano. I have to re-upload my entire music library into itunes/icloud from CD's again and hopefully be able to then sync it with my new devices.
However it may be better to buy the itunes purchased music on CD's from a store, Cut my losses while I can and never buy anything from apple or itunes again. Atleast I will not have my entire music collection wiped out for moving it between my own devices. Itunes match doesn't do **** either. I have wasted alot of hard earned cash on devices products and itunes purchases by converting to apple products and services.
What a big mistake.
Very dissapointed with the interface. Very Very Dissapointed!

[email protected]Had the same issue when I changed computers. I backed up my I-tunes files, including CDs, but I-Tunes will not recognize anything but Apple purchases now. There were 300+ CDs in that original catalog.

Due to recurring problems with Windows 8, I had to "refresh" my laptop. As a result, my computer was reset to its factory settings, and Mozilla Firefox was stripped out. I have lost my bookmarks, browser history, and cookies.
Is this lost information still present somewhere on my computer's hard drive? (I did get a list of removed apps afterwards.) Is there any way to recover and restore my bookmarks, at the very least?
I have yet to reinstall Firefox, because I do not want to overwrite anything that might still be present.Hold on before installing. Firefox isn't going to look in the C:\Windows.old folder.
To show hidden files, see: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files
Then look for:
C:\Windows.old\Users\''username''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
Can you find a folder there named something gibberish.default? -
trying to rent a movie and error message pops up saying "item cannot be downloaded on this network. You must connect to wi-fi or download it on your computer". I just finished downloading a rental but I get this message when attempting another. Any help much appreciated
You might want to try it again. It started working for me about 10 minutes ago (~8pm CST).
This was happening for rentals and purchases. -
HELP! I just got a 5S....synced to my computer....and lost the photos/videos that I took today before connecting to my computer that I need back! Is there any way to recover these?
If you took pictures and then set up your phone using a back up from an old phone, you have erased the pictures. If you emailed or texted them to someone, you may be able to get them back that way.
Best of luck. -
Is there any way to recover this website? I need to edit it but the original files were wiped clean even after recovering what was left on the hard drive.
iWeb stores its sites and pages in a proprietary package format on the HDD in the user library, and when FTP'ing it to the server, it's a set of PHP and other file types. So, there is no way you can re-build from what's on the server.
But you may double-check, the file in question on the HDD is ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2 (where ~ is your user home folder). Maybe it's somewhere among your recovered files? Restoring it into the same location and copying iWeb into the Applications folder will get you going again.
Other than that, here is a discussion forum dedicated to iWeb. -
I have cs4 installed on my old computer, i have since lost the disk and serial #s. Is there any way to recover this information and install the programs on my new computer? I used my old computer for college and haven't used it in awhile, now I have a job that can benefit from having those programs. I was wondering if ADOBE keeps records or something to where I can download the programs on my new MacBook and use my old serial #s.

I recently changed jobs and no longer have access to the computer that contained my Firefox bookmarks. I don't have a Firefox profile. Is there any way to find and transfer my bookmarks to my new computer?
If you don't have access to the old computer any longer, '''no'''. Unless you were using something like the Google Toolbar & Google Bookmarks or Xmarks, which would have your bookmarks in an online account that you could access. Firefox doesn't include an online storage feature for personal data, yet. That is coming in a future version.
If you have a friend at your old job maybe they have access to that old PC and they could export your bookmarks to a file and email that file to you. -
While trying to sync my calendar to my new mac, I lost all my calendar events on my iPhone. Best guess is I didn't set up icloud on my phone first and my computer deleted them. Is there any way to recover my calendar from iCloud?
Your music will only be where you put it.
Did you copy all of your music from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one? -
I made a huge mistake, my wife loaded pix under guest and as I closed it to get to my account pix were deleted. Is there any way to recover these pix? Please help!!!
You can try data recovery software, like Stellar Phoenix. That may (or may not) recover some or (probably not) all of them. Any that cannot be recovered have probably been overwritten and are gone for good.
Note that you should not do anything further with the machine until you have the data recovery software, and should not install said software on the machine, since that may overwrite the data you're trying to recover. You'll want to have some other drive you can boot from and use the recovery software from.
