Housefire, new computer old phone

A few months ago we had a house fire and i lost everything, i had my iphone on me though. i just recently bough another macbook pro, and i'm wondering if there is a way to transfer me pictures and apps to my computer from my phone? can anyone help me?

If the photos were synced from your computer to your phone, and are in the Photo Library album, you will need to use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them. If you have music on your phone that you need to transfer, you'll have to use 3rd party software such as PhoneView to copy them from your phone to your computer so you can import it to your iTunes library. The rest of your data can be transferred to your iTunes library by following this guide: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive. If you're using iTunes 11, first go to View>Show Sidebar in order to follow this guide. Also, Transfer Purchases (step 5) is now in File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.

HT3406 If I choose "restore from iTunes backup" to move everything from old phone. Will I still be able to use the old phone for music and apps? Can the old phone be docked up to the computer? Or will the new and old phone overwrite each other in some

If I choose "restore from iTunes backup" to move everything from old iphone to a new one, will I still be able to use the old phone for music and apps? Can the old phone be docked up to that same computer every now and then? Or will the new and old phone overwrite each other in some way? In other words, are the two phones treated as different devices when the "restore" option is used to set up the new phone? Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can use the old iPhone as an iPod touch.

Trying to reload adobe 10 and 7 on new computer. old one crashed. shows i need a serial number

purchased adobe 10 and 7 -- 2012 and 2013 -- trying to install on new computer. old one crashed. shows i need serial number. where do i get it. only have 6 discs.

Adobe is a company... what does "Adobe 10" and "Adobe 7" mean?
If you bought those on disc I don't think they are part of the Cloud
The serial number is usually on a sticker on the disc holder inside the box
If you lost your serial number check https://www.adobe.com/account.html for your registered products

Need to transfer Acrobat Pro to new computer, old computer crashed so I can't disable/uninstall. What do I do?

Need to transfer Acrobat Pro to new computer, old computer crashed so I can't disable/uninstall. What do I do?

Install it on the new machine, if you have run out of Activations then you will probably need to contact Adobe and explain what happened as far as the old computer crash and burning.

New computer/old ipod - how do I update my libray from my ipod?

new computer/old ipod - how do I update my libray from my ipod? the music wasn't transfered from cd's, shared music files...no purchased from the ipod store.

The ipod is not a storage/backup device. The sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything on your new computer.

I transferred my library to my new computer (old one completely dead!) and the music transferred but not my audio books. They aren't appearing in my purchased history. Can anyone help?

I transferred my library to my new computer (old one dead!) and the music transferred to a new library ok, but not my audiobooks. My purchased history doesn't show any purchasing in this format. Can anyone help?

Audiobooks are a one-time only download from the store, so you won't be able to redownload them via the Purchased link. Do you have a copy of them on your iPod or on your backup of your downloads/library ? If not, and if they are still in your country's store, then you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

New Computer Old Touch

My old computer died. It had my library on it. All is lost there, but my touch has most of what I like any way. Is it possible to move everything from my touch to the new computer, including music and pics? I've tried the Apple tech route and didn't get any where.
Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the discussions,
See this thread for possible ways: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0
Your apps and 3rd party data can be transferred and backed up manually: Disable autosync in itunes, make sure that your new computer is authorized. Connect your ipod, right click onit in the device list and choose "transfer purchases" Apps and purchased content from the Store will be copied over. Back up the same way choosing "backup". Make sure to have at least one contact and event set upon your computer to be able to merge contacts and calendars after the first sync. All media will be removed from your phone during the first sync, restore it from the manual backup afterwards. Music you didn't buy in itunes is one way only, as already mentioned.

New Computer, Old iPod. Not Giving me an option to sync. Stuck on Do Not Disconnect!

I just authorized my new computer and plugged in my old ipod. I just want to have access to all the music I have purchased through itunes, but nothing is happening.
My itunes account is open and my iPod has been on "Do Not Disconnect" for a long time now.
I have logged out and logged back it. Held the menu button and the center button to restart ipod and disconnected then reconnnected. I have authorized then unauthorized and reauthorized. Still nothing.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

I suspect your problem is your new iPhone 5 is running a lower version of iOS than your old iPhone 5. So, first update your new phone. Once you do that: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. You should now be able to use the backup of your old iPhone 5.

I cant seem to sync my iphone to my new computer, old one died.

I cant sync my phone to itunes on my new computer. it only recognizes my old computer

What happens when you try? Are you seeing a warning about deleting your iTunes library? Did you copy your iTunes library from the old computer? Did you have a backup of the old computer that contained the iTunes folder/library?

My 40gb can be played but Itunes says it is corrupt. I want to get the music off the Ipod onto my new computer, old computer died which had all the data on it (crap on my behalf I know) Anyone know how to do this?

My hard drive is corrupt even though I can listen to the music on the Ipod. Itunes says it is corrupt so obviously cannot read it properly. You can hear the disk reader resetting every few seconds preventing the data recovery.
We can see the track listings and playlists which we used for our wedding in 2005 and desperately want them back.
Sadly we lost the hard drive that had Itunes on it with all our music which we dont have a back up of.
Is there anyway it can be repaired and then we get the music off the Ipod and get it back on a new pc....and back it up of course?!!!

From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

New Computer, Old Hard Drive?

Hello. I just upgraded my desktop and in doing so installed my old hard drive as well. My old drive is where my i tunes resided.
Well, I installed i tunes onto my new computer, essentially creating a new account (I did not copy the old file over) now when I try to synch my i pod I get the following message:
"The i pod is synched with another i tunes library. An Ipod can be synched with only one library at a time." Then I am given the choice to "erase and synch" or to "transfer purchases"
What I want to accomplish is to have all of my old music (from previous library) to move to my newly created account along with some new purchases I just made.
How can I accomplish this?
Thanks,

There are a couple of different ways this transfer could be handled.
1. Backup all your data and files to a different hard drive. When your new MacBook arrives, copy your data from that drive manually. (This may not be an option since you don't have a working computer to backup from.)
2. Put your current hard drive in an external case and use the Migration Assistant to copy the bits and pieces you choose to the new computer. Or manually drag and drop your files over. The Migration Assistant is normally used if you have an older Mac and you're upgrading and you want to copy all your files over to the new Mac (this can be done from an external hard drive and not just a working Mac). The assistant will ask you what you want to transfer over, users and their files, network settings and/or applications. You can pick and choose between those options and even pick and choose in between different users on the same hard drive (if you have more than one).
3. Put your current hard drive into the new MacBook. It won't startup correctly, but you could then boot from your Mac OS X install disk that comes with the new MacBook, install Mac OS X as a simple "update" or an "archive and install". Obviously, you don't want to chosoe an "erase and install". And then continue to use your original drive in the new MacBook. This option is probably the most risky. While I've done something similar in the past, I haven't always had the best luck with an "update" over the top of a different build of Mac OS X. An "archive and install" will move your current System folder to a "previous" System folder and install a new System folder. You have the option to keep your user files and network settings if you choose to. Bear in mind, this path does not leave you with a backup of all your files in case something does go wrong and you must erase & install.
