How do i install the osx software onto my new hard drive?

I have just recently replaced my hard drive due to a fault from the previous one. how do i install my software without a cd? Everything is done by internet cd's just dont exist anymore. What are my options?

I don't know if this will work or not, but if your machine shipped with Lion, try booting while holding down the Command, Option and R keys. You may be able to format your drive and then reinstall Lion on it.
It may work - it might not; give it a try.

How do I save an IPhoto library onto a new hard drive while it's open? It is a miracle I got it open, and it has refused to be copied the usual way (by dragging its icon to destination drive). i want to save those photos!

How do I save an IPhoto library onto a new hard drive while library is open? It is a miracle I got it open, and it has refused to be copied the usual way (by dragging its icon to destination drive). i want to save those photos!

My external Lacie Hard drive that contains the IPhoto library is a "locked volume." Wow, now it is suddenly letting me copy it. I dragged the library's icon to the new destination (a 3T hard drive) and it is working so far.
I have also had problems copying my IMovie events from this drive, whose data I'm trying to save. It reaches a certain video and stops. I will delete that video and try again.

How do I install the ScanSnap software on my new iMac / Mountain Lion?

I have been everywhere trying to figure this out. Fujitu's site tells me to simply update the software already installed. Problem is that it's not already installed. I don't have a disk drive and so I cannot install with the disk. I downloaded v3.2 (which seems to be the software itself) from the Fujitsu site but when I double click to install I get a small box indicating 'The following disk images cannot be opened' and underneath it leasts the ScanSnap.dmg with a reason of 'not recognized'. I know this is a popular scanner (I have the S1300) and so I am hoping someone has faced this and figured it out. Fujitsu's site is rather confusing on the topic.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

How do I move the iTunes library to a new hard drive?

The 600 Gb startup drive in my 2006 MacPro had gotten corrupted (however iTunes worked just fine and is used to backup my ipad and iphone), so I put in a new 1T internal drive and installed Lion on it and other applicatiions, including iphoto without problem. Now I want to transfer all my itunes stuff, including playlists, etc to to the new 1T internal from my 600GB internal . I tried following the support article "itunes for mac: moving your itunes Media folder" but it did not work. I think the article assumes you are not changing your start-up disk and just need to point somewhere else to find the media folder. Is there a directory I need to also move to my new operating start up drive? Anyone know what I need to do? Thanks!

This might be a better article for you
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1751
essentially you move everything under the Music Folder
Username/Music/
To the same place on your new drive
Then hold down the option key while starting iTunes and select the location of your new library

There are known issues with Yosemite, if that is the OS, but according to this site, someone has made Yosemite work with almost all CS/CC versions.
http://roaringapps.com/apps?index=a
For a specific CS3/Yosemite issue, namely CS3 crashing on opening under Yosemite, this solution,
1) Open System Preferences > Java
2) Wait for the Java Control Panel to load
3) Open Adobe Illustrator (while keeping the Java Control Panel window open)

So you want to move the iPhoto Library?
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

Why won't my edited RAW images show after a LR re-install onto a new Hard Drive?

Hi there. Recently my hard drive took a (hike) and crashed - data may or may not be recoverable (Geeks are working on that), and I needed to reinstall my CS5 and Lightroom software to a new hard drive (I had to buy a new one). All of my RAW photos are stored on an external drive and were not harmed, thankfully. Here is my dilemma. Most of the presets I used also went crashing with that hard drive, (yes I believe they were backed up but also on that hard drive...stupid I know-trust me I know!!) but most of them were the free ones from the adobe recommended users on this site. I actually found many of my favorites still posted on the Adobe site and re-downloaded and installed the presets I'd been using the past year and a half, and imade sure those presets were housed properly in their folder via Preferences in Lightroom. Great. I can continue on with my work. WRONG! When I went to go import a recent shoot that I had already edited, it imported the RAW files but none of the previous edits I had worked on for these photos were showing up...it was as if I didn't even touch them and they came right from my camera. What in the world is going on? I'm baffled...and freaking out as I have thousands upon thousands of edited shoots in RAW, and I fear that none of the edits and enhancements made to those photos are going to be present and I'll have to start over. Please tell me that all of my last 2 years of editing photos are still with the RAW files?!!!
I found a deal on a an HP Intell Core i7 processor) 2 TB hard drive tower, so I ended up needing to install the 64 bit versions of CS5 and Lightroom 3.6.
I did test out the RAW (.NEF) file in Photoshop CS5 and my edited RAW image came up "correctly" - so I know that the information is still with the RAW image...I just need it to work and show in lightroom, as it is easier to export the files to the sizes I need them to be.
Please be kind in your replies...I appreciate any help/guidance I can get on this. Plus the photos I need are for Seniors graduating in a few months here so you can imagine the panic mode is just a bit higher than normal. Many thanks.

The default location for the backups created by Lightroom on exit is in the same folder as the catalog itself (i.e. that would be on the same faulty drive). It is, however, possible to redirect those backups to a different destination, such as a different hard drive.....but only you know if you did that or not. Do you have any other backups, e.g. drive level backups?
Just to be clear, if you are importing afresh into a new catalog from Raw files that do have XMP sidecar files, you should see the final edited state from the previous catalog, but you won't see the individual history steps that got you there (as that's one of the things that are not included when you write XMP data from within Lightroom). If there is no XMP sidecar, you'll just get the original OOC image.
