  • How do I authorise my Imac for Itunes after replacing the hard drive?

    Dear All,
    Apologies, but I am new to forums and understand that the issue of "Authorisation" of Itunes purchases and rentals has been done to death!  However, I have tried everything and have exhausted normal research on the Net, there doesnt seem to be standard sollution to my problem.   I have replaced the Hard Drive in my Imac 2008 with an SSD which makes the Imac very fast and effcient and completely clean of the usual trash in an old computer. So before renting my first movie, I did the following:..................................
    Formatted the hard drive and downloaded and upgraded to OSX to 10.5.8 (the latest I can go on this Imac (I think) Intel 3.06Ghz 2 core and 4GB SSDRAM) 
    Upgraded Itunes to the latest available
    Upgraded Quicktime to the latest available.   
    I rented a film which will not play and initially I got the "not authorised on this computer" message which kept repeating despite saying it was "waiting"
    So I did the usual apple support search and tried the following:..................................
    I checked that my apple User ID and password where up to date and that I was purchasing on the right ID
    Tried the standard.....Itunes/Store/Authorise this computer  -  tried unauthorising and then re-authorising No luck
    I tried deleting the  (/Users/Shared/SC info) file  No luck
    I tried the Terminal based solution  "sumo chmod -R 777 /Shared/Users" fix It didnt work either
    I don't get the authorisation warning any more but just get a black screen with a grey horizontal stripe across the middle
    I would be very grateful if somene could give me another sollution to try............................
    Thank you very much,
    Sfithy

    Double & triple check that you installed the hard drive correctly.

  • How do I restore my phone from a backup on a hard drive?

    I just bought a new iPhone and my computer which had the back up from my old phone broke. I have the hard drive from my computer inside another computer. How do I access my old phones backup from the hard drive, through iTunes and onto my new phone?
    NOTE: it's not an external hard drive, it is a PC hard drive that I installed into another PC to access it.

    Hi
    This may help it explains where backups are stored on your computer:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946
    Some people have said that they cannot access it directly because of it's format. However, there are programs that will allow you to see and extract data from the backup, a google search for iphone backup extractor might help you out here.
    Hope this helps

  • How do I download a move from itunes onto an external hard drive?

    For whatever reason, my hard drive onboard does not have enough space for a movie to download.  I don't want to take the time to clear the space, since the one thing Apple makes harder than a PC is seeing which files are the biggest for cleaning off hour disk.  I have an external drive with plenty of space, but can't seem to get itunes to recognize it as a destination.  How can I download my movie onto it swo I can them transfer it to my iPad?

    luckily there are 3rd party tools that can help with that:
    Disk Inventory X
    WhatSize
    I have an external drive with plenty of space, but can't seem to get itunes to recognize it as a destination.
    before downloading the movie, go iTunes > preferences > advanced and point iTunes media folder location to the external.
    iTunes will put new additions to your library where ever iTunes media folder location is pointed.

  • How to keep using existing Time Machine backup after replacing main hard drive

    The hard drive in my iMac (Lion) is failing. I cloned it to a new drive and installed it in the iMac. Now the system wants to start fresh with a whole new Time Machine backup.
    It seems obvious that there must be a way to keep using the existing Time Machine backup set, but I can't figure out how to do it. Help, please.

    If you had done a full system restore from Time Machine, it would have been done automatically.  But 3rd-party cloning apps don't leave a "trail" so Time Machine can figure out that the new drive has all the old stuff on it.
    Effective with Lion, there is a way to "associate" the new drive with the backups of the old one, but it requires the use of Terminal.  See #B6 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.  As noted though, this only works on directly-connected backup drives, not backups made over a network.

  • How do you restore previous backup from iTunes to iPhone?

    How do you restore previous backup from iTunes to iPhone?  I did something wrong as now nothing is on my phone but several questions such as language, etc. They keep repeating.  When I turn phone completely off, the same thing happens when I turn it on.  It is very frustrating now to have no phone service or anything at all on my phone.

    It sounds as if the phone is waiting to be activated. Did you update software or something like that on the phone? You can either try to finish the Setup routine, or you can connect the device to iTunes on the computer and then after selecting the iPhone in the device pane, click on the button that says Restore a Backup.

  • Lost music from iTunes after upgrading MacBookPro to OS X Yosemite

    Lost music from iTunes after upgrading MacBookPro to OS X Yosemite. Has anyone had this problem? How did you re-import all your lost music? My iTunes currently only contains all of the music I have purchased from the iTunes Store but nothing that was burned to my iTunes. All of my music files still seem to be located on my hard drive within the iTunes folder but they did not re-import into the library during the upgrade to Yosemite. Thanx for your help.

    Hi OrangeOAK,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you still have the music on the computer but need to re add it to iTunes. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.
    Adding music and other content to iTunes - Apple Support
    Adding content on your computer to iTunes
    iTunes helps you add digital audio and video files on your computer directly to your iTunes library. You can add audio files that are in AAC, MP3, WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless, or Audible.com (.aa) format. If you have unprotected WMA content, iTunes for Windows can convert these files to one of these formats. You can also add video content in QuickTime or MPEG-4 format to iTunes. To learn how to add these files to iTunes follow the steps below.
    Open iTunes
    From the File menu, choose one of the following choices:
    MacAdd to Library
    Windows
    Add File to Library
    Add Folder to Library
    Navigate to and select the file or folder that you want to add
    If iTunes is set to "Copy files to the iTunes Music folder when adding to library," iTunes will copy all content that is added to the iTunes library to the iTunes Music folder. To adjust this setting or change the location of this folder, go to the Advanced tab in iTunes Preferences.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a great day,
    Mario

  • How do I restore a file to iTunes after I deleted it using Keep File?

    I wanted to shorten the list of visible files in my laptop's iTunes Music folder without losing the actual music.  So I selected Keep File.  Now I want to bring some of that music back. 
    How do I restore a file to iTunes after I deleted it using Keep File?

    Assuming the track file is still there, either use the Add To Library command under the File menu in iTunes and select the tracks you wish to add back into the iTunes library, or find the track files on your hard drive and drag them into the iTunes window.
    Regards.

  • How do I overcome error 150:30 with a replacement system hard drive on a Mac Pro?

    I have replaced my system hard disk drive on a Mac Pro and used Mac 'Restore' to restore the complete system from a Time Machine backup. Everything else works correctly, except my current Adobe products (InDesign CS4 and Photoshop CS4) both give a licensing error code 150:30 and each suggest contacting Adobe technical support.
    Can you help?

    Thanks for your reply. Is it necessary to uninstal the existing CS4

  • After replacing the hard drive on my G4 Powerbook and reinstalling Tiger I am no longer able to synch between itunes and itunes, it seems that the software on the ipod is of later date than itunes and I am unable to update itunes to the state prior..

    After replacing the hard drive on my G4 Powerbook and reinstalling Tiger I am no longer able to synch between itunes and my ipod (Classic 160gb) it would seem that the software on the ipod is of later date than itunes and I am unable to update itunes to the state prior to the original harddrive's failure for Tiger OSX 10.4.11
    Any ideas on the subject would be most helpful
    Thanks in advance
    Dingoh

    The last security update released for Tiger users was the 2009-005 update. The latest version of QuickTime is 7.6.4. The last version of iTunes that can run on Tiger is 9.2.1, because 10.0 only supports Mac OS X Leopard and later.
    So, are you on version 9.2.1?
    Was it Tiger or Leopard you had on the drive before?
    iTunes 9.2.1 download...

  • How do i get back my audiobook back on itunes after deleted off hard drive

    how do i get back my audiobook back on itunes after deleted off hard drive

    Audiobooks are not available for redownload. If it is still in your recycle bin recover it from there, or your backup, or if it is on an iDevice reclaim it with transfer purchases.
    Last restort would be to contact the iTunes store support staff and explain the circumstances in which you lost your only non-backed up copy and ask if they could possibly reissue it. They have no obligation to do so, but you may get lucky if you ask nicely.
    And please, make a backup!
