Had to get new hard drive and need to reinstall iTunes

My very new PC went beserk and I had to get a new hard drive. Everything off the old drive is irretrievable. I have my iTunes library backed up to an external drive (everything is also on my iPod). However, I don't want to have to "count" the new computer as one of the five machines on which I can copy my iTunes library, since it's not technically a "new" computer but just a replacement of my not-so-old one, which was barely 9 months old before it went kaput. Is there a way to reinstall iTunes and my library without getting dinged for yet another transfer of the library? Thanks.

Hi I can't figure out how to post a question of my own, so I'm asking it on this one because it is close to mine.
I just switched from a Sony Viao to a MBP, and tried to transfer my ITunes library from the Sony to my new MBP using a USB stick. I put all the music in my music library onto the stick, it said that it used 4.99 GB, and when I tried to put the music onto my MBP it only added 1.98 GB.
I thought that maybe the music it wasn't transferring was the music I purchased on my earlier laptop, but it transfered a few of my movies that I purchased off of ITunes. Please Help?

Computer Crashed, Got New Hard Drive, Trying to Sync iPod

I recently got an iPod and uploaded hundreds of my albums into it. Shortly after that, my computer crashed, and though I was able to recover a lot of stuff, my iTunes library was decimated. I have a new hard drive now and when I went to add some stuff to my iPod I was told that I had to erase everything from this iPod and replace it with the new stuff because my iPod doesn't recognized this librarly. I guess my iPod is still "synched" with the no longer existing iTunes library lost in the crash.
Does this mean I can never add anything to my iPod unless I laboriously transfer hundreds of albums again and then add from there? I hope not!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Ipod mini and a new hard drive

My old hard drive completely died, and I've had to put a new one in to my computer. I got most of my word documents on to a ZIP disk, but one of the things I was not able to save was my MP3 files. I had a bunch of mp3 files burned from my CDs, as well as a bunch downloaded from itunes and various other sources. They are all still on my ipod mini, but nowhere else. Is there any way that I can get those mp3 files off of my ipod mini and on to my new hard drive? If not, what will happen when I try to update my ipod mini with new mp3s that are on my new hard drive?
Please advise. I am very scared that I have lost my entire music collection.

Richard,

Hp 6310y can't get new hard drive to load windows 7

model 6310y -- Windows 7 home premium 64 bit
My desktop PC stopped working. I took it to local computer store and they said it was HD. I bought new hard drive and tried to install retail Windows 7 home premium 64 bit OS. I got an error message Code 0x80070002.
I called HP support....they told me I needed their brand of recovery discs because the motherboard or BIOS wouldn't allow me to install Windows 7 on the new replacement HD w/o it being their (HP) discs. So I ordered them...$17
I bought another new HD and tried to install Windows 7 OS with the HP recovery discs. This time got Error Code 0xe0ef000e.
I should mention both times trying to install OS on new replacement HD...it got approx 8 to 12 minutes into installation before getting error messages.
I called HP support....this time was told that the retail version of Windows 7 OS should have worked and that I didn't need the HP brand recovery discs when installing new replacement HD. They offered me to pay $199 and send them my desktop to fix it....all inclusive fix.
Very confused. I have never encountered anything like this before...I've had mulitple hard drives die over the years and have replaced them myself and installed all the software including OS myself w/o any problems like this.
Memory checked out ok when utilizing the diagnostics f9 key .... it did show problems with HD during one of my many diagnostic attempts
Not sure if its a bad motherboard or built in video card ..... not sure how to find out either....since I can't get the PC up and running
It will boot to blue HP screen & most of time won't allow me to get into f10, f9 or esc screens.
Not sure if its worth paying $200 to fix this or go and buy a new one for around the same price.
any suggestions or help is appreciated
thanks
This question was solved.
View Solution.

1) A retail OS should have worked. That particular motherboard's NVidia Sata controller chip had a bad batch. You need to make sure the hard drive is recognized in the BIOS. If not, nothing can be done.
2) Their brand of recovery disks was wrong, and was acknowledged. What about your $17 ??
If you had either a retail OS, or the recovery Disks that you made, these are acceptable.
The HP version when used with a new hard drive require conditioning "CyberLink Recovery Discs utility resolves an issue where Recovery Discs sent from HP do not work on a new hard drive".
Here's the list:

I need help in restoring data recovered from hard drive crash to new hard drive

I have the data that was recovered by a recovery service (long story) from my wife's hard drive after it crashed, which is now stored on my computer. There are two user data sets that have been recovered, one for each of us. I need to put each on my wife's computer with its new hard drive, which now has OSX 10.10.? (Yosemite) on it.
My wife's computer was running OSX 10.7 (Lion) when the hard drive failed and my computer is still running OSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).
I was told that I should use the Data Transfer Utility (starting my computer up while holding the "T" key), but I have forgotten what I have to do when I start up her computer. Are there any operating system compatibility problems that are sensitive to this process?

That is a Microsoft Windows question?? You should probably ask this question on Microsoft's Forums. BTW there is no "Windows 9". Only Windows 7, Windows 8 and apparently MS is skipping the number 9 in favor of 10.

Problem after getting new hard drive

Okay, don’t laugh but I think I am using Photoshop elements 1 and yes it works on windows 7. The systems information does say something about version 6.1 service pack 1. Anyhow it has worked great for no more than I do.
Last week I had to get a new hard drive. Supposedly everything was “ghosted” over from the old to the new.
Now my elements work well until I try to save the edited image. I then get “Could not save as "C:\...\SANYO4b.jpg" because of a program error”.
I uninstalled and reinstalled. Same thing. I searched Google for over an hour and the only thing I came up with to try was to change all my scratch disks to C.
Still no luck. Any ideas?

“If you right click on the Photoshop elements 1 shortcut and choose Run as Administrator, does the saving work?” YES!
Back to this “Permissions” Issue.
when I right click on c drive and go to
properties-security i get
group or user names (and this info about them)
authenticated Users- nothing checked
system- full control
Administrators (myname-PCAdministrators)- full control
User (my name-PC\Users) only has checked
read and execute
list folder contents
read
The others (full control, Modify, write and special permissions) are NOT CHECKED.
Thinking this might be the problem, when I started to change the “User (my name-PC\Users)” to full control I got the warning that “changing the root directory of the startup disk can result in unexpected access...etc.”
Could this be the problem and if so should I let those warnings about dire consequences stop me?

Cheapest place to get new hard drive

When buying a new hard drive for my power book G4, where is the cheapest place to do it?
Also the cheapest way to have it installed?
The apple store would cost $500 to $600 they said.
I do NOT want to pay that.

How do I get my music libraries realigned after getting new hard drive?

New Hard Drive, No Access to ITunes Library on Old Hard Drive

My hard drive died yesterday, and no data recovery was possible, so I lost my ITunes library, which was made up mostly of songs that I had imported from my extensive CD collection.
I have no backup CD with the library on it.
I had hoped that I'd be able to transfer over the songs from my IPod to the new hard drive that I had installed today. I downloaded ITunes and attached my IPod, and received a message stating that my IPod was synced with a different computer, and only had the option to (1) Transfer songs bought from the ITunes store, or (2) Sync with the new computer and erase everything off of my IPod.
I read a few help articles about using the IPod as a hard drive, but I can't do that as I don't have access to the original ITunes Library folder.
Any ideas?

There's an answer to your question but first it's time for a little lecture - if it makes a difference, I don't feel any better about this than you do. ; - )
I hope you take this unfortunate state of affairs as an opportunity to learn a very important lesson: Back up your iTunes library as soon as you can after resolving this situation because right now you are only one glitch of your iPod away from losing your music entirely.
Many people come to the Discussions having lost their music in just such situations and, believe me, it's not a happy time for anyone.
If you place any importance on your playlists and the data they depend on, make sure to include the iTunes Library files in your back-up regimen as well.
Anyways, that's the lecture. The answer to your problem should be found in Zevoneer's post .
Good Luck! But once you have the music back on your computer, remember:
Your music is valuable - please back it up!

Windows 7 won't load after installing new Hard Drive and Recovery software

HP G72 Notebook PC
xz218UAR
I guess a virus crashed my hard drive so I bought a new one. I installed the new drive and loaded the recovery disks that I also bought from HP. Apparently Windows didn't load properly and it keeps telling me to RELOAD WINDOWS. I've tried starting over from Disk 1 but it's not doing anything different to fix it.
I removed the new hard drive and reinstalled it but it's still doing the same thing.
What am I doing wrong and HOW DO I FIX IT?

Hi,
Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the 25 Character Product Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ).
Assuming that this is just a problem with the Recovery process, there is a straight forward work around if you have ( or can borrow ) a retail Windows 7 installation disc that is exactly the same version as your OEM installation - ie if your notebook came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit this is the exact retail version you would need.
If you don't have access to a retail disc, you can create an installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the correct Disc Image from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here. These Images are clean and from a well-respected source, however there are only limited versions available.
Windows-7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit
Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.

Drive crashed-have new hard drive, how to load music so Itunes can find it?

My system crashed, had everything backed up on an external. I am using an I: drive (it is a different and larger hard drive), vs. the original C: drive that crashed. What is the best way to load back my music so Itunes can recognize the songs and playlists. I have the most recent I tunes's library and music library saved. Is there another file that stores the original addresses to the songs? They are mostly mp3 files.
When I loaded the songs, I can only individually point to the new song. Do I have to copy the songs back to the C drive and then phsically move? Or can I somehow point it to my new my music folder? I have over 10,000 songs and quite a few playlists, so I don't want to do it manually.

Loop
Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

Then try restoring on another computer.
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

My old mac crashed and new hard drive has new Pages on it but I cannot open any documents. Says to save on 09, I had 08 but it crashed when the computer crashed. Now what?

Open with new Pages and it says my documents are too old, must be opened and saved in 09, but I don't have 09, just fragments of 08 from my crashed hard drive. What do I do now?

Do you still have your installer DVD?
Reinstall iWork '08 and upgrade it to v3.03:
http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewtopic.php?t=432&mforum=iworktips ntrick
Then open your documents and Export them to Word .doc/x to open in Pages 5.2.
You can also ask Apple to supply you with iWork '09 so you can access your work.
If that is unsuccessful, since Pages 5.2 is a severe downgrade, missing 110 features, get the iWork '09 boxed set from Amazon for $19.99.

I up graded my mac mini with a new hard drive and now need ios 10.9 how do i down load it so i can put it back on the mac

how do i get the ios 10.9 so i can put it back on the new hard drive

If the Mac mini shipped with 10.6.8 or earlier, install Mac OS X 10.6, update it to 10.6.8, open the Mac App Store, and download 10.9.
If the Mac mini shipped with 10.7 or newer, connect it to the Internet, restart it with the Command and R keys held down, and install an OS. If this isn't 10.9, open the Mac App Store and download it from there.

How would you re-install lion onto a crashed or new hard drive with no install disk ?

lets say my hard drive crashed or i bought a new one and wanted to install OS X Lion, due to it being a file you download , would you burn it to a disk or toss it onto a flash drive?

You could use either. There already has been posted information on the procedure: Burning A Lion Boot Disc.
Oh, I should add: it would require a Dual-Layer DVD or an 8 GB USB flash drive. You can also clone it to an external or internal hard drive or partition on a hard drive of around 10 GBs.
Cloning to disk drives should be done using Disk Utility or Carbon Copy Cloner. As of now SuperDuper! is an unknown. Use Disk Utility to burn to a DVD.
