Hello, I updated my MacBook with OS X and lost all my photos (about 7 years of photos) on iphoto (now empty). Are they completely lost or is there a way I can retrieve them from my computer?

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

I have just deleted a set of very important photos from a shared folder on my iphone 5 not realising that they would also be deleted form my photostream - is there any way I can retrieve them?

No.

I just got the iPhone 5 and took it on a trip and took a bunch of photos on it. I just came home and hooked it up to my Mac for the first time and hit restore. All of my trip pictures disappeared. Is there any way I can retrieve them?

Did you by chance have photo stream turned on? If so then they might be there. When you restored your phone it deleted everything and they will be unretreivable from your computer.

HT203167 I bought and downloaded the Ricky Gervais' Audiobook series "A Guide To" last year off of my old iPhone. Since i bought my new iPhone the audiobook dont show up in my purchased items list. Is there a way I can retrieve them without having to pay

Sorry, but audiobooks cannot be downloaded more than once without charge. You will need to have the audiobooks in iTunes on your computer so you can sync them to your new iPhone. If the audiobooks are not in iTunes and you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

If you had no other backup....NOPE! However, if you purchased your songs from iTunes, check out: iTunes Store - Finding Lost Music FAQ

My iphoto events were not transformed into albums in Photo. Is there a way I can retrieve them?

My iphoto "events" were not transformed into albums in the new Photos for Yosemite, and therefore I am back with my bulk pics, not filed. Is there a way I can retrieve the classification I had made, please?

Whenever you connect iPhone in iTunes, it syncs and a backup is created. Check backup folder if you have that time-stamped file saved.

Is there a way i can add music from my computer without deleting the music i alread have from a different computer?

No. iTunes will first erase everything from another computer. It is designed to work that way.

I lost all of my tabs when I restarted to install the update, is there any way I can retrieve them?

I restarted my browser to install your most recent update. I had 45 tabs, some of them opened months ago and never closed. When the new browser window opened all of my tabs were gone and it will not let me use "Restore Previous Session". Is there any way to retrieve those tabs? Its going to be virtually impossible for me to reconstruct even half of them and this is highly frustrating. I'm using my chrome right now because I don't want to touch my firefox just in case.

Nevermind, I found the button to restore all previously closed windows and it pulled my main window and a few others up as well.

I accidentally deleted photos from the trash while editing from the event folder. Is there any way i can retrieve them?

If you have iPhoto 11 then check the System Trash.
Any other version check out a file recovery utility such as File Salvage
Unless you have a back up, of course.

Is there a way i can record sound from my computer?

i am trying to record sound from a dvd. can this be done using garage band or itunes?

I heartily agree with the use of the "WireTap" software--it records CD quality AIFF files (saves them as QuickTime) of any sound playing through your computer and is verrrrry easy to use. It used to be free (which is how I got it via versiontracker awhile back) but it is now available in a "pay" version. Free versions are readily available on old MacAddict software discs from a year or so ago. If you need that version, feel free to email me and I'll send you a spare.

If they are not in your photostream, camera roll or computer you may be able to restore if you have backup from the time that pictures were there. Do you?

Back from where?
You choose to not copy them off to a computer as they are designed to be.
If they are no longer showing in iCloud, they are gone.

I recently bought a new computer because the screen on my other one cracked. I didn't get to back up or keep any of my music or apps but they are still on my iPod Touch 4G with iOS5. Is there any way I can transfer them to my iTunes library?

I recently bought a new computer and my other one crashed. All my songs, apps, videos and moviesa are gone but they are still on my iPod Touch 4G. Is there any way I can transfer them to my iTunes Library? (Most of them haven't been purchased)

Use 3rd party software like:

I was syncing everything to itunes and I tried to do my contacts, not knowing quite how. I ended up erasing all of them from my phone without any of them syncing to my computer or itunes. Is there any way I can get them back? I really need them all.

There are lots of ideas floating on the web for this particular issue - all of which I tried. I had the same problem and it turned out to be my USB cable. I thought the cable was fine as it would charge my phone and play but the data transfer pin was bent. I replaced the cable and it fixed the problem. Worth a shot as it is an easy fix!
