HT1766 I did 2 back ups on one date. how can I restore from first back up from same date? I don't see in my list of back ups as 2nd back up overtook first back up.

I was syncing my iphone with itune and there was a update which system started downloading then something happened and i had to restart my computer. when i restarted my computer, itune started backing up my iphone eventhought there was nothing left on it. now this second back up overtook my first back up
and in that process i can not back up to my first back up (as its from same date i guess) I have lost all my contacts. I did not have any icloud back up or my contacts are not being backed up locally on my computer either. if anyone knows how to find back up other than listed on back up lists, please help. Thanks

Can I add my existing, licensed apps to my list of 'Purchases' on the Mac App Store so I don't have to buy them twice?
No. Only apps purchased from the App Store can be re downloaded for free including updates.

How can i restore old backup without deleting my existing data

how can i restore old backup without deleting my existing data. unfortunately i have deleted few of my old photos and restored them from my old backup. i got the deleted photos but lost my recent data and photos. how can i get those too.

You cannot. However, if your back up is through iTunes on your computer and you do an internet search for something like "iPhone BackUpExtractor", I believe there is software that will help you access the SQL database that is your back up. You may be able to pull out what you need.
Once you restore from a back up, any data that was on the phone is gone.

HT201272 Having a bad day my iTunes library got corrupted and my back up disk has failed how can I restore my purchases from the iTunes store

Having a bad day my iTunes library got corrupted and my back up disk has failed how can I restore my purchases from the iTunes store? When I try it tells me the pruchases have already been downloaded to this computer.

Does your purchased rmusic appears under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) ? If they do and you don't have the cloud symbol against them so as to re-download them, then do you still have the entries for them in your library i.e. where you would normally click on them to play them ? If you do then try deleting them from there (iTunes will be seeing them and assuming that you still have them somewhere) and they should then get the cloud symbol for re-downloading in the Purchased link.
If you aren't in a country where music can be re-downloaded then you could 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,

I erased my all mac data, how can i restore them ?

hi
i erased my all mac data, how can i restore them ?

If you don't have a backup the only way is through relatively expensive recovery software. If you want to do that, stop using the computer immediately before the data is overwritten.
Is it still in the Trash?
For software suggestions, see Kappy's post here.

My Apple Calendar has somehow been deleted from my iphone 4s. I could not locate it from the apps that were backed up on itunes.
How can I restore the calendar. I have it on my IPAD. Can I get it from my IPAD to the iphone?

Re: That garbage is unreadable.
If you really want help, stop messing with the fonts and post so that others can read and offer suggestions.
Or better yet... try a search, I'm certain you'll find a solution to whatever issue you're experiencing.
I have found that many times it is the things that make you most angry that push you to action. This was the case here. Thank you for causing me to get so angry that I found the answer myself.

How can I restore the hard drive to an earlier date

I was wondering if there is a way to restore my computer to factory defaults like when I received my iMac, without a disk? I think it needs a good cleaning. It is running very slow and my web browsers keep freezing as well as skype. It doesn't matter which browser I use either.
Please direct me how to if possible.

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

If my most recent back up was using icloud, how can i restore my iphone to its previous back up, not the icloud one?

I recently got a new iphone from the apple store and i forgot to back up before getting one, so i backed up on the icloud for the first time, i had alot of photos ect so i chose to not back them up to save time when i was with my genius guy. But now all my photos are gone, obviously. But im just wondering if i could restore my iphone to the previous back up i had on my mac. Is this possible? I just want my photo stream back !
Thanks

If you are in the US then you should be able to download some or all of your films : re-downloading. If you are not in the US then have you not got them on your computer's iTunes and/or on a backup ?

I accidentally deleted the actual folders in my history "library." I need to get them back/make new ones. How can I do this?

I have searched support but only find answers like "wait a few days and the folders will return." I need all the standard folders back like "today", "yesterday", "last 7 days", etc. Thank you.

Apologies for jumping in. This will not be a quick fix or even a complete fix, it may not even work; but it may be important you act quickly to get any fix!
Better still swap the HDD over and use another OS to clone and recover !
I guess it depends on exactly what you did, and the efforts you are prepared to use to attempt to recover the History.
Immediately back up your Firefox profile. That at least preserves your rolling bookmarks backups and whatever History you do have. Preferably back it up to another machine.
Now consider leaving that computer alone and using another machine. You can always load that profile on another machine and use it (or preferably yet another copy of it) and see what it contains. (search for a colon : that covers most History)
Assuming you did delete the history then with luck and timely action you may get some of it back using an undelete utility. (Followed maybe with a sqlite editor to stitch portions back together) download something like recuva : http://www.piriform.com/recuva
Recovering a whole profile or a whole history is difficult and probably unlikely, but I seem to recall some have succeed with this in the past.

My old MacBook Pro crashed before I could back up my iTunes. How can I restore all my music from that computer to my iTunes on my new computer?

My old MacBook Pro (2007) crashed on me before I had backed up all of my music on my iTunes to another source (my iPod has also crashed so I cannot use the iPod to sync all my music). I now have a new Windows 8 laptop and have downloaded iTunes onto it with my Apple ID. Is there any way for me to recover all of my songs from my old iTunes account and put them in my new iTunes? I had thousands of songs and would like to recover them if possible. Is the only way to do this by getting an external hard drive and paying someone to get all that information off my crashed computer onto the external hard drive?
Thanks in advance for your help!

You can transfer songs that you didn't buy from the iTunes store but it requires third party software such as Suneti. This is one of the best programs I know for the task and unfortunately I'm not aware of any freeware programs that transfer music from an iOS device to the computer.

How can I restore a desktop iCal calendar from an iPad backup copy? The iPad is routinely backed up to the computer and still has the calendar on it but I cannot get it to display on my desktop.

One of several calendars was accidently deleted from the desktop. It is still present on the iPad and backed up to the desktop. Additionally, the iPad version can no longer be edited, copied or moved.

Thanks for confirming my approach.
I have tried your approach. I have a calendar with the most recent and future events; it is visible on all appliances; and, it syncs to the cloud without issue. I think I will wait for a very rainy day to transcribe five years of past events.
BTW, the corrupt calendar cannot be deleted from the iPad using any normal appoach; additionally, the events cannot be edited or modified except as described above. I will follow up with Apple but this calendar predates the iCloud and apparently there are known issues in moving those calendars to the cloud.
I tried restoring the calendar folder from Time Machine. It loaded initially, at least for the month I was watching as it loaded, and then deleted it again. So, the calendar I want to display still exists but is not accessible.
Thanks for your time and help. If I learn any more from Apple, I will pass it along.
Cheers, ...

How can i make 2 combo boxes as the same data source and group by each combo box items separately?

I have 2 combo boxes If I have data table like below
TableA
ID NAME
1 A
2 B
3 C
4 A
I make "TableA" as data source of "combobbox1" and "combobox2" like
combobox1.datasource = TableA
combobox1.displaymember = "ID"
combobox2.datasource = TableA
combobox2.displaymember = "Name"
I want when combobox2 select index at "A" , Combobox1 show only the items at ID = 1 And ID = 4
Thanks

This is not actually a question to be posted in SQL Server. Here is a link for ASP.NET forum.
http://forums.asp.net/
It looks like there is a filter that can be applied in .NET dataset and populate the results in your combobox1. You may get better help from .NET forums for this question.

I just moved from Germany back to the USA. How can I use an German iPhone 6 from T-Mobile in the USA?

Was your phone locked to T-Mobile? If so, it needs to be unlocked before you can use it here. I believe you can use it with AT&T or T-Mobile here, but you won't get 4G/LTE speeds.
