HT201250 How do I restore a volume that no longer shows up in Finder?

I had a hard drive in an external firewire case. It came to a bad end. I have a Time Machine backup (Mac is running 10.6.8). How do I get to the backup of that volume so I can restore it?

Yes, there is a backup of that volume. I am 100% certain that it was being backed up.
My Time Machine backup is on another drive, an external USB2 device. I can manually go into the Time Machine volume and find the volume for the FW drive, but I'm not certain how well a restore will work just by dragging folders out of the Time Machine backup.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • How can I restore the music that was on my iPod to my computer or another iPod?

    My iPod classic has failed with an HDD error. I've tried recover mode and everything, it's goosed. Half my music was only on the iPod, a collection over the years from my various computers, it was backed up using itunes however. How can i restore the music that was on my iPod to my computer or another iPod? (dont have another classic, only shuffle and iphone) I'm guessing itunes holds some kind of virtual image of the ipod classic somewhere. THanks in advance for any info, google didn't produce anything I could use.

    That is stealing. Your friend does not have the right to give her music away. Delete them and purchase your own music.

    Chrome 'syncs' your information to its servers, so you can restore this information when you sign into your account, regardless of what device you are using. As for the latter part of your comment, I am not really following. I don't have Chrome currently installed on my machine so I can not help you step by step. All I know is you must SIGN IN to your google account on chrome and check the chrome preferences.

  • HT201272 How do I retrieve downloads that I purchased that no longer show up on my phone?

    How do i retrieve downloads that I purchased that no longer show up on my Iphone>

    What you can re-download will depend upon what country that you are in (music, films and/or tv shows can't be re-downloaded in all) and the type of item (audiobooks and ringtones are one-time only downloads) - the Purchased tabs in the iTunes and App Store apps, and in the ibookstore in the iBooks app, will show what you can re-download. If other items of the same type show there but a particular item doesn't (and it's still in the store) then you could check to see if anything is hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919

  • I have tried all sugestions for how to charge my ipad 2 that no longer charges, and nothing seems to work, can anyone offer any new advise?

    I have tried all sugestions for how to charge my ipad 2 that no longer charges, and nothing seems to work, can anyone offer any new advise?

    While both the iPhone and the iPad use an Apple dock cable for charging, the iPad wants a 1100 mA charger, and the iPhone charger's a 500 mA charger. USB ports on newer Apple computers can switch into 1100 mA mode, but your average computer is going to put out no more than 500 mA and, possibly, quite less (for example, an un-powered USB hub will only put out 100 mA or so, and an iPad won't charge off that). The iPad will say "not charging" if it is trickle-charging (receiving less than 1000 mA of power).
    If the problem persists when using the 1100 mA iPad charger, you need to take it to an Apple store and have it serviced or replaced. Bring the iPad charger that you received with the iPad as it may be that the charger is defective and not putting out 1100 mA.
    If the problem is that it charges slow because it's being connected to iPhone chargers or PCs or older Macs, then it's not a problem with the iPad. It's charging, it just takes a long time because you are using an under-powered charger.

    I have an older iPod that no longer shows up in iTunes or appears to be charging.  When I press the Menu and Select buttons, the Apple logo appears and then an icon of a battery with an exclamation point.  Is it dead for good?

    If it is otherwise working, you can change the battery.  If you want to do it yourself, you can buy the part on eBay and other online sources.  Just make sure you know the type of iPod you have so that you get the right part.

    There are online guides, including the ones on this web site
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod
    (Note:  Most replacement batteries come with plastic/nylon tools seen in the guides.)
    You can also have a repair business do the work.
    If it is just the battery, if you do a Reset (using the Menu and Select buttons) while it is connect to your computer, I think it should still be recognized by iTunes.

  • I replaced the battery on my RAID card, when I booted my mac pro up, I get the folder with the question mark. I used a boot USB drive to boot and when I looked in the RAID utility, my RAID 5 volumes were no longer showing, advise.

    Not sure if I'm following you. I have 4 hard drives installed on my Mac Pro. I had a RAID 5 configured and functional for about 5 months. My battery died on the RAID card. I replaced the battery, seated the RAID card back in the slot I removed it from. When I booted to the USB drive to look in the RAID utility, I could see the battery is charged but my volumes are not showing.
    The drives don't show in disk Utility. I built the RAID with the RAID Utility and they did show there. I have a early 2008 Mac Pro, Mavricks OS running Mac Server

  • HT201250 How do I restore from Timeline external backup to a different drive?

    Good day!  Here's my current architecture
    1 MacBook Pro OSX 10.8.2
    1 Lacie Rugged External Drive (1T)
    1 G Drive 2T RAID
    1 MyPassport External Drive (2T)
    I have been backing up weekly both the MacBook Pro AND the Lacie to the RAID Device. 
    Lacie Rugged: My Lacie has my iTunes.  Recently there have been issues with communicating with the Lacie.  Genius bar says there is an issue with the drive itself.  I purchased a new Firewire to troubleshoot.  Still shows that the drive accidentally disconnects (e.g. not available) after about a couple of minutes. 
    So I bought a new drive.
    Restore: When I plug in my new MyPassport and access my Timeline backups, I cannot see the Lacie backups to restore.  It seems that Timeline requires the original drive (Lacie) to be plugged in (which is the one I am having issues with).
    Question: How do I restore from a backup(Lacie) to my new external drive(MyPassport)?

    I imagine you mean Time Machine, not TimeLine. If you do mean Timeline, I have no idea what that is.

    How do I restore photos from Time Machine?  All of my photos have been imported within iPhoto and therefore are exported to Time Machine via an iPhoto file.  I can't figure out how to break individual photo files out of the iPhoto file.  Any ideas?

    You might post this query on the iPhoto forum and perhaps someone there can provide an answer.
    I tried this on my MBP and it seems that you have to restore the entire iPhoto Library.  What I did was put the current library in a separate folder on the desktop and then I restored the library from a prior date.  If you were to do that, you then could extract the desired photos and then delete the restored library.  Then place the current library back to the original location and import the desired photos.
    Not tidy but it seems it will work.
    Ciao.
