HT2476 I recently had the hard drive replaced on my Macbook Pro; now the app store icon is missing from my dock
When my hard drive was replaced by Apple, I had to re-install iTunes myself. Then I noticed that there was a question mark on my dock where the App Store Icon was supposed to be. I did a software update, and now the question mark is gone. How do I get the App Store Icon back on my dock?
Locate it in the Apps folder and drag it to the dock.

Error message when I try to print: unsupported document-format"application/vnd.cups-command". I recently had my hard drive replaced in my early 2010 21" iMac. Anyone know anything about this? Thanks in advance.
What system are you running? Have you tried going to the Canon website to download and install the latest drivers for that model?
Are you running Time Machine? -
Is it possible to increase the hard drive capacity on my Macbook Pro?
is it possible to increase the hard drive capacity on my Macbook Pro?
If you feel confident, you can do it yourself.
If not, Apple can do it for the small matter of money.
If you go to http://eshop.macsales.com/installvideos/
Find you Mac on this page it has videos that show you how to replace the disk drive.
After you view the video then you can make your mind up as to which is the correct way for you to go.

Hi!
I recently bought the new MacBook Pro with the new retina display, but since it does not have a dvd/cd drive, I was going to buy an external one. I think I will be able to use it to watch dvds, but can I also play the computergame The Sims 3 on it? If not is there anything else I can do?
Thank you!Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can try formatting the external drive on your eMac using Disk Utility and choosing a well-known format > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html. It's quite possible that your new iMac would be able to read it, but first, tell us which formats Disk Utility lists.
If you have those songs in iTunes, simply go to Music folder and copy the iTunes folder to the external drive. Then, connect it to the iMac and copy the iTunes folder to Music folder.
If they are not in iTunes, copy your songs to the external drive. Then, connect it to your new iMac, open iTunes and drag the songs into it -
Moving the Hard Drive to a new Macbook Pro
I am going to be switching from a MId 2012 13.3"/2.5GhZ Core i5 to a Mid 2012 13.3"/2.9GhZ, Core i7. Can I just swap out the Hard Drives, assuming both Macbooks are on the latest version of Mountain Lion?
Thank youAll you need is a 00 (double zero) phillips screwdriver. Done right means not screwing anything up like stressing the HDD cable when you are disconnecting or reconnecting it or buggering up anything else while you have the bottom off.
One tip. Do not disconnected the battery. Although some guides suggest that you do, it is not needed and can only cause problems if it isn't disconnected or reconnected properly. -
I recently had to have my hard drive replaced on my macbook pro,
when i got it back it doesnt have imovie, iPhoto, or photo booth on it. how do i get thse back without paying for them through the app store?
Did your Mac come with reinstall DVDs? If it did use the Applications DVD to reinstall the iLife Apps.
If your Mac came with either Lion or Mt Lion then logon to the Mac App Store and they will be in your Purchases area. -
New hard drive replacement on my MacBook Pro.
I bought a new hard drive for my laptop but I do not have the disc to reboot the new hard drive, can someone help me?
Do you know the exact model you have?
You can try booting while holding down Command Option R keys. If you have a more recent machine it'll boot to Internet Recovery. -
I have already backed up my iPhone, yet it still will not allow me to move the contents of my phone onto my computer. Rather, it wants to delete everything off of my phone and replace it with the contents on my iTunes. Is there a way I can integrate both my iTunes and iPhone? There used to be autofill on iTunes, but I can no longer find it.
Hello there, DollyVong.
The following Knowledge Base article has great information and steps to follow on getting purchased content from your iOS device to your computer:

I've recently had my hard drive replaced in the Apple Store.
I used time machine to backup and after I got my mac back with the new hard drive I restored all my files which are now on my computer and I can access it with no problems.
The problem is that I've changed my username (admin) and when I enter time machine, I can't access the backups of my old hard drive which is really frustrating.
A red negative sign appears on most folders. Also in macintosh HD/users there is a folder named with my old username and I get the same red negative sign in the folders.
Any idea what can be done about this?
If you need more info just ask.
Thanks in advanceTurn Time Machine OFF temporarily in its preference pane. Leave the window open.
Navigate in the Finder to your backup disk, and then to the folder named "Backups.backupdb" at the top level of the volume. If you back up over a network, you'll first have to mount the disk image file containing your backups by double-clicking it. Descend into the folder until you see the snapshots, which are represented by folders with a name that begins with the date of the snapshot. Find the one you want to restore from. There's a link named "Latest" representing the most recent snapshot. Use that one, if possible. Otherwise, you'll have to remember the date of the snapshot you choose.
Inside the snapshot folder is a folder hierarchy like the one on the source disk. Find one of the items you can't restore and select it. Open the Info dialog for the selected item. In the Sharing & Permissions section, you may see an entry in the access list that shows "Fetching…" in the Name column. If so, click the lock icon in the lower right corner of the dialog and authenticate. Then delete the "Fetching…" item from the icon list. Click the gear icon below the list and select Apply to enclosed items from the popup menu.
Now you should be able either to copy the item in the Finder or to restore it in the time-travel view. If you use the time-travel view, be sure to select the snapshot you just modified. If successful, repeat the operation with the other items you were unable to restore. You can select multiple items in the Finder and open a single Info dialog for all of them by pressing the key combination option-command-I.
When you're done, turn TM back ON and close its preference pane. -
I am trying to upgrad the hard drive in my mac book pro using the disk utility in an attempt to clone my old hard drive. I can only get so far throughj the process where its about to start cloing when I get a message " error 254". Any idea what that means and how do I get around this issue so I can use my new hard drive? Thanks for your input.
VinceConnect the HDD to your MBP. Open Disk Utility>Erase and drag the HDD icon inrt the Name field. The format should be Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Click on the Erase button.
Then try the clone process again. You may use Disk Utility>Restore or a third party cloning application such as Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper.
