I can't burn dvd. It tells me my superdrive is missing. How can I get that back

You forgot to add what Mac you are using and what version of OS X, but Superdrives do not go missing, although they can develop faults.
If you are running Lion it may be that it not the Superdrive that is missing, but the iDVD application:
Whilst Macs with a Superdrive continue to be able to burn video DVDs, the software for so doing, iDVD, is no longer included in the iLife bundle that comes with OS 10.7 Lion (which also omitted iWeb) or will come with OS 10.8 Mountain Lion. And it is no longer included in the iLife 11 from the online Apple Store: http://www.apple.com/ilife/. Your only solution is to look on Amazon or eBay and try to get an older version that includes iDVD.
However, the vastly more expensive FCPX can burn a DVD without iDVD or DVD Studio Pro involvement, but lack the themes etc of iDVD. Also, of course, there is Roxio Toast.

I upgraded my Itunes to the latest version and now it won't let me view my library with the column browser. Can i get that back?

i upgraded my Itunes to the latest version and now it won't let me view my library with the column browser. Can i get that back? I tried using the shortcut for it and nothing happens. When I try to do it from the view menu, it shows up as something I can't click on. The new library format is driving me crazy and I just want to get back to the old library view.

We need to sort out some facts here first:
• You cannot be running Mt. Lion on your iMac G5. What Mac is it? What is the Model Identifier listed in About This Mac; More Info; Hardware Overview
• What is the model of your Epson Scanner?
• Have you attempted to scan using Image Capture, located in your Applications folder?
• Your Palm Pilot software will only run in Snow Leopard; so depending upon which Mac you have, you will either have to:
1) partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it to "dual-boot" when you want to access you Palm software, or
2) install Snow Leopard Server (now available from Apple for $20 telephone orders USA & Canda only) into Parallels 8 to run your Palm software in Mt. Lion:

I got sound back, but I no longer have the iTunes Radio! How can I get that back?

I got the sound back after resetting, but the iTunes Radio did not come back! How can I get that back?

Check the songs are really not in the Music section of the library by clicking the magnifying glass in the search box and unticking Search Entire Library if it is ticked, then typing in the name of the album. If the tracks still don't show try closing iTunes and deleting a hidden file called sentinel from inside your iTunes folder. This should make iTunes run an integrity check on the database when you start it again. Make sure the tracks are checked before you try syncing again.

I need help!! I hadn't plugged my phone into itunes since my computer crashed. I had the option of creating a new phone or restoring to a backup. I didn't really understand the options, so I thought itunes would give me a warning before wiping my device. It didnt, and now I've lost everything. is there a way to get it back?
If you used icloud to store contacts and calandar then you should be ok there. Also you can redownload any purchashed apps, music, videos, books and anything else you purchashed off itunes. The only thing you might be missing is photos you have taken on the phone, unless you had photo stream activated, then they would be there and you could pull them down into your camera roll. The only other data that would be missing is game data or any other data that apps had stored on the phone. That is why I recommend that anyone with a 3GS or higher should use icloud, photo stream, and itunes match. With those you will never lose any data ever again. You can even do backups to icloud and you can restore straight from the cloud, no itunes required.

I updated my iphone and everything disappeared. How can I get that back?

I upated my iphone 3g today and when the update was finished all my contacts, photos, txt messages, and everything was gone. How can I get all that back, or atleast my contacts? Please someone help!

You should be syncing your contacts/calendars to your computer regularly ( Outlook for example).
Sync them back.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPhone_iOS4_UserGuide.pdf
EVERYTHING on your iphone should always be on your computer as well and included in your regular backup copy of your computer.

HT1296 I was using the iCloud for my iPod and had recorded an important Voice Memo on the device. Before I was able to store it on my computer, the device stopped working. I have the data on the Cloud, how can I get that back to my iMac?

I was using the iCloud for my iPod and had recorded several irreplaceable Voice Memos. It went up to the Cloud, but I wasn't too savvy with the Cloud at that point, so it wasn't syncronizing to my home computer. So, the thing is that the iPod died and the backup is in the Cloud and I would like to load the backup to my iMac to recover my data. How can I do that? Thanks

The new device I got to replace the iTouch is a iPad and I don't see the playlist I created with previous voice memos on it at all. Is there any way to access them on the iPad? If I erase the iPad and restore it with the old back up will the Voice Memos come along and get in to my home computer or will I be out of luck?

I do not hav a navagation tool bar so I can enter web addresses and no forward or backward arrow. How do I get that back on my firefox

I had tool bars that i did not want. My husband deleted them and that is when the problems began. I lost the yahoo tool bar that allows me to enter in a website. I also do not have a forward and back arrow button to toggle between website pages. I uninstalled firefox and re downloaded it. But still no bar that allows me to enter in web sites. How do I get back the tool bar that allows me to type in web sites

Hi writelil,
Try right clicking in the header right next to a tab. In the context menu that opens up, be sure to check ''Bookmarks Toolbar'' and ''Navigation Toolbar''. You can find more detailed information in the [[Back and forward or other toolbar items are missing]] Knowledge Base article.
Hopefully this helps!

Why did 4.0 get rid of the Save Tabs upon closing option? How can I get that back?

When I go to close my browser, now that I have updated to 4.0, it no longer allows me to save my tabs. Why not? Can I have that option back please? (Why would you make an updated version LESS functional?)
Please tell me how to get that option back.

So now we have to go one extra step? Previous version would bring up all saved tabs automatically when it was opened the next time. Very handy when using FF at work.
That's what I would like to have back.

I duplicated a Pages document but didn't save it. Can I get that back?

I write a monthly newsletter for my organization. Every month, I use the same format, so I duplicate it and then work off the old document changing what I need to. I had limited sleep the night before I was working on it and went to close the original pages document (last month's newsletter) and was actually on the duplicated page. When it asked me if I wanted to save changes, I thought, "of course not! That's the old document!" So I closed it without saving. Turns out, that was the current newsletter I was halfway through. Is there any possible way to get this back? I really hope so. It was a couple hours of work I'll have to replicate.

Hi rvapohl,
If you did not save at least once, then I am afraid that your work has evaporated.
You don't say what version of operating system you are using. Please update your profile.
If you are using a Mac with OS X Mountain Lion, you can find "Save As..." under the File menu by holding down the option key. Far more intuitive than "Duplicate".
Regards,
Ian.

The back/forward buttons on the tool bar only go one page at a time. I used to be able to click a drop-down and select how far back/forward I wanted to go. How can I get that back

I can only navigate back/forward one page at a time. The drop down box that used to allow me to see the recent pages and select the page I wanted to go to was immediately to the right of the "forward" button. I can right click over the forward/back buttons and get the dropdown list of recent sites.

Use right-click on the back/forward buttons to bring up the context menu, the drop down was never needed, and I had suppressed it for a long time to save space.
that is item #5 in the following, you might want to check out other items there.
You can make '''Firefox 6.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''
* http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface
There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.

on my other PC that was win. xp the personas would change on their own without me doing anything never knowing what would come up next, it was really sharp you got a taste of them all. How come I can't do it now? Seemed like you had better ones too.
