I had my Ipod touch 4gen on itunes of computer that crashed. On new computer i updated it, hit the wrong button, and lost everything. How do i get my old songs, apps, and account money back?

I had my ipod 4gen itunes on a computer that crashed. With the new computer I update it to the lastest version. I hit the wrong transfer button and lost everything. How do I get my old songs, apps, and money back from my old account, if thats possible?

I cant find any of my recently bought songs or the apps i have purchased. When I was updating my ipod there was a button that asked about transfering purchases and I didnt read it, and I didnt update manually so i think thats why i lost everything. I clicked on the intrustions and clicked on apps and i coulnt find any of my old stuff.

How do I transfer purchased apps back from my compuer onto my IPAD? I have transferred my purchased apps to my computer, then updated my IPAD operating system, which erased my IPAD. I can't get my purchased apps from my computer back onto IPAD.

I have transferred my purchased apps to my computer, then updated my IPAD operating system as directed. This erased all my apps from my IPAD. How do I get my apps from my computer back onto the IPAD. Simple syncing does not seem to work. I also have another IPAD synced with this computer, if that matters.

Check the settings in iTunes.

Have new computer with new Windows 7, Palm m105, and 4.1.4 palm desktop, trying to get it to synch correctly.

With new computer I have had to add a USB serial converter to the hot synch cradle. I spent most of the day trying to get the new serial converter to be recognized so that a synch could be performed. It now will synch when I put the palm in the cradle. After installing 4.1.4, In order to get everything to work, I took a recent historicalbackup version of my palmOne program file folder in the Program files, and replaced the entire folder with my historical version. When I opened the desktop software, all my data appears to be there, except that many of my previous entries in the Calendar are now three hours earlier than they used to be and some are moved to an adjacent day. My palm still has the correct information, but a custom synch to overwrite the desktop data with the handheld data produces no change, even though it went through a long synching process. I also have an older computer that has a complete backup copy of everything and the palm software in that one is working properly, so what should I do to correct the data in my Calendar on my new laptop?

It looks like you will need to "clean" uninstall Palm desktop and re-install.
Here are the clean uninstall instructions for XP, see if the palm folders are in the same location. We have not received any info. on windows 7 and how Palm desktop syncs with this version.
You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something
happens. You can find your data files by going to C:\Program Files\Palm or
Palm One. Highlight your Palm Desktop username and right click and copy.
Then go to your PC desktop, right click on a blank spot and select paste.
If this is the first time you are installing Palm desktop and encountering a problem, skip the previous step.
For Palm desktop 6.2, look in the following location for the folders and files, my documents, PalmOS desktop. You will find the username folder in this location.
Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do
with Palm Desktop from your computer. Like the above folder, delete the Palm folder. Once this is done, you will need to delete some registry keys
from your PC Operating System registry.
Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC
to not start up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel
you are unsure of yourself, see if you have a friend that can help you or a
PC technician that you can pay to help you. This will show them everything
they need to delete. To retain your current Registry settings, we need to do a backup of the Registry.
On the PC, go to start and run type "regedit" without quotes
Highlight MY COMPUTER, go to File --> export. Should pop up with a Save As
box. Current location is fine should be in My Documents or you can change to a location you will remember. In the file name box, type "Regbackup[todaysdate]" i.e. Regbackup07072008. Next, the hard part.
The easiest way to make sure your working with the correct key, highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you, are
you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician.
BUT do not turn off your computer.
The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here
but if they are delete them)
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc.
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
Next reboot your computer
Then reinstall your Palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If it asks
you for a username, enter the name that is on your device in the upper right corner of the hotsync screen and sync.

Loaded the new version of Firefox, now I can't get it to open. I keep getting "the computer needs to reboot for updates. when I reboot, it still doesn't work. I tried to remove firefox from the computer, I get the same message. It won't let me remove it.

'The version of mozilla in my program list has 45.5 mb of space but when I look at the download it says it should only be around 15mb.

If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version and remove the Firefox program folder to do a clean install of the new version.
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

My MacBook Pro stated that it needed to be updated. I clicked yes to restart the computer and update but when it restarted it stays on the gray screen with the apple logo and then pops up, stating "unable to find driver for this platform." What do I do?

Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with networks that require any kind of authentication other than a WPA or WPA2 Personal password.
When the Mac OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the Mac OS. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac didn’t ship with Lion, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
Don't install the Thunderbolt update -- it's defective.

HT4972 Why can't I see the update download option under general? I need to download iOS 5

Why can't I see an option to download the ios5 upgrade under General settings

you can update an iPad 1 up to iOS 5.1.1 , you need to connect it to iTunes on a computer and update from there
For instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4623 and scroll down to the part that's about updating with iTunes
Please note that iPad 1 goes up to iOS 5.1.1, while iPad 2 goes up to iOS 6.1.3, the (current) latest version. You won't be able to ' choose ' iOS 5.1.1 on iPad 2, it will automatically update to the latest version possible.
Good luck
Stijn

Then maybe you need to buy an update.

How did you download it? If by the iTunes update button, just connect the iPod to the computer and click on update.

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

HT1222 I need to download an update

I would like to download the latest update, but cannot figure out how.

If you mean update to the iPad's iOS, then if you are already on iOS 5 you should have a Settings > General > Software Update option on the iPad for direct update; if you have iOS 4 on it then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes (you can also update via your computer if you are on iOS 5+).
To update via your computer, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11). You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
An iPad 2 will update to iOS 6.0.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple), and with iOS 6 you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change - though google have app versions in the store.
