Problem to recover my list of music I bought : I changed my computer !

Hi, you are supposed to back-up your library (just like any other important data) and take it with you when you move computers. Imagine moving house but not taking your possessions with you. Your new house would be empty. It works the same way with computers and your files, at least for now. iTunes is becoming a cloud service so that, like Gmail, or Facebook, all your data is available from wherever you log in, but the music aspect of that service is currently only available to US users. If you have data on an iPod or other device your should be able to transfer it back to iTunes.
If you haven't already dones so, autohorise your new computer to your iTunes account and then open Edit > Preferences > Store. In the Automatic Downloads section you can tick Apps and Books, US users should also get an option for Music. After enabling these options all your existing purchases in the relevant categories that are still available in the store should be available to download. Even with the cloud backing up is a good idea.
If you don't have access to any other copies of your media, and are not based in the US, then if you contact the iTunes store via the report a problem link in your account and politely explain the circumstances they may sanction a further download although they are under no obligation to do so.
Note that even if they do this once they are certainly unlikely to do it again. I noticed a rant elsewhere on the boards from someone moaning that they wouldn't restore his purchases after a second hard drive failure. To paraphrase Oscar Wilde: To lose your data once may be regarded as a misfortune. To lose it twice looks like carelessness.
In future you should make sure that you keep adequate backups of all your purchases, your iTunes library files and anything else you wouldn't want to have to go to the trouble of re-ripping. Ideally you should backup the entire iTunes folder.
Fast backup for iTunes library (Windows Only)
Grab SyncToy 2.1, a free tool from MS. This can be used to copy your entire iTunes library (& other important data folders) onto another hard drive or network share. You can then use SyncToy periodically to synchronize or echo your library to the backup. A preview will show which files need to be updated giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the new or updated files will be copied saving lots of time. And if your media is all organized below the main iTunes folder then you should also be able to open the backup library on any system running the same version of iTunes.

I am a teacher and I would like to format my page in PAGES to have lines...similar to that of lined paper. Is this possible?

Hi Jay,
I've played with this before, but I was never happy with the result. I gave it another shot to answer your question, and I'm pretty pleased with this result. I'll say that you have a lot of latitude for adjustments in this template, so don't take it as being restrictive to what I'm illustrating. For instance, you can easily vary the line spacing, the weight of the lines, the color, etc.
In this example, the pitch of the lines is 32 points per line, blue stroke, and I placed a light yellow shape in the background. Here's the approach...
Open a blank Word Processing Template.
View > Show Layout.
Pages Preferences > Rulers > Ruler Units: Points.
Insert > Table.
Set the Table to 1-column, 0 Header Rows, and Footer Rows, Row Height = 32 points.
In the Wrap Inspector, set the table to Floating, and Does NOT cause Wrap.
Align the Top Left of the Table with the top Left of the Text Area.
Increase the Column Width until the single column extends all the way across the Text Area.
Increase the number of Rows until the table just fills the vertical Text Area of the page layout, plus one row..
Set the Outside Cell Borders to None.
Set the Mid Horizontal borders to Blue.
With the entire Table Selected, Arrange > Send Object to Background. Format >Advanced > Move Objects to Section Master, Arrange > Lock
If you want the colored background, Insert > Object > Rectangle. Graphics Inspector > Stroke > None. Color > your choice.
Stretch the Shape to cover the entire page size. Arrange > Send Object to Background. Format > Advanced > Send Objects to Section Master.
If the colored object is obscuring the lines, then: Arrange > Send Backward. In either case, Arrange > Lock.
Paste a good size paragraph (several lines) into the document.
Select the text. In the Text Inspector, set line spacing to Exactly and 32 Points.
Inspect the alignment of the Text and the Lines. If you are not pleased, Select the Table and bump it up or down with the vertical Arrow keys.
If you are satisfied, with the overall effect, Select all the Text and Type: Click here and enter text. Select the text "Click here and enter text." and Format > Advanced > Define as Placeholder Text. Lastly, File > Save as Template.
As I mentioned at the outset, you can easily modify these instructions to increase or decrease the number of lines per page, the type size, etc.
If you want to email me, I'll send you a copy of the template I displayed here.
Regards,
Jerry

We just got a new computer and I would like to download all the music on my ipod to the computer. How do I do this? Thank you.

I would like to download all the music on my ipod nano to my itunes account on my new computer. How can I do that? Thank you.

Can I still get music from the iTunes store and add them to my playlists?

When I run Advanced System Care by IoBit I always get many privacy issues that need to be removed from my computer and I would like to have Firefox stop this.

I run Advanced System Care 7 by IoBit on my computer daily. It always finds dozens if not hundreds of privacy issues caused by FireFox that need to be removed. I would like to continue using Firefox but will uninstall it if the program keeps causing so much clutter on my machine. I have a Compaq Presario F730US running Vista Home Premium. I do not want FireFox to place ANY cookies or other items on my computer.

So first off, Advanced system care is a piece of junk. It does nothing to improve computer security or performance, and can actually harm your computer. I strongly suggest you remove any iobit products immediately and find a real anti-virus.
Second, cookies can be controlled. They aren't placed on your computer by Firefox, but by websites. You would find that no matter what browser you use you will have cookies from websites you visit.
[[Cookies - Information that websites store on your computer]] explains what cookies actually are.

My iPhone is broken, and I would like to edit my contacts. As I have already synchronised it with my computer, what is the procedure to collect this list? Thank you in advance.

Hello,

In iTunes if you have your contacts synced to Address Book just open address book on your computer and start editing.

I have 1 ipod but have diffrent acounts. my computer is setup for my ipod 4th gen that i had stolen and i would like to sync all of that music to my older nano. is there a way to do that without wiping out all my old songs that were on my nano?

so i have one ipod and it is a 2005 ipod nano. i have plugged into my computer and i cant get to the music on it. i am trying to burn it onto a disk or even a diffrent folder on my computer so i can just have select songs on my ipod. the reason i have 2 diffrent accounts is because i made a new account for my ipod 4th generation and it got stolen. so now i have my older ipod. is there a way to get it onto my computer with out wiping all my old songs on it?

iPods do not work with "accounts." They work with your iTunes library. You don't have to set up a new iTunes library for each iPod. One iTunes library can sync with as many iPods, iPhones, and iPads as your own, at the same time. iTunes connects to and treats each device separately.
However, if your iPod nano is set up for automatic syncing with an iTunes library that is NOT your current iTunes library, you cannot sync your current library to it without replacing its existing content. Do you have access to the previous iTunes library, the one the iPod currently synced to? If so, you should transfer your song files from that iTunes library to your current iTunes library. Then, sync our iPod to your current iTunes library. You can post back to get more info about the procedure.
If you don't have access to that previous iTunes library, the approach is to first offload the song files from the iPod to your computer's drive, then add the song files to your current iTunes library.
You cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store. However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
You can then sync your iPod to your "consolidated" iTunes library.

Your serial number is the most important part of your software. Guard it with your life and store it safely. It's the only thing you really "buy" when you buy software. It's unique to you and is crucial for re-installing.
Try signing in to your account on the Adobe website and see if your serial number is listed there.

HT4314 I would like to see the list of games I have paid for.

I just saw I received two credit card charges from Apple Store that I don't recognize. I would like to see what apps/games were downloaded so I know which of my kids knew my password and ordered on their own. How can I get a list of what was purchased for my ipad.

When I try to download a document, Firefox always takes me to the same subdirectory on my computer, and I would like to change that to a different subdirectory but cannot figure out how.

I don't really have any more details than what I set out above.

Hi Shayes,
You can change the default download location by going to ''Tools > Options > General''. The [[Options window - General panel]] has some extra information on all of the options available.
Hopefully this helps!

Hundreds of my email addresses that were in my personal address book have disappeared. I did not delete them and I would like to recover them. Help!

Hundreds of email addresses have suddenly disappeared from my personal address book on Thunderbird. Gone. Previously, I would begin to type in a name and the system would complete it, now that is only possible if the email is stored in the address book. Some email addresses remained, but most have been wiped out. What happened? Where did they go and are they recoverable? This happened within the past week. Thanks for your help!

First, don't try to find and reimport or move photos via the My Photos search in the left hand pane of a Finder window. That's a sure way to further damage a library.
Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
