I lost Appleworks in a crash

I got a new hard drive this last weekend. Didn't lose anything because I actually had everything backed up. Amazing.
I have had to reload all my programs, obviously. Problem I have is that I have alot of documents in appleworks .cwk form. My disk for AW is in Texas and I am not.
Is there some way (easy way) for me to convert them to something else without the AW disk or am I going to have to rebuy? And if I rebuy will 6.2.4 run on my powerbook with Tiger on it?

Welcome to Apple Discussions
I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you need to either have someone send the install CD to you or buy another copy of AppleWorks.

What did I do wrong? I used to have iTunes installed on this computer and lost it when it crashed. No I can't get past a certain point in the installation point. I keep getting an error message stating that I need to verify that I have access to this file

Help!! What's going wrong here. I used to have iTunes installed on this computer but lost it when it crashed. I've tried re-installing it numerous times but I keep getting the same error message. "Error writing to file: C:\ProgramFiles\iTunes.Resources\es.lproj\iPadLicense.rtf. Verify that you have access to that directory." I know I have access to that directory because on a different computer I can sync my iPad and iPhone. What am I doing wrong? What do I need to go in and authorize or turn on? Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you.

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Thanks. I will try this. My previous machine was running Vista and I
rarely compacted folders. NEVER had a problem. Apparently
Win 8.1 is more sensitive to this.

My downloaded version of Photoshop Elements 6 was lost when my computer crashed. How do I re-install?

My downloaded version of Photoshop Elements 6 for windowns
was lost when my computer crashed. How can I re-download?

Unfortunately there isn't a download available for PSE 6, so if you didn't save your original download, I'm afraid you're out of luck. The downloads available at adobe are mostly the trials for older versions and for PSE 6 you couldn't activate the trial by entering a serial number so it wouldn't help you any.

I sync a specific photos folder from my computer to my iPhone. However, that folder was lost due to a crash on my computer. But all of the Synced Photos are still on my iPhone. How do I retrieve all those photos from my iPhone?

If Windows - and it has iTunes installed - you should see an Autoplay explorer when you connect your iPhone - this should let you see the pictures and transfer them back to your computer
Wrong. That only works for pictures in the Camera Roll, not those in the Photo Album app.

Lost my appleworks in a crash. how do I get it back?

My hard drive crashed earlier this year and when the new hard drive was installed, I didnt end up with appleworks and garageband (and probably other things that I haven't missed yet). How do I get them back? Is it on the install disk that came with my computer. And if it is, will I lose what I have on my computer now if I do a reinstall? (I'm techno-idiot!)
Thanks for your help!

What Niel said, with a bit more detail.
Insert your (first) install disk.
Run Install Bundled software.
Deselect all software you do not wish to install.
AppleWorks will probably be listed as "AppleWorks Languages" witha disclosure triangle beside it. Click the triangle to show the list of AppleWorks language versions, then click the checkbox beside the version(s) you want to install.
Follow the prompts to complete the installation.
After installing, you should do a couple of maintenance tasks:
Clear the Recent Items folder (if there is one) at Mac HD > Users > yourname > Documents > AppleWorks User Data > Starting Points > Recent Items.
Delete the AppleWorks preferences and cache files at Mac HD > Users > yourname > Library > Preferences...
Delete the file com.apple.appleworks.plist.
Open the folder AppleWorks at this location and delete both Preferences files and both Cache files that it contains.
Launch Disk Utility, found in Applications > Utilities, choose Disk First Aid, choose your startup volume (Mac HD), then Repair Permissions.

Lost bookmarks after Safari crashed

I just realized I lost all bookmarks when Safari crashed. When it crashed, I did the test account and Safari worked there. Then went back to my account and dragged the cookies file out, it worked again. I didn't think that would have affected the bookmarks. Are my bookmarks somewhere to be found? Thanks, Vicki
power mac g5 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hello Vicki,
Did you trash the cookie.plist file & empty the trash if you did not empty it check the trash bin ? Moving the cookies.plist file out of the Cookies folder should not , I am sure it did not affect the bookmarks, something else must of happened.
Are you sure it was not the bookmark.plist file. Go to Home/~Library/Safari is there a Bookmarks.plist file there ?
Please let us know.

Lost photos as iphoto crashed- how do I get them back?

As I was downloading my photos from my exilim camera, iphoto crashed and I lost my photos. I pressed the download and delete from camera button as I usually do- so there aren't any files left on the camera. Can I open one of those files in the picture library that I have no idea what their function is about and find my photos?? Are my pictures possibly hidden somewhere. Please help!!
Powerbook G4 12" Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Isaac:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The photos in your library are in the User/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Originals folder. What happened is that the crash damaged the Library6.iPhoto database file, causing iPhoto to think there are no photos in the library.
You'll have to start over with a new library and import the Originals folder and subfolders into the new library. Move the current library folder to the desktop and launch iPhoto. When it asks you what to do select "Create library". Then drag just the Originals folder from the library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window. That will give you the same rolls as was in the old library but no keywords, comments, albums, etc.
To recover the files in the camera you can try MediaRECOVER. You can run it in the Demo mode to see what photos it will be able to recover before you commit to purchase.
In the future for insurance against the occasional iPhoto database corruption that you experienced I recommend that you make a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get you your library back. With that in mind by keeping it current I mean backup after each import and after any serious editing or creating that you might do in the library like making books, slideshows, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
Do you Twango?

Lost purchased when iphone crashed

After updating the Facebook app, my iphone crashed and I had to restore it. I have not synced to my computer in about 2 months. When I restored my iphone I lost the music that I have purchased in the last 2 months. It wasn't a whole lot, maybe about 25 songs, but still, that's $25 bucks!I have learned my lesson and just won't puchase music using the wifi itunes store ever again. Especially since all was fine until Facebook killed my phone. Please help me get my music back!

AppleWorks Spreadsheet file crashes

An AppleWorks Spreadsheet file which I have been using for over a year has developed a problem--it crashed the entire program.
Some symptoms include non-user initiated locking of cells, cell coloration, etc. Program seems to crash whenever the elevator, mutli-cell selection, or other quick command is issued.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hello
You didn't wrote which AW version you are using.
I assumes that it is not the 6.2.9 one.
What you describe looks like the behaviour of spreadsheet corrupted by the "autocalc on strike" bug available on every version before 628/629.

Re-Installing my lost music after hardrive crash

This is the issue. I spoke with an apple representative at the store today. I lost all my music from my itunes library due to my computer crashing, and I did not back up any of it. I bought a new MacBook today as well. They told me there was a chat session in Itunes support to speak to someone about getting all my music back, and they said that I would be granted the request one time to have all my music given back to me. However I can not see where or how I can speak "chat" to an Itunes rep. If anyone can help, it would be great. Thanks.

You can e-mail itunes support, but they are under no obligation to allow you to re-download. It may be worth a try if you do not have the music on an ipod.
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes
Click the appropriate category until you see the "e-mail us" button on the right.
If you have the music on an ipod, then you can transfer from there:
File>Transfer Purchases
"PRODUCTS CAN ONLY BE DOWNLOADED ONCE; AFTER BEING DOWNLOADED, THEY CANNOT BE REPLACED IF LOST FOR ANY REASON. YOU SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BACKING UP YOUR OWN SYSTEM"

How do you get songs back that have been lost in a computer crash?

About 2 months ago my windows had crashed. We fixed it and everything but noticed that all of the songs from my account disappeared. The file name was there but the actual song would not play. If i am to click on one it would say this.
The song " anything" could not be used because the original file
file could not be found. Would you like to locate it"
It would have an option where you could click yes or no. The first time it happened, I clicked on the yes and it would have me browse through all my files, of course none of the songs found. I have all the songs that I really wanted on my ipod nano still. Is there a way to load these songs back on the computer? Some of the songs are from cds as well as purchased from itunes.

If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod2PC Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
SharePod Windows Only
iPodRip Mac & Windows

Floola Mac & Windows
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these

All iTunes music lost after hard drive crashed

After upgrading to Snowleopard, I noticed my computer acting odd and constantly freezing. I took it to get checked and to back up all my data. I was told they could back up my data, wipe the hard drive and upload my data again...but then I was told that my data was encrypted, therefore it could not be restored. As a result, I lost ALL my files including all of my iTunes music. Is there a way to request a redownload from iTunes? I've been told by friends that only one request will ever be granted per customer. I really hope there's a way to restore my music. It's not like I chose to download my music illegaly. I chose to do it legally throuh iTunes and pay for my music. Please help me, my iTunes library was fairly large and I can't bare the thought of all of it being lost.
Any help and guidance would be extremely helpful. Thank you!

just a remark : of course each & every one should be responsible for one's music & as you say, if one looses all our cd's, the record store doesn't have to replace them - granted !
having said that & considering how much it costs Apple a download replacement service for such instances & how few people would actually use it , it seems to me it's a brilliant
''extra'' to add to the iTunes Store roster of features - one that makes it even more appealing ? : ''..don't worry , if anything goes wrong you can always get it back..''
i'd call this offering peace of mind ( VERY attractive.. ) others would call it good marketing policy - you pick !
