IDVD crashed, and can't restore it form iLife 06 Disc, Help!!

Dear all:
My iDVD 6 crashed after I upgrade my Macintosh HD from 500GB to 750GB HD (I used apple's disc utility to clone all data from 500GB to 750GB HD, and it seems working just fine until today...)
I try to launch iDVD but it did not response and keeps telling me that "DVD Menu 2.mov" is missing, I've check all the DVD menu clips at both Macintosh HD Application and my home folder Libarary/Application Support/iDVD/installed themes...
It seems to me that every file is in place! So anyone know how to solve this problem?
thanks in advance!!
Kevin

I used apple's disc utility to clone all data from 500GB to 750GB HD
I don't recall hearing THAT approach being used before - I'm not at all sure Disk Utility will get all the invisible and hidden files you need from all over your hard drive.
I think you really need to use something like Carbon Copy Cloner to do what you described. http://www.bombich.com/software/ccc.html
Edit: Kev, I've asked for additional help on this issue from individuals more familiar with cloning issues.

IPhoto crashed and can't restore

My iPhoto program crashed this afternoon. I have repoaded iLife '09 twice, and loaded all updates, but I still see a subdued icon with a line through it caliming there is missing pieces are damaged files. What to do?

Exactly how are you trying to restore form TM?
Have you tried rebuilding your iPhoto library?
And your comments indicate that you may not understand iPhoto at all - you should not be inside the iPhoto library - there are no user servicable parts in it - and iPhoto does not duplicate photos - more details of yoru work flow would help sort this out

Hard drive crashed and can't restore backups

I have an older model Macbook (circa 2006). The original 120GB hard drive crashed, yes I got the dreaded white screen of death, and I replaced with a new 500GB hard drive. I had backups of all of my data stored to my Time Capsule, but am unable to restore my laptop because the backups were on OS 10.7 and I receive an error message that my OS must be updated.
The install disks that I was able to reboot with after installing the new hard drive are 10.5.8. I found a Snow Leopard disk (10.6.6) but when trying to run an install received a message that it cannot be installed.
How am I supposed to restore my backups and get to the corre?
This is my current system:
Model Name:          MacBook
Model Identifier:          MacBook3,1
Processor Name:          Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed:          2.2 GHz
Number Of Processors:          1
Total Number Of Cores:          2
L2 Cache:          4 MB
Memory:          2 GB
Bus Speed:          800 MHz
Boot ROM Version:          MB31.008E.B02

If the drive fails to appear in Disk Utility then it's most likely died. You can try this:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
The flashing question mark means system files are damaged assuming the drive is OK. In this case just reinstall Snow Leopard. All your user accounts and data will be preserved.

How do I deactivate a license from a computer that crashed and can no longer be accessed?

How do I deactivate a license from a computer that crashed and can no longer be accessed? I cannot use the software on my new computer because of too many users.

Will you please provide a specific telephone number or chat link? I seem to be in a loop, that gets me back to the same place:
I click on your above link ...
Then Deactivation and sign-out problems
Then Error "Activation limit reached" or "Sign in failed" | Adobe products
Then Can't access your previous computer?
Then "Don't have access to the previous computer on which you installed the application?Contact us. Be sure to have any purchase-related information ready."
"Contact Us" takes me back to "Need help?", which eventually directs me to this forum in the first place.
Thanks you.

When I statred iTunes match I lost some of my music and all my playlists, has anyone had this problem? And can I restore it?

When I statred iTunes match I lost some of my music and all my playlists, has anyone had this problem? And can I restore it?

Restore your media from the backup of the computer created prior to restoring the computer.
You did create a backup, correct? Not doing so would be extremely unintelligent.
iOS devices are NOT backup devices.

My iphone suddenly crashed and asked for restoration, however itunes sends error message of host not available (3014), what should I do?

Try -
Error 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194: These errors may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being redirected or blocked. Follow these steps to resolve these errors:
Install the latest version of iTunes.
Check security software. Ensure that communication to gs.apple.com is allowed. Follow this article for assistance with security software. iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.
Check the hosts file. The restore will fail if there is an active entry to redirect gs.apple.com. Follow iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting to edit the hosts file or revert to a default hosts file. See section "Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows) > Rebuild network information".
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

HT1553 I want to do a clean install of Mountain Lion. Can I do this without a DVD version of the OS, and can I restore only specific things like iPhoto and iTunes libraries from Time Machine backup.

I want to do a clean install of Mountain Lion. Can I do this without a DVD version of the OS, and can I restore only specific things like iPhoto and iTunes libraries from Time Machine backup.

Mountain Lion is only available as a download, so there is no DVD to purchase. What you can do is download ML and then stop it from installing as soon as it's on your drive. From there you can make your own bootable ML flash drive.
When your purchase and download Mountain Lion, it will end up in the Applications folder and automatically want to install. Press Command+Q to stop the install and exit. The installer will remain on the hard drive.
1) Right click on the installer and choose "Show Package Contents".
2) A folder will open on the desktop. Drill down to Contents > SharedSupport and double click the disk image InstallESD.dmg to mount it on the desktop.
3) From here you can either burn a DVD, or copy the contents to a flash drive. Personally, I would strongly suggest using an 8 GB flash drive formatted as Mac OS Extended. You will be able to boot to it in about 30 seconds instead of at least 10 minutes off of a DVD, and it will install MUCH faster. Make sure the flash drive is empty, or you've copied anything off it it you need as it will need to be erased.
4) Don't just drag and drop the contents you see in the open disk image to the flash drive. It won't boot that way as it will be missing some hidden files. Open Disk Utility. You will something similar to this:
5) To accomplish the above, highlight either the flash drive's single partition (as I did), or the item at the bottom (Mac OS X Install ESD), which is what you will see with the Lion disk image mounted. It doesn't matter which one you pick. You'll then have the option to select the Restore tab towards the upper right. Drag and drop from the left column into the Source and Destination fields as shown above. If you've already erased the flash drive, you can uncheck the box. Click the Restore button.
You've just made your own bootable Mountain Lion USB Flash drive installer. Once you boot to the flash drive, run Disk Utility first to erase the drive you want Mountain Lion on, then continue with the install.
As far as restoring your iPhone and iTunes libraries, I couldn't tell you. So I wouldn't do any of the above until someone else chimes in with a way to do that after a clean install of ML.

When I switch libraries I lose the majority of the material in my main library and can only restore it by repairing the database. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can resolve the problem? Thanks

When I switch libraries I "lose" the majority of the material in my main library (or at least I can't see it) and can only restore it by repairing the database. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can resolve the problem? Thanks

I seem to have found a way around it. Rather than switching libraries by going into files/switch libraries I used Aperture Preferences to change them. I've done it a couple of times and it appears to work OK.
That is an interesting finding. It suggests, that your "Preferences" file "com.apple.Aperture.plist" may have been corrupted and you fixed it this way. Can you now switch between libraries the usual way? If not, I'd try to remove the "preferences" file from the user library to the Desktop and relaunch Aperture.

You don't, nor do you need to.
When you reach the limit of 5 then you can deauthorize all.

Since I've installed Mountain Lion, I am having lock up issues with multiple programs. MS Outlook has crashed and I've lost all my folders. HELP?

Since I've installed Mountain Lion, I am having lock up issues with multiple programs. MS Outlook has crashed and I've lost all my folders. HELP?

okay I've finally been able to get tor and all the other programs to work according to my plan the only thing that's still making problems is that iptables doesn't work as I want it to, when I start chromium without proxy settings privoxy doesn't seem to forward the information to polipo.. do I need to add another rule to iptables.rules in order for the program to know it has to reroute the information again or how can I get this to work? and is there any way to run rtorrent with proxy support?
anyway, problem 2 and 3 are still to be solved.
and does anybody know where i can get a good dansguardian blacklist that was not designed for 6 year old children and for which I don't need to subscribe? I'm still getting these partypoker popups -.-
//e: with iptables it's the same thing as described in the first post. https works, http doesnt. I get the output "Invalid header received from client." on http sites. still no idea why though.. (and the https-version of torcheck.xenubite says i'm tor unprotected while starting the browser with iptables)
