Lost discs, do I have to buy logic again?
Lost data disc due to fire. I still have the serial numbers via email from apple.
when i buy a new mac mini next friday do i have to buy it again?
Hey sekhem
I don't know a definite answer to your question but I have some experience with the Apple staff in my country. Apple is very well organized and they know who registered their software digitally after the installation.
I once bought a Logic Pro 9 Upgrade for a colleague as he had Logic Express. It was the wrong upgrade however, it was the upgrade from Logic Pro 8 to Logic Pro 9 and NOT the upgrade from Logic Express to Logic Pro 9. So I tried to bring it back and replace it with the correct upgrade version.
The friendly Apple salesperson looked up if the copy of Logic had been already activated (which was not the case as the colleague realized it was the wrong upgrade version when he tried to install it) and by paying the difference I could get the correct upgrade. Even though the box was opened!
To cut a long story short: Apple knows if you registered the software and I'm sure if you ask in one of the Apple shops and give them your name and your serial number they might organize discs for you. I was pleasantly surprised about the Apple customer care several times so it sure doesn't hurt to ask.

CS6 lost disc. Do I have to buy it again?
I bought the CS6 and promptly lost the disc before I could download it onto my computer. I still have the box, it has a sticker with some codes on the bottom, not sure if those would do anything? So my question is, do I have to buy it again or will the codes on the box help me download it online? Thanks.
You can download it online without anything special. The part you need to be concerned with is whether or not the number you see on the box is the serial number. You can install the trial version and use the serial number to activate it to full use. Here is a link that might help you out as far as identifying the serial number:

(do not post your number online for anyone to see)
As far as downloading the software goes, here is a link to a page in the Adobe site:

You can also download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site or else the download will not work properly.

Itunes has lost my purchase song list but all the albums are list as complete my albums. The ones i have purchased are tell me i have to buy them again. Not happy Itunes not Happy Apple.
How do i fix it or does apple have to fix it on there end?If the single songs are no longer available in Itunes, that would also explain why you aren't able to see your purchases.
If the songs are on your phone you can transfer purchases to iTunes app on your computer. You wouldn't be able to download them again though. -
HI, SO I BOUGHT MOUNTAIN LION ON MY MACBOOK PRO TRYING TO UPGRADE FROM SNOW LEOPARD, AND WHILE TRYING TO REINSTALL THE OS SETUP AS IT SHOWED IT COULDNT BE VERIFIED, I CROSSED OUT MOUNTAIN LION FROM MY PURCHASES, ITS NOW GONE, DO I HAVE TO BUY IT AGAIN?
Please google search for "Mountain Lion disk crash" before upgrading you mac pro. You might need to replace you Mac hard drive after the upgrade.So many people had the same problems including me.
Be aware of the Mountain Lion upgrade problem. -
I downloaded Lion from the App Store on to my iMac and did not save it to a thumb before installing. Do I have to buy it again to install it on my Macbook Pro and iPad, or is there another way to do that?
All my electronics are about a year old. iPad is Model MB293LL (4.2.1) only wi-fi - no phone.
MacBook Pro is OSX 10.6.8 Build 10K549. Also have an AT&T iPhone that I basically use as a Palm, since I changed carriers.
Thank you for your help.
ps: I got an error message and it looks like this did not get posted the first time. 2nd try.Open the Mac App Store on your MacBook Pro
Hold the Option key and click on “Purchases”
Hold the Option key and click on “OS X Lion” from the purchased app list
“Installed’ should now say “Install” which allows you to download OS X Lion.
This assumes you are using the same Apple ID on both computers.
Lion does not get installed on an iPad. It runs iOS. -
I bought a 16gb iphone 5 about 3 months ago and got applecare. yesterday I had to get on a different plan within the same company so i traded in my phone and got a new 32gb iphone 5. can i transfer my applecare to this new phone or would I have to buy it again?
As this is a WW forum with different AppleCrare offerings you need to specify which Country
as in North America has AppleCare+ and everywhere else AppleCare ,very different products
So to avoid incorrect guidance suggest you specify Country -

Just did an update to GarageBand on my iPhone 4. Have had GarageBand since 2010, and now with the "new" version, I have to buy the complete instruments package to get a fully functioning version. I already bought this app once, why was I migrated to the new "free" version just so I have to buy it again?
Just tap on one of the in-app purchaseable instruments and at the bottom of the screen there will be a "Already purchase?" text. Just tap it and you will be asked for your user name and password (use the one that you bought Garage Band with). It worked for me.

When i want to download a bought movie... It says that i have to buy it again, what do i have to do?
What happened to the 4 movies that you purchased and downloaded direct with your iPad?
Were the movies deleted from your iPad before the movies were transferred from your iPad to your iTunes library on your computer?
If the movies were deleted from your iPad before transferring the movies to your iTunes library on your computer, you will need to purchase the movies again. -
Bought Quicktime Pro and my computer died, do I have to buy it again?
I bought Quicktime Pro back in 2006, recently my laptop died and I had to get it a new harddrive. I still have the serial number cause I bought it online. But it says it's an invalid number and I can't use it. Do I have to buy it again?
Thank you!Make sure you're entering in both the user name and key code exactly as in the email Apple sent you. Any error in either, including leaving off a salutation (for instance, if the email says "Mr. John Smith") will cause the registration to error.
Hope this helps. -
Hi all when I send a text to a contact (iphone4s) the contacts name changes to a phone number and the name is lost. I then have to resave it again, googled it but can't see anyone with the same issue, any ideas ?
There is another setting for "Start Conversation from", that needs to be set to phone number.

I have bought and downloaded iPhoto 11 onto my MacPro. Do I have to buy it again to download it onto my MacBookPro?
No just log into the App Store from the MBP and use the same Apple ID.
You;re allowed to load the software onto as many Apple computers than you own.

I had Iphoto on my computer when i bought it and now had to reinstall a new hard drive do i have to buy it again?
reinstall from the original source
Could be
1 - the restore disks that came with the computer
or
2 - the iLife DVD that you purchased
or
3 - the app store - log in under the Apple id used to purchase the software or to set up the computer - look under purchases - you might have to unhide or accept the Application first

It may be that if you already bought the iPad versions using your iTunes account, you get a discount on the Mac versions? (That's just a guess - it applies with FileMaker, but I don't know if it does with iWork).
There is no discount for one version of the iWork apps due to owning the other version.

Migrating text formatting from InDesign CC to Flash CC
Since TLF is no longer supported in Flash CC, does that mean that maintaining the integrity of the type from an InDesign layout to Flash is no longer possible? Is there a possible work around? I'm designing content for interactive labels for a museum
