Lost my apps when I bought new computer
I bought a new computer and when I signed on to itunes I had to either transfer purchases or erase. I chose transfer and when I did my apps were no longer in my itunes account to be able to be synced. They still are on my itouch but not the my apps place. How do I get my apps back? Thanks.
Welcome to the discussions,
did you authorize your computer? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
apps can be downloaded again for free if you're using the same account again: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
You can find a list of your purchases by logging into your iTunes account.

Help!!! LOST MY SERIALS when I bought new computer!!!
I have been using Final Cut Suite for about six months. They were used DVD's I bought off eBay. The serials worked fine when it was installed. I rescently bought a slightly better G4 and switched over my hard drives. Now most of my programs are asking me to re-serialize them in order to use them!!! I have found all my serials except for Final Cut Studio (with FCP5) which is a dang expensive program to lose the serials for!!!
Since I wasn't the original purchaser it won't do me any good to ask Apple for them.
What can I do???
PS- At the same time I switched the HD's I also did a software upgrade from OS 10.4.2 to 10.4.3-- maybe this caused a problem???My only suggestion for the serial number problem would be to contact the seller to see if they can help. You could always call Apple and see what they require as proof of purchase, but the seller should have included all of the documentation for FCP otherwise the license transfer wasn't legal according to FCP's licensing agreement, in which case you may be SOL.
In the future, you may find it helpful to keep a database, spreadsheet or text document with all software registration and activation numbers listed for each version of software you own.
Best of luck,

If you sync to another it will first erase the content from the iphone, then replace with content from the new computer.

How can I tell from my serial number when I bought the computer
I was trying to tell when I bought this computer to see if I can upgrade to Maverick. Is there a way to find out with the serial number? Thanks
LesUpgrading to Mavericks
You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?

Lost all contacts when manually adding new ones
Lost all contacts when manually entering new ones, how do I get them back? This is 2nd time this happened
Same thing happened to me this evening. I had 1700 contacts and was editing several contacts adding birthday and anniversay dates. After entering dates successfully into the second contact, I did a search for a third contact and got "no results". That's when I noticed that I had no contacts - not a single one. Tried turning iPad 2 off and then back on - but no joy - zero contacts. Not even an error message or beep or system reset - contacts just disappeared. I suspect they are still on the device, but the Contact app link to the contact database file on solid state hard disk becomes corrupted.
APPLE - This is a HUGE bug that needs to be fixed IMMEDIATELY!
I have iPad 2 - 64gb - 3G/Verizon with 30 GB free. ios 4.3.3
I hadiTunes set to sync my Contacts with Google Mail
Additional info
- Resyncing with iTunes restored 1752 contacts
- I had recently used (24 hours earlier) "Dup Remover" app which worked beautifully, I which I have used successfully on my iPhone. To be clear - running Dup Remover did NOT cause this problem, but I mention as this loss of contacts may occur as a result of a unique set of actions on iPad 2. -
Why is "photo booth" giving a message saying "no camera attached" when it has a web cam? it did work okay when I bought the computer six months ago?
I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
You can't "copy" your photos to the "library manager", there is just no way to any such thing.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Hello,
I would recommend taking a look at the article below for more information about migrating your iTunes library.

Lost my apps when I upgraded my iPhone 4 with ios6 any idea how I can get the apps back
Lost my apps when I upgraded my iPhone 4 with ios6 how do I get them to reflect on my home screen
Another way is to just easily go the App Store on your iphone or ipad and look under purchased arrow. Click on it and all your apps you've downloaded or purchased are right there, no connection needed. Just hit the icloud button and download them. The reason I think you "lost" them is you forgot to back them up to your original back up on your mac in itunes.
I can now see all my apps via icons right in itunes, which is cool for me.
If your apps are in itunes then they should, should have backed up to your restore. If they didn't that's weird.
Too many people are screwing up the update by not SLOWLY reading the instruction options when they begin, not Apples fault. Also, so many people are impatient and thinking that when it says "restoring" "backing up" they freak and think they are losing everything and prematurely stop the upgrade, unplug or whatever.
People take a deep breath. This is a MAJOR undertaking for Apple and all of us.

Am I able to use a federal employee discount and student discount together when buying a new computer? I work for the government, but am also a full time student at a university. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with that and knew if you were allowed to do this?
No. Since I have friends working at Apple, I can get an employee discount. Since I'm also attending school in Asia, do you think I can get an employee discount AND a student discount?
