Lost my cd in my laptop

i inserted my CD  in my laptop and cant see it ,dont know how to retrieve it  

Are you able to see the contents of the disc? If not, it might be due to either a corrupt CD or a faulty CD drive. You'll need to check if you're able to view the contents on a different system.
If you're not able to get the disc out of the laptop, you can go to 'My computer' under which your CD drive is listed, and right click on it and select eject. If that doesn't work, you have the option of ejecting the disc manually by pressing the eject button on the CD drive itself. If that fails, you can try ejecting it by inserting an unbent paper clip into the tiny hole just beside the eject button on the CD ROM drive.

    I suspect unless he had some items in iCloud backup then they are gone.  Connecting an iPhone to a different library from that to which it was previously connected will result in the device asking if you want to erase it.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.

  • Lost songs that were on laptop before having to reformat... HELP!!!

    I have a laptop (HP Pavillion Entertainment PC). It froze up one night and my husband had to reformat the computer in order for it to work at all. I had tried to burn a cd that i had ordered on itunes before but it got screwed up, we were going to get a different cd drive cuz this one is messed up...
    either way, before we had the chance to do that, the computer froze and would not work, so her had to reformat the computer. I lost all my pix and this album that I had just downloaded... is there any way to get that back from itunes without having to buy it again?
    I tried to find a customer support link but it wasn't working... GAH! i'm so frustrated.. HELP!!!

    If you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
    "Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
    You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on any of the links on this page you'll find a space at the bottom to email your query: iTMS Customer Service
    If you have an iPod that still has the purchases on it 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

  • Photo effects are lost after transfering images to laptop

    Dear all,
    my problem is  the following: when I take pictures with my new iPhone 5 (using the regular camera  app), I always apply effects (color filters).
    In  my phone screen I can always see and send the taken pictures with the correctly  applyed effects.
    The problem appears when I transfer the pictures to my laptop (windows 7 system) through USB (with or without using iTunes). Then, all transferred  pictures appear on my computer WITHOUT any effects or WITHOUT any cuts which I did with the camera app. Is this normal?  Anybody has the same problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

    When you Insert a graphic from a file you should see a check box for Link. If unchecked the image should imbed.
    If you have previously Linked images then Edit > Links > Break Link should cause them to become imbedded.

  • "Edit In Photoshop Elements 5.0" Lost On Desktop; Still On Laptop

    After updating to ACR 4.3.1 and LR 1.3.1, I no longer have "Edit In Photoshop 5.0" available on my desktop. It has been replaced by "Edit in Photoshop..." and is grayed out. It's still there on my laptop. The only difference is that I updated LR first and ACR second on my desktop, but ACR first and LR second on my laptop.

    And you don't have to qualify with (Trial) the Only difference is the Serial Number entry letting you use it linger.

  • Lost connection of 2 client laptops to internet via LAN on WRT320N wireless-N dual channel router

    The connection of almost 2 yr. old router to DSL modum was unstable recently. They're hardwaired to my desktop. A Cisco customer rep recommended downloading an "upgrade firmware" for the unit, and I did that. It seemed to have made the internet connection stable for the desktop, but now I can't connect the both 2 laptops to the network. The network and its properties are detected by each of them, but it appears the internal setting(s) are now out of sync with those of the router. Any help.      

    Assuming your two laptops are wireless, after you upgraded the firmware an reset the router you have to reconfigure it.  You have to input your wireless network settings again and make them match with your laptops.  Has this been done?

  • Lost connection between ipod and laptop

    Hi there,
    Not sure if this is a question for ipod or itunes, but here goes.
    I recently purchased a 5th gen ipod and installed itunes on my 2 PC's and a PC based laptop. All worked fine.
    Now when I connect the USB cable to the laptop, I hear three quick beeps, (not the usual 2 beeps) my ipod starts charging, but I can't see the ipod in itunes.
    When I check device manager, there is an entry with a yellow question mark (labelled ipod) which says the driver is not installed. However when I load the itunes CD, the wizard says no drivers found.
    My ipod works fine on the 2 other PC's.
    I tried system restore but for some reason it fails to go back to any restore points. whether that's part of the problem or a red herring, I haven't a clue.
    Can anyone help?
    Many thanks

Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be copied and renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to an earlier state. Look for a recent .tmp file that is similar in size to the .itl files in the Previous iTunes Libraries folder. If it has happened repeatedly you may want the earliest such file generated since the last iTunes upgrade.
    If applicable, see iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.

    I've noticed more of these missing library posts of late and a common factor to most since I started asking is AVG Anti-Virus. It seems in some cases it might be at least part of the reason why the library file disappears. Try excluding the iTunes folder from any AV scanning process.
    Note: Sony VIAOs used to be be noted for a similar problem caused by a media manager app that shipped with them. If you have such it may be worth checking for updates to it with Sony's website.

  • After updating to Firefox 7, i've lost scrolling feature on my laptop touch pad

    After I updated to Firefox 7, the scrolling feature on the laptop touch pad would not work. My OS is Windows 7. I also updated my other laptop and the same thing happened. That one has Windows Vista as it's OS

    Try to modify the pref ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled on the about:config page from the default value -1 to 0 or 1 to see if that makes the scroll pad work.
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    *Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
    *Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
    *Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
    *Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

  • I lost my HD on my laptop, how do I get to the songs off my apple TV???

    About two weeks ago my HD crashed. I had it repaired and now when I try to access my apple TV it doesn't recognize my computer. All my music is on the HD of the apple TV. How do I get it back?

    This looks to be beyond my aptitude, but there may be a way to get your songs off the Apple TV without cracking open the case. Some of these folks are even running a full blown version of Tiger on their Apple TVs:

  • Lost Connection to Wireless from Laptop

    Just returned to Michigan from Miami with my Macbook 13" 10.4 2ghz. My daughter had no problem accessing the internet there but when i came home I can't connect to Comcast. Did Comcast change something? I don't think she changed anything.
    I open Safari and get the "could not connect" warning then click on Network Diagnostics.
    I select my location.
    Choose Network port configuration-Airport
    Select Airport Network
    Enter Airport info- Wireless Security:WEP Password and what I thought was my password (and several other possibilities)
    I click on Airport icon on top get the drop down and open internet connect.
    It says Airport power on, base station ID: Not avavilable.
    Do I need to do a new set-up?
    Please, if you have any suggestions I'll need it in a step by step format.
    Thanks Mr. McTev.

    Maybe Comcast is having problems..... here is another user having problems too.

  • HT203167 Help me restore my library....I lost all of it on an old laptop.

    Please can somone help me find figure out how to restore my lost library?? 
    My laptop crashed and when I took it to a technician to be repaired he could not restore my data.  So I lost everything on that laptop.  When I bought a new laptop and downloaded itunes, I couldn't remember my ID and password, so intunes prompted me to create a new ID and password.  The problem is once I created a new account, I lost all my old library. 
    I called Apple tech support and they said there was nothing I could do because without the old info on the old computer I was out of luck.  My ipod still has all my music though....I just can't add new music because the new itunes account doesn't recognize my ipod.  I don't want to lose what I have on my ipod because I have 1,000 songs.  So I don't want to restore the ipod back to factory setting.
    I want to have be able to use my same ipod, find my old library that is stored with my previous itunes account.
    I AM SO UPSET!!!  I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS FOR ALMOST A YEAR!!!  I know with today's technology there has to be a way to correct this and come up with a solution!!!  Please HELP me....someone ANYONE!!!!  LOL!!!
