Moving from old to new hard drive, some songs lost track number in file nam

Anyone have thoughts on this? I changed to a larger hard drive a month ago. Copied everything over and things seemed OK. Synced daughter's ipod and things started acting weird. I compared old to new hard drive now and a bunch of songs are missing from the new drive but weirder is that some songs lost the track numebr in the name on the new drive - 04 loving.mp3 is now loving.mp3.
we can't find a pattern to why those specific songs are like that. any thoughts?

Sorry, never heard of that before.

  • OS X Lion Version 10.7.5 and after new hard drive I have lost iPhoto, iMovie, etc.

    I have the OS X Lion version 10.7.5 and after a new hard drive I have lost iPhoto, iMovie, Garage Band etc. I have tried the re-install of the OS X Lion and checking the app store under 'purchases' but none of these options were successful.
    When I click on iPhoto in the App Store, it says that it cannot update because version 10.9 is required (I tried to transfer iPhoto from my brothers computer but he has a newer laptop which means I cant open it whcih is why it says 'update' but have deleted it now). When I go to iMovie on the App Store, it says I need to pay but the only reason I dont want to do that is that it origionally came on the computer and after paying Apple to install a new hard drive I dont want to have to pay for all the apps that origionally come on it.
    Can someone please help

    Then you will need the Original System Reinstall DVD discs that came with the system to reinstall the iLife suite of apps then you can update them from the Mac app store or through Software Update.
    Those discs came in the box the computer came in. Hopefully you still have the box and those discs.

  • TS2776 Had to get a new hard drive, of course lost all my music in itunes. If I sync my ipod to itunes will I lose my music on my ipod??

    Had to get a new hard drive, of course lost all my music in itunes.  If I sync my ipod to itunes now will I lose my music on my ipod?

    Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device.  Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
    You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

    As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software to copy over.  A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

  • Transferring Purchased Music from iPhone to new hard drive

    Hard-drive burned up and has been replaced. Most music was backed up, but not all. And most of the new music (that hasn't been backed-up) is on the iPhone. But I can't copy the files on my iPhone back to my new hard drive. Obviously there are security measures to keep folks from transferring files all over the place. But it seems that if it's on my iPhone, I must have obtained it legally, and there must be some accommodation for a dead hard drive.
    Same question for my iPhone apps. I'd rather not pay for apps twice, and iTunes won't let me copy them from my iPhone back onto my 'puter. As soon as I sync apps, they'll all disappear, unless there's some way to convince the phone that it's looking at the old, pre-burned-up-hard-drive.
    File>Transfer Purchases sort of worked, but not completely. I have about 600 songs on my iPhone, and it copied about 200 of them to my new hard drive. I have music purchased from iTunes, music copied from purchased CDs, and free downloads (Starbucks, Paste, etc). And there's no trend in what got copied and what didn't. Some of each category was copied, but not all. Very confusing that I can't find a pattern.
    OS X 10.5.8, iPhone 3G with 3.1.3

    Apps issue solved. Or, more accurately, it's a non-issue. iTunes prompts you that you already bought the app and can download it for free. Not so with music, I'm afraid.

  • Upgrading to SL from Tiger on new hard drive

    I have a previous post about installing SL over Tiger but I wanted to ask anyone out there if this is really a wise choice given the imac I have is 3 years old but does have a brand new hard drive installed (my old one fried). I have been reading some reviews and as always they are mixed reviews. It will be a fresh install with nothing on the hard drive other than the tiger OS.
    Also, will I have to install disc 2 of tiger for the application bundle or is any of that on the SL upgrade disc?

    What I did was to use Disk Utility to partition my main drive (be sure to make a backup first), then installed Snow Leopard onto the empty partition (fresh install, no migration). The plain (cheaper) upgrade disk doesn't have the application bundle, but since so many things have changed you should test for compatibility if you are going to install older software.
    This is where the new partition comes in handy - you have the best of both worlds. You can install updated applications and/or test the old ones to see if they still work, and if they don't you can always boot back in to Tiger and use the old stuff from there.

  • How to add files from iPod to new hard drive after krasch?

    My hard drive recently crasched. I use my iPod as back up. But now, I cannot find out how to copy the files back to the new hard drive on the computor. The iTune program only advices me to delite all information on the iPod to substitute it with the much lesser library on the computer. Obviously it must be possible to copy in both directions. But how do I do it?

    Thank you for your advise. That's one thing I learned. Not to assume that people know about backing up. I would have recommended it a long time ago. That's one thing that Apple or other computer stores should offer, external backup package or combo to make people aware of it's importance. Just a thought!
    Anyway, I do have a little background in troubleshooting. I thought it's a Mac security issue. I would want to try other options before deciding in opening the computer and taking out thehard drive as it is not as convenient as opening a PC.
    Apple does make external hard drives available at the Apple Store, however it is an end users responsibility to backup their system. Apple does offer classes to new users and their 1:1 service too, whether the subject of backing up is mentioned in these I do not know. The subject of backing up as a class "subject" may be something you may want to mention to Apple a www.apple.com/feedback.
    Many users go through the same pain as your friend, myself included! However once you go through the pain, it is a lesson seldom forgotten.
    Many experiences users on these forums have redundant methods of backing up. When it comes to backing up redundancy is wise, why because a backup can (and often do) fail too. For example, in addition to using Time Machine, I also have another EHD that I use to create a bootable clone of my computer. That way if both my internal drive and TM back fails the worst that will happen is I have a system I can boot from that is a day or so old and continue running until I get all my systems fixed.

  • How can I transfer outlook data from Ipod to new hard drive?

    My hard drive had to be replaced last week. Although my music was backed up by Norton 360, my Outlook contacts and calendar were not backed up. How can I transfer my data from my Ipod to my new hard drive? I am running Windowa XP, if that matters. Will a sync to Itunes destroy all my data on my Ipod?

    You would need to enter at least one unique contact and calendar entry on the new computer, then when you first sync you should get the option to merge the data.

  • Do I have to deactivate my lightroom 5 installation before moving it to a new hard drive as with Photoshop elements 10?

    I cannot find any way to deactivate my Lightroom 5 install prior to moving it to another hard drive like I did on my Photoshop Elements 10 .

    There is no activation/deactivation process with Lightroom. Just install it on the new hard drive. You might need your serial number.

  • Installing from DVD to New Hard Drive

    I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro, and a new 500 gig hard drive to use in it. The new hard drive is mounted using a hard drive dock. While attempting to install Snow Leopard on the new hard drive from the MacBook Pro's DVDs, I get the following message:
    "Snow Leopard cannot be installed on this computer."
    Is there any way to install a fresh version of Snow Leopard onto this new hard drive from these DVDs?

    First prep your drive as follows:
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Boot from your Snow Leopard 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 Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Upon completion quit DU and return to the installer. Complete the OS X installation.

  • Old iPhone, Old Computer, New Hard Drive

    My wife's hard drive crashed in her PowerBook G4.
    I want to sync her iPhone 3GS to the new hard drive in the old computer, but iTunes warns me that it is going to sync and overwrite all her apps.
    I have succeeded in syncing contacts, calendar, music, etc. It's the apps that I am trying to sync.
    I have established her account in iTunes and authorized the computer.
    I can't seem to find a definitive answer to this online.
    Thanks!

  • Can I pull iCal data from iPod onto new hard drive?

  • Transferring data from iPhone to new hard drive

    If I get a new hard drive on my MacBook, how do I go about transferring my data on my iPhone to the new hard drive without losing the data?

    What data?
    The iphone is not a back up device. Where is your back up? Using your back up is the simplest way.
    If you have at least one unique contact and calendar entry in your computer, you should get the option to merge the data when you first sync.
    You can transfer itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchase
    The other music and pics cannot be synced back to the computer -it is a one way sync -computer to iphone.

  • After a new reinstalla​tion of a new hard drive, some features are lost

    Hi a few months ago the orginial hard drive on my TouchSmart IQ506 crashed n died. I had to re-install a new hard drive and ran recovery disks. To make story short, I noticed that the touch screen feature is no longer there. I remember i could log into my account using the touch screen function. Now it won't work. Does anyone can tell me how to I resolve this minor issue?

    Hi r6champion,
    What is the installed operating system?
    Here is a link to the Software & Driver download section of the web support portal for your TouchSmart PC. Download the OS appropriate HP Support Assistant and install it. Afterwards go to the Maintain section and run a TuneUp. Install the updates that it advises you to.
    Also download and install the original HP Keyboard, ACPI buttons and OSDs  driver.
    Afterwards go into the Device Manager to verify that there are no devices with a yellow exclamation point next to them. The yellow exclamation point is an indicator that a device is recognized by the operating system, but does not have a driver installed.
