  • Computer Crashed. iTunes Library Lost. How can I get it back from my iPhone

    I have 522 Purchased songs on my iPhone. My computer recently crashed and we got a new hard drive, so all settings were refreshed on my computer. I plugged in my iPhone to transfer my Purchases back to my iTunes library. Again, 522 Purchased songs, and only 303 of them copied. I tried transferring them again, however it didn't transfer anything. Is there anyway I can get the songs back from my iPhone?
    Note: My iPhone is on automatic update, and if I try switching it to manual I'm prompted that in order for the change to occur I must Erase and Sync my iPhone which would completely defeat the purpose of my trying to get my music back on my computer so I can put new songs on my iPhone as well.

    Purchased songs should be able to be copied back, but if not, maybe you need use other tools. This is a frequently asked question, you can have a look of below answer.

  • The right-click "move to group" menu item has disappeared, how can I get it back?

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>

    This menu option has been there since I started using the beta. It disappeared during one of the beta revisions, but was back for RC1. In fact, I just used it the other day, but now it is not there. What is my problem?

    OK,
    I solved my own problem. For some reason, if I enable the menu bar, the option comes back, and when I disable it it seems to stay ..... for now. Bug maybe?
    Note,
    I even installed the Menu Editor 1.2.7 Addon (which showed the "Move to Group" option enabled, and that still did not solve the problem.

  • The "recently used programs" section on the start menu has disappeared - how do I get it back?

    On the start menu, the top few programs are those that I use frequently.

  • My iPhone playlist has dissapeared, how can I get it back?

    My iPhone playlist has dissapeared, how can I get it back?

    I'm very new to this sort of thing, so bear with me.  I had my computer in to the Apple store on Jan 10th, & they replaced Leopard with Snow leopard because of problems.  I have iphoto 8.
    This morning opening my computer a picture briefly appreared that I had saved to iphoto. I decided to place it in its correct event box, and  ! sign appeared.  Upon opening iphoto, I found a blank.  I've not backed up my files.  I've looked everywhere on the system, including Trash, applications, Pictures, all my document files.  
    Also I had 2 icons  of iphoto on my desktop because it had disappeared 2 years ago & came back some months later.  Two days ago I decided to clean up my desktop & moved the icons to the pIcture  file and a document file.  I don't know whether this triggered the disappearance. The main icon is still in the dock.
    Does this help?
