My laptop running XP sp3 and FireFox 3.6 died. I salvaged the HD and put it in a drive enclosure. I bought a new Win7 machine and wish to import my old favorites (I don't have a backup, but the Favorites folder on the old HD is intact).

My laptop running XP sp3 and FireFox 3.6 died. I salvaged the HD and put it in a drive enclosure. I bought a new Win7 machine and wish to import my old favorites (I don't have a backup, but the Favorites folder on the old HD is intact). I have not been able to determine how to import these favorites from the old HD to the new machine. I haven't found any FAQ that addresses this since I can't really start Firefox on the old HD in order to make a HTML backup. Any ideas? edit

My computer is saying it can't find the file 'iTunes64.msi' when I try to update or redownload iTunes how do I fix this? I've tried just about everything I can think of. I am using a dell laptop running windows 7 and have tried changing the file location to run the update in all of my iTunes files as well as when I've tried reinstalling it.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Hi, I have a mac book pro running mavericks and recently tried to connect to a 3rd ten apple tv but the airplay icon is not showing up in the top bar. I then tried my girlfriends laptop running mountain lion and it showed up straight away. Any suggestions

Hi, I have a mac book pro running mavericks and recently tried to connect to a 3rd gen apple tv but the airplay icon is not showing up in the top bar. I then tried my girlfriends laptop running mountain lion and it showed up straight away. Any suggestions?

How old is the MacBook Pro? AirPlay is only supported on 2011 and newer models, due to the requirements it has in hardware for graphics acceleration.

HT4972 I am having trouble downloading iOS 5 connected to my laptop. Says I don't have network connection but I do.

I am having trouble downloading iOS 5 connected to my laptop. Says I don't have network connection but I do. Please help. I purchased tv programs and it is telling me I need ios5 to watch and I downloaded it to cloud but have to have this app also. On my iPad I don't have an updates button under settings like I have seen other iPads have.

You only have the option if you are already running iOS 5 already. If you are trying to update to iOS 5, you have to use iTunes on a computer to update the iPad.
Here are the instructions.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
Or you can connect the iPad to the computer, launch iTunes. Select the iPad under the devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update

If you are having problems with the download, try disabling your firewall and anti virus software until after the download completes.

After syncing my iphone to my itunes on my pc, all the music on my phone is gone. I don't have a backup. Is there any way I can get them back?

If you had no other backup....NOPE! However, if you purchased your songs from iTunes, check out: iTunes Store - Finding Lost Music FAQ

HT1212 I got "ipad is disabled, connect to itunes". I have never synced my ipad with itune and don't have a backup. how can I bypass this message without restoring the device. I have many articles on my ipad that I can not afford to loose.

I have upgraded my ipad2 to the latest ios. shortly after this message came up: "ipad is disabled, connect to itunes". I have never synced my ipad2 to itunes and don't have any backup. Is there any way to bypass this without restoring the device? I have many articles on "iAnnotate" that can not afford to loose.

You can't bypass it, you will need to connect iPad to a computer's iTunes, and you may need to put it into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad, which will remove all content from it.
You haven't been backing up to the cloud either, and/or keeping copies of important documents/files elsewhere e.g. on your email account, Dropbox etc ?

Has anyone else had problems since downloading latest update? My iTunes stopped working and mobile device won't download, I now don't have Apple to backup my iphone?

As i've posted in this thread:

I've tried everything others have suggested without any luck.
Now I'm stuck with a 300 bucks mp3 jalopy.
My big question here is :
why aren't we hearing from apple? why aren't they saying something like "yeah we messed things up but be patient. we are trying our best to fix it..." ?
I was thinking to buy the macbook pro but now I'm afraid of the day things will get messy with that too.

I want to restore my iPod 3 generation via iTunes, but I don't have any backup. Will I lose data from iPod or I can restore data after?

My iPod 32 GB 3 generation is dammaged. I want to restore it using iTunes, but I don't have any backup. So will I be cpable to restore all data after restore or I will lose it forever?

If you can't make a backup
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
Then you can't restore restore from backup
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
What is current status of the iPod?

I don't have a "backup to disc" option when I click file and then library - I have version 10.5.

I don't have a "backup to disc" option when I click File and then Library - I have the version 1.5 on Windows Vista. I had it until I updated. I need to back up to DVD.

Can I exclude photos on my iPhone from being sent to iCloud and how? My goal is to only sync my calendar to the iCloud and exclude everything else. This way I don't have to pay for more space.

My goal is to only sync my calendar to iCloud and exclude everything else. This way I don't have to pay for more space.

Hey Murphie,
I don't pay for more space and I'm backing up two devices to iCloud, a 32G ipad and a 16G phone.
However, you can merely chose NOT to backup to iCloud. Then you won't run out of space. Items synced to iCloud do not take up your backup space.
Now, you WILL have to back up to your computer via iTunes the old fashioned way, or risk losing valuable data. Your choice.
However, if you manage your data responsibility, you won't run out of your 5G of storage on your iCloud backup from normal use.
Good luck

I don't have Mobile me, but my notes on my ipad and my iphone no longer sync over the air. Any answers?

I don't have Mobile Me, but my ipad and iphone notes used to sync over the air and they no longer do.
Does anyone have any answers?

In iCal's preferences, you can configure whether and when events get purged.
As for recovering old, deleted events... I don't suppose you have backups?...

HT1766 I usually have iCloud backup but I got a notification that my phone has not backed up for the last two weeks, and It wont let me do it manually. Why did it all of a sudden stop backing up?

I usually have iCloud backup but I got a notification that my phone has not backed up for the last two weeks, and It wont let me do it manually.There is also still enough storage space. Why did it all of a sudden stop backing up?

The HT1766 article you attached lists the prerequisites for an iCloud backup:
iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your device using iOS 5 or later. After you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in Settings > iCloud > Backup & Storage, it will run on a daily basis as long as your device is:
Connected to the Internet over Wi-Fi
Connected to a power source
Screen locked
You can also back up manually whenever your device is connected to the Internet over Wi-Fi by choosing Back Up Now from Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
