HT201250 How do I restore photos from Time Machine? All of my photos have been imported within iPhoto and therefore are exported to Time Machine via an iPhoto file. I can't figure out how to break individual photo files out of the iPhoto file. Any idea

How do I restore photos from Time Machine? All of my photos have been imported within iPhoto and therefore are exported to Time Machine via an iPhoto file. I can't figure out how to break individual photo files out of the iPhoto file. Any ideas?

You might post this query on the iPhoto forum and perhaps someone there can provide an answer.
I tried this on my MBP and it seems that you have to restore the entire iPhoto Library. What I did was put the current library in a separate folder on the desktop and then I restored the library from a prior date. If you were to do that, you then could extract the desired photos and then delete the restored library. Then place the current library back to the original location and import the desired photos.
Not tidy but it seems it will work.
Ciao.

Want to restore computer using Time Machine, but am locked out of my accoun

Due to an apparently common problem with Snow Leopard, I restarted to find all users unavailable for login. The info is all still there, but I can not log in--have tried all solutions listed here. THing is:
Everything is backed up using Backup and Time Machine. Is there any way to bring my computer back with Time Machine WITHOUT logging in as my old user? Or do I have everything I need but am locked out of using it? Many thanks!

Yes. See #14 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
Also: can not seem to start up using my install CD (Leopard)
To restore a Snow Leopard backup, you must use a Snow Leopard Install disc.
and my partitioned drive is also Leopard, not Snow Leopard. Mysterious.
If in doubt, re-format it in step (c) of #14.

I updated firefox to version 11 and lost all my bookmark folders and bookmarks, how do I restore them using timemachine?

I am using Mac OS X Lion. I use Firefox for my research and have numerous bookmarks organized in folders. All the bookmarks disappeared after I upgraded to version 11. I have tried looking for my profile as suggested in the forums and help documents but I cannot find it. I have Time Machine Backups of my entire system. Could someone please tell me which folders and/or files to restore to get my bookmarks back?

Which files (settings) do you want to restore?
Did you find the Firefox Profile Folder in the Time Machine?
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder and see the currently used location:

Itunes wiped out all data now ipod is corrupt

I bought my 80g ipod classic in March,08 and have never had problems until two months ago. Several times after disconnecting, I found that itunes wiped out all the songs and video. The first time, I lost over 8000 songs and never realized it until I was in the car on a long road trip. My playlists were gone, 14 movies and many video clips. My pictures and games remained however. Problems continued periodically. Sometimes it would eject immediately after connecting. Then it would connect, but not sync anything. Now itunes will recognize it, but says it needs to be formatted then restored. I didn't want to lose everything, but now it has wiped out games and pics also. It is like I just bought it. I have updated itunes to 8.0 and tried to update my ipod as well. Now it is telling me that it can't be restored and that my ipod is corrupt. This is my second ipod, the first was a 20g with pics and I used and abused it to death and NEVER had a single problem until it just quit working. I have my computer set to update automatically for itunes and this all started right after it completed an update of some kind. I have a 2 year warranty, should I relace it? Also, will I lose all the games I bought?

I just upgraded my itunes and now my IPOD won't play any of my songs. Everything is still ther, will let me navigate etc, but just won't play!
Very dissapointed!
Worst, i can't get my music off my IPOD now, because ITUNES doesn't allow it. And worst still, when i take it in to get a replacement, they simpy take my IPOD and away and give me a new one.
I'm seriously put off!

HT204266 I've just updated iOS and restored all my apps. But the games I bought have disappeared off my phone. How do I restore them

I just updated to iOS 5 and restored all my apps but the games I bought have disappeared off my iPhone and don't apear in iTunes on my computer. How do I restore them?

Download them again from the App Store. As long as you're signed in from the same account, you won't be charged again.
Best of luck.

I am unable to install the newest update for itunes and quicktime because of a bonjour error about path not being located

I have windows 7 and I have been trying to install the newest update for itunes and quicktime but I keep receiving the same Bonjour error. I even tried to do it manually and no luck. I also tried to unistall bonjour but it would not even allow me to unistall it either. No matter what I do I get the same error listed below:
The path C:\users\owner\appdata\local\apple\apple software update\bonjour64.msi cannot be found. verify that you have access to this location and try again or try to find the installation package "bonjour64.msi" in a folder from which you can install the product bonjour.
I would greatly appreciate any help because this appears whether i am trying to install the updates or remove bonjour to reinstall. I am stuck.
Thank You in advance!!!

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on 25 June 2010. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Just yesterday I downloaded the newest update for iTunes, a few days before doing this I purchased music, but after doing the update my songs will not play. It shows a message that says this file cannot be located, what can I do to find the location?

I was able to drag and drop songs from iTunes in to Garage Band so I could slow them down to learn how to play them. Since the newest version of iTunes came out I no longer can. Is this a feature that I can turn back on?

I was able to drag and drop songs from iTunes in to Garage Band so I could slow them down to learn how to play them. Since the newest version of iTunes came out I no longer can. Is this a feature that I can turn back on? I really would like to continue to utlize that feature because it makes learning to play songs easier. Any help would be appericated.

To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.

HT1766 My iphone isn't beging recognized when I installed the newest update for itunes ***

The newest update from Itunes is not recognizing my Iphone and I have gone thru the troubleshooting procedures. Nothing is working. Apple should get their **** together.

Quit iTunes.
Disconnect your iPhone from your PC.
Go to Control Panel.
List installed software and remove the driver software for the iPhone. It's named something like "Driver or Device, Apple iPhone".
Restart Windows 7.
Connect your iPhone, make sure it the screen is not locked.
Windows should automatically re-install the driver software for the iPhone now.
If it has done that, start iTunes.
iTunes should now detect your iPhone again.
Kind regards,

How can I get my "contacts" back on my iPod classic. ITunes wiped out all my contacts and there is even no place for contacts any more on my macBook.

How can I get my "contacts" back on my iPod classic. iTunes wiped out all my contacts from my iPod classic and now I no longer even show a place for contacts on my computer when I plug in my iPod.

You don't download iTunes by connecting your phone to iTunes and yes of course, by syncing your phone with your husbands computer, of course you will have lost all your stuff and you will have his.
When you connect to iTunes, you sync.
To get back all your things, then you need to sync your phone to the computer that you used originally to set your phone up - if this is your computer, then connect your phone to that and sync it with iTunes on that and you will get your stuff back, but when you connect to iTunes you sync and don't download.
Ringtones should download automatically to your phone and if not, if you are getting them on your computer, then download them to your computer with your iTunes on and double click to get the MP3 file to open in iTunes and then sync your phone to your computer and you will get the ringtone on your phone.

Restore it from the iTunes backup or re-sync it with iTunes.

Since I downloaded the newest update, my phone only rings or makes text sounds about 10% of the time. It can be sitting in front of me and a call or text comes in. No sound, just a msg on the screen. Anyone out there having that problem?

Anyone out there having that problem? It's not a problem in the settings as I set the rings and tones I want. The rare one comes thru with sound. I never had any problems before update.

No, sounds like when you dropped it an cracked the screen it may have also damaged the logic board or the repair person damaged a cable.
