New computer - lost TC Install disc in the move. What do I do?
Hey all,
I had a G4 that I was able to successfully backup with the Time Capsule wirelessly. Unfortunately, that computer died after 8 years of hard work.
Anyway, I recently moved and got a refurbished machine (at around the same time). Unfortunately, I can't for the life of me find the disc that came with the TC. So there it sits, blinking orange. I tried plugging it in with the ethernet hoping that it would just pop up like a regular external drive, but no.
Is there a download that I can find somewhere? Is there something else that I could do to get around this issue?
Also, the G5 came without an airport card installed. Am I screwed?
Thanks all,
Tim

No.
There must be some confusion here. You can access Time Capsule with an ethernet connection. Wireless is not required. However, TC is basically and AirPort Extreme Base Station (a wireless router) with a built-in HDD. If you've purchased a TC, but don't need wireless networking, you could have easily picked up a USB/FW HDD. Having said that, I do use the wireless network on my TC, but still have my Mac connected by ethernet since the Mac sits right next to the TC.

I've lost my install discs... What can I do? .
So, on my way home with my computer several stops were made, and during one of them, a bag was dropped unnoticed. Problem is it contained the install discs for the computer (specs at the bottom of my note).
Can someone tell me if it will be possible to purchase new discs from apple? I absolutely need them because when the computer was being set up (transferring data), my cousin "replaced" my font book with the one from my other G4 (800mhz/10.4.11), thinking the fonts would carry over.
Now I can't open the font book at all, which means that I can't install new fonts for my photoshop program. I get an error message saying, *"You cannot use the application "Font Book" with this version of OSX."*
If anyone has any suggestions on where I can buy restore discs for my G4 or how I can fix my font book application, I'd really appreciate it.Okay, but will that reinstall my font book? The person I bought my computer from had leo already installed. I offered to buy the master disc
from him (the disc he used on my computer), but he wouldn't sell. Instead, he just gave me a burned copy "in case I ran into trouble". Luckily,
that was in my purse, but the others discs were in a separate bag and were lost.
I'm not having any issue with anything except my fonts. Someone suggested using Pacifist to remove the font book from the install disc,
but I don't have the ones that came with the computer anymore.
Do you know if the font book can be extracted from the leopard disc?
(Forgive me if my questions seem silly, but I'm not savvy at all.) -
I am having a very hard time. First I finally got all of my music back into iTunes and then moved them all to my external hard drive. I set up iTunes to automatically put and get music from the external hard drive and whenever I open the drive al of the music is there. Now, I bought a new computer and went ahead and got iTunes all set up then tried to add folder to import from the external hard drive but all the music folders are empty! They show the names of the artists and the albums but there is nothing inside. Please help!!
If you've just moved the drive between systems then see Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows just in case that reveals the missing files. Apply to a single album folder first as a test. Otherwise, if you've not done too much with the drive since things went missing, an undelete tool might recover the lost media. FreeRecover looks promising... Select the drive, use the options to get file paths and check file integrity, then, presumably, you can restore anything that has been deleted that looks recoverable. Backup to another drive when you're done.

I am trying to install my creative cloud programs onto my new computer. When I go to the website and log in, it shows that I have a creative cloud membership, but says I have no products. Not sure how I get the program downloaded. Any ideas?
you can install and use on up to two computers at any one time with your single-user license so you need not sign out from your old computer's cc app.
but if you no longer want cc on your old computer, open your desktop cc app and sign out, http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/sign-in-out-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html
to install on your new computer go here and download the cc desktop app using your adobe id, Download Adobe Creative Cloud apps | Free Adobe CC trial -

I downloaded itunes onto my new computer, i connected my iphone during the updating process itunes failed and i lost all my purchased music from my iphone and can no longer retrieve them. I would like to know how i can reinstate the lost music please.
When you are done with this issue, consider the computer back at the office may still
have access to your iTunes account, and it should be de-auhorized. You can do that
remotely, but be sure you carefully do not mess up your other computer iTunes libraries.
Good luck & happy computing! -
I still have my iPod nano 3rd generation, but my old computer crashed and I did not have itunes backed up. Is there a way to get the music from ipod to new computer library and then on to the new ipod ?
Save all the photos from your Droid into a folder on your computer.
Connect your device to your computer. On iTunes left Pane, select iPhone under 'Devices'; then on the right Pane, select PHOTO tab. Make sure Sync Photo box is checked, and "from" box selected the folder that has Droid's photos. Then click the SYNC or APPLY button on the lower right window. -

Lost/misplaced install disc
I have lost my install disc to Tiger!! help? How can I get another one???
See if you can find a Tiger retail package on eBay. If you are referring to the original installer discs that came with your computer then call AppleCare to see if you can purchase replacements.

I have an Ipod Touch 4G. My computer broke. I now have a new computer . I have NO access to old computer. The itunes on my new computer recognises by Ipod but not the music content already on my ipod. This means it does not show the content in the library on itunes any more. The content on my ipod is not purchased from itunes store. Can i get it to show up in the `new` library? Is this also preventing me from downloading new items into my ipod - as i can download new discs into the library, but they will not load into the ipod. Your help would be appreciated - cant bear another sleepless night. Thank you
I dont know how helpful this will be but here we go:
try syncing your ipod again
do you still have these cds? try reburning them to you library
restart itunes
restart the computer
hardware reset ipod touch
Heres how to do this
Hold down power and home button at the same time until the screen goes black, ignore the slide to power off arrow
Idevice will now restart on its own, this might take longer then when waking it from shut down
6. now try step 1 again
note: try any of these ideas they are not a set order of instructions -
I have a sync key, and have a new computer terminal, but when I enter the account details I created, it syncs nothing with my new computer. How do I fix this? There is nothing showing up when I sync with the sync key from my old terminal.

<blockquote>
I recently had to do a wipe on my laptop. I saved the sync key but there was no mention of a sync account prior to doing the wipe. I saved the key and when I did the wipe it asked me to make an account, which I had not done, but now I am seeing no where to put in a sync key code. did they make them unusable now or something?
</blockquote>
You are probably trying to use old Sync with Firefox newer than version 29,
and they did make old Sync unusable on fresh installations of newer Firefox.
You can uninstall that newer Firefox, then install Firefox 29 from here:
https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/29.0.1/
Apply your sync key code, then update that installation to current Firefox,
then migrate to new Sync:
