New operating system and now itunes library is blank. How can I get it back?
My computer got messed up and I ended up having to get a new operating system put on it. Now my itunes library is blank and my ipod says it can't synch (obviously) because it doesn't recognize the library. How do I get my old library back?
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
Use your backup copy to put everything back

If you are a resident of the U.S. you can re download iTunes purchases for free.

The message icon is not showing in the drop screen of my photos where it says do you want to email, message, assign, use as waller paper etc. it used to show before and now it's not there how can I get it back?
Did this back along to mine. Plug it into itunes on your pc (or Mac) and click on the ipod icon on the left hand side. When the device options come up on the main screen, click on restore. Follow the steps and it should restore to factory settings. If you had icloud activated on the ipod all previous purchases should be in the cloud and ready to download onto the ipod afte rit has been restored to factory settings, otherwise you'll have to download them all again. Hope it helped.

I just updated photos on Yosemite and now iPhoto is gone. How can I get it back?
I just updated photos on Yosemite and now iPhoto is gone. How can I get it back?
What were you running before you updated? 10.10.2, or an earlier version of OS X (10.9 or earlier)?
If 10.10.2, then iPhoto should still be on your machine. If not, then go to the App Store, purchased tab, and look for iPhoto, and download it (you'll need iPhoto 9.6.1 to run on Yosemite).
If you never installed iPhoto from the Mac App Store, then you should contact AppleCare, who can probably help you out. That's the only option in this case; upgrading from 10.9 or earlier straight to 10.10.3 is a bad incidence of timing. -
my songs wouldnt play on my ipod so i deleted the songs on the ipod and went to the purchased section in itunes to recover like i did with another song and my purchase history i blank, how can i get them back?
Maybe you have multiple accounts that's why your purchase history is empty. You can try checking for possible Apple IDs that's existing for you or you can ask for assistance from support.

I had iphoto downloaded on my computer and now it's gone? how can I get it back?
I used to have Iphoto on my mac and now it's gone? How do I get it back or do I have to purchase it ? thank you....
Where have you looked for iPhoto? Is it gone from your Dock or the applications folder?
Have you searched with Spotlight? Enter iPhoto into the searchfield in the upper right corner of your screen and then look, if it will be listed in the "Applications" section of the list.
What happenend, before iPhoto vanished? Did you upgrade any software? -
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.

I downloaded the new operating system and now the Bluetooth in the car does not play my music. The music on the phone show the cloud and the red arrow pointing downwards. How do I download all the music again to my phone please?
I have an ITunes account. I got it when I got my IPOD. I've thought about upgrading, but I didn't see any reason to buy a newer IPOD because they all come with so much stuff I don't want/need. I don't have my current IPOD filled yet and I really don't need an IPOD Touch that has capabilities that my Droid already has. I don't need to be concerned with documents, mail, attaching to Facebook or playing games. I can do all that on my phone. I just want to maintain my music between 3 devices.
So now that I see it is not to my benefit to have this product---can you point me in the direction to cancel this? And how do I get my music back? Will it show up once I cancel my account? -

Okay I use iPhoto 6 on an older mac and don't want to upgrade past 10.4.11. Can I upgrade iPhoto without the newer operating system? For the life of me I can't get iPhoto to recognize my camera reliably - although it does sometimes. Any advice, help?
The latest version of iPhoto which can operation with OS X 10.4.11 is iPhoto 7 which is part of iLife 08. You might be able to find a copy of iLIfe 08 on Amazon.com or Ebay.com.
iLife 08's full system requirements are:
Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 processor
iMovie ’08 requires a Mac computer with an Intel processor, a Power Mac G5 (dual 2.0 GHz or faster), or an iMac G5 (1.9 GHz or faster)
iDVD ’08 requires 733MHz or faster processor
512 MB of RAM; 1 GB recommended; high-definition video requires at least 1 GB of RAM
3 GB of available disk space
DVD drive required for installation
