New to iTunes: how do I transfer and manage content on new hard drive?

I recently had to get a new hard drive on my computer. I reloaded iTune to the new computer and would like to transfer and manage my pics, apps, music, videos etc but not all the materials transfered. I clicked transfer purchases but none of my albums transfered. I also cannot manually manage my music, apps, or videos with out syncing my itunes and deleting the current content of my phone which I don't want to do. Help!

Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything back.

Copy the entire iTunes folder from \Users\<User>\Music on the old drive into your music folder on the new computer.
Or see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

How do I transfer an imovie from an external hard drive to my macbook pro iMovie 9

How do I transfer an iMovie from an external hard drive to my macbook pro iMovie 11?

The easiest way would be to just attach the external drive to the MacBook Pro. iMovie should see it next time you open iMovie.
If you are going for portability, you can attach the external drive to the MacBook Pro. Then open iMovie.
Then click VIEW/EVENTS BY DISK. You should see your external drive listed in the Project Library and the Event Library.
To make a COPY just drag the icon for your project to the icon for the external drive in the Project Library List.
To MOVE it, hold down the command key while you drag.
If you want to edit the project, you will also want any Events, Photos, or Music referenced in the Project. To get those, click on the Project to select it (it is now on the MacBook Pro) and click FILE/CONSOLIDATE MEDIA.

How do I transfer time capsul data to external hard drive to free up space?

How do I transfer time capsule data to external hard drive to free up space?

The fastest method is straight copy and paste..
Plug a suitable hard disk into your computer.. format it Mac OS extended journaled (if not already).
Select the folders/files you want to move.. copy and paste them to the external drive..
Double check that the files are copied because the next step will delete the files forever.. there is no trash on the TC.
Delete the files on the TC.
You can also do a full archive of the TC disk to a USB plugged into it by USB.. it must be formatted Mac OS Extended Journaled. It must be big enough to hold all data on the TC disk.. best idea is to buy the same size or bigger.. so if you use 2TB TC buy a 2TB or bigger external drive.
In airport utility select archive.
That will copy everything on the TC disk to the USB drive.. you could then Erase the disk of the TC.. this is super fast if you choose quick erase.. just a few minutes. But the archive will take many hours.. say for 2TB about 12-24hours.. and you cannot use the disk in the TC during that time.

How do I transfer Adobe CC application from one hard drive to another?

Need help with how to reset bios and admin password to reformat hard drive in 8440p elitebook.......

need help with how to reset bios and admin password to reformat hard drive in 8440p elitebook? removal of cmos, resetting laptop, using cccleaner, windows password recovery and hiren's was noneffective, any help is appreciated. thanks

Hi,
As your notebook is a business class machine, security is more stringent - the password is stored in non-volatile memory and there are no 'backdoor' passwords. Your best option would be to contact HP regarding this.

My M-Air start up disk if full; I have the a new time capsule, how do I transfer and use the TC as my main storage drive?

The start-up disk on my MAC AIR is full - I just added a new Time Capsule - how do you transfer your files from the AIR to the TC and set it up to be used as my primary storage disk - not my Mac Air

Get a second external drive, drag both the iTunes library and the pictures to it, launch iTunes with the Option key held down, and point it to that instance of the library. This also works with iPhoto, but see below.
A drive or partition needs to be formatted as Mac OS Extended in order to hold an iPhoto library or for Time Machine to back it up.

How do I transfer applications & data from my old hard-drive to my new one?

My old hard drive started to crash, it was on it's way out and making funny noises. I have brought a new hard drive and connected it to the same leeds as the old one. I have put the opperating system on to the new hard drive and it is all up and running..... but.
I want to transfer all my old applications like garage sale and limewire without having to pay for them again and transfer all my music and photos from the old hard drive to the new.
So:
1: How do i get the old hard drive out of the position it's in it seems glued in and i can't see any screws?
2: How do i connect both hard drives and transfer everything from the old to the new? Do i need to buy another set of leeds or should they be in the computer
Your help would be most appreciated.....

Hi
You should be able to have both drives installed at the same time in the rear U shaped bracket. One needs to be mounted in the bottom of the bracket, have it's jumpers set to master and be connected to the end connector of the ribbon cable. The other needs to mounted above it, have it's jumpers set to slave and be connected to the middle connector of the ribbon cable. The computer should have the leads to do this, i.e. one ribbon cable with two connectors and two molex power connectors. With both drives installed, you can then drag your music and photos etc from the old to the new. You could try dragging the applications, although if they install additional files elsewhere they'll need to be reinstalled from the original CDs or DVDs.
The old drive may be screwed into the U shaped bracket from below. There should be a single screw which secures the bracket to the chassis at the front, although it may be hidden under the ribbon cable. If you unplug the ribbon cable and undo the single screw you can remove the bracket still containing the old drive, by sliding it forwards and lifting it up at the front. The screws securing the drive to the bracket can then be undone from beneath.

How can I transfer my data from my internal hard drive to my internal ssd on my macbook pro?

A few days ago, I replaced my optical drive with an internal ssd. Now I want to transfer my operating programs from my hard drive to my new ssd. How do I have to do that?

I can only tell you that my system has the SSD in the optical slot. I know others don't recommend that, but it's worked fine for me. As for copying everything over, why not just use Carbon Copy Cloner? I don't see why you need Time Machine backups. I'm assuming your SSD is the same size or larger than your HD, or at least large enough to accomodate all your data. Then if you decide to swap the drives around in the bays, you can do that as well.

How to save, combine and retrieve the images on hard drive using IMAQ in labview

Hi,
I am using NI-1426 frame grabber to capture images of 800x1 resolution with 270 bands. Actually, I want to capture images from camera and saving into the hard drive continuously so that my buffer does not run out of memory. After capturing say 100 images of same resolution (800x1), I want to combine all images into ENVI format and then again save on hard-drive. Please guide me how can I do that?
Thanks
Sidd

Hi Jeff,
Let me explain it in little detail.
I am using PCI NI-1426 frame grabber to capture the images at particular frame rate. Ni-1426 has 2 ports i.e. 26 pin camera and 15 pin triggering port. I am sending the pulse per second (pps) signal from gps to the triggering port. I want to check for the pps signal through the frame grabber 15 pin port. Please tell me how can I listen to a trigger through a frame grabber in labview? As I have connected pps signal on pin1 in 15 pin port, I want to read that pin. or how can I read a particular pin data in labview? I have already checked that I am getting pps signal through oscilloscope.
Thanks
Regards,
Sidd
