  • Computer crashed how do i get my music from ipod onto new computer

    basically my old laptop crashed and there's no way i can back up my music from that computer
    is there a way i can take the music thats already on my ipod and put it on another computer

    You'll need to copy the music currently on your iPod to your new PC and into iTunes first before you can sync it to the new iPod.

  • Computer Crash - how to deactivate so I can install on a new computer

    My computer just crashed and therefore I will be buying a new computer soon. I had the adobe suite on my old computer along with lightroom and was wondering how to go about deactivating them on that computer so I can reinstall them on my new computer? Also when I go to  install it on my new computer can I do this by just having my serial numbers?

    You are allowed to have two machines with activated installations, and you can deactivate/reacivate as needed for new machines or whatnot.  So you do not necesssarily need to deactivate the inaccessible installation, though it is nice to have the extra activation available.
    You need to contact Adobe Support thru chat to get the deactivation performed.  For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

  • Windows XP Computer Crashed - How to move songs to another PC

    Hello, I have a 30gb Ipod Video. I operate in a Windows XP Pro environment.
    My home computer's hard drive crashed. I would like to move my songs to a work PC temporarily until I can replace my hard drive. I installed Itunes, but it has never been set up for my IPOD.
    How can I save my songs, pictures and videos?
    Thanks.

    First of all try this method which works on some Windows PCs..
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    There is also CopyPod. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free.
    If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.

  • IPhone says it's looking for my old dead computer when trying to sync to new computer. How do I get my phone to recognize my new computer?

    My old computer died, long live the computer! Thought I'd be slick and sync my iphone with all 2000+ songs to my new computer. Loaded up iTunes, no problem, downloaded all the songs I've purchased, but when it came to syncing, it said the phone was looking for my old computer. How do I get the phone to recognize the new computer?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

    old machine crashed. how to deregister adobe acrobat on old machine?

    You can't if you don't have physical access to it. Just install it on the new machine and if you have problems with activation call the number for your country and explain the situation to them. They should be able to help you out with it.

    You do not.. the iPhone is not a backup device.
    Copy the entire iTunes directory from the old computer or the backup of the old computer to the new computer.

    Install it just as you did before. You should have backed up the download to a CD or backup HD and have the S/N archived with the backup. If you did not backup (please do in the future), you can download from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html unless it was an upgrade (I don't think you can use these files for upgrades).

    Try the Store column from iTunes' menu.  There should be a "sign in" or some similar entry there.

  • I'm moving an internal hard drive from an old computer to a new computer.  How do I transfer the catalog data to my new computer so the Organizer of Photoshop Elements 6 will find the data on the hard that has been moved to the new computer?

    I'm moving an internal hard drive from an old computer to a new computer.  (My new compute runs Windows 8.1) How do I transfer the catalog data to my new computer so the Organizer of Photoshop Elements 6 will find the data on the hard that has been moved to the new computer?  Is this possible or do I have to use the procedure of copying the catalog along with the photos to a back up hard drive and then restore them on the new computer?

    The 'normal' procedure is to do a PSE organizer backup (not a copy or a backup from external tools) to an external drive, then a restore to the new location.
    The advantage is that you have a backup of both catalog and media files and you don't have all disconnected files, which would happen with external backup tools. Also, if you restore with a more recent elements version, the catalog will be automatically updated to the new format.
    The drawback in your situation is that you'll have either to overwrite all your files or restore to a custom location, creating a duplicate photo library (which supposes you have enough free space).
    It would be possible to simply use the organizer in the old PC to move the catalog to a new 'custom' folder just under your C: root drive. The catalog would be accessible once the drive will be installed in the new PC. Then you would have all files 'disconnected' due to the fact that all your media files are now on a drive with a different letter. Reconnecting a whole library is a hard job with PSE6, less so with PSE11/PSE12.
    If the idea of fiddling with the sqlite database with external sqlite manager tools is ok for you, I can describe the process more in detail. You only copy your catalog folder (as suggested above) to another location. Instead of trying the 'reconnection' way, you install the sqlite utility on the new computer. When the old drive is installed in the new computer, you simply edit a given record in the catalog database, catalog.psedb, and start the organizer with your copied catalog by simply double clicking the 'catalog.psedb' file.
    Even if the last solution is much, much quicker, I would still create a new PSE backup : you have never too much safety .

  • How do I add music to my ipod from new computer and not loose old stuff from old computer?

    Have a new computer and would like to add more music to my ipod. It won't let me keep my old music and add new music. How do I go about doing this?

    Thanks for the info...sounds like it might work. So just to clarify because I am NOT a computer whiz...by changing the setting it will keep my old downloads on my ipod and now I can download new music with my new computer and add them to my ipod. My old stuff will not be lost. When I was on my new computer there was a button that said, "On this ipod"...I could see all of my old music, but wasn't able to make new playlists or manage them in any way. Will I be able to manage them? Or will they be "frozen" so to speak?
    Also, where do I look for this setting?
    Thanks so much for your time!
