Please Help - I've had software stolen

Hi,
I know this probably isn't in the right forum and i it doesn't worry me if it's gets moved to an appropriate forum, but I didn't know where to put this post.
I've had my iLife '06 software stolen.
I've gone through some approprate channels already, Police for example, they don't care about it enough to help me.
I need to know if there's any way I can get it replaced, I'd prefer not to have to buy it again; I'm just wondering whether Apple will honour any claims of theft.
I still have all the paperwork from when I purchased the software. Can that help?
Can anything be done?
All help and comments are welcome.
regards,
Peter.
iBook G4; 60GB Hard Drive, 512MB RAM, Airport Extreme + iPod Nano (1GB Black)   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   iWork & iLife '06, Adobe CS2, Final Cut Pro. Anything and Everything!!!

I don't know if Apple will replace it or if your insurance company will reimburse you for it; however, you could call 1-800-MY-APPLE and see what they say.

    Apple does not track nor block iPads. If it was equipped to access
    cellular, report it to your cellular provider. Report the loss to your
    local police. If covered by your insurance, report to your insurance
    company.
    Immediately change all of your passwords.
    If you had previously set it up, you may be able to track it via

    You don't need any software to run the router at all.  Connect with your wired computer to 192.168.1.1 username blank, password admin and configure your router manually like everyone else.

  • Please help!  My iphone was stolen so did restore on new phone and LOST!

    Hello fellow iphone users! Please help me. I was on vacation, my iphone was stolen. So decided to buy a new iphone wile on vacation. Couldn't sync/restore my info till i got back home to my computer. So while I was still on vacation I continued to use the new phone and take pictures and videos. So when I got home and restored from a previous back up, it erased ALL MY newest/latest video and pics that I had just taken. Does anyone know if there is a way for me to get those new pics/videos back? They were of great value to me and would be an awful way to end my vacation after my phone got stolen. Thank you all in advance for any guidance you can provide.

    When there are photos/videos in your iPhone's Camera Roll, your iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
    When you chose to transfer the backup for your iPhone that was stolen to your new iPhone, all data on your new iPhone that is included with the backup (which includes photos/videos in the Camera Roll) was replaced by the backup for your iPhone that was stolen. It doesn't merge this data on a new iPhone, it replaces it. Transferring the backup of an existing or former iPhone to a new iPhone is designed to be done as the first step after getting a new iPhone. If not and the iPhone is used for a period of time before doing so, photos/videos in the Camera Roll should be imported by your computer as the first step as with any other digital camera before transferring a backup for a previous iPhone to the new iPhone.
    The photos/videos that were in the Camera Roll on your new iPhone are now gone.

    Hi Gammer576775!
    Here is an article that will help you troubleshoot this issue with your iPod touch:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2771
    Will not power on, or will not turn on unless connected to power
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Connect the iPod touch to an Apple USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 15 minutes, if the display turns on and…
    The home screen appears, the device should be working. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen: . Then disconnect the device from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears even after the iPod touch has charged for at least 20 minutes: See the "iPod touch displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or low-battery image appears , continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPod touch did not turn on, reset it while connected to an Apple USB power adapter. If the display turns on, go to step 4.If the display remains black, go to the next step.
    Restore the device. Connect it to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes it and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPod touch. If the device doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring it, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPod touch resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring it did not solve the issue, seek service.

    Uninstall them, then install the fresh copy of the 4.7 device drivers
    I have not yet did the clean uninstall (that yall suggested in that post) since last night. after i did all that last night,i installed the driver and berry would not show up on windows explorer,so then i tried to install desktop again and it left that message on my original post up top,so I restored my commuter and desktop was there again and working (I only really use app loader)    then I uninstaled it again.(not the clean way this time) and started installing and unistalling the drivers ,which lead to no prevail.            I would like to be able to use the app loader,and I would REALLY like for my phone to show up on my PC again so i can juggle my media around from SD card to device and all that stuff.

    At the end of this install try connecting the Blackberry to the PC without Desktop manager running.
    See if the device comes up correctly. If not run Windows update with the Blackberry plugged in. The 
    device should be recognized and the device drivers added.

  • Please help me I had installed windows using bootcamp assistant and forget to get back to Mac OS while starting by using that specific keys

    Help me

    It's normal for the Mac to set the Windows partition as the default startup disk when installing Windows since it will restart a couple of times during the install.
    One way to get back to OS X is to restart and hold down the Option key. You'll get a display of the various drives you can boot to. Double click on the OS X drive.
    An Option key boot is a temporary choice, and your Mac will continue to boot to Windows by default. To change that, once you're back in OS X, open the System Preferences and click on the Startup Disk icon. Click on the OS X drive to make it the default choice.

    I have attempted to submit my podcast feed to the iTunes Directory and received the above error message.  The feed is http://www.codecmoments.com/reviews/cost-of-a-coffee/feed/ and I am using PowerPress taxonomy casting.  There is currently one episode with attached media, but there are other posts using the same custom taxonomy without media.
    When I attempted to subscribe using File>Subscribe to Podcast.. in iTunes using the above feed, it worked as expected and the one episode appeared,
    Can anybody help to explain if there is something wrong with my feed and if so what can be done to correct it?  Also can you explain why the podcast appears using File>Subscibe to Podcast... but not when submitting to iTunes Directory?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    You are mixing episodes with and without playable media; iTunes does not display the latter. Your top episode has no media, though the second one does. From what I can tell it appears that the Store checks only the top episode of a submission, and not any subsequent ones. You need to arrange for the top episode to have media. As your feed has been rejected you may find when you re-submit that you are told that it has already been submitted - this is a bug in the submissions process, and if this happens you will need to change the title slightly to get round it.
