Problems With Transferring To A New Computer...PLEASE READ

I recently had problems with my Powerbook G4 and called Apple about it. Long story short, I had to erase and install Mac OSX thus erasing everything from my hard drive. I have around 2,000 songs and 1,300 pictures on my iPod that I need on my computer. Is there any way of doing this?

Sorry I can't help with photos however there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve song files from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. I use Senuti but check the others out particularly if you need to move videos for which you' d need iPod Copy.

Major problems with transferring songs to new iPod touch 5th gen

Hi, I'm in need of help.
I just bought a new iPod touch 5th generation today and I naturally wanted to transfer some songs to it today via iTunes. I have an old MacBook aluminium with os x 10.5.8 and I have not been able to update any of my programs lately due to the fact that my os does not support them. When I plugged in my iPod to my computer, iTunes immediately opened and said that I had to upgrade to the latest version of iTunes because my iPod is not compatible with the current version. I tried doing so but failed since my os is not compatible with the new program. This is obviously just a vicious circle, since as I said, I have to buy the latest os x to update any of my programs. And since my computer is 5 years old I do not feel the need to do that, because I will soon buy a new one (in about a year).
So now I really need help. How do I transfer music to my iPod without using iTunes? I've tried googling it and I've downloaded a bunch of programs but they are just 30 day trials and that won't work for me since I update my iPod daily. I've also tried putting music on dropbox but my iPod won't download music files from there, and sending music through Bluetooth won't work either. For a moment I though iCloud might work but I don't have that on my computer nor can I download it. Right now the situation seems hopeless, is the only way of solving this by upgrading my old computer or wait until I buy a new one? I feel like there must be some sort of way, but I can't come up with anything else.
Please help me, thank you

I know of no way except to upgrade the computer/purchases newer computer that will handle iTunes 10.7 or later.
If you have a Power PC processor (vice an Intel processor) you need a Mac with an Intel processor.If you computer has an Intel processor just purchase the Snow Leopard upgrade disk About $30

Still having problems with loading cs6 onto new computer. adobe won't contact me?

I have posted this before and I did what was suggested, but have not had any luck with adobe support.
Problem: Mac laptop died. I have cs3 and upgrade to cs6 on the laptop, backed up to external hard drive. i'm trying to install now onto my new computer, but can't load it from the external hard drive, so downloaded cs6 upgrade from adobe from my products. i know i purchased and downloaded cs3 from adobe website, but it doesn't show up on my page. so when i download cs6 and it asks for my serial number, i put it in, but then it won't unlock the software because it's not detecting any other software (cs3) on my new computer. i was told that i had to contact adobe tech support, which i have done multiple times, but have not gotten any response back.
any suggestions?

Oh that's awesome!
Yeah, I have done similar things, that's why it came to mind lol
You're welcome, even though I wasn't a whole lot of help on this issue...
Have a great evening and feel free to return to the forums if you need any other assistance.

Problem with moving itunes to new computer

I recently bought a new computer and when i downloaded Itunes some of my songs did not come through complete. About 50 songs in my library will randomly stop playing in the middle of the song and move on to the next song. I downloaded the latest version of itunes. When I go to my library and play a defective song if i force it to fast forward it will play the remaining part of the song so the music is there. So far the only solution to my problems is an expensive one. only thing I can think of to do is delete the affected songs and pay to redownload them. Is there another way to resolve this issue? When I first noticed the problem itunes did let me redownload 3 songs for free then when I went to do it again ( because I have alot a music and haven't discovered ALL the defective songs yet. I cant find them till they play and I notice it) but when I went to redownload song I already paid for they wanted to charge me again.

Thanks for your advice.
Unfortunately it did not solve the problem.
I’m now convinced that my problem is related to the Intel Viiv Technology.
In an article at tweakdown.com, http://www.tweaktown.com/articles/937/index.html , they proclaim that if you have a computer with Intel Viiv Technology "you’re locked out of iTunes".

Help! With transfering songs to new computer.

I recently purchased a new computer, and I was wondering how to completely transfer my library from my previous comuputer.
Thanks.

Well, there are a number of ways.
1. You can use an external Hard Drive, or Flash Drive. You will simply find the folder on your computer with all of the music, drag it onto the external whatever drive, then plug it into the new computer.
2. There is a specific cable that you can use to connect the computers. I forget what it is called, but if you visit like a Radio Shack or something like that they will help you.
3. You can burn a CD or DVD(preferrably, as it holds much more data) (or multiple, depending how large your library is) for your music, then put that into the new computer. You will put the blank disk into your DVD or CD or whatever it is drive and open iTunes. Then, make a playlist that is small enough to fit on one DVD or CD. Go to this playlist and Click Burn Disk (top right of the iTunes screen).

Help with transferring apps on new computer.

I bought a new computer and have backed up my songs and videos..now I have all my applications that I have no idea how to transfer them to the new computer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Be sure to be logged into your new computer's iTunes (the store via iTunes so it knows your account info) before plugging phone in.
I would also turn off automatic sync first.
Once connected, choose the Transfer purchased content (file menu or context menu off the iPhone menu item on left).
It will copy off anything on your phone you bought via iTunes (include apps).
For things you may have that are not longer on your phone, the app files are also in your iTunes folder of your old computer so just bring them to your new library as well.

Reports 6 using SRW.RUN_REPORT - problem with transferring variable to new report.

I have one report "analyse" that calls another report "pdf".
In "analyse" i have a function pdf_rep:
FUNCTION PDF_Rep(c_proevenummer varchar2) RETURN boolean IS
msg char(150);
BEGIN
SRW.Run_Report
('BATCH=YES
REPORT=PDF
DESTYPE=file
DESFORMAT=PDF
desname=test1.pdf
p_proevenummer='||(c_proevenummer) );
return(true);
exception
     when srw.run_report_failure then
     msg := srw.geterr_run;
     srw.message(1,'err msg: '||msg);
     return(false);
END;
This function is called from BeforeReport-trigger. (or AfterParameterForm-trigger)
The "pdf" query:
select proevenummer
from View_Analyse
where proevenummer= :p_proevenummer;
The "pdf" report is run and a test1.pdf file is made BUT the where-clause is NOT performed.
What do i do wrong ?

Hello,
If you copy the parameters displayed by srw.message and create a BAT file with these parameters
and rwrun60 :
rwrun60 <the paremeters displayed by srw.message>
Does the report run correctly ?

Having Problems with 10.5.57? Then Please Read!

If you've installed the 10.5.7 update and are having problems there are some possible remedies. Most often the problems are created by an existing problem in the system that is updated. Here are some things to do that could help:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Download the 10.5.7 Combo Updater and reinstall the update. Prior to installation remove all third-party peripherals. Use only the original keyboard and mouse that came with your computer.
3. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder and repair permissions again.
If this does not solve your problems, then you need to restore the backup of your old system, then follow the above instructions. If that doesn't solve your problem, then you may need to reinstall OS X from scratch or have your computer checked for possible hardware failure.

Yes. They are inconsequential errors. See,
Mac OS X 10.5- Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions reports issues with SUID files and OS X 10.5- Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions messages that you can safely ignore.

Problem with Black 80gb Classic.. Please read on

Hi all,
i have recently bought a 80 gb blk iPod classic. Well it was 4 weeks ago and im already experiencing abnormal shuddowns.
On the 25the Nov (Today) i was just using the stopwatch to time my speech and while i was writin it, i put it aside, on. When i picked it back up to time my speech again, it just wouldnt turn on. I had to do the reseting method (Hold toggle, select and menu thing) and i had to restore it on itunes. can someone explain this and please tell me this is normal
TY ALL FOR SUCH A GOOD DISCUSSION

You'll probably have to either RMA your system to MSI, or have al local repair shop reprogram your BIOS for you. I'm facing the same situation with my system, because I followed the procedures listed by MSI on the BIOS update page. Come to find out, they had neglected to post instructions that current BIOS versions between 700 and 708 would need to be flashed with an intermediate version prior to flashing 717. The best part about the whole thing, they didn't update their update page with this information, or the intermediate BIOS file, until the day after my system was bricked. Now I get to pay shipping and insurance to ship my system to them, and be without it for 3+ weeks, because of their neglect. Yay... I probably should've stayed with ASUS. lol

Problems with transferring iTunes Library to new iMac

I am having a problem with transferring my iTunes library to my new iMac. I have read many of the suggestions posted in this forum along with numerous articles on other sites. I have not seen anyone describe my exact problem.
When I got my new iMac, I used Migration Assistant to transfer everything (files, applications, settings, etc.) from my old iMac to the new iMac. On my old iMac, the iTunes music folder (i.e., the actual mp3s) are on an external HD, while the iTunes Library file (the database and xml files) were in the /user/Music/ folder on the old iMac.
After the Migration Assistant was done, the /user/music/ folder and the library files were copied to the new iMac, but the iTunes music folder was not. It is still on the external HD.
If I open iTunes on the new iMac, iTunes shows me all of my songs, but if I play one, I get the "song can't be found; do you want to find it" error. In iTunes preferences on the new iMac, the "iTunes music folder location" is the new iMac.
I have the 2 iMacs connected by a firewire cable, but neither iMac recognizes the other computer as being on the same network. That is, in Finder on the new iMac, I cannot see the external HD of the old iMac.
I can't change the library location on the old iMac, because the new iMac does not appear in Finder or in the "Change Music Folder Location" dialog box.
I want to move the music folder (the actual mp3s) from the external HD of the old iMac to the INTERNAL HD of the new iMac. I don't need to keep them on the old IMac, as I will be selling that computer. Of course, I want to keep all my playlists, artwork, etc from the old library.
Does anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks.

Never mind. Figured it out. I attached external HD to new iMac and consolidated. Duh.

I just got a new computer with Windows 7 and all my songs were transferred to my new computer along with itunes. But I can't get it to work. I also tried downloading Quicktime and couldn't get it to download.

I just bought a new computer and had files transferred along with itunes to the new computer. I can't get it to work. It doesn't recognize the extensions for itunes. I also tried downloading Quicktime and couldn't get it to download.

iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13 version. Evidently something in that extension isn't compatible with a Firefox security fix. Disable that extension or un-install it.
