Recovered purchased content after HD crash

Hi
I recently lost content purchased from the store due to a hard disk crash. I replaced disk and installed iTunes etc and signed into the store to re-download the content. When I click the Purchased link I can see everything that I've purchased, but when I click 'Not on this Computer' about half the content (several $) worth does not show up, as if for some reason iTunes thinks I have aleady downloaded to the new disk, which I have not. Any ideas on how I can retreive the complete content please ?
Thanks

From your computer backup.
Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability by country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.

Is it possible to Recover a document after InDesign crash?

Is it possible to Recover a document after InDesign crash?
I was creating a long document in InDesign and after placing some bad Word
document, Indesign crashed..
The bad thing is that I didn't save file before a crash, and after reopening
file after crash I realized that 60 pages are missing..
Can I recover this information somehow?
Does InDesign makes AutoSave files (and how can I open them?)
Thank you in advance,
R.

Does InDesign makes AutoSave files (and how can I open them?)
Isn't it what it does actually ? When it offers recovery, I guess it opens what it can. The other datas may be missing or truncated.
So basically, I would say that your 60pages datas are lost for ever.
You could try to open the document directly and see if it makes any differencies.
Another way, but never understood how to process on my own, should be to fix the information opening the indd file in a txt editor (like notepad). But I am afraid it's more a fantasy than a real opportunity. Anyway, trying so will be more time consuming than doing the things again.
The more scriptable thing I see right now would be a permanent script that would save a copy every minute for example. But I don't know if it's a real good way of thinking.
Another great script is activated by a shortkey " Ctrl + S" ;-)
This is a script you really learn with experience and that become a reflex. I know it could sound like a mockery, buit it's not.
It's just that sometimes this is the best way to avoid problems.
Anyway, I hope someone gives you a better answer.

Purchased movies after hd-crash gone

If you do get it resolved you may want to consider a backup

Recovering NSS pool after server crash

Server crashed the other day - a SLES 11 sp1 XEN host server system with 3 VMs, 2 OES servers (SLES 10 sp3) NSS pools/partitions and 1 pure SLES 11 server. After the crash (due either to power reset or raid controller failure) I had to run fsck to clear up multiple, multiple error conditions on the SLES partitions in order for the servers to reboot. Once booted up, edir and of course NSS would not load. eDir has been recovered and is now running but one of these servers (the one with most all of the data on NSS) is unstable and still has some boot problems. Would the following be a viable option at this point:
1. Take this server out of the tree (if possible)
2. Install fresh, new OES server in a logical drive
3. Join the existing tree
4. Attach the NSS partition to this server
5. Bring up NSS
Any reason why this would not work to get to a stable server that can mount the existing NSS pool/partition? Thanks.
Don

That will work, assuming the new server does not have a volume/pool by the same name already.

Recovering Purchased Music after Computer Stolen?

Recently my computer was stolen and my iPod completely broke while I was working in Africa. I have since purchased a new computer (thanks mostly to very generous people, thank you!) I was wondering if there was a way to redownload the music I purchased from iTunes onto my new computer as the whole thing was lost the old one. I couldn't update my iPod because it was broken. There's probably no way around this and I'm going to have to struggle with no music for a while, but I was hoping that people much much smarter than myself might be able to help out. Thank you.

If your iPod had been working, the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
However, the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
"Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage."
You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on any of the links on this page you'll find a space at the bottom to email your query: iTMS Customer Service

Recovering purchased music when computer crashes

My friends computer has crashed and she lost all of her downloaded music. This made me think about the music I have purchased through the iTunes music store... If my computer crashes and I lose my downloads, is there a way to recover the music I have purchased? Is there a record of my purchases and can I get them again without repurchasing them?

Store policy states that downloads are a one time deal & it's the user's responsibility to backup important files. The store will even send you a reminder to backup your files after every 10-15 downloads. I would strongly suggest that you begin a regular backup program for your music by burning data CD/DVD's or using an external HD. Do not count on the store to allow you to re-download, in case of a disaster, backing up, now, will save you a lot of grief if disaster strikes.

IOS 5 Update - Not possible to recover Purchased apps after having changed the country of origin

All
I am currently struggling to restore my apps that I have purchased on my iPhone 4. I can see my purchase history but here is the problem: The majority of the apps were purchased when my iTunes account was still linked to my German bank account/Region. I have changed the region and payment details when in relocated to the UK. The question is now how can I restore my apps made while my account was linked to my German details? I already tried to restore my payment information and region but no luck so far.
Can anybody assist me with this problem? Any input would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

@shadow221, unfortunately that method only retured my previously backedup photos and nothing else. After attempting restoring it back to a few Backups with failed attempts, I just gave up.
Some users mentioned doing a complete restore to factory setting and do a backup but it just screwed with my ipod and no music back. So i just let it be. I reloaded my old tracks from iTunes, my Apps, unfortunately iTunes doesnt give me any option to reload any of my videos FML.
I did the above and wasted a good day and a half of my life reloading (on my pc) 300 songs, now I only have 1,200+ more to download to match my previous library contents. Thanks Apple.
PS: i called Apple a week before the iOS 5 release and an associate explained that it will NOT delete my library if I do the update---thanks much for the warning!!!

How do I organise iTunes purchases/content after moving abroad? Please help...

Please can someone advise in simple terms, I am so confused!
I have recently moved with my young family from the UK to the USA. We are hoping this will be a permanent move, but this is yet to be confirmed. We will be visiting the uk hopefully every year and no doubt take the phones and iPads with us. Between us we have:
Ipad 2
Ipad minis x 2
Apple TV
iPhone 4s
iPhone 5c
All my iTunes content is stored on my hp laptop, including many CDs and DVDs that I converted to an apple format. Purchases in the uk include 10 albums, 10 movies, 1 tv show, 27 books, a gazillion apps (most of those free, apart from I know I purchased minecraft and the kids have spent hours creating worlds on there!). Most of all this is for the children. I don't tend to store any content on the devices themselves unless we are planning a long trip. We tend to rely on wifi and home sharing to access all content from my laptop.
I've just started to look at changing the iTunes Store location/credit card from the UK to the USA. I went to an apple shop to help me do this to make sure I was going about it the right way, I even purchased frozen movie from iTunes Store whilst I was in the apple store, to check it worked. It did, but on the device I updated - ipad 2 - I can no longer see the movies or music that were there before. I've refrained from changing any other devices as yet. The apps all seem to be there however. (I understand that some of these apps may not get updates if I don't change to the USA iTunes Store, since they were obtained in the uk).
I basically need to understand what options I have in terms of easily being able to access all content (whether converted or downloaded content) ideally via homesharing, as the kids are used to that.
1) in settings do I keep the uk iTunes Store and uk credit card linked to it, and continue to make purchases from there (is this even possible?) Would purchasing a uk VPN help with this?
2) in settings do I convert to the USA iTunes Store and USA credit card - on all devices - and if so, how can we access all our content? If this is an option I would greatly appreciate instructions on what to do.
I think one option would be to just change the country/credit card details in settings each time we wish to access something from the 'other' store - but this isn't really practical with all our devices and 2 young kids who just wouldn't understand why they can't see all their movies in the cloud! I don't have time to permanently be switching details on their devices all day!
Many thanks in advance for any guidance on this. I really want to get everything working smoothly.

You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
That is sometimes refured of redownloading from iCloud.
If the media is not current available from iTunes/APp store yo can't rdownload it. In the USA, ringtones and audio books are not redownloadable.
For complete list see:
iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability

How do I recover my history after a crash?

I've had firefox crash twice in the past week which of course deletes all bookmarks and history. Because of the way Firefox is with everything hidden in places.sqlite they are difficult to recover. They give you backup of bookmarks, but not of history. Is there any addon or any way of retrieving history? I made a backup of the old profile and started new for now. I tried sqlite browser, but it doesn't work on places.sqlite. I tired renaming the corrupt file and deleting the others. No luck. How do I get history back?

Sry about it. Yes history is stored in places.sqlite
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox#Files
places.sqlite

Locked or Damaged places.sqlite

Check and tell if its working.

Problems Recovering iPhoto files after a Crash

Hi All! I could really use assistance! I have an iMac running OS 10.6.8 with iPhoto '09 (v.8.1.2) The boot drive crashed and Genius Bar told me it was not recoverable and would need to be replaced. I couldn't even boot from install disk. I didn't belive them and took it home, tried booting from disc over and over until it finally worked. Repaired and reformatted with Disc Utility and restored from Time Machine. Things were a little funky, icons messed up etc. so I restored system sortware. Everything seems to be working well now EXCEPT for the last batch of photos I uploaded to iPhoto while the HD was in the process of dying.
Here's the wierd part, and the reason I am starting a new discussion. I haven't seen this particular problem on other threads. I can still see ALL photos (good and bad) as thumbnails, in both Events and Photos, I can create albums with the bad pix, but if I double click to see them full frame, or try to edit them I get the gray "!". I can't export the bad pix either. Even if I try exporting as current file type, I get the error message "Unasble to create..."
There is no logic I can figure out, why some are gone and some are working, all in the same set. Only thing I can think of is that the ones I modified in some way disappeared.
I searched for the file names of the missing photos, they are nowhere to be found. I opened the iPhoto Library, looked in both original and modified folders, and those pix are not in either, yet I can still see them in thumbnail versions. At this point I assume I have lost them for good, but I would love to at least save the thumbnail size versions and use them. BTW, the info on the bad photos still shows the name and file size corectly.
Any hints at all, how I can recover, or at least work with the thumbnails?
Thanks!
Escott

No, I never recoverd them. They are lost, other than the low rez thumbnails. Now when I donwload from my camera I leave them on the camera and only erase much later when I need the space. By that time Time Machine has backed them up.
