Replaced hard drive on Mac, now I can't manually manage music on Itunes. Itunes prompted me to erase everything on Iphone.

I changed my mac hard drive, but when I plugged my Iphone in, Itunes will not let me manually manage my music anymore. It says the iphone can only be synced to one library at a time and I must delete everything on the Iphone to let me manage music. How can I find a workaround to this?

> Transfer your itunes library from your backup external disc.<
How do ya do that? I might give that a shot for a similar issue. (I'm trying to put iTunes music onto her iPhone 4S and have checked the 'manually manage' box, but when I click apply, I get the 'Erase & Sync' prompt ... and she's not willing to let me do that. So she's got no music on her iPhone. Don't have that problem when I go to add music on her iPad, though.)

I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard and I had to reload it on my computer due to my hard drive crashing. Now I can only open and view PDF’s and I cannot edit them as I could before such as using Tools>Comment&Markup or Tools>Advanced Editing>TouchUp Text Tool. All the functions are greyed out. Please advise.

What's your OS? Acrobat 8 is not compatible with any modern OS.

You do not.
Download the media on a computer and import it to iTunes.

Can't manually manage music from my new computer :/

My previous laptop crashed recently, so I was unable to do any kind of deauthorization or anything. I can't manually manage my music, now, without erasing my entire library on my phone. Is there any way around this? Or do I just bite the bullet and watch all of my money disappear?

" I can't manually manage my music, now, without erasing my entire library on my phone. "
Correct.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything on your new computer.
If for some reason you have failed to backup your computer, not good, then transfer your itunes purchases to your new computer from your iphone. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

Replaced hard drive in Mac book pro now what

I just replaced the hard drive now what?

Why did you replace it if you didn't know what to do?
First, partition and format the drive for OS X.
Then, Install OS X on the drive.
Since you did not provide information on the Mac model you are using nor the version of OS X you plan to install, there's little more to tell you.

Replacing Hard Drive in MAC Pro

Sorry if this has been asked. I purchased a used MAC Pro from a friend that needed money. The hard drive is too small to accommodate all the software on my other MAC so Migration Assistant will not work. I know how to put secondary drives in and format them. How do I replace the primary drive with a larger one? I don't know how to install a clean hard drive on a MAC and start from scratch. I am also planning on adding more RAM but I do know how to do that. Thanks

Pretty simple on the Mac Pro. Just pull the tray with the primary drive out (there are no cables to worry about) and then also pull out one of the secondary trays. Put a new drive in one of the secondary trays, then slide it into the primary slot, and put the former primary drive into the vacant secondary slot.
Then you just install a fresh copy of OS X from the install DVD. Just put it in the drive and hold down "C" at boot. Then follow the instructions on screen, and Migration Assistant will pick up the second drive and do it's thing.
Finally, Mac is not an acronym so doesn't need to be in all caps. It's short for Macintosh... Like the apple you can buy in a grocery store.

Installing CS6 on a replacement hard drive (same Mac Book Pro)

I am running the latest version of CS 6 on an older (2008) 15" Mac Book Pro (OSX 10.8.2), when I'm away on assignment. The original 200GB hard drive needs to be replaced and in preparation I've cloned the complete system onto an external hard drive. I'll be replacing the original hard drive with a larger (1TB) version and can clone everything back onto the newly installed hard drive when it arrives. But in the "test" I tried today, PS CS6 would not open. How do I go about installing my legally obtained and paid for copy of CS6 onto the new hard drive? Do I de activate the present version, then download a copy to the new hard drive and activate it that way or will that be seen as a third machine, since I have one copy on a desk top and once on the old hard drive in the Mac Book Pro. I just don't want to loose a CS6 activation?
TYhanks for any wisdom on this

Do I de activate the present version, then download a copy to the new hard drive and activate it that way
Exactly. All Adobe programs must be properly installed for the licensing system to work. If you have trouble and get warnings, call support to reset activations.

My hard drive crashed and now I can't find my playlists.

Had to have my hard drive replaced and now I lost all of my playlists. How do I get them back?

In which case, unless you have an existing subscription to iTunes Match, you're out of luck. I could have helped pull back the media and playlists from the device if they hadn't been wiped already.
I guess you could take a look at this iLounge Article anyway. In some cases the database on a device can be wiped without actually deleting the hidden media content. Even if it has been wiped there may be a chance that an undelete tool could restore the deleted files, but it is a long shot. Either way the playlists are gone for good.
For the future see Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy. The tool can also be used to backup other important documents and data.

Hard drive at 100% - now I can't boot.

I have done something stupid.
Forgetting that my internal hard drive was nearly full, I was moving some iMovie footage from an external drive when I accidentally filled my iMacs drive.
The Finder window said 0kb free, and then my aging old iMac (April 09) decided to lock up and freeze.
I hard power cycled using the button on the back for about 5sec, but now it wont boot past the apple logo.
Is there a way to emergency boot to move off enough data so I can boot properly and back everything that hasnt been backed up before I retire this old workhorse?

Try to boot your Mac in Safe Mode by Pressing and Holding the Shift key while Booting and see if your Mac turn's ON and once you are Logged in to your User Account try to Backup as much Data as you can on your External Hard Drive and then free up some space on the Internal Hard Drive (keep atleast 20% free space for a Good Performance) and after removing the unwanted Data from the Internal HD on your Mac Restart your Mac and see if it boots in Normal Mode.

How do I get LR4 to find all photos in catalog after replacing hard drive on mac? question marks all

I had the hard drive replaced on my mac. I did a restore from back up drive to my new hard drive. First LR4 couldn't find the catalog so I pointed to it. Then I opened lightroom 4 and it cannot see ANY of my photos. I don't want to link each folder full of photos it will take hours. Isn't there another way to do this so it finds them all at once? Photos are still located in the same location on the new hard drive after restore. Nothing changed except the hard drive. Thank you!

I did find something in another post that suggests to go to the top most file in the structure and right click and click on "find missing folder" then you point to that folder and it will find all subfolders and photos. This really worked well for most of the photos but I have I must have moved at some point that I will have to relocate. This is good information whether you are working with a Mac or a PC. I think it would work for either. I hope this helps someone else out there.

Suggestions on Replacement Hard Drive for Mac Book Pro

I have a MBP - 15-inch, Late 2008 - the apple tech tells me its starting to get daaged- before it goes I want to replace it.
She told me to go to Newegg and purchase one there...however not sure what to get...
I want a 1TB drive if its possible....anybody got some qualified advice...
Thanks.

Almost any 2.5" SATA hard drive can be used. Recommend that you get a 7200 rpm drive, you will appreciate the increased performance over what you currently have. Just be aware there are not many 1TB 2.5" drives around. The only ones OWC carry at this point are Hitachi and Toshiba. I wouldn't buy either brand.
I just successfully installed a WD Scorpio Black (750GBm 7200 rpm) in my MBP. Both physical installation & installation of OS X went without a hitch. It's running like a charm.
Also, you will need 1 tiny & 1 small phillips screwdriver and a small torx screwdriver to open your MBP and replace the drive.
