I just fix my macbook air because it was kernel panic. They changed the hard drive. I could not back up with Time Machine, because it did not work and I had over Adobe creative suite 5 design premium student. But I finished my studies last year and I'd like to know how to get the serial number for me to reinstall Adobe creative suite 5 design premium when I am no longer study because I would still like the used? It is not fair if I do anymore because I really need.

You can download Creative Suite 5 here:

To deal with the issue of the serial number and using it again, you'll have to use Web Chat. Here's a link:

Filled the hard drive, now it won't find hardrive on start.

Was recording video straight to Imac hard-drive. Was a bit careless in watching space being taken up and in the middle of day two for auditions my computer shuts down, "BLACKOUT". Power back on the thing with the feeling I filled the HD space. I was down to the megabytes . Ever-since the computer has run SUPER Slow at processing anything for a week now.
Note:
Vital Data on Hardrive I need so can't just wipe it clean.
Attempt 1: Disk repair with OS Disc. There was an inconsistency in file count and repair was sucessful. But computer runs really slow and actually doesn't even start anymore, shows folder with question mark. #fail
Attempt 2: TARGET DISK MODE Tried copying the files to another mac with Imac in target disk mode but transfer is speed ridiculous. I'm talking about moving 254megabytes and it taking over 15minutes and gets stuck at 10megabytes. #fail
Attempt 3: Maybe its just overheating due to whatever. Dropped some fans in the area to keep it even cooler. Circulating the hot air away and introducing the rooms AC, lol #fail
Need help!! Before I bring this thing to be looked at anyone has a solution? Figured I filled the harddrive and messed up vital space the computer needs to operate with.

Macs need a minimum of 10-15% of the HD space left available to run well, considering you have managed to fill yours up you can either suffer through the offloading some files to an external HD or start over. If you have backed up, then I'd recommend doing an erase and install then restoring from your backup. Then you can start with a clean slate and manage you space better, if you haven't been backing in up and your system is so full you cannot offload files I'm afraid you're out of luck and are in the process of learning a tough lesson.

MacBook pro boots to prohibited sign and apple has replaced the Hard drive and it's still didnt fix. They want to replace the hard drive AGAIN?!

I've had this issue for almost a month now, and they have tried multiple things to fix it from software re-installs to wiping the drive and they replaced the hard drive and cable but now that it is still not working they are suggesting installing another hard drive after it clearly didn't work the last time they replaced it. Help! I've contacted customer relations and the only thing she told me over and over is that they are working diligently to fix it. I'm a music teacher and that is currently the only computer i have and I use July to prep all my lesson plans and music. School starts august 18th and I feel like I'll be back in the store with the same problem again right when school starts. Any suggestions, ill probably be writing a letter very soon, any other suggestions?
Btw I have tried not backing up from time machine to rule out the possibility of something of mine corrupting it and it still did it.
Thanks for your help apple community!

Wholly Crap, No Joke, the lady from the apple store called me up at like 5pm and said "You know what?" and my reply was....... "what" and she goes, "You've been very patient and we understand you've been in and out in the last 3 weeks so we've decided to just give you a brand new computer" She gave me a brand new MBP! SO FREAKIN STOKED, my 2008 macbook pro for a new 2011 2.2ghz with 4 gigs of memory (Upgradeable to 8!!) The only downside is that since I use this for recording audio with Pro Tools well as recording audio with Pro Tools I needed the 7200rpm drive like my last one, and with her eyes i felt the "Beggars Cant be choosy" look flow upon me. But I shrugged it off and She actually told me to take this one, use it for the next week while the one she is ordering for me comes in!! So Bottom line IMHO (first time i've ever used that acronym in a forum) Apple Definitely has some awesome customer service!!
--this is one of those posts that I usually read and say "***, why cant that be me!!"
I <3 Apple.

How do I take the hard drive cover off?

I bought a HP Pavilion 17-e119wm Notebook PC about a month ago. The hard drive faIled so HP sent me a new one to install. It came with instructions on how to take it out of the HDD bracket but not how to take the back cover off. I took out all the screws but nothing is giving and I don't want to force it and have it break.
I called the tech number and the guy I talked to couldn't help me any further so he said to send it in for repair.
This is rediculous! Do I have to give it some elbow grease? Stick a flat head screw driver under it?
Getting this far was so easy and they shipped the hard drive overnight I thought that for once something will go smoothly..... I was wrong! Please help!
This question was solved.

I am trying to retrieve folders- they do not appear in Thunderbird, but are on the hard drive.

1. I have used Thunderbird for 5 years or so, using at least 3 mail addresses at a time. I stow useful mails in folders and subfolders for reference. I regularly use Mozbackup.
2. Recently I found that one of the main folders was missing, a search of the hard drive revealed that the.msf folders are there, but I dont know how to restore them.
3. In an effort to retrieve them from a Mozbackup file, i found that email addresses 1,2 and 3 were available.
This was not useful as email addresses 2 and 3 had been replaced by email addresses 4 and 5 3 years ago. (Mozbackup issue)
4. Thus I now have only folders from email 1 and all other from emails 4 and 5 have gone.
Would be grateful for any help

re: 2.'' Recently I found that one of the main folders was missing, a search of the hard drive revealed that the.msf folders are there, but I dont know how to restore them.''
*.msf files are indexing files. They do not contain emails.
If there is eg:
Inbox file with no extension is an mbox file; this is the file with emails.
Inbox.msf is the indexing file. Does not contain emails.
If you have imap mail account, then you would need to synchronise a subscribed folder to get a copy into your thunderbird Profile. Then it will create an mbox file.
If the Folder was only a subscribed folder, but not synchronised, then there will not be any emails stored in your profile folder.
Subscribed foldres only download headers and when you select to view an email, a copy of the folder or xx emails if that option is selected, is downloaded to a temporary folder which is used to get quicker access to emails. These emails are not stored in your profile, they are stored on the server.
So, please tell us what you use.
re: mail accounts 1, 4 and 5
Are the mail accounts IMAP or Pop?
If mail account 4 and 5 were IMAP mail accounts, then these emails will be stored on the server.
So create new IMAP mail account and you should see all emails on the server.

I had a brand new Mac book pro one month old and the hard drive died. Right before it died I was down loading pictures off a memory card and now they aren't on my memory card! They are wedding pictures I took for a friend and irreplaceable! Please help!!

I had a one month old Mac book pro and the hard drive fried! I was down loading a friends wedding pictures when it stopped working and started heating up. I plugged it in and turned it off as it was making a clicking noise. When I turned it back on the was a grey box with a question mark and nothing else. When I took my memory card out the pictures were gone. I took it back to best buy where I bought it and they said it was dead, needed a new hard drive and all my info is lost! Is there any way to get back those irreplaceable wedding pictures?

There are some data recovery programs (software). I would look into that for the images on the card. When files are deleted, the files are still there, just the headers are removed. That being said, a format of the card or new files written to the card can overwrite deleted files.
The physical hard drive could be thousands of dollars to forensically save, with no guarantee.

Time Machine appears to be doing back-ups, but they do not appear on the external hard drive. The last one I can find is June 30. I did a utility scan of the hard drive disk and it is fine.

- Transfer your iTunes' purchases to the new computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Try making a backup of the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Backup.
- Connect your new iPod and restore the iPod from that backup if you wish.

I rented a movie on iTunes and it now has filled my hard drive and I can't get it off. Something is wrong and I need a solution before I try to reinstall the Mac OS to reformat

I rented a movie on iTunes and it now has filled my hard drive and has taken up all my harddrive space.....How can I remove the after math of the rented movie and fix this problem..? Oddly enough it does show the startup drive is not full.

In iTunes select the movie and hit Delete. Follow the prompts and then empty the trash.

My macbook pro crashed and the hard drive was replaced. How do I restore my backup pre- 9.6 iphoto library to the 9.6.1 iphoto library? They look completely different.

My macbook pro crashed and the hard drive was replaced. How do I restore my backup pre- 9.6 iphoto library to the 9.6.1 iphoto library? They look completely different. When I look at my backed-up iphoto library folder I see lots of files and folders: ALbumData.xml, Attachments folder, etc. The 9.6.1 iphoto library doesn't appear to be a folder at all. Help!

iPhoto 6 and earlier libraries were regular folders with the kind of files your reporting. With the advent of iPhoto 7 the library folder was changed to a package similar to the application packages but have essentially the same files and folders inside. There's no reason to have access to the inside of the iPhoto Library so Apple changed them to packages.
Do you have a backup copy of the iPhoto Library from before the HD crash. If so restore it to the Pictures folder in your Home folder. If you previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 or earlier download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 on your library before trying to open it with iPhoto 9.6.1.

Hi,
The simplest solution would to restore from your back up - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4112
If you do not have a back, you can select first track on list in song view, from menu > edit > select all. Next ctrl+click and select download from pop up. You may wish to do this in small batches as it will take some time to download.

i purchased windows 7 from amazon and i just received it. they sent me windows 7 home premium "OEM System Builder Pack". the instructions say "Intended for system builders only". also says " must be per installed on the hard drive of a fully assembled computer system, using the OEM Preinstallation kit (OPK)."

System Builder - just be sure to get 64-bit version, no one needs or wants 32-bit today, and only comes with one, while retail ships with both 32/64-bit media.
you can't install it and activate on different hardware later is all, and by then for what you saved, so what, Windows 8 or SP2 will be out.
A few people had trouble with Windows 7 SP1 for some reason and not sure exactly why, changes to the boot loader on the DVD I presume.

They filled the hard drive
