TS1702 I had to buy another computer,and itunes didnt redownload all of my purchases
I had to buy another computer,and itunes didnt redownload all of my purchases.About $40 worth of music!!
If they were bought via the same iTunes account and they are still available in the store but they don't show under the Purchased link for re-downloading then you can contact iTunes support and see if they can see why they don't show : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
If they are no longer in the store then you will need to copy them from your backup.

I plugged my iPhone into another computer and it looks like I lost all my data. How do I undo this? I tried plugging it back into my default computer and it makes me register the phone. I don't want to lose all my data.
That's certainly odd... the activation being lost could have been a carrier issue or iOS software issue...
Was the phone already working and activated prior to this issue?
You may be stuck with having to restore...
By default iTunes or iCloud (whichever you have designated) will back up your content and settings... Content wise remember it's still always in iTunes even if you remove it from the phone...
If a back up was performed prior to you have this issue (either by iTunes or iCloud) then performing the restore will take a bit but wont cause you to loose anything as after the restore is completed iTunes will ask if you want to restore from a back up or set up as a new device... choose the restore from back up option and choose the most recent back up listed and it will then restore all your settings and content...
Keep in mind this will only be ture IF a back up has recently been saved in iTunes or iCloud...
In iTunes it's easy to tell... open iTunes and go to prefferences... go to the devices tab and it will tell you the device and last date/time of last back up...
Unfortunately I'm not aware of how to check to when the last iCloud backup was performed UNLESS you happen to have another iOS device already... another iPhone or iPad for example...
If you do, then on that other iOS device... goto Settings > General > Manage Storage (under the iCloud section) and it will show you any iCloud back ups youve done with any devices -

I had to replace my hard drive and now when I plug in my iPad, itunes says it is synced with another library
That is because the iPad can only "sync" to one iTunes library at a time. You can move all of the iPad contents into a new iTunes library. This discussion will give you a lot of useful information.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3305461
This one is Mac specific - not that it is any different except for the iTunes menu.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3445538?start=0&tstart=0
Remember to authorize the computer in iTunes first - From the iTunes menu go to Store>Authorize this computer. -
Its a long story, but the short version is my computer hads been lost at the repair shop. I now have to download all my purchases, Apps and books down again onto my ipad. I have found my purchase (songs and TV Shows) but I cant find my apps I have all the receipts. What do I do now?
Before you do what Hunter suggested, you need to authorize the iTunes account on the new computer. To authorize, Store > Authorize This Computer. Use your current Apple ID and Password. Then connect your iPad and transfer your purchases.

Hi, I'm selling my current computer that my iPod is synced to and want to un-sync (I think the correct term of phase is) my iPod from my current computer, so i can then sync it to my new computer without downloading any software or deleting all my data. Is this possible? If so, please tell me how. As usual, any help would be helpful.
Do this:
- iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive
- Then import into your new computer
- Copy any synced photos to the new computer
- Backup the ipd to the new computer
iOS: How to back up
- Restore the iPod from that backup. The link directly above says how. -

My computer died and I had to buy another one. Now I can't sync my ipod classic. What is the deal with this? I added songs about three months ago and it was fine. Now it won't sync. It says it can't sync because there is a duplicate file.
There are server problems right now with iMessage effecting some users. See http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/.

Had 3G, moved to 3GS. Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem on a Dell computer. But now when I want to add songs, I get itunes message of death that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything. How can I add music without erasing everything on my new iphone?
Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me. Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?

I use to have a iTunes account with my old computer, and I have lost all my iTunes music, some purchased, some downloaded from another source. Now I'm using a brand new computer (Windows) and I have opened a NEW iTunes account, but I now I need to figure out if it is possible to recoup my music content that I originally had. I had, I believe around close to 300 songs on my account ;(......Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Again, Ronald

Now remove all your info and update the old AppleiD/iTunes account and use only that account.
You cannot transfer items between iTunes accounts.
You can redownload all the content. -
I had to completely reset my computer and re -download the I tunes program. Now none of the music I had before is in my playlist. Where did it all go? How can I get them back?
You can redownload the stuff you bought from the iTunes Store using the Purchased link on the right side of the homepage.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
You can also Transfer Purchases from your iPhone, but you'll have re-import the stuff off that wasn't bought through iTunes because of copyright laws (or search Google for another app). -
I recently purchased a Mac OS X 10.6.6 which was an upgrade from my Mac OS version 10.4.1.1 I downloaded the Adobe Photoshop CS2 which I had on my old computer and now it cannot read my NEF files which is a RAW file from my Nikon D200. I did not have this problem on my old Mac. I always shoot RAW and can't open any photos. Can anyone help me PLEASE?!?
Do you have access to another Mac to see if the disk can be read by it? If it can't then you're pretty sure it's the disk. If it can then there may be issues with your optical drive which might be cleared up by using a cleaning disk on it, one that uses dry brushes (no liquid).
If you have access to another Mac and it can read the iWork disk make a disk image of it so you can move the disk image to your iMac and install from the disk image.
