TS1702 Ive recently replaced the mother board on my laptop and Ive lost all my itunes purchases. It says I have them but files can not be located. What can I do to retrieve them?

I can see names of music/video files but says I can't locate files. Is there a way to re-download the files. When I go to the list it says that I've already downloaded the items to this computer. They're lost. Please help. Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Delete the entries from iTunes and then redownload them.

Music Rescue also works as far as restoring your playlists etc. I've used it twice, you can use the Quick Recover mode, but have to click continue trial (something like that) allot, cp. to purchase option. Otherwise diesel is right as far as restoring via your purchase history.
Here is a review of Music Rescue.

I downloaded apps purchased with another Apple ID. But my data is missing. What can I do to get them back? I have a different iCloud id.

All apps are tied forever to the Apple ID used to obtain them, that is also true with In-App purchases.
Content bought using one Apple ID cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID.

You have a backup of your computer, or at the very least of your iTunes media, correct?
Simply copy your backup of your iTunes media into the iTunes library on your new computer.
Connecting and syncing your device to the new computer without first recovering your iTunes media is a really, really, really bad idea. iDevices are designed to ONLY sync with one computer. When you plug your device into a new computer, it will wipe all media on the device when it syncs. The only media you may be able to salvage and transfer to the new computer would be anything bought directly on the device.
If you do not have a backup of your iTunes media, then you will want to either look at a way (using software from a third party company) to either extract the media from you iDevice or your old computer (assuming the hard drive is not toast).

HT1689 I have purchased some app's like Whatsapp, Flashlight and more from App Store and after about 3 days of usage, all refuse to open up. I have received acknowledgement of payment via email. What should I do to reinstate them?

BRAWO!!!! It solves the problem.
Just hope that i would not be forced to download free Apps every thir day.
Here by us in South Africa, downloads is costing one.
Anyhow, thank you once more.

The hard drive on our computer died and we lost all of our purchases in the account. Is there a way to recover the songs we have paid for? If we plug in our iPod to a new account, won't it erase everything during the synch process? Help!

If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( not good), then transfer purchases form your ipod.
Without syncing, click File>Transfer Purchases

Hey Beata G,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. If you are unable to install the software update, you may need to plug the iPad Mini into a power source. If it is below a certain percentage in power it will require power to ensure that iPad Mini does not loose power when installing. If you still have issues the following article will walk you through that process and also if you want to update the iPad Mini through iTunes.

Hello pen pang,
if your Photoshop is a part of Creative Cloud you can use "Manage your membership and payments|Creative Cloud" at
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/membership-subscription-troubleshooting- creative-cloud.html >>>
Payment & credit card >>> Help changing the credit card on your account >>> from there see what hints are listed.
On the other hand I'm sure that you can use the recommended procedure with a "normal" PS too.
If necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and if "open" please use the chat, I had the best experiences. I quote from Adobe's employee Preran: The chat button is activated as soon as there is an agent available to help.
If you need these explanations in another language, please use "Change" at the end/bottom of the website from above
Good luck!

My old computer broke and I lost all my Itunes music. I have a new computer and I can get all my music from Itunes except for my ringtones. How can I download them again without buying them again?

My old computer broke and I lost all my music. I have now purchased a new computer and downloaded all my music again through the store but can not figure how to download my ringtones again. How do you download your ringtones again without buying them again??? Thankyou in advance

You cannot redownload ringtones.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. Have you failed to do this?

I am having problems with the installation of Adobe Acrobat. I received an Error 103 the setup file can not be located. Can someone help

I am trying to install Adobe Acrobat after I purchased the monthly membership. I did receive help but the after the installation is complete I receive error 103 which states that the setup file can not be located.

Hi uniquenader,
Did you encounter any errors during installation? Which OS are you using?
Did you have any previous versions of Acrobat / Reader installed?
Please use the Acrobat Cleaner tool ( Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs ) to remove the software completely,
Re-download, reinstall and check.

My Macbook is 5 years old (purchase date July 06). It suddenly broke down : the diagnostic by Apple is that I have to replace the Mother Board.

My Macbook is 5 years old (purchased July 06). It suddenly broke down. The diagnostic by Apple Store is : I must replace the Carte Mere (Mother Board ?). The repair cost is outrageous ( $800). I cannot afford it and do not accept it. IT tech is supposed to last longer than a mere FIVE years. Even if it is out of date after a year, a computer should not technically fail like that. That is what I cannot accept. Will Apple pay for it ?

Sorry I wasn't clearer ... in the case of an auto, agree that owner wear items/maintenance aren't relevant to the discussion ... what if the electronic dash, for example, dies in 5 years? Unless you have an extended warranty, the manufacturer isn't obligated to repair it for free.
It's unfortunate that the logic board has failed after 5 years, however, it does happen. It's not unusual for notebook hard drives to fail in 3 to 5 years, too. You can always ask Apple if they will repair it. at no charge.
As a related aside, if you do repair your Macbook, you should have a good hard drive backup routine, assuming that your hard drive is the original one. Since notebook drive failures in the 3-5 year timeframe aren't unusual, you've gotten good life from your drive, and you want to be prepared when it does stop working.

I just recently connected my iphone to a new laptop and it deleted all the information i had on it. more importantly the CONTACTS

I have just recently bought a new laptop and the first time I connected my Iphone to it, it removed all my contacts. How do I retrieve this information????

It didn't do this by itself.
When connecting an iPhone to iTunes on a different computer than the one use for syncing the iPhone, a warning message is provided indicating the iPhone is associated with an iTunes library on another computer. You had to manually select sync contacts with a supported address book app on the new computer which is selected under the Info tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. If the supported address book app on the computer is empty - includes no contacts, you must enter one contact in the address book app on the computer for a merge prompt to be provided, which you want to select.
Sync your iPhone with iTunes on your old computer if you were syncing contacts with a supported address book app on that computer.

I have an iPhone 4 and tried to update to iOS6 but received an error message when trying to restore. The phone is no longer recognised on iTunes (using my Windows PC). I have reinstalled iTunes but this has not worked. What can I do??

I have followed the instructions on the apple support pages and still cannot get my phone to work. It continues to show the iTunes USB picture and is not recognised on my iTunes on the windows PC. When I connect the phone to my iMac it shows no data and says I can restore to factory setting. However if I do this will all my data be erased? How do I get my phone and data back? I have saved most of the photos that were on the phone but all my contact details and messages are stored and I really need to get them back! Would have limited memory on the phone when trying to update caused this problem?

Thanks. I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data. Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again.
