Type move itunes library into the google serach bar.
It has always been very basic to always maintain abackup copy of your computer. Do you not have a backup copy?

HT4994 i did the recent upgrade for my iphone 4s (ios6) and lost all my contacts. How do I get them back? They are stored on my pc on microsoft outlook

I did the ios6 upgrade on my iphone 4s and lost all my contacts. Can I get them back? They are stored on my pc on microsoft outlook. thanks

Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
If it backed up to my laptop, that died and I just got the new computer. The one that's crashed won't even boot, so there's no way to even tell if it was syncing the contacts along with all the phone photos. Literally happened at the same time - it was because I had the new computer that I was finally able to pull the photos off the phone and make room for the upgrade. It had refused to upgrade for lack of space for some time.
I had thought it was set to sync to iCloud but it vanished from BOTH my phone and the cloud. That's why I'm so angry about it.

When I updated my macbook Pro to Maverick, I lost I Photo. How do I get it back to manage my pics?

When I updated my Macbook Pro to Maverick, I lost I Photo. It seems as if my pics are still on the laptop, but I have a really hard time finding them. I no longer have I Photo. Can anyone help me in getting that application back and putting my pics back in it? I loved the faces feature. Thank you!

Run the >software update>iPhoto
If you have a legit copy of of iPhoto you are eligable for the Mavericks compatible version. Look for it in your applications folder along side the older versions.
If not purchase it on the AppStore to regain access to your iphoto library as you knew it.

I have stored everything on my Macbook pro in a external hard drive (Time Machine) Now that we have "wiped the machine" I am told I can start it over and load ontent--apps, docs, etc from the hard drive, just plug it in, find the time machine and what?

I need to know what to highligh, what to click on.

hirogliffix,
take a look at this Apple page — in particular, the “Restoring data from Time Machine backups” section and its “Restoring your entire system from a backup” subsection.

I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R but will not play on my MacBook Pro. I have already recorded multiple DVDs. How can I get it to play on my Mac?

I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R but will not play on my MacBook Pro. I have already recorded multiple DVDs. How can I get it to play on my Mac?

"I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R"
How? Using what equipment/software?
"The DVD plays on the device on which it was recorded."
Just a guess: You're using a VCR-DVD combo recorder. DVDs produced in this way will play on the device that made them, but won't play on anything else until they're "finalized." In fact, Macs will recognize unfinalized DVDs as blank discs until the discs are finalized. Check the manual that came with the recording device for instructions.

How can I back up all of my macbook pro data to my USB if time machine is not functioning properly?

I attempted to back up my data from my macbook pro to my USB entirely through time machine. The first half hour was successful until It told me the backup was not able to happen and it completely stopped working from that point on. Is there any suggestions or other things I can do? I do not mind reformatting the USB or erasing everything from it, but I am not sure how to do that on the mac either.
Thanks again

make sure time machine is turned off in system preferences. (it won't let you erase the disk if time machine is still trying to access it)
open the disk utility from in your user account utilities, make sure you are in the erase tab and also make sure you have the whole HD selected (not the section for backups that may be indented under it) also make sure the disk is mounted (there is option at the top of the disk utility toolbar to mount the disk if necessary.
once you have done both of these, make sure that next to format it says mac OS extended journaled and then click the button that just says erase.
after it's done you should then be able to go into system prefs and turn the time machine back on and select the disk to start the backups again.
if it still won't let you erase or do anything w/ the external drive after these steps there may be issue w/ the HD itself that needs addressed

I just updated photos on Yosemite and now iPhoto is gone. How can I get it back?

I just updated photos on Yosemite and now iPhoto is gone. How can I get it back?

What were you running before you updated? 10.10.2, or an earlier version of OS X (10.9 or earlier)?
If 10.10.2, then iPhoto should still be on your machine. If not, then go to the App Store, purchased tab, and look for iPhoto, and download it (you'll need iPhoto 9.6.1 to run on Yosemite).
If you never installed iPhoto from the Mac App Store, then you should contact AppleCare, who can probably help you out. That's the only option in this case; upgrading from 10.9 or earlier straight to 10.10.3 is a bad incidence of timing.

Drag the Safari icon straight up and off the Dock so it goes, "poof" ...
Now click and hold the Safari app in the Applications folder and drag that to the Dock.
See if you can open a webpage in Safari.

I had my computer worked on. When I got it back I had to reinstall itunes. When I synced my iphone, I lost all my contacts. How do I get them back?

I had my computer worked on recently. When I got it back, I had to reinstall itunes. I synced my iphone and lost all my contacts. How do I get them back?

Synch your contacts back from whichever program on your computer you've stored them in (Outlook, Address Book) or from your cloud service.
Not using your phone as indended and didn't have your contacts on your computer or with a cloud service? Then they're gone.

you are responsible for reinstalling any apps. It is not Apples responsibility as outline the the service agreement. Do you have the product key?

If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    1.    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    2.    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    3.    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    4.    Open iTunes.
    5.    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

Retina Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion freezes with Time Machine

I have a new MBP Retina, it crashes more than any other mac I've owned in the past 18 years! If it turn Time Machine off, it becomes much more stable, but I now dont have a back up (I kept getting the 'sparse bundle in use already" error so I wiped my time machine a,d reset everything).
Ive done a clean reinstall, zapped PRAM, reset all system settings, and it still wont run unless time machine is turned off. Is this a common issue and can we expect a fix soon?

screen freezes, no keys or mouse work, have to hard restart .
happens during a host of different activities with different software open, during back ups, installing other programmes etc. screen wouldnt work when it had gone to sleep. I only turned time machine off because i couldnt get the mac running for long enough to do a back up, then hey presto, it hasnt crashed since!

I just upgraded my iPhone4 iOs and lost ALL Phone Contacts! How can I get them back?

HELP! I've been using my iPhone consistently for ALL phone numbers, since I have serious memory problems due to fibromyalgia. I upgraded my phone last night finally, having moved my photos out of it I had the space to download and install the upgrade.
I got a nasty shock this morning when I tried to make a routine call and found ALL of my phone contacts missing. They don't seem to be either in the cloud or in the phone. What happened? It said it was storing them in the cloud but they're all gone! How can I get them back?
IF this normally happens, why should I ever upgrade? Seriously! I didn't think to copy all of it out manually before upgrading, I'd upgraded once before without any problems. Addresses and other details gone too. I've got four numbers in "Favorites" but no context for them beyond location by state. I don't even know who they are - can't recognize just the numbers.

Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
