When you get a new computer how do I put on my iTunes library - I do have it all backed up to the cloud.  I am not a technical person so this is probably easy for someone but not me!  Any help would be much appreciated

Can anyone explain what I need to do.  I am buying a new computer, need to de-authorise my old computer and then put the library on a new windows computer.  I have my library backed up to the cloud for which I pay extra.  I am not at all technical so if anyone could give me idiot instructions I would much appreciate it.  Finding the instructions from apple assume I know basic,s and that confuses me!

  • Can you still access Adobe PDF SAVED FILES WHEN YOU GET A NEW COMPUTER

    Can you still access Adobe PDF SAVED FILES WHEN YOU GET A NEW COMPUTER ? Do you loose the files you have saved on you old computer when you get another computer?

    I may not be clear on what you are asking here but I'll try an answer anyway since that's the type of guy I am.
    If you have PDF files on your old computer, you will need to transfer them to your new computer. You can use a flash drive or CD if needed.
    But again, I think I'm not getting what you are really wanting to know. If I'm not, can you give us some more details?

    Hi there Katie,
    I just checked your account, and see that it's active. Are you trying to sign in via Adobe Reader? If so, please choose Help > Check for Updates in Reader and make sure that it-s up-to-date. The most current version, 11.0.07, should alleviate that sign-in error.

    It appears as if my startup disk has been reversed and not using the fusion ssd portion as it should.  At least its now reversed as to what it used to be originally before.  the 128gb ssd used to be on top.  Is my mac booting fusion correctly?  Thank you for responding as I was about to reformat.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    Restart / Reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Backing up, Updating and Restoring
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If you try all these Steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step... Be sure to make an appointment first...

    Yeah but I can't upload them because there not on the phone?
    Is that a question?
    Photo stream pictures can be viewed only on the devices they were sent to.  You can't transfer them back to your phone (or anywhere else).  If you didn't back up or import the photos to a computer, and they are no longer on your phone, they're gone.

  • I used to be able to download files from the Harddrive of my Sony Handycam, but now it won't let me import them while going through "log and transfer."  I have tried to update my settings, but this doesn't seem to work.  Any help would be much appreciated

    Hard Drive:  The Hard Drive is on my camera (Sony Handycam)
    Just needed some info on what is going on with your particular system.
    Knowing the exact camera model will also assist us.
    If this camera is standard AVCHD you should be able to connect with USB to Mac with FCE open and use Log and Transfer without all the fiddling around converting etc.
    What FCE does during ingest is convert files to AIC. (Apple Intermediate Codec)
    FCE cannot read the individual files in the BDMV folder, that's why all the converting is required when you use that method.
    BTW: regards formatting drives/cards/memory on cameras; it is wise to use the actual device to format rather than a computer. This is a prime cause of read/write goof ups with solid state media. This applies to still or video cameras.
    Keeping the COMPLETE card/memory structure in tact is vital for successful transfers.

  • I have deleted photos from iPhoto trash but apparently still have 82GB of photos which I cannot see or delete - any help would be much appreciated

    I have deleted photos from iPhoto trash but apparently still have 82GB of photos which I cannot see or delete - any help would be much appreciated

    check the overall trash on the 'dock'.when files are deleted from programmes, they always go to the general 'Trash'  as general files and you will need to delete form there as well. if there is still a lot of missing files taking up space try reloading or deleting 'Iphoto' and uploading again.

  • How can you keep your songs when you get a new computer?

    is it possible to bring music from your old computer to your new one? because i just bought a new mac and i want to get rid of the old one, but i have all my music on there and it would take forever to get it all on by CD and by buying on iTunes.

    Any chance you have an iPod? ...

    If not, then how about an external hard drive? They are very cheap these days and well worth it for backing up your iTunes and your Mac. You can buy or put together models that are, for example, in the 160-250GB range for under $100 easily.

  • I need help showing a users e-mail when they log in. Any help would be much appreciated!

    Hi,
    Now that I am able to show someones username after they login using the code below, how in the world do I get a page to show their e-mail. For example when they go to change their e-mail address in the settings in says next to the form "Your current e-mail is set as ..." how do I get it to show?
    Username code:
    <?php echo $_SESSION['MM_Username']; ?>
    Is it at all similar to this?
    Thank you for any help.

    You are talking about setting the binding for the session variable. That does not create the session variable, just the binding for it. Take a look here to see how to create a session variable. Once the session variable is set you can set the binding for it by the session variable name and then place binding onto page to show dynamic info for logged in user.  For php to add a session from linked tutorial add code similar to this adding info = to $sessFirstName where appropriate. You can add the session variable onto the page that your users login form is located on. Just add a registered session line and another line to define the newly-registered session variable.
    <?php
    session_start();
    session_register("sessFirstName");
    $sessFirstName = $XXXXXXXXXXXX;
    ?>

  • I'm running Firefox 3.6.10 on Windows 7. For several days now I cannot access the "Add-ons" in the Tools menu. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Charles

    Every time I try to access Add-ons, Firefox freezes and I get an "unresponsive script" warning that states, "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding . . ." The script in question is nsExtensionManager.js:623. I reinstalled Firefox, but that didn't help.
    Thanks, Charles

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    This issue can be caused by the Personas 1.6.0 extension. If you have it then update to Personas 1.6.1

  • Audio input is gone. What plug/adapter do I need to plug in a rode mic for fcpx voice overs? Any help will be much appreciated.

    Hi,
    First time user.... Bare with me.
    My old imac had an audio input and I could simply plug in my rode mic and perform voice overs etc.... Now the new imac has no audio input.
    I gather I need an adapter, but am I really stuck buying the iRig Pro at $219? Will this even work for voice overs in FCPX or is there a much cheaper and cheerful option for this problem that apple could have avoided in the first place...
    Any advice will be welcomed and appreciated.

    Thanks Very much A Brody!
    None of the research I did came up with this option. Really appreciate it.
