Where has my backup gone (from iPad to a Mac)?

I recently synced my adressbook from my MacMini to my iPad, but when the process starts it says that it will take a security copy. My internal harddrive memory started to decrease but nothing happened with the iTunes Library the iPad was synced to! This library was located on an external harddrive.
Another time recently I made a full synchronization. Since last time I synced I had downloaded some apps directly to my iPad though AppStore, but these new apps did not appear in the library I synced to. I have no idea where the copies of these apps in the iTunesMedia-folder are. Only apps from an older sync are there. So where is my backup of the latest apps? Why was my internal harddrive memory space decreasing during the security backup process? (The "new" backuped files are definitely not on my internal hard drive even if he memory space decreased.) Do anybody have any idea what happened? Or is this a serious bug in iTunes 10.1.1 which I recently downloaded. My impression is that the problem starts after installing this iTunes-version.

- The backup file is stored in a different location than your media library and there is no way to change the location of the backup file. You can find the location of the backup file here:

- Although apps usually transfer to your computer, you should try to do it manually. see:

HT1605 Where has sleep iPod gone from the timer menu?

Where has sleep iPod gone from the timer menu?

Hey, thank you very much for the clarification.
I just performed a quick test. If the iPod doesn't have any programs running it will indeed go to sleep after the "stop playing" timer ends. But if I'm playing music the "stop playing" timer will only stop playing the music when the timer ends, but will not actually put the iPod to sleep. Same goes for watching videos, the timer only stops playing the video but does not put the iPod to sleep.
The "sleep iPod" option, on the other hand, actually put the iPod to sleep when the timer ended.
The "stop playing" option only stops an app from playing media but does not put the iPod to sleep.
Why did Apple change the option from "sleep iPod" to "stop playing"?
How do I put my iPod to sleep now?
Thanks!

Where has my song gone from iTunes library

My purchased song has a ! symbol next to it and won't play - says The song “Bayini (Live)” could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it? It works on my phone and iPad but not my Mac and how do I find it - doesn't seem to exist on my Mac.

Hello Snefne,
Deleting the entry from iTunes on your Mac and redownloading it from the iTunes Store should allow the song to play.

Where has the date gone from iMovie 11 events?

In iMovie 08 the date of the event is shown in the Event Library pane, in small text underneath the name of the event. But in iMovie 11 the date isn't shown. Is there a way to show it like in iMovie 08?
This is a real pain. I've just imported a years worth of video from my camera, and split days into events. The problem is all the events have the same name (todays date). Is there a way to import video and for the events to be automatically titled with the date the video was taken?
Thanks

Hi
Sorry there has been a misunderstanding.
When importing video into iMovie one of the options is to split days into seperate events. This is what I've done and iMovie has split my movie clips into 157 seperate days, which is great. But in the left hand panel, called 'Event Library' all my 157 events have the same name which isn't great and worse in iMovie 11 the date of the event isn't displayed under the events name (in iMovie 08 it didn't matter too much that my events all had the same name, because the date of the event / clip was displayed under the events name).
My questions are:
- is it possible in iMovie 11 to display the date underneath the events name in the Event Library panel (like in iMovie 08)?
- is it possible to import video and split days into separate events and for the events to be automatically named with the date of the day they were taken?
Thanks for any help

Where has the menu gone from the top-left of the window?

In the latest Firefox (I can't tell what version, there's no Help icon or About entry anywhere I can find) the menu that used to sit in the top-left of the window has now gone. Some add-ons used to add menu entries there. Since you removed it, now I can't use those add-ons. How do I access these menu items now?

For the equivalent of the Firefox button, click the ≡ Menu Button near the top right corner of the window.
For the Help menu, click the ≡ Menu Button, then the Question Mark icon near the bottom right of the panel that opens. You can also press Alt+H to bring up the Help menu on the menu bar.
For add-on icons, right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose Customize.

Where has my itunes gone from my computer

WHERE HAS MY MUSIC GONE??

jello,
the replacement policy is very clear.
Here are some steps from reverse syncing
Use your iPod and iTunes 7
With iTunes 7 you can transfer iTunes Store purchases that are synced with your iPod to any authorized computer. Let's say from your home to your work computer. Here are the steps to "reverse sync" purchases from your iPod.
Make sure that you are using the latest version of iTunes 7 and iPod software.
Authorize your computer by choosing Authorize Computer from the Store menu in iTunes.
Attach your iPod to the computer that contains purchases.
From the File menu, choose Transfer Purchases from iPod.
You shouldn't have to hook up your iPod each time, once they've been transferred back.

Where has the backup to disk option gone in iTunes 10.4?

The option to backup your library is gone from iTunes 10.4 (or at least I cannot find it) and that was a feature I used regularly as a secondary backup solution. Where has it gone? Is there no easy way to backup your library to disc now? Is the only way to backup now with time machine?

I logged a case with iTunes support and received a call back yesterday. The agent had no clue that 10.4 did not have the backup to disk function. After i insisted that it was gone, I was put on hold, and he came back with an amazing explanation. All he could tell me is that it was because the "iCloud" would now be the way for users to backup, but at a cost of course. He was unable to give any details or point me to any refrence material on this change. in my opinion, this is an amazing change in the way apple does business. Like the US congress, they changed the rules in the shadows, and did not tell anyone they were doing it. OK, i understand that tech savy users will see this as no problem, but how about good old normal Joe who is not a techie and uses the backup to disk function as his primary backup? Joe will now have to wait for the iCloud to become mainstream, wait for instructions that do not exist today and pay for the ability to backup. Apple has gone the way of all the others now, revenue befoe the customer! This is a very shady way to change a policy and changes how i think of apple as a company. When will they come clean and tell everyone about the change, and how? Bad move Apple!

Iweb opens with a blank default page..where has my site gone?

I have been using iweb to run a web site for almost 18months. Yesterday I tried out "iwebsites" which I downloaded from apple. It suggested I can run multiple sites and a friend wants me to run one for her. Originally I was advised to set up a family pack dot mac account which would let me have more than one site . I upgraded my single user account. However I find that I can only publish with one domain name, hence the reason I looked at iwebsites. However, since trying it out I find that when I go to update my site , iwb opens a blank default page and my listing for my original site is gone. Where has it gone? I publish all to iweb & I don't think I have published to a folder.I can't find my default page at all and think I may have to redesign the site from scratch. Please help!I can still see my site if I visit it , here is the address:
http://web.mac.com/cldominic/Site/clairedominicfamilyphotography.co.uk.html
But now I want to continue building it and can access the iweb default page to build on it.
Please someone advise,
Thanks
Claire

Sorry to sound totally stupid but I think I have tried this . However I may not have done it correctly. When I enter the info what do I type? The http:// address or the name of the site. I haven't had much luck so far.

IPad has musc I lost from iTunes on my Mac. Can I rescue?

Of course I did something dumb... I lost the files from my Mac iTunes Library. I then noticed that I had the songs on my iPad. But, I cannot find a way (even searching these forums) to retrieve the music from the iPad back to my Mac. Why is this? I found software to retrieve from my iPod, but not for iPad. Am I missing something, or does Apple need to support the dumb end user better? <grin> Thanks for any help!

The music sync is one way - computer to ipad.

Where has my radio gone?

For the last weeks I had itunes Radio and was very happy with it. Today my radio has gone. The button has gone from the tool bar and I can not find it back. I now have the internet for internet radio, but that is not what I had last week. I do have an american account but am staying with the military overseas in Europe. I love listening to Mariachi music, so I am baffled as to where my radio stations have gone. Did anything change in itunes by last week?
Any insights would be greatly appreciated... I have itunes 11.1.3
I wonder if an upgrade messed it up...

Correction again, both machines have 11.1.3
I restarted my desktop and radio is back... With the stations I had before.
I am back up and running. Today is the 16th of December 2013, in case people are reading older threads about this problem.
