So I tried to back up my computer. I’m told this is a good thing to do but it seems to cause me as many problems as it solves. Bugger.
So this time the problem is that my itunes library seems to be on the external hard drive but it’s entirely gone from my computer and I can’t figure out how to put it back.
Does anyone have any advice?
I’ve had the same problem with my external hard drive. Go to the drive manufacturer’s website and follow the directions there; that usually works. Mine’s now completely given up the ghost — I can’t get it reinstalled at all — so I recommend at least occasional offsite backups using Mozy or a similar service.
This is my flippin offsite backup.
I hate computers.
No — I mean offsite, as in not in your house, on your block or in your neighborhood. Costs a few bucks a month, happens automatically while you sleep, worth every penny. Go to mozy.com and see what I mean.
