This is just one of the many things I love about the jmdl. There is always someone who can help! What I particularly liked was the suggestions from a few of you who said to wait until the next day. That is SO true. It's always good to sleep on it, because today's monumental problem isn't that big of a deal once you've slept on it. To which I would add, a cup of tea always helps! >________________________________ > From: ron g >To: Cassy ; JMDL >Sent: Saturday, January 12, 2013 4:23:49 PM >Subject: Re: Oh my! > >i spoke to a couple of it type people > >- the i tunes installation issue can probably be resolved by a bit of registery tweaking (the registery is where windows keeps a track of all installed software etc. - a failed upgrade can leave conflicting entries which creates the uninstall / reinstall issues) > >- there is a good probablity that use of a recovery program CCleaner would clean your registery to the point you will be able to re-install i-tunes > >http://download.cnet.com/CCleaner/3000-18512_4-10315544.html > >- a file recovery program should be able to recover most of your data, either from the portable hard drive, or from the hard drive where the music was before you moved it to the external drive. easeus seems to be the recomnded free data recovery software: > >http://download.cnet.com/Easeus-Data-Recovery-Wizard-Free-Edition/3000-2248_4-75184619.html > >- everyone recomended that you try & find yourself a computer type person to do the recovery for you. if you go to a data recovery lab you will have to pay a littlle, but the chances of recovery are way improved over diy... > > >regards > > >ron ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 12 Jan 2013 18:42:57 +0000 From: "Reimers, Gay" Subject: Re: onlyJMDL Digest V2013 #13 I have to get that comic with the Joni mention.

A couple is walking through a cemetery and on one of the grave stones is the text, "Seeing Life From Both Sides Now." The woman says to the man, "I'm guessing a big Joni Mitchell fan."

My advice (for what it's worth) is not to do anything at all today, then tomorrow take the HD to a professional, who will charge you a lot and maybe maybe retrieve your music. But most of all, don't do anything while you're panicked. djp On 11/01/13 14:3759, Catherine McKay wrote: > I wish I could help with that, but I'm hopeless at that stuff.

There is a BSN cover that I actually LIKE! The one by the Montreal Jazz Club. AND a nice cover of "Black Crow." I haven't heard them all yet.
