Recoverying Movies purchased in itunes
 

so my DELL laptop crashed a few days ago and my computer guy said it's impossible to recover any data from the HD. Does this mean all my movies, shows and music i purchased in itunes is lost and i wasted my money? shouldn't there be an order history in itunes and you should be able to get it again?

I'm sure this will get moved to the proper forum soon.

Until then, I offer this solution. E-mail Itunes support and explain that you lost everything due to a HD failure. Depending on what mood they are in, they're usually cool with letting people re-download everything once.

depending on how the hard drive crashed... if the op system is just corrupt and the hard drive disk is spinning, sometimes you can get the data off of the hard drive by using Norton Ghost...

Yeah my computer guy confirmed that nothing could be pulled off the harddrive. I will have to get intouch with itunes to see if i can' get my music back.

thanks

Oh i could just rip my ipod back onto my new computer. Does anyone know of any good (FREE) ipod ripping programs?

thanks
