When setting up my new iphone I had to skip the "Restore from icloud backup" stage because it would not connect. How do I now get back to this so I can restore from a previous iphone?

Accidentally pressing the "fn" key and spacebar simultaneously erased my entire document. How do I get back everything that I wrote?

Hi! I just got my first Macbook, after years of having PCs crash on me all the time. I'm very excited and very satisfied with it so far. However, as I was writing a very important email, I accidentally pressed the "fn" key and the space bar at the same time, and everything I wrote got deleted. It was almost 2 pages! Is there any way I can get back everything that I wrote? Thank you.

Here's a link to some of them http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1343

2 minutes ago I was on a page in the community that had content 2 seconds ago, 1 minute ago etc. Now I can't find it. I see 1 hour ago, 4 hours ago... How do I get back to that page.

Hi Terry,
2 minutes ago I was on a page in the community that had content 2 seconds ago, 1 minute ago etc. Now I can't find it. I see 1 hour ago, 4 hours ago... How do I get back to that page.
When you say "2 minutes ago" was that literally 2 minutes ago, or did the page stay idle for some time? The page does not automatically update and continues to show the times of posts when last opened. If you leave the page and return to it, it will then update (reload) with new elapsed times.
Questions and replies come thick and fast. Perhaps the thread has been pushed down the page by newer posts. It could have been pushed to another page. Click on the Next button (top and bottom of page). "Next" is actually older posts (they are stored in descending time order).
Have you followed suggestions by b j t and ~Bee?

I had an Apple ID under an old email address that I have now changed, but the old address still shows up in my iCloud account since I installed Yosemite. How do I get rid of that old account altogether?

You cannot merge accounts.
You need to sign into the old account on your computer.

I partitioned a small drive for a windows program, and now the computer only wants to boot to Windows. How do I get back to Mac so I can have a choice of drives?

That doesn't sound good. It sounds like the power outage might have corrupted the partition for OS X. I would suggest booting from the Install DVD that came with your Mac while holding down the C key. Once you have selected the language start up Disk Utility from the pull down menu and repair the disk. Once you have done that then repair permissions also.

There is no legitimate (Apple supported) way to downgrad an iOS on a device. Have you tried downloading/installing a new (free) app. That works for many users with that problem.

The desktop image on my mac shows its file name. How do I get rid of that?

After I installed Earth 3D screen saver, the images shown as my desktop background are now showing a large tag with the filename, path included, of the image. How do I get rid of that tag?
Thank you!

Judging from the pic in your original post, you have quite a few files on your desktop. Suggest that you limit the amt of files on your desktop or keep them in your Dock or put all inside of folders. I did notice a few Safari files. You can even hide your HD if you want.
To hide the HD: Finder>General>Show these items on the desktop. Uncheck Hard disc.
After doing the above, try the following: Trash the finder plist file which is located: Option>Finder>Go>Library>Preferences. Repair permissions and restart the computer. Please post back the results.
Can you post the website link of the desktop pics for others to check?

My bookmarks in the left hand column are gone and default is at top how do I get back to what it was

started firefox as normal bookmarks on the left are gone how do I get them back

Using System Restore can cause your Firefox installation to get corrupted because only white-listed files are restored, so always be cautious with using System Restore.
*You may lose data in the Firefox profile folder like .js and .ini files
*You may need to reinstall affected software
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
*Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

When i try to play Music or a video the volume comes up with full bars and a stop sign, how do i get back my volume?

The way that usually works best is to move the entire iTunes folder folder from the current location to X:\iTunes where X: is the letter of the external drive.
If you moved the iTunes Media folder "by hand" instead of using iTunes to relocate the media folder then:
Move the main iTunes folder to X:\iTunes
Move iTunes Media inside it as X:\iTunes\iTunes Media
Press and hold down the shift key as you click the icon to start iTunes
Keep holding until asked to choose or create a library.
(If iTunes opens normally/with an empty library close it and go back to step 3)
Click choose and open X:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl.
If you still have a problem try my script FindTracks.

How do i export a book that was set in pdf to kindle?I get a box that says i can not export the pdf file

Do you happen to have Dial Assist on? This is in Settings>Phone. This is what helps the phone identify international numbers when dialing, based on location. See if turning that off/on makes a difference. Unless you are making a number of international calls, I believe this can be left off. See the User Guide http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf Page 49 has info regarding Dial Assist.

Now that I've upgraded to Lion, about 50% of the time when I click the mouse it acts as if I've right clicked. How do I get back to the way it was?!

I am working on two macbooks and an imac. I upgraded all the software last weekend and am now running all three computers on Lion. Over the last week, about 50% of the time when I click the mouse (whether it be the "pad" mouse on the macbooks or the standard mouse on my imac) it acts as thought I've right-clicked. How do I stop this insanity?! I want my old no-right-click mouses back!
Thank you for any guidance!

Try this,
Go to to the Trackpad System Preference and look at the Point and Click tab.
Uncheck the box that says "Tap to Click"
I found my track pad to be way too sensitive and I was finding myself in web pages I did not choose to go to. Unchecking that box will make it so you have to press the track pad to make it click something as opposed to just tapping it. It is more effort but also less sensitive to random taps.
