I had to reinstall thunderbird and now I have lost all previous information.
I have lost all emails in my inbox. sent box and all folders on Thunderbird . Can anyone help? Many Thanks. starter
Perhaps Thunderbird just is not looking in the correct place.
Make hidden folders visible.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
In Thunderbird
* Help > Troubleshooting Information
* click on 'Show folder' button
* a new window opens showing Profile folder.
You need to check two things.
'''1. Are there two Profiles?'''
see image:
In my case, when I click on the 'Profiles' directory, it shows I have one Profile called xxxxxx.default and I am open on that profile.
If you have two profiles, select the other profile
or
If there is only one Profile:
click on 'Mail' folder (if you had a pop mail account) or 'IMAPMail' folder if it was an Imap mail account.
'''2.How many mail accounts are there? '''
You should see Local folders plus others.
click on a mail account name to see folder names.
Do you see a mail account which has all the correct folder names.
You can check to see if a file (not .msf) has emails.
Right click file and choose to open with 'Notepad'.
When you locate the mail account which has the emails, make a note of the Profile name and the mail account name.
Close the window.
In Thunderbird
* Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account
bottom right look for 'Local directory'...see image.
click on 'Browse' and navigate to the correct Profile and mail account name and click on Open.
It should be some thing like this:
* C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\Mail\mail account name
then click on ok to save changes.
close and reopen Thunderbird.

I had to restore my ipod touch when doing an update and now I have lost all my games. Is there a way to get them back?
Restore from backup
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

I recently did an update to my iphone 4s and now I have lost all my custom ringtones as well as some music I had loaded. I did a restore and backup but nothing changes. What have I done wrong?
Hello Chance1985,
Sorry for your wait. Okay so let's try re-connecting with iTunes on your computer and syncing your device. This may give you all your stuff back. Sync in Music tab.

i had a problem with my iphone and had to restore and now i have lost all music from itunes any way to get it back ?
It should ne in itunes on your computer and included in your regular backup of your computer.
If for some reason you have failed to backup your music, then - in the U.S only - you can get previous itunes purchases from the beta version of icloud. Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick Links. -
I have an iPhone 4 and plugged it into itunes on my computer for the first time. Only to discover my sister has obviously plugged hers into my itunes account and now I have lost all my photos and numbers. Please help me!!
It can't do that by itself. You had to click through several prompts telling it to restore it from a backup of an old phone for that to happen.
If the phone was not backed up to iCloud before this happened, or to another computer, then the data is gone. There is no way to recover it. -

Big Mistake, I upgraded to OS X Mavericks this morning and now I have lost all my e-mail folders where I was saving important e-mails. I did a mailbox rebuild and it did not bring them back. Should not have upgraded?
I do not remember what version of OS it was. I have carbonite back up but I am not sure it backed up my e-mail.

I just backed my iPhone up and now I have lost all of my recent info. How can I get it back to how it used to be
Did you fail to import your photos before updating? If so, then they are likely gone. You can try restoring from backup. If that fails then they are gone. You should regularly import photos to your computer, most especially before any update.
Did you fail to transfer any purchases on iphone ( that were not on your computer) to your computer before updating? If so, then you will have to redownload:

Husband updated my iphone 4 to iOS 5 and now I have nothing, no contacts, no calendar, no photos, no texts , How do I get them back? I am lost without them. Feel like my phone is now just a phone.
The same thing happened with me. I was updating my husband's iPhone 3GS to iOS 5, and it lost his calendars and contacts. When I did the update, I let it do a sync and backup first.
Since that time, I tried to do a restore, and it only saw a back up from October, 2010. Where are backups stored? Are they invisible files on the mac? His laptop is a 13" macbook running 10.6.8. -
I tried to sync my phone for the first time and somehow it restored and i lost all my data. Help!
If you don't have a backup made by iTunes, your data and settings are gone.
Apps and other media can be downloaded again for free:

Is there some way to get around this

All of my settings have changed at the top of my page since I up-graded to Mozilla 4.0. How do i recover everything? Even my hot-mail and bookmark bars are gone. Help
Ok this is bizzare!
Thank you for your response, I went throught each and every step without any luck, even got the recovery programme, and painstakingly tried to sift through all that mumbojumbo to find what i needed. finally found the bookmark bit, but it had been fully overwritten :(, so on reading about previous ff versions, found the sqlite thingys, and they were relatively unscathed(partly written over, but saveable apparently TG), saved them to adiff drive, amongst other possibly good folders. Then looked up how to install them, and it said to close FF, and install to profile folder.
So i tried to close FF, and the original problem from a few days ago, where it asked me if 'i was sure i wanted to close this window as it has X tabs open', popped up again. This is where 'open blank page' selection was set, over 'open previous tabs'. Wanting to save that info on how to sort out these friggin files, I reset the Option to 'open previous tabs', and closed FF. After unsucessfully searching for the profile folder on my laptop, i opened FF intending to search online for where i could find said folder.
AND BANG, surprise surprise, the FF I had just closed with only tabs open about finding out what the heck to do, had disappeared, and instead my original saved tabs were up, and my bookmarks are there..... I am gobsmacked! what the heck just happened there???
I have made 3 back up in different folders now, of those friggin bookmarks. I am weary now tho of shutting it all down.... what if its back to the other pages I had with no bookmarks, tomorrow :( -
i was just playing my smurfs game, and the screen went blank, turned on after about 10 seconds, and had reset the game. i tryed re syncing it to get all my old game data back, and it didnt work. i have spent alot of money and time on this game, and i dunno what the **** to do ! its really upset me, iv never had this happen before! PLEASE HELP!!
i reset the iPhone and then re synced it to my computer, i guess i was lucky in the fact that i back all my game data up to the game centre..
@sachin411 did you try resyncing the iPhone/iPod before you backed it up? make sure you back up your iProduct every few days, as i have learnt you can loose A LOT of stuff if you dont!!
