[Solved]Oops, I accidentally deleted the "Beginner's Guide" wiki page.

My apologies, I am trying to fix my mistake right now, but if someone could help me out, the sooner the better.  I accidentally deleted the Beginner's Guide wiki page, trying to add my own edit.  Will post back when I get it back to the last revision.

It seems like everybody and their hot sister heard of this Beranger person except me
Update: can't say I checked any of his older posts but I guess I've seen part of his 'dumping linux' blog post -- most likely the one that 'angried' people and said sisters. I can only ask myself: what the big deal is? Who actually cares? Personally I never understood blogs nor the need to have them .. but it was my opinion that these unfortunate inventions were supposed to be destined for your friends (+sisters) to read. So I can't understand this: why does anybody else in the world -- care -- about what that guy uses/doesn't use? What makes him so important / such a(n) hero.

  • Printing the Beginner's Guide

    Hello,
    Maybe I did something wrong?  I wanted to print the "Beginner's Guide Wiki" for reference.  Using FF3 (from a different machine), I clicked on the "Printable Version" link, and proceeded to print.  The regular text of the Wiki printed fine.  However, the boxes (outlined in dashes) that contain the commands to enter did not print.  I just have blank spaces where the command line text should be.  One of the main reasons that I wanted to print the wiki was to have this information readily available whilst installing and configuring Arch.  Now I have a large stack of paper with a lot of important information missing.  Any ideas what went wrong?

    For what its worth, I finally figured it out.  If I select individual pages or ranges of pages to print in the FF print dialog, I have the above-mentioned issues.  If I print the whole document, on the other hand, everything is fine.   Strange huh?

  • HELP!  I saved a document.  Copied the document.  Went to delete some extra characters.  Accidentally deleted the entire document.  Now I can't find my document.  When I open the saved document, the page is blank.  Does Pages save copied text anywhere?

    I saved a document.  Copied the document.  Went to delete some extra characters and accidentally deleted the text of the entire document.  I did not save a blank page.  I cannot recover the lost text.  Please Help.  I'm NEW to Pages. 

    Hi Jan,
    Copied text (or other copied material) is on the Clipboard, but only until you copy something else or log out of your account. If you act before doing another copy, you can paste the copied material back into the document. If you don't act right away, you may still have a path back.
    One of the most useful keystroke combinations on the Mac is the "Oops! key," as a friend of mine once named it. That's command-Z, also known as "Undo". In some applications it will let you undo only a single step, but in others, including Pages, you can do repeated undos, so it's not quite so essential that you act immediately on making an error. Undo, done via the Oops! key, or via the Edit menu takes you back one change at a time. You can't skip any steps, so to get back to the state before the accidental deletion, you'll have to undo any work you've done since then. The memory of what to Undo disappears when you close the document or quit the application.
    At that point you're at the mercy of your backup plan. If you've had Time Machine running, you'll be able to enter Time Machine and go back to an earlier, saved version of the file.
    All these are in addition to the steps Ian suggested above.
    Regards,
    Barry
    PS: Best piece of advice I can give a new Pages user (beyond Backup early and often) is to download and read through the first few chapters of the Pages '09 User Guide, available through the Help menu in Pages '09. Mostly pretty easy reading, and will get you through the basics without much trouble.

  • I accidentally deleted the documents folder from my hard drive. can I recover it?

    I accidentally deleted the documents folder (and its contents) from my ibook hard drive. Can I recover it?

    It takes a really expensive data recovery service to get back things that have been deleted.
    You could try Data Rescue 3, if you're desperate to get the documents back.
    http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php
    System Requirements:
    http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue_sysreq.php
    If you want to try this, stop using the iBook immediately, and wait until you get the recovery software because every time you save something to your hard drive (even if it's only a link in your browser history), you risk overwriting the files you deleted.

    You click on the hard disk in the Finder's sidebar and drag it back from there. In recent Mac OS X versions, you can also drag it there directly from the sidebar.

  • I accidentally deleted the SD version of a movie, and now neither version is showing up in my purchases?

    Earlier, I downloaded Les Miserables from iTunes. I stored the HD version in the cloud, but my little sister got on my computer and accidentally deleted the SD (that i was getting for my phone). When i went back to the iTunes store, it didn't show up in my purchases. I am currently re-downloading the HD version, but is there any way to get the SD version back? I really want to watch it on a plane ride i have coming up and i dont have the money to buy it again!

    If you previously purchased the movie, contact the iTunes store about regranting the download.

  • HELP! I Accidentally deleted the iTunes folder in the My Music folder

    HELP! I Accidentally deleted the iTunes folder in the My Music folder so I lost the two files
    iTunes Library.itl
    iTunes Music Library.xml
    As I understand it, these files contain all the play counts, ratings, etc. and I've spent weeks getting this info the way I want it and don't want to lose it.
    I have all my mp3 files on my desktop computer HD under a seperate directories, so I'm not worried about loosig origninal music files. I don't have iTunes copying the files when I add them to the library and I do have "Keep iTunes Music folder organized" checked. I have not relocated any of the original music files.
    I have not auto synced my iPod, and I can open the iPod in iTunes and all my songs, with play counts, ratings, etc. are there. I just want to get the playlists, play counts. ratings, catagories, etc. back to my PC.
    Is there any way to get the playlists, play counts. ratings, catagories, etc. from the data on the iPod and recreate the .itl & .xml files on my PC? I see there are many files on the iPod two of which look promising "iTunesDB" & "iTunesPlaylists".
    Can someone please tell my how to recreate just the .itl & .xml files by using the info on the iPod itself? Again, I have not relocated or lost any of the original music files, I just want to get the playlists, play counts. ratings, catagories, etc. back that are stored in the .itl file.
    I really don't want to have a software utility copy the info over as then I will have two copies of my music files and I've spent a lot of time organizing and naming the mp3 files just the way I want (not the way iTunes wants).
    I've read many posts and it seems many have screwed up recovery by trying things without clear direction.
    Thanks for the help in advance.

    Try some of the more robust recovery/trnsfer programs. Several can recover the playlists, and metadata of the songs on the iPod. Do some reading on the respective websites.
    These links will give you several methods of recovering whatever songs remain on your iPod; some free, some third-party software, some more comprehensive for restoring Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, etc. Read them and their associated links before deciding on a strategy that works for you. There are many various third-party software programs that will offer a more robust process, or an easier GUI. Do a Google search for them if the links below leave you wanting…

    Senuti (Mac OS X v10.3 or higher Recovery Utility)
    XPlay (Software For Music Recovery &/or Cross-Platform Functionality)
    XPlay Photo Browser (For recovering Photos)
    After recovering your song files, strongly consider developing a thorough backup strategy for just this type of situation.
    You need at least two full sets of your music, not including what is on the iPod:
    -- One full set on the PC within iTunes (on internal HD or ExHD)
    -- One full set on an separate external backup medium (CD/DVD/ExHD/other)
    -- One (full or partial) set on the iPod
    Music files on just the iPod and only one other medium is not considered having any backup.
    If you cannot store your complete music files on the computer’s internal HD, then create and maintain at least two external sets (any multiple combinations of ExHDs, DVDs, CDs).
    Backup both the music files and the Library database file (iTunes Library.itl). What are the iTunes Library files?

    Another way is to open your Time Machine back up or clone (if you have one) and copy the App Store app from the /Applications to your Macintosh HD's /Application folder.
    Right click on the Time Machine icon in the Menu Bar.
    Select Enter Time Machine; then navigate to a date you know it was still there and copy if from the /Applications folder.
