Accidentally deleted an email, now can't find it anywhere

On my iPad 2, using Mail to access my gmail account, I accidentally deleted a message. Went to the "deleted messages" folder to get it back, and it wasn't there. Looked for it Mail on my iMac and directly in GMail using Safari, and couldn't find it in either place. It appears to be really gone. This can't be right; I've never heard of a program that doesn't give you a "second chance" to retrieve something that has been deleted.

..... Unless you have the email settings configured that way in your web mail account or on the iPad.
I know nothing about Gmail, but if it is IMAP - whatever you do on one device is synced across devices. If you delete it on the iPad then it is deleted everywhere. However, I would think that it would go to the Trash folder.
With my POP account in the settings under Advanced - there is a setting to delete from the server when it is removed from the inbox. Do you have your gmail account set up that way?

Thanks Niel, but I don't really know what you mean. Sorry, but if you can, would you mind adding more detail? I'm really thankful for your help though!

HT201306 i downloaded an itunes audio book and now can't find it anywhere...where did it go?

I downloaded an itunes audio book and now can't find it anywhere...not in iTunes, not in iBooks...where did it go?

I had similar troubles on my iPhone 5 (iOS 7) with some audiobooks. Tried redownloading, reported problems, etc. nothing worked. Even more confusing, I could 'see' it in the On This IPhone in iTunes, but couldn't even see the audiobooks button in iTunes (on the phone).
I ended up searching for it by name, from my iPhone home screen (by swiping down, it may be called spotlight?), and where it reads 'Search this iPhone', I just started typing the name of the book, and there it was.
Not the most elegant solution, but so far all three of the books that I've bought are there.

I had photoshop accidentally deleted it and now can't reinstall it

I had photoshop and a bunch of other programs tried to free up memory. Got another external hard drive and now ca't reinstall it. Keeps taking me back to the download page and when I hit download nothing happens.

WIthout proper system info and other technical details like what version of PS you are trying to install or what browser you use to download nobody can even begin to guess.

Chgd computers, now can't find the long, long list of streaming radio stations! I had no app before but now says "there is no app to open"

On my old computer (last week) I'd been pulling up a long list of free streaming radio stations. Now can't find it anywhere from ITunes. When I click on "Radio" it says "There is no app chosen for this". I didn't need an app before, but evidently I need one now. There are several apps. Can anyone tell me which I should choose - Pandora, IHeartRadio, TuneIn or what?
I much appreciate any and all help. Thanks in advance!

This indicates you had a bad install. You need to completely remove Office and reinstall using your new CD Key. See instructions here. Do not do the simple remove, Use the COMPLETELY REMOVE ALL FILES steps.
http://www.officeformachelp.com/2012/12/office-for-mac-2011-remove-office/
so I purchased a new Mincrosoft Office 2011 Student/Home Pin to install Microsoft Office.
You don't purchase a PIN. A PIN is generated when you install Office. You need a CD Key. If you bought Office365, you activate online.
I have issues with the Microsoft User Data - are there supposed to be two? and where exactly do they belon. They are in the Documents file at the moment.
Unless you used Outlook or Entourage you can delete both Microsoft User Data folders. When you install Office it will create a new one. Only Outlook & Entourage used this folder for data. W,E,P stores it's data in the User's Library/Application Support/Microsoft folder now.

Updated Apple ID email and now can't find my older iCloud backups.

I recently changed my email address and now can't find my older iCloud backups. Surely they are still there, aren't they? Any ideas how to locate them? I am missing some important data I need to restore.

Hi El Boz,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you simply changed the information or email address associated with your Apple ID (as opposed to creating an entirely new Apple ID), you may find the following article helpful:

HT201317 just backed up my iphone to the icloud and updated my software. I clicked on "delete once downloaded" but now can not find the pictures -- 470 of them. How can I access them?

How can i access all my photos after backing up my iphone to the icloud? I clicked on "delete once downloaded" but now can not find them.

You can import your camera roll to your computer using your usb cable as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
If you're upgrading your phone, I would recommend that you backup your old phone to your computer using iTunes. Restoring an iTunes backup to your new phone will be much faster than restoring an iCloud backup, and possibly more reliable too.
To back it up to iTunes, connect it to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, then go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now. The go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.
When setting up your new phone, when given the option, choose Restore from iTunes Backup and restore this backup to your new phone. It will include your camera roll and other data; restoring the backup will will also sync your apps and other iTunes media from your iTunes library to your new phone.

Files Renamed when importing to LR4 and now can't find them in LR3

Help! What should I do???
Yesterday I installed LR 4 Beta. I had a folder with 300 images in it on LR 3, obviously all files had names. I imported these photos into LR4 to work with LR4 and they were renamed in the process. Now in my LR3 folder, all the files still have there old names and the "missing photo ?" and I assume that's because the name has been changed and LR3 can't find them. Any thoughts on an easy fix?
Thanks,
Matthew Kraus

Thanks so much for helping me with this.
I must admit, I didn't pay too much attention when importing this "test"
group of photos to LR4, therein lies my problem. Now that I look at the
import settings that were used:
1. Files were not added or copied, they were "moved" to a new location and
also renamed.
2. Files were renamed starting with "264" using my regular import template.
Listed below are the first 10 photos with their original LR3 and he
changed LR4 names.

I have a back up of my images on an EHD from several days ago which has the
original file names, but this backup only has 203 of the 268 images I
imported yesterday and are renamed.

Copied files to USB HDD - now can't find them!

I had to reinstall my wife's macbook so I backed up all her files to a USB HDD formatted as MS-DOS (FAT) [according to disk utility]
I then reinstalled and tried to find the files which do not show up on the USB HDD (shoulda checked!)
I've seen posts alluding to having the drive formatted Journalised but they all refer to having done that FIRST.
Are my files history? Is there any way to get them back? Help!

Can't get game to play so deleted it. now can't reinstall. says it is installed

can't get game to play so deleted it. now can't reinstall. says it is installed

If you type in its name on the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right) does that find it ?
If it doesn't then have you tried a reset to see if the game then shows on the iPad's homescreen, or as not installed in the App Store app, after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
