All data lost between 13/11/07 and 17/07/08

When i rebooted my iMac this morning, all my data (emails, received faxes in Pagesender,…) are gone !!
Is there a way to recover and what can be the reason ?
thanks,

Is there a way to recover and what can be the reason ?
You might be able to use a data recovery utility for any data which was stored on your machine. IMAP e-mail though is stored on the internet service provider. .Mac/MobileMe e-mail is also IMAP, so it too might be making a disappearing act due to the MobileMe migration:
http://www.apple.com/mobileme/status/
Otherwise if you aren't using .Mac/MobileMe, and are using IMAP, you can ask your internet service provider to attempt to recover e-mails from their tapes for the last several months.
Recovery utilities for the Mac can recover to an empty Firewire hard drive at least as big as the internal hard drive. They include Prosoft Data Rescue, Subrosasoft Filesalvage, and Boomerang's Boomerang. If none of these can recover that data, and it was on your machine, you may need to seek the services of a data recovery specialist such as http://www.drivesavers.com/
Hard drives fail, and you should always have a backup plan*:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
Once backed up, and/or recovered to the best of your ability, you can explore one more reason for data being missing, and that's directory damage. But since hard drives failing can have the same symptoms we wouldn't want to make your damage worse by running a directory repair utility on your machine without your data backed up. Let us know once you are recovered? Then we can check and see if directory damage is to blame.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

    From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
    They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

  • NMH - All DATA LOST

    Media Hub Reset - All data lost
    Hi,
    I have NMH300, Serial No ; BTS26J306488.It was running in RAID Mode (Disk Mirror) with two 1TB Hard Disks.
    The firmware was up to date.And I had enabled various services on it, like Windows Shares, FTP etc.I had also renamed the hub to "MYCLOUD"
    Then one day last week when I tried to find the mediahub "MYCLOUD" on my network shares list it was no longer visible.
    The status of Lights on the hub was Both disks "Blue" in colour.
    Then after trying to investigate, I realised that the device has rested to its default state and all my configurations are gone. The name is also reset to "MEDIAHUB"
    Then in the configuration sections, I went to "DISK" settings.
    There I see that Slot B is empty.
    So what I interpret from this is that one of my disks might have crashed.
    But the sd part is it also says "RAID MODE" Linear1
    HELP : Can linksys help me get my data back.
    I feel so betrayed by the promise of a reliable NAS device by Cisco.
    How can CISCO design products that are not properly tested before launching in the market.I havd approx 800 GB of data that seems to have just vanished.

    Hi there,
    It is sad that things like this happen. I haven't encountered any major issues with my mediahub for the past 2 years. Now, the only way that it will revert back to single disk mode is when someone would actually set it via configuration page. Now, since your two 1TB drives were set originally to RAID1, try to take out the 2nd HD (Slot 2) from the Mediahub and check if your files are still there. You can also try to take out the HD from slot 1 and replace it  with the HD from slot 2 leaving just 1 HD at a time. You may do a hard reset on the mediahub as well. Doing a reset would change your disk configuration. It will only change the basic settings (mediahub's friendly name, FTP name). So just give it a shot and post some updates.
    Hope this could help. I am not sure if Cisco has data recovery facility. If your HD is within manufacturer warranty, then you may try to have it recovered on their end.
    Cheers!

  • HT201263 I tried to reset my iPhone (3gs) with deleting all data. When it power off and automatically again on then it is showing Apple logo only. Not restore and startup my phone. I tried to charge and not charging. What I should do now?

    I tried to reset my iPhone (3gs) with deleting all data. When it power off and automatically again on then it is showing Apple logo only. Not restore and startup my phone. iPhone alerming low charge and I tried to charge and not charging.
    What I should do now?

    Something has gone wrong. Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, select "new".

  • I have updated my iphone and all  data have gone including photos contacts and notes .is there any solution? I am about to syncope!

    I have updated my iphone4 and all  data have gone including photos contacts and notes .is there any solution?

    All data that was on your iPhone should be on your computer.
    All photos that were transferred to your iPhone from your computer should remain on your computer and can be retransferred. Photos/videos captured by the iPhone can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera - especially before installing an iOS update. Re-transfer these photos from your computer as with any other photos available on your computer.
    Contacts and notes are designed to be synced with a supported application on your computer, and there are some free email accounts that support syncing contacts and notes over the air.

  • Manual ios update and all data lost?

    I updated my ipad manually and everything went well but when i updated my dads ipod touch 3g all data was LOST!!!!!! My dad went mad!! He had tonnes of songs in his collection especially old songs and he didnt make any back up.......please suggest how i can recover these songs my dad is sooooo upset!
    THanks in advance!!!

    If they are not on the iPod or computer they are gone. However, iTunes purchases can be redownload by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If the synced items like music and apps are not in the iTunes library on which you do an update they well be lost since the backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like aps or music.

  • Ipod Synced with PC and all data lost

    Hi, I have a new Ipod classic 120 GB. I normally use it with my macbook and all was good till yesterday my brother synced it with a PC and all data was lost. My Ipod has a few mp3 music flies which i cannot delete and gives me error code 61. It also refuses to be recognized by my macbook again although when i connect the itunes open in my macbook but doesnot read the ipod and does not sync. I have even tried to restore. The ipod pluged in icon appears on the screen. Any suggestions to help me get my data back from my macbook itunes would be much appreciated.

    DId you sync you iPod on another computer?  If so the photos are gone.
    Unless you synced/backed up your iPod after you had taken the photos and the backup still has the photos, the photos are gone.  You can go to iTunes>Preferences>DIvices and see the date of the backup.

  • My iphone is in recovery mode, the itunes and usb cable symble, is all data lost at this point or is it possible to recover some or all data on the phone?

    My iphone is in recovery mode, the itunes and usb cable symble displayed, does this mean that all data is lost or is there some way to recover the data on the phone.

    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • Updated to itunes 11 and all data lost from ipod and library

    I updated to itunes 11 yesterday and then downloaded some cd's I'd bought on HMV Digital. lugged ipod in and all music appeared in library as normal. i transferred new music onto ipod and created some playlists. When i turned my ipod on this morning to go to work, there are no songs on it at all, not even the ones i downloaded and transferred last night!!!!
    Having logged into itunes again tonight, the only music in my library is that which i downloaded last night... I am livid, there were thousands of songs on there and I don't have access to that music anymore... Is there any way I can retreive the info? All music isn't backed up on this laptop as ipod was previously synced with different PC

    Just FYI - the situation is resolved.  I downloaded the new snow leopard 10.6.8 update for safari and now itunes works.  I have no idea what that has to do with anything - but I saw it on another forum and it actually worked.

  • Data discrapancy between queries in SAP and BW

    Hi All,
    I have a problem in data discrapancy between the queries in SAP R/3 and BW Queries .can any one please tell me how to investigate this kind of problems and how to fetch this data ,
    please help me ASAP this is an urgent issue
    and how many ways we can investigate this kind of issues ,please send me some steps .......
    Thanks
    Tom

    Hi Tom,
    You can proceed in a step by step fashion when trying to match the BW query data with that in R/3 reports.
    . Try to check the filters and calculations applied in the BW query. You can create a very basic query if required.
    . If this does not work then try using transaction LISTCUBE so that you can directly see the data in the InfoCube as per your chosen selections.
    . If this doesn't yield anything, then look at the way data is being processed: Any code in the Start routines, Update or Transfer rules. Check them for correctness.
    . If you loaded through the PSA, you can also check data in the PSA. Or you can also check the data extracted using RSA3 in the R/3 system.
    . Try to provide us some more specifics about the data that you are trying to match. Which module is it? Which is the datasource?
    Hope this helps...

  • Iphone 3G & software update - all data lost

    I decided to update the software on my iphone 3G. Thought everything would be saved as I have done this before and it was ok, but this wasn't the case. All data has been lost including all photos, numbers etc. I really need to get the photos and phone numbers back. Any ideas what to do?

    I have plugged the iphone into itunes and selected restore, it then says it will restore the phone to the original factory settings. It says all of the media and other data will be lost. Is this ok? Or will I loose all the music, apps etc.
    Thanks
