All mail deleted after restart!

I deleted some files on my computer because my start-up disk was filling up (deleted in iTunes and iPhoto), but when my computer booted up again, Entourage had erased all of my inbox, outbox, sent mail, and deleted mail that I had accumulated for 2 years! It also erased all the information to set it up: I have to re-enter the email address I use because it cannot send and receive mail yet.
Is there any way to retrieve my lost mail??

It gets weirder:
If I "trick" Mail's setup by having it use some random server (so I can manually input all of the settings), I am able to access gmail via IMAP & SMTP.
So I can get it to work... BUT, there's a "funny" caveat:
Under Mail's preferences (Accounts tab), there is the 'Description', 'Email Address', etc. information.
Well, if 'Email address' is a bogus address, it works (Still the correct username/pw/server information, though).
If I set it to the actual email address, Mail then asks to save the settings - and if I click "yes" mail immediately crashes.
O.o

  • All messages deleted after restart. iCloud recovery?

    I was texting a friend then suddenly iMessage stopped working, I thought it was her phone so I got her to turn off WiFi, restart her phone etc, nothing worked, so I restarted my phone and when I turned it back on ALL my messages were deleted. I never delete any messages and haven't for years so this was a very big list some with sentimental value, especially in recent weeks with Christmas and New Years etc, I do have a backup from November but haven't backed up since because I have been travelling and left my primary machine at home. Does iCloud back up text messages? If so am I able to recover them that way?

    Hi
    Do you know if icloud actually backs up the sms?

    Can you do setup an unread mail folder that shows all unread mail regardless of what folder it really is in on the iPhone mail program somehow?
    No.
    If not, can this be submitted as an enhancement as it makes email use very cumbersome.
    Yes. You can submit feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html.

  • URGENT :All data lost after restart

    Hi all,
    I did a restart after using win7 in bootcamp.
    after the restart, all my personal user data are gone. my desktop got wipe out clean with only Macintosh HD drive and bootcamp on it. my dock, trackpad, wallpaper change to default setting.
    i did a check on my applications and all the applications are still intact. however, when i open my safari, all the history is there, but there is no recent download item, all gone! There seems to be no users data in any of the applications. and although all my applications are still there, other folders located in desktop, roots, and other locations are gone.
    My email, outlook email, documents and download are also gone. And i dont have any backup.
    Can somebody help me? Can i recover all my data back?

    Yes you can, but your going to need to stop using the computer before your deleted files are overwritten with new data.
    There is a piece of software called DataRescue ($99) what it can do if installed on another Mac or bootable hard drive is to read the 1's and 0's of deleted data and recover everything to another blank hard drive.
    Then all you have to do is pick through it and save what you want.
    You need to learn either one or two things
    1: How to install OS X onto a external drive and option key boot from it
    2: Firewire Target Disk Mode from another Mac. (T boot the sick Mac)
    I don't know what you want to do a this point but you need to stop using the computer that the files got overwritten on immediatly.
    Bascially you can't be running OS X on the drive/partition your having problems with nor the Windows partition which has access to the OS X partition.
    If you think you can't handle this, then hire the services of a local PC/Mac specialist trained in data recovery.

  • All data deleted after upgrade to iOS8

    I am deeply sad. All data has been deleted after upgrade to iOS8.
    What I did:
    1. Connect ipad to PC to transfer records from voice recorder.
    2. iTunes offered to upgrade system.
    3. I confirmed.
    4. Some unknown error occured in the end of upgrade process.
    5. When iPad started, iOS8 was there. All data disappeared.
    6. I am sad. All valued data I need is lost... (no backup has been done before upgrade).
    Pls advice is it possible to get data back.

    Yes. I did backup.
    But don't know how to get it.
    Actualy, all I need is 2 records from Recorder programm. Before upgrade I downloaded records from itunes; screen → http://joxi.ru/caQdVIwyTJDKAjTtsuk
    Now it is empty, no records.
    I see that backup of this programm data available in storage. But don't know how to get it from there; screen → http://joxi.ru/taUdVP3JTJAaYtIkBaI
    By the way iTunes tells me that backup copies available for today only → http://joxi.ru/7KUdVP3JTJBAXfQZjgI

  • All Mail Crashed after IPHONE 2.0.1 update

    I have the old Iphone --pre 3G. I tried to send an email yesterday, after having run the 2.0.1 update. First I got the (connection to outgoing server "smtpout.secureserver" failed). Then after multiple retries, the mail in my inbox disappeared. Instead there is a msg. "Load More Messages.." When you click on that, nothing happens.
    The mail worked fine, prior to this update. The settings have not changed. Help

    Good Morning:
    I couldn't wait until this afternoon to try to do a reinstall. I woke up this morning and thought of something which I completely forgot about last night - I have a 2nd computer with iTunes on it!
    So - I updated to the latest version of iTunes on computer 2 this morning and performed a restore on my iPhone and it WORKED! It did update to the 2.0.1 while doing the restore.
    I then unpluged the iPhone when it completed and moved it to computer 1 and wanted to perform a backup, but it immediatly backed up my fresh iPhone update which appears to have erased the backup with all my info. NO PROBLEM though, I simply checked all the items I wanted to sync and it's now updating and when done I'll have to change a few things on my iPhone again. But, I have my phone today!
    I'm still going to uninstall iTunes later today and reinstall. I have my wife's iPhone to update to the 2.0.1 software. So, this will be a good test. We will see what happens. I will post the results.

  • All contacts deleted after last sync

    After the first sync since I got the new 2.0 update on my iPhone last week, suddenly all my Contacts were gone!! I checked, and the reason was that for some "God knows why" the Address Book of my Mac had lost all of the contacts too. I have got Entourage as well, which is synchronized with the Address Book (had it like that for more than a year, and worked fine, always "syncing" fine between them and with the iPhone). I checked that all the right options, buttons were correctly clicked and still nothing. Restarted the Mac again and the same. Fortunately, I managed to export into a text file the contacts from Entourage and import the txt file to the Address Book and after 5 mins, fine. I have synched my iPhone now and it has got the contacts back again, although I have lost the customizing, like photos for each contact, ringing tone, etc...
    What has happened!!
    Hopefully is nothing to do with Apple trying to push the MobileMe or something!!!
    Has this happened to somebody else too??

  • Help - All Contacts deleted after deleting mobile me account on iphone.

    I don't know what has happened but all my contacts have gone from my iphone. The only thing I am conscious of doing is deleting the trial mobile me account from the iphone following the expiry of the trial period. Is there any backup on my computer to recover these? I can't see anything obvious in iTunes. Is there any other way of getting them back?

    If the internet connection to your MobileMe online address book is lost for whatever reason (in this case you cancelled your MobileMe account so there was no longer an internet connection to your MobileMe online address book), the contacts on your iPhone don't disappear. The contacts are cached locally so if your MobileMe online address book is not available for whatever reason, you still have access to the contacts to place a call, send an MMS, etc.
    When deleting the account from your iPhone, all contacts that had been synced over the air with your MobileMe account are deleted from your iPhone - the cache in this situation. When you first turned Contacts on for over the air syncing with your MobileMe account, what happened? If you don't remember, all existing contacts on your iPhone were erased and replaced with your MobileMe online address book. After this, the contacts were being kept synchronized with your MobileMe online address book but not technically stored locally on your iPhone. When you deleted the account, all contacts that had been synced over the air with your MobileMe online address book were deleted with the account.
    Since all existing contacts on your iPhone were deleted when first turning Contacts on for over the air syncing with your MobileMe account, where did your MobileMe online contacts originate from? Did your MobileMe online contacts originate from the Address Book on your Mac? If not, they should have and should have been kept synchronized between your MobileMe online address book and your iPhone. If so, your contacts should remain in the Address Book on your Mac and you can sync your iPhone direct with the Address Book on your Mac via the iTunes sync process. This is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

  • Can't setup pop account and all mail deleted from server!!

    Trying to set up a mail account as pop. But Mail is determined to set it as imap.
    I've humoured it and gone through the process.
    After clicking 'create account' it gives the message that it's downloading 500+ messages. Once it's finished, nothing is in the inbox.
    To make matters worse, every single email has been deleted from the server. I do have a backup of my important emails but if this is something which is not isolated to me, then I feel sorry for anyone who does not have a backup.
    So...
    Is there a way to manually setup my account with settings of my choosing?
    Or, is this just a case of Apple deciding whats best for me and resistance is futile?
    Cheers

    I'm not sure what Mail version you're using and you can't change an existing IMAP account to POP, but you can add a new pop account in Mail 6.0 in a round-about way.
    When you're setting up the account it will only try it as IMAP, so in the first segment where it asks for the password, purposely enter the wrong password and click continue.  An error message will result, then click continue again and you will see a new window with a pull-down menu to select POP.  From there you can manually fill out the rest according to your server's settings. (Don't forget to put in the correct password this time.)
    In your case, I'm not sure how your messages left your server, but if you have webmail for the account you can check the trash there.  Also, you will have to delete the IMAP version of the email account before you can use the address for the new POP account setup.
    Personally, I use IMAP on my iPhone and POP in Mail for a more manual control of my accounts, so I know how you feel.  Hope this helps.

  • Yahoo Account Hacked - All Mail Deleted - Only mail on phone remains...

    One of my yahoo accounts was hacked and all of my mail was deleted. However, all of my mail remains on my iPhone because I used POP3. How do I transfer my mail to my computer?
    I would really appreciate any assistance.

    Unless there is a 3rd party utility available that provides for transferring email from an account's mailbox to your computer but then the email would need to be imported by an email client and not sure if an email client supports that, you can email each email to yourself.

  • Lost profile and all mail folders after mac crash

    disaster! my mac crashed. when i restarted and opened thunderbird, i was prompted to create an account. ii spent a lot of time on mozilla support--determined that my address book was in tact and tried several things according to other posts including moving the profile. nothing worked. i finally set up a new account, hoping to import the old folders. but now its a mess. i cannot find anything that resembles the old folders, i dont have a back up (i know), and im in over my head.
    does anyone have suggestions of how untangle this. or know of support available in nyc. the folders contain years of business emails--i would happily hire someone at this point.

    If you are being asked to create a new account you have lost your profile not just the mail folders. Read this article on how to attempt to recover it.
