Any way to recover a lost media file after a master reset?

we did a master reset a few months ago. i thought i had everything i wanted saved on my sd card. i just realised that i had an 8 hour lecture that i recorded using the stock voice recorder. it defaults to phone memory when recording. i didn't know that. so after the master reset the whole 8 hour lecture is gone. is there any way to restore it?
i keep seeing this backup assistant running every night, but i don't know how to access the backed up files. i don't remember seeing it before the master reset so i seriously doubt it would have backed up that lecture, but i'm hoping there's a small chance.

Hi tpolley,
I can definitely understand the importance of this lecture you had saved on your phone. When doing a master reset any info that was not saved to the sd card would be deleted and cannot be restored. Back Up Assistant is a great tool to use for your contacts and media (such as pictures). It would not have been able to assist with your other info. I am sorry for any frustration this may have caused you. Let us know if you need anything else.

Don't know what you mean by "some time ago", but unless you activated Find My Phone and the phone is still on, the answer is no. (Even if you ask 3 times).

Is there any way to recover my ipod's data after water damage ?

My ipod fell in water (toilet). I turned it on to see if it still worked (I know I shouldn't had to) and the screen hardly worked. The morning after nothing worked so i put it in a sock beside the refrigerator ( warm and dry place).I've been constantly travelling so i couldn't take it to a specialist. I had some really important recordings (dictaphone app) and i'd like to know if there is any way to recover them. Thank you SO MUCH for taking your time to read this. Have a nice day

I did and was told that they're waiting on the replacement of the defective screen. The battery is slowly draining, so it doesn't seem that they're using it, I was just hoping there was a way to double check without saying flat out that I'm starting to not trust them. KWIM? I'm nowthinking that once the battery dies, I'm going to activate the lost mode and hope for the best.

Is there any way to recover the broken iMovie files, that were moved to a different unauthorized drive?

I moved the iMovie projects and events folder to a regular harddrive. I know now, i the aftermath that it was a wrong thing to do, and i was wondering whether there are some way to recover the projects to use them in iMovie again?

More details on why you think a regular harddrive was the wrong place to move a movie.
What other kind of harddrive is there besides regular? Irregular?

Is there any way to recover the iTunes Library file from the iPod Touch to preserve metadata like Date Added?

Topic.
I used software (SharePod) to retrieve music from my iPod Touch after my original harddrive failed, but the program does not retrieve the iTunes Library file needed to import the metadata into iTunes (though it shows in the program itself). The music backed up with no issue, but I don't have what I need to preserve things like Date Added, Play Count, etc. Any solution if I have only the physical iPod Touch?

Yo may be able to extract some info from the backup of the iPod:

I dis-activated and re-activated my iMessages yesterday. In the process, some messages that people sent me were delivered but I never received them after re-activation. Is there any way to recover these lost messages?

Note: I have an ipad as well, and the messages did not appear there either.

There isn't a way but I guess you could try turning iMessages off restart the phone and turn them back on. Just have the person resend them to you.

Is there any way to recover a damaged psd file?

I'm sure the answer is no but I thought it was worth asking. I have Photoshop Elements 6.0. I was working on an image with 3 layers and I'd been saving very regularly, then my computer crashed. It didn't crash while I was saving but it must have still been saving when it happened because my file got damaged. Now when I open it, it comes up with a message saying 'This document contains Adobe Photoshop data which appears to be damaged. Continue and ignore the Photoshop data?' when I click ok it then says 'The embedded ICC profile cannot be used because the ICC profile descrition is invalid. Ignoring the profile'. When the image opens its completely flat and black. I've tries a few recovery programmes but that didn't seem to work. I found a temp file but I don't think it'ss a real temp file because it doesn't have an extension. Can anyone help?

One thing you can try is going to the folder where you had the photo in and right click on the folder and click on Properties.
Then in the Properties dialog click on Previous Versions.
Now choose one of the dates and/or times before your computer crashed and click on Copy and in the Copy dialog the appears choose another location on your computer like your desktop to
copy the folder to. (don't use the Restore button or that could possibly mess up the other things in that folder)
The above will only work if you have system restore on or do backups of your drive.

HT4623 Is there any way to recover my contacts after this last update? I evidently did not do the cloud thing correctly, thought it backed up when charging.

Is there any way to recover my photos and contacts after this last update? Evidently I did not back up properly, I thought that your phone backed up while charging.... Not so?

In order to recover something that info has to exist. Where is it? Tell us where your data is backed up and you will get your answer. Places where your contacts can be recovered from: Facebook app, emails like gmail or yahoo, windows contacts, Mac contacts/address book, outlook, exchange, iCloud backup, iCloud synced contacts(that one is unlikely, or you wouldn't be here), iTunes backup.

Adobe Reader XI did not save the form data (unlike previous versions). Any way to recover file?

Adobe Reader XI did not save the form data (unlike previous versions). Any way to recover filled form with data from temp locations?
I was not aware that ctrl+s no longer works in reader and closed the PDF after savign it(with ctrl+s). However ,the data is lost and there seems to be no way to recover it.
I cannot find any temp files created by Reader on my system.
Also to my surprize(and shock), the reader did not even show a warning before closing the PDF. Does anybody know if/where can I recover the file from?
Guys, Please reply ASAP if you have got any sort of solution!

Hi Pat,
Are you using Adobe Reader XI? And not Acrobat. It does not ask me to save the form if there are unsaved changes.
I have used previous versions of reader for saving this form data and it did allow me to save it with ctrl+s. And those versions did prompt me to save the changes before closing.
I guess I should not have updated the reader.

Where are temp files for Photoshop CS4? Is there any way to recover from themM?

Hi. My Mac crashed with all my work. I forgot to do Cmd S and now I lost 2 days worth of work in Photoshop CS4. Any chance the work is still in temp files? If yes, is there any way to recover files from them? Best, Caldvin

If you had any smart objects involved, you might be able to get to them. But no, not your main file.
How did you manage to work for two days without a save!?!
We all have to suffer these every now and again, teaches you to hit “save” every thirty seconds. You’ll be obsessive about it for eight months, then forget, loose hours of work and repeat. Perfectly natural.
On the plus side doing something the second time is usually quicker…

Lost sys password ...any way to recover

hi All
I lost the sys password ... is there any way to recover it ....
Thanks

Pay no attention to the ridiculous piece of advice you've just been given by someone else! Restoring a prior backup would be a monumentally moronic thing to do -apart from anything else, all you'd be doing is restoring the password you say you've forgotten!
You don't say what OS you're on, and that makes a bit of a difference, but ultimately not much so I'll just carry on... but as a tip for the future, always mention your OS because then people replying don't have to guess.
1. Members of the dba group (or the ORA_DBA group on Windows) are allowed to log on as a SYS without supplying a password at all. Connect / as sysdba means "get me on as sys, but I'm not telling you my password" -at which point Oracle checks who you're logged on to at the OS level, and then checks the group memberships of the dba (Linux/Unix) or ORA_DBA groups (Windows). If you're a member you're in... and then you can issue a command such as 'alter user sys identified by newpwd'.
You can only really do this technique, however, when you're connecting on the box which runs Oracle itself. If you don't have access to the server, it's not going to work. You also need to configure those OS groups with the appropriate tools. If you don't know how to do that, you're in trouble.
2. If you're using a password file to authenticate as SYS, then you can simply delete the existing password file and replace it with a new one... and you get to specify the new password for SYS at the time you create the new file. The utility provided by Oracle for this purpose is "orapwd" and the command on Windows, for example, would look like:
orapwd file=c:\oracle\10g\databases\pwdSID.ora password=newpwd entries=20
The file has to live in the ORACLE_HOME\database or ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory; it has to be called whatever is appropriate for your operating system (now you see why it helps to know your OS!) and the figure for "entries" represents how many people you might want to grant the SYSDBA privilege to in the future, so make it higher than you think you need right now.
On Linux, the required name for the password file is of the form orapwSID, where SID is the name of your instance/database. On Windows, it's as I showed you above: pwdSID.ora.
Once you have a new password file in place, you can log in as 'sys\newpword@somedb as sysdba' and again issue an 'alter user sys identified by yetanothernewpword' command: that will update the password file as well as changing things inside the database itself and you'll log on with that password thereafter.
