  • IPhone deleting emails from folders

    I've been having a problem with an iPhone 3GS deleting emails from folders.  This has only been happening for about 3 or 4 weeks but is a very critical issue.  I've lost several critical emails that are not recoverable!  It makes using the iPhone to view saved messages useless!  Maybe time for a droid?
    The issue may have started when I upgraded to version 5.0.1  When you select a folder your see the email you want and then it just disappears.  It is deleted and not able to find it anywhere.  I'm using AT&T email which is Yahoo.  I log on to Yahoo email and the email has also been completely deleted.  I have been using the 3GS with Yahoo mail for over two years without any issue.  Something in IOS has changed that has added the new unwanted feature.  Apple needs to get it resolved!  Does anyone know when a fix is coming? 

    I've yet to hear of that issue specifically previous to this post. You might test it with another account just so you're not puting your real account in danger. It definiatly won't hurt to update. I would also turn on the "ask before deleting" option in the settings to see if that helps any.
    Keep us updated.

  • Can't dbl left click JPEG icon on desktop -  to then open Bridge CS4

    In CS3 I was able to dbl left click any JPEG icon on my desktop and it would open up Bridge (with view of my Desktop files). Now with CS4 I've set default "opens with" to Bridge CS4 and when I dbl left click on the icon nothing happens?!? Note that PSD files on my desktop have automatically changed to the new CS4 icon - and when I double left click on these PS CS4 opens up. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi bkbl?
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    First check in Applications to see if there is an iTunes icon there?
    If so then just drag the one on your Desktop to the dock, make sure it works and then drag the old one off.

  • Left-click on firefox icon in taskbar shows a list of all tabs. how to just open to last tab?

    I use the tab grouping feature a lot. That means I have 100s of tabs open at any one time.
    The problem: once one switch between tab groups, the Firefox icon on the taskbar changes to what looks like multiple echoes of the Firefox icon. I guess it is supposed to represent multiple tab groups.
    Before Firefox 20 one could click on the Firefox icon on the taskbar, and Firefox would come up and show the last tab I have been working on.
    Since Firefox 20 a left-click on the Firefox icon on the taskbar now shows a tab list of 28+ seemingly random tabs. Many of them just says "Mozilla Firefox" instead of the website represented by that tab (because the tab was not accessed recently).
    To open Firefox to the last tab I have been working on is now a real chore. I now have to pick one of these 28+ tabs (which is 99% of the time the wrong tab), then switch to the correct tab group, and then find the tab I have been working on. It typically takes 5-10 clicks to get back to where I was before I minimized Firefox, or before Firefox lost the focus. (In the past I could simply click on the Firefox icon on the taskbar, and Firefox restored where I last left off.)
    How can I turn off the tab list that pops up when one left-click or hover the mouse over the Firefox icon on the taskbar? I would love to get the ability to minimize/restore Firefox back by clicking on the Firefox icon on the taskbar as it was in the past, not get a choice of random tabs.

    Okay, with a lack of replies here, here are some solutions I came up with:
    * Quit Firefox and restart it. It reduces the number of clicks to just two. It is even faster than wading through the list of tab groups and tabs to get back to the last tab I was working on.
    * Use Alt-Tab to switch between applications instead of clicking on the Firefox icon on the taskbar. I'll have to change my habits, as I'm used to clicking on the icon to toggle between applications, especially if one has many applications open. I typically have a dozen applications open at any time, and Alt-Tabbing through them all can be time-consuming.
    * I found nothing that seems related in the about:config screens, e.g. an option to turn off tab.list
    * Switch to Chrome.
    Anyone got better ideas or solutions?

  • Hiding files when left clicking on the dock

    From the "Dock", when I left click on "Preview" it shows the recent files I had viewed. How do I stop the files from showing up when I left click on "Preview"?

    I've done that and it didn't work.
    ( I've quit Preview. I've opened Preview, then File, Clear Menu ) and these don't work as well.

  • Asking for my password when I try and delete a file

    I have a few files that I can't seem to delete without the computer asking for my password. When I try and delete them, it shows this message:
    Authenticate
    Finder requires that you type your password
    Then the window has fields for my name and password. Under the Details arrow it says this:
    Requested right: com.apple.desktopservices
    Application: /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app
    I'm not happy with having to provide my password just to delete a file. And not all files produce this result. Why does it do this?
    Cheers,
    Tina

    Select the folder containing the file in the Finder and choose Get Info from the File menu; if the file is on the desktop, click on the desktop so that no icon is selected. Under Ownership & Permissions, change the settings so you have Read & Write access to the folder. This should not be done in system-level folders.
    You will be asked to enter your password when you try to delete the file in the following circumstances:
    1. If the folder you're deleting the file from is set not to allow you write access. This is the most common case.
    2. If the folder containing the file has the Locked checkbox set. This cannot be turned on or off in the Finder in versions of Mac OS X older than 10.4. If this was the case, you would be told that you didn't have permission to delete the file even after entering your password.
    3. If the enclosing folder has the sticky bit set and neither the file nor the enclosing folder are owned by your account. No item in your home folder should have the sticky bit set, but other parts of the hard disk(such as /Users/Shared/ and the hard disk itself) do.

  • How can I recover deleted folders - also - question about editing/deleting msf files

    Context: My wife accidentally deleted a series of folders from Thunderbird v.24.6.0
    She says that the system warned her that there was "not enough space" or something like that (she doesn't remember clearly) and asked her if she wanted to "delete them permanently" (or something like that), but she pressed "yes" anyway. She then freaked out, and when I came in to see what she was screaming and crying about, she told me the above story.
    SO, after spending the last 2-3 hours reading through help articles and finding my local Mail file/structure, learning about Mork and msf and compacting and X-Mozilla-Status codes, downloading Notepad++ and poking around through some of the files to familiarize myself with their format ... here I am trying to learn how to restore the folders.
    Here is where I am at so far:
    1. When I went to the Activity Manager, it shows the folders that were deleted, one below the others in a list with the title "Deleted folder foldername" with a dozen different folder names.
    2. When I look for the one of the folders that was deleted in the Mail/path/foldername" - I open it (the one without the file extension) in notepad++ and it is empty. There only exists line 1 and there is no text in it (vs. the other folders I check that have the emails in standard From_line format.
    This concerns me greatly and leaves me stuck. Did TB actually delete and compact the folder? Are they really deleted, not just X-Mozilla-Status deleted?
    3. I don't understand how to restore a folder. I know I can go into a folder and change the X-Mozilla-Status for individual messages - but how to I restore the entire folder? I don't understand how the msf related to the deleted files/folders. It seems like there would be an entry/code somewhere that tells TB - "don't read this entire folder" that I could reverse/edit. I can't figure it out on my own.
    4. I understand that, if I delete the foldername.msf file, TB will compact the foldername file. I think I should NOT do this because it will permanently delete the files I want to restore - right?
    Any help would be appreciated. I have an unhappy wife. Thank you.

    The message she garbled I would assume is that the deletions were to large and that the deleted folder would be bypassed. So all the normal recovery from the trash is simply not possible. There is no Thunderbird magic available unfortunately. So your reduced to using operating system undelete software. I have no idea how that will go, but I just downloaded this http://ntfsundelete.com/download and it does appears to do the job, even if the close text is so pale as to be hard to see.

  • Is it safe to delete preview files/folders?

    I noticed I have 30gb or more of folders in a folder called preview files.  These seem to be the product of rendering and look like a waste of space - what happens if i delete the whole lot for projects i no longer work on?  would removing these and the CFA and PEAK files damage the ability to work on the file at a later stage?  I could use the extra space!
    j

    First of all, there is a difference between preview files and Media Cache files.
    Preview files are those, which are created when you render the timeline. By default they are .mpeg and .xmp. If you delete them via Sequence -> Delete Render Files, .mpeg files, which represent the current state of your timeline, will be deleted, whereas the rest .mpeg files, which represent older state of your timeline, and all .xmp ones remain.
    If you delete them manually, i.e. without going to Sequence -> Delete Render Files, you will be asked about some missing media on that project re-launch.
    Media Cache files, some of which are .pek and .cfa, are created when you import assets into a project. You can check the Media Cache files location via Preferences -> Media.
    Deleting all files from both Media Cache and Media Cache Files folders is safe: PrPro will rebuild Media Cache Database from scratch on restart. Moreover, deleting all files from both Media Cache and Media Cache Files manually sometimes helps fixing Dynamic Link or Importer Generic Error issues.

  • How do I permanently delete music files from itunes AND my  computer (without going to the folder to delete each item)? It's a windows system. I've tried 'reset all dialogue warnings' as I've been told to do but no luck. Files are still in Itunes folders.

    Solved! Music was in Itunes folder but not in Media folder within that. It doesn't seem like a very user friendly system so far!

  • I bough a Mac Pro 2010 second hand and deleted all the files without backing up now is asking me for the Apple ID of the person who installed maverick,any ideas

    If the Mac's firmware was updated, you can try this Internet Recovery:
    Hold down Command + Option + R during restart or bootup; hold until you see a spinning globe (takes up to 10 minutes). Once in the Utilities window, use Disk utility to wipe the drive, then return to the window and choose to reinstall OS X. If that works, the OS will be installed without being tied to an Apple ID.
    FWIW, if the firmware was updated, you will not be able to use the Snow leopard disk to install - I just did several tests and it does not work. You can, however, possibly install the SL onto an external drive and then clone it to the internal or (if you have a clone), boot from that and clone it back - I just tested that as well.
    If the firmware was not updated, then you can use the SL install disk.

  • HT1923 This article contains the only thing that worked for me.  I also had to sign out of iCloud and uninstall it.  Then I had to delete all files and folders from all of those applications that were under Program Files, Program Files x86, and Users.

    This article contains the only thing that worked for me.  I also had to sign out of iCloud and uninstall it.  Then I had to delete all files and folders from all of those applications that were under Program Files, Program Files x86, Program Data and Users.  My iPhone 4 will now sync with iTunes both in its USB-connected  mini dock and over Wi-Fi.  It's unfortunate (negligent programming on the part of Apple?) that the upgrade to iTunes 11 did not remove all of those files as part of the upgrade process. 

    I am having the same issue....Same address for years - same as USPS - I tried 5 times (3 macs and 2 iPhones) and now i have 5 CHARGES for 1.00 each on my credit card. I took the credit card info off so they don't charge me anymore. How can they charge me yet still not allow me to download free updates and say I have an invalid address? I'm sure I will spend weeks or months trying to get a credit out of these incompetent idiots.
