Can I get back an email I was composing after losing power and the computer shut down?

While composing a long, complicated email, the warning came on that I was about to lose battery power. By the time I plugged my computer in to the electrical outlet, it had already shut down. I powered it up and checked my email drafts folder, but the email was not there. Is there any way I can get it back?

Hi,
Thanks. Doesn't a Mac save your draft automatically from time to time while you're typing it? On my PC I could click on "Save" occasionally and save what I was working on until that point, but on my Mac Book Pro I've never figured out how to do that. My Mac seemed to do it automatically. For example, if for some reason I stopped working on an email but came back to it later, it was in my Drafts folder. However, this time my Mac shut down while I was composing my email and now I can't find it. It's nowhere to be found?!

On shut down I get a window that says Continue the installation Choose abort if you wish to cancel the installation If I don't press anything or if I press Yes or Abort the message goes away and the computer shuts down. This has been going on for ov

I have a 27" iMac mid 2011 2.7 GHz intel core i5 with OS 10.10.1. For about the last month when I shut down I get a window that says "Continue the installation Choose abort if you wish to cancel the installation ABORT   YES".   If I don't press anything or if I choose ABORT or Yes the message goes away and the computer shuts down. But the next time I use the computer and then shut down the message is back. I have looked to see if there are any downloads pending or if there are any updates trying to download. I am very puzzled.

I was working on a word document and the computer shut down suddenly. I got a grey screen with a message that your computer shut down because of a proble. It was written in various languages. It asked me to press any key to restart. I tried to restart it but the wheel just kept going on and on. So I shut it down and I tried to restart it. But I still keepgetting the wheel under the apple symbol and nothing else.

I just upgraded to Snow Leopard then Lion and the computer shut down after installation.
Now when it starts up it gets as far as the apple icon and then shuts down again
whenever I turn it on it loads that far and then closes.
HELP!

Restore your bootable backup/clone or Time Machine backup of Snow Leopard, launch Disk Utility from the install disc, repair the boot volume, and reinstall Lion.

Why can't I back-up my apps before upgrade after I've authorized the computer?

I'm trying to update my dad's phone and it would not let me transfer his apps to this computer even after I have authorized the computer several times. ( its the third computer out of five. I was wondering if I was doing something wrong. There are 26 apps and I dont want to lose them all, I would like them to be backed up before I upgrade to ios 5.

Is it because I'm using a new computer from the one I originally synced my old 3G with?
Ya think?

Yesterday I changed my email password on my home computer. Today, I can't get any new emails on my Samsung Galaxy 4; I deleted the email account entirely and tried to set it up again as a new account, using the new password, but it keeps giving me an error message that reads: Cannot safely connect to server. The new password is working on my home computer. I even tried the old password; it just gave me the same error message.

I'm sorry you're having issues with your e-mail account on your phone Rusty1112. Let's figure out what's going on. First, please try deleting account/information again and then restart phone. When phone is back on, try adding e-mail account again, and be sure you're entering exactly as you set up, meaning its case-sensitive. If you're still getting same error, please let us know and let us know what e-mail account it is, Yahoo, AOL, MSN, etc.
Thank you,

Update: An Apple rep called me today to update the status of my return. I was told that the replacements for the BLACK iPad 2's was still another 3 weeks out (at least) so they offered me a brand new WHITE 16GB iPad 2. I could have that or continue waiting. I opted to go ahead and accept the offer of a new white one. Worst case scenario if I don't like the white one I have buddy that just bought a 16GB black one that he would be willing to swap it.

I just subscribed to IHome but when it tries to gather information about my music library, I get an error message that my Itunes is not responding and then it shuts down. Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks so much but none of that helped. It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive. I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
Thank you for your help and replying to this. Guess I made my own issue!

Hello tsnovak!
Is English your first language? If not, I can help get someone who can speak your language to translate this article.
Tsnovak, you seem to be on a Apple Logo Loop. This has happened with several iPod generations. Contact Apple Support here: <https://www.apple.com/support/contact/>
Thanks!

I sent the below email to Google Support after downloading Chrome and the suggestion of Gardens of TIme, and google has never responded:
"My computer has been infected by your Google Chrome product.
I "installed" Chrome at the recommendation of Facebook for a "game" that I use. I followed all Google Chrome's instructions.
My computer has received MULTIPLE warnings and infections.
TROJAN HORSE SHEUR4.CBE
TROJAN HORSE GENERIC 24.CHOF

TROJAN HORSE JS/XULCACHE.A
Also, a multitude of tracking cookies and corrupted executable files. After I uninstalled Google, and Google Chrome (more than once), the problem persists. I have contacted AVG support and the only solution is to pay to have my computer fixed.
The first time this happened, 09/12/2011, I had to turn off every thing via my power strip in order to stop my computer from completely crashing. The AVG anti virus program I have has to run constantly because of Google Chrome. These warnings and these infections cannot be removed without me having to pay to have my computer cleaned/cleared of the infections. I am disable, a widow, and on very tight and fixed income. I cannot express how upset I am with this situation."
Each time I use Mozilla Firefox I am given a message to "allow a script" from CHROME

A '''chrome://...''' message from Firefox has nothing to do with the Google Chrome web browser, "chrome" is a term used for the Firefox user interface. If you give us that full "chrome" message, we can probably figure out what your problem is.

Ok. so I updated to iOS 5. Downloaded it from iTunes and all. But in the middle of installing the iOS, i fell asleep. not knowing my computer was at a low battery charge my computer shut down. I did a DFU already but i'm not sure if it the os is complete.

Restore to factory settings. That will use the latest iOS and then restore from a backup.
Never, never, never attempt an update/upgrade on any portable computer device without plugging it into its AC charger.

Do you experience the same issue using other browsers, e.g. Safari?

Can I get back an email I was composing after losing power and the computer shut down?
