Can't find addressbook data file in my time machine, to restore it to my lion new installed OS

like everbody i updated my Snowleapord to lion, i felt my system is quiet slow so i did a clean installation and copied everything from my time machine backup manually, now i want to restore my contacts in addressbook, problem is when i dig into my timemachine i dont see any place where i can find my addressbook data, i really want that back, my time machine isnt associated with my new OS lion i can access all the files via finder but i cant use space like interface, is anyone knows how i can find my addressbook data in time machine and copy it to the path where lion keeps address book data.

Listen guyz i think you took me wrong i have resolved the problem and it will work for you as well, first you have to unhide the user/library folder in lion for that read this:
http://technocraz.wordpress.com/2011/07/27/updated-to-lion-must-be-missing-user- library-here-is-how-to-get-it-back/
after having the folder visible open you time machine in finder and copy the address book from User/Library/Application Support/AddressBook and paste the same in your User/Library/Application Support/AddressBook.
you will see all your contacts immediatly, worked for me and im sure it will work for everyone.

  • I want to restore my bookmarks but can't find the .json file in my time machine backup.

    In fact, I can't find any folder named "Firefox" in the backup Library's "Application support" folder. Could this be somewhere else? Many thanks.

    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

  • Can't find my data file to back up, so I can uninstall and reinstall the software. (Windows, Vista & Palm version 6.0.1)

    I can't find my data file, in order to back it up.  After going to Documents - Palm One, the only thing that looks like a user name is a file with no data.  Somewhere there has to be another file with all my data, since data is available when I open the Palm One software on my computer.  After backing it up, I want to uninstall and reinstall the Palm One software.  I'm hoping this resolves my inabilty hot sync.  Thanks!  Lauraflavin.

    Welcome to the WD Community.
    1) I assume I can  just hook the unit up via USB to my Mac and use iPartiion to reformat the drives, assuming each of the 4T drives will be seen by iPartition as a separate drive. That much seems straighforward.
    Yes, and in case you ipartition dont see the unit properly, you can use the disk utilities on your Mac and you will be able to reformat the unit to make it compatible with your system.
    2) Is my next step to reinstall the WD software and how do I do that? I've downloaded the Drive Utilities and Securities install apps - I assume I just run these with the drive still connected and that's all I need to do?
    Yes, just run the applications.
    3) What about the firmware update for Mac - when should I run that??
    Normally, firmware updates are released to fix any issues that you might encounter on the drive. the latest one was released on 9/24/2014 and it fixed an issue with the drive dropping off of the list after system wakes up from standby mode. 
    5) And what about the "My Book Live Duo Setup" app for Mac - is that for a completely different model? What's the difference between "My Book Live Duo" and "My Book Duo"? It's these little things that I find so confusing. 
    Those are different units. The MBL Duo is a NAS (Network attached system) and the My Book Duo is a DAS (Direct attached system)
    6) Lastly, when I have all the software installed, is that when I follow the procedure described in the Knowledge Base article ID 5724, "How to install a My Book Live or My Book Live Duo on Windows (8, 7, Vista, or XP) or Mac OSX for the first time"? Or is that procedure only for "My Book Live Duo" but not for "My Book Duo"?? 
    That procedure is for the network units, not for your drive.
     

  • Can't find Application Support from System in time machine

    I played minecraft for quite a long while. The thing is, i clean installed mountain lion, and so i backed up. But in time machine folder i couldn't find Machintosh/Libarry/Applications Support and minecraft saved folder is inside =3= can anyone help me. Thanks for helping

    Perhaps the file you are looking for is in your own Library/Application Support? Macintosh/Library/Application Support is the folder for all users. It's quite possible that it was saved there, but I would think a program would store individual user save files in the users's own Library.
    To get there, hold down the Option (alt) key and select Library from the Go menu in Finder.
    Once you have the Application Support Folder open, Enter Time Machine and restore the file from the Minecraft support folder.

  • How can I clean virus infected files on my Time Machine disk?

    I am running McAfee VirusScan and it locates and cleans virus infected files just fine on my computer, but when it finds infected files on my Time Machine backup drive it says "Repair Failed". Is there a way to clean infected files on my Time Machine backup drive?
    Related question: Is this because the actual files are saved in a central hidden location and the files I see when I open the backup disk with finder are actually just alias links?

    Schmactor,
    First, it is unlikely that your software is actually finding a virus of any kind. Many supposed reports of a virus will, in fact, be perfectly legitimate (and harmless) files. While it is possible that you'll receive a virus, it is still unlikely. Most ISPs run anti-virus software on their email servers; if a virus is sent to you in an email, it is usually removed before you download it.
    Even if you have downloaded an email, it is even less likely that you're going to send it to a Windows-using friend. Since any Windows virus is going to do absolutely nothing on your Mac, you most likely will just delete it. Are you in the habit of forwarding random emails that have unidentifiable attachments to your friends?
    Keep in mind that it is always in the best interest of the developers of anti-virus software titles that the software constantly "finds" things, even when nothing exists. If you were to purchase anti-virus software, only to find that it does absolutely nothing for months at a time, you will not pay for further updates. I have been using a Mac for many, many years, and I have never run any kind of anti-virus software. I have also never sent a virus to someone else.

  • How can I easily delete duplicate files in old Time Machine archives?

    I have multiple older Time Machine archives from different Macs that I have been going through manually and picking files out and copying them to another drive file by file. I'm running into massive quantities of duplicate files and the biggest problem is muliple iphoto pictures including the same picture in different sizes.
    I wanted to give up and just throw the whole Time Machine archive onto another disk so I could format the one it was on and use it for something else. But I got a message reading, "The backup can’t be copied because the backup volume doesn’t have ownership enabled." So I went to manually copy each "Macintosh HD" folder for each date into it's their own respective folders. It worked but required my password for each folder and each of the 19 folders were all ~75GB. Which is impossible because all of that data was on a 500GB drive.
    What should I do? This has become a two month long nightmare.

    I really don't know exactly, but since no one else has a answer I'll give it a shot.
    I don't know much about TimeMachine at all, however I did assist someone that their TM was corrupted and they needed to salvage what they could off the drive, so I'll start with that.
    There is software called Data Rescue and it's designed to read the 1's and 0's of any data on the drive, deleted or not, regardless of the file structure, and output the results to another drive.
    TimeMachine tries to save space, so it uses what appears to be duplicate files, but contain no data as they are placemarks for files in later states that went unchanged from the previous states.
    If Data Rescue has the option of recovering files independently of the file/folder structure this would result in all your files from the recoved TM drive being on all one level on the second drive.
    From that second drive one could run software called DeCloner, which would flag the actual duplicate files of content, not just by name.
    The next stage perhaps would be to eliminate files with no data, the placeholders, using the Finder "size" as a sorting option.
    Saving all this remaining content to another drive to work on further, perhaps all the remaining image files can be seperated, sorted according to largest size, the largest ones (usually the ones you want to keep as they contain more quality)  and opened into iPhoto or Aperture for further refinement as you add a small batches of smaller image sizes in to compare with the larger versions for duplicates/unwanted sizes.

  • Where can I find what the error messages of Time Machine means?

    Checking my System Log Queries I found the following:
    Could not back up OS X Recovery to /Volumes/Backup2/Backups.backupdb: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-10 "Could not create com.apple.Boot.plist for recovery set" (kCFURLUnknownError / dsMacsBugInstalled: ) UserInfo=0x7fed8b312100 {NSLocalizedDescription=Could not create com.apple.Boot.plist for recovery set}
    Can anyone explain what this means, and is it "fatal" in such a way that the backup made is useless for restoring? Where can I find documentation for such messages?

    I reinstalled OS X just as you recommended. It seems that the error message concerning the  Recovery set changed:

  • How can i find my recent iPad backup in time machine?

    Hi,
    hope somebody can help me here.
    I had to reset my iPad due to the home button issue (this by the way seems to be a hardware issue since it did not dissapear after the reset :-( )
    Unfortunately iTunes created a new back-up of my iPad at the end of this reset procedure (i.e. it is a back-up of an empty ipad).
    Now I would like to re-install and configure my iPad based on a back-up couple weeks ago.
    If I open Time Machine, what do I need to do find and use this particular older iPad-back-up for reinstalling my ipad?
    Thank you.

    Have you checked that the older backup isn't still in iTunes? If you have checked, and it's not there, see below.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C:
    ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. A folder should open. Restore the contents of the folder from a backup. Relaunch iTunes.

  • I have no folder for firefox in application support... where can I find the stored passwords from my time machine back up!!?

    Everywhere I look it says I should have a folder for Firefox in library/applicationsupport/ BUT I don't have one! I'm looking to restore passwords from a time machine back up but there's no Firefox folder so I don't where to look. I even did a fresh install of Firefox on my mac and even then it never created a Firefox folder in library/applicationsupport/... they must be store somewhere in my back up...!?

    Hello kamilr, check also in :
    ~/Library/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/<profile folder>
    The tilde character (~) refers to the current user's Home folder, so ~/Library is the /Macintosh HD/Users/<username>/Library folder.
    note that in mac 10.7 and above, the ~/Library folder is hidden by default, see : http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders#Mac_OS_X
    when you find the file seek for '''key3.db''' and '''signons.sqlite''' files.
    Your passwords are stored in two different files, both of which are required:
    '''key3.db''' - This file stores your key database for your passwords. To transfer your saved passwords, you must copy this file along with the following file.
    '''signons.sqlite''' - Saved passwords
    thank you

  • How can I omit FCPX Render Files from a Time Machine backup?

    I want to be able to add my Final Cut Projects and Events folders to Time Machine, but annoyingly Apple have decided to put a Render Files folder within each and every Events folder.
    Is there a way of moving the folders to a different location on the hard drive, such as a Caches folder? Or is there some way of telling Time Machine to ignore folders containing the words "Render Files" (using some kind of script perhaps)?

    Backups For FCP works like Pro Versioner, only backs up project files, not the media.
    CCC will work over networks.  I have it running on enterprise systems for my consulting clients.  It is a fully professional level backup solution.  TimeMachine is a hobbiest, end user app, and doesn't have the control and flexiblity as CCC.
    TimeMachine backsup ever few minutes, when things change, and eats up processor resources constantly.  CCC can be scheduled.  So many advantages of CCC over TimeMachine.  One is professional, one is hobbiest, that is basically it.

    My iphone has some water damage and has not yet been able to display anything (though the phone itself still works).  I would like to find out from iTunes when I last synced the iPhone -- is there a place I can go to get this info?
    Thanks!

    Yes you can find out in iTunes the last date you ran a backup.  Plug the iPhone in..Right click on your device and click "Restore from Backup" . You will get a popup that tells you your last sync date.

  • Where can I find my Airport passwords in my Time Machine backup?

    Hi,
    I have reinstalled Mountain Lion. Now I found the folder in my Time Capsul where the keycahins are saved. (Library->kechains) I only need the passwords for WiFi Internet access. Which exact data do I need to restore?

    One thing that catches my eye is the path name
