Changed name of mailbox and now subfolders are gone. Help please?

New switcher.
I set up 4 mail accounts(using mail 2.05) to handle 4 email accounts on my mac.
I had to migrate all info from PC(Outlook 2004), one folder at a time using IMAP server(drag-drop-sync). Took forever but once synced down to my mac I just moved folders to the correct location and everything was very cool.
EX: Mail arrives in 'Account A' then gets sorted via my rules to go into subfolder 1, etc...
Today i decided I didn't like the name of my primary mail folder and changed it from 'Auction' to 'Auction Cleints'. Now all my subfolder mail is gone.
By changing the folder name did some kind "path to mail folders" get lost for the subfolders? How does one fix this.
I used the IMAP system to move the mail, but am back to just going the POP route from now on, is the plan.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Jim
I-mac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3) it's white

OK...so now I find REBUILD MAIL BOX fixes this whole issue(for now) Man I love this mac! Anyway...still interested in what happened and if there is a "Rebuild ALL amilbox" option I am missing. Thanks.

HT6541 How do I get my pictures back from the update? They were photos synced from my previous phone and now they are gone. Please help!

i Just got an iPhone and I did not have icloud or iTunes yet. My photos from my previous phone were synced to my new phone and after the update they all disappeared. Please help me recover my pictures

If all you did was sync your phone, and if you haven't synced again since this happened, you can restore your phone from the backup that was created at the beginning of the sync process (camera roll photos are included in the backup). If you have synced again since this happened this backup has already been overwritten and your photos are lost. Also, if you restored your phone from the backup of your iPod, rather than just synced, then your photos are lost too.
If you have an intact backup that contains these photos, do the following:
Without connecting your phone, open iTunes on your computer and go to Preferences. On the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically".
Connect your phone to your computer, right-click on the name of your phone when it appears in iTunes on the left sidebar and select Restore from Backup, choose your most recent backup to restore from.
When complete, you can go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and re-enable automatic syncing.

I have an iphone and my daughter has an ipod. She has all my contacts showing up on her ipod. I deleted them and now they are gone from both. is there any way of retreiving this deleted information.

I have an iphone and my daughter has an ipod. She has all my contacts showing up on her ipod. I deleted them and now they are gone from both. is there any way of retreiving this deleted information.

When you share an iCloud account, any data you sync with the account is merged, and any actions you take on one device (such as deleteing contacts) is synced to all other devices sharing the account. To avoid this, each person's device(s) should have a separate iCloud account with a separate ID. (You can continue to share your iTunes account; it does not need to have the same ID as the one used for iCloud.)
To create separate icloud accounts, decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account. On the one that will be changing accounts, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting the other person's contacts from your account, and vice versa).
As for recovering the deleted contacts, you can try restoring her phone from her most recent backup. This may recover the contacts, however it often doesn't. Restoring to an iCloud backup has to be done in the initial setup process. If she have any data on your phone now that is not in the backup that she wants to save she will need to do that first. Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup. Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

Our students have entered passcodes when downloading ios 7 update and now ipads are locked, help!

Our students have entered passcodes when downloading ios 7 update and now ipads are locked, help!

If the iPad is running iOS 7 and the kid set up Find My IPad, then you can't restore it without the kid's Apple ID and password. The Activation Lock is a feature that people whined and whined to get, and is causing exactly the sort of problems many of us predicted when people were clamoring for it. If you can't get the kid's Apple ID, you'll have to call Apple Support and ask if they have any sort of workaround. My guess is that they'll have to replace the iPad, but they may have a solution they don't talk about publicly.
This won't help for iPads currently locked for which you can't get the Apple ID, but if before you give out iPads to your students you go into the Restrictions and disallow changes to the accounts, they can't then turn in Find My iPad. Or you can set up Find My iPad yourselves to your own accounts and then lock the Restrictions so they can't set iCloud up to an account to which you don't have the Apple ID.
Regards.

HT204053 My daughter and me use the same cloud ID and to buy songs and now all her contacts ended up on my new iphone 5 and I manually erased all from my phone and now they are gone from her phone. How does she get back her contacts?

My daughter and me use the same cloud and apple id to buy songs in the past. I got first iphone 5 and after trying to set up itunes to phone I ended up with all my daughters contacts from her iphone on my iphone. I then deleted them from my phone one by one and now they are gone from her phone as well. How does she get them back on hers and what happen???? Help with cloud!

That's what happens when you share the same iCloud account. First, migrate his phone to a different iCloud account using a different ID (you can continue to share the same ID for other services such as iTunes if you want). To do this, on his phone save any photo stream photos that he wants to keep to his camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If he are syncing notes with iCloud that he wants to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to him so he can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in his new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; this won't effect your phone), provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create his new account and choose Merge to upload the data. After doing this, he can go to icloud.com and safely delete your data from his new account.
Then, if your contacts were on your phone when you last backed it up to iCloud, you can restore them by following Winston Churchill's user tip here: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841. This involves turning off your wifi after your phone restarts during the restore process, then saving the contacts on your phone and deleting them from iCloud prior to turning your wifi back on and allowing the restore process to finish. You can turn off your wifi either by pulling the cord out of the WAN port in your wifi router, or by simply unplugging it.

How do I find my bookmarks and tagged pages? I update to newest Firefox and now they are gone- it looks like a completely new Firefox. What do I do?

I update to newest Firefox and now they are gone- it looks like a completely new Firefox. What do I do? There is nothing in my toolbar, or history, or bookmarks. I have also none of my old slides or whatever they are called when I open a new tab. HELP!

You can check for problems with the <b>places.sqlite</b> database file in the Firefox profile folder.

You should get your keyboard checked as it's repeating on a lot of keys and makes you look silly.
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

Where did my photos go? I started to move a 25GB directory of all my photos to the creative cloud and now they are gone!

where did my photos go? I started to move a 25GB directory of all my photos to the creative cloud and now they are gone! The directory on my hard drive i gone and they are not in the cloud?

The iCloud Photo Stream only stores up to 1000 photos for thirty days. If you have more that 1000 photos or photos nearing the 30-day mark, you should export them to another device.

My Firefox has been crashing every day sometimes several times a day. I have emailed your staff back many times looking for a reason for the crashed without any response.

AND NOW THEY ARE GONE AND I CANNOT GET THEM BACK!! YOU NEED TO HELP ME RESTORE THAT OPEN WINDOWS FOR ME. IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT!! I NEED SOME DESPERATE HELP NOW!!
Thanks,
Nick

Nick, sorry to hear about that. I'm not sure where you are sending the emails, but if you use the form to submit your crash information, that goes into a database for review by the developers instead of coming to the support volunteers here.
Did you try the History > Restore Previous Session command? Firefox sometimes saves form data in the session history. This data may age out, so you should use that menu item as soon as possible.
Going forward, consider installing the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lazarus-form-recovery/ Lazarus: Form Recovery] extension if you are filling long forms and Firefox is unstable.
With respect to the crashes, there are many possible reasons for Firefox to crash. Have you reviewed the help articles for diagnosis? For example: [[Firefox crashes - Troubleshoot, prevent and get help fixing crashes]].

HT204150 My iphone contacts got synced with my daughter's ipod contacts and she deleted my contacts and now they are gone from my iphone. How do I recover my contacts?

My iphone contacts got synced with my daughter's ipod contacts and she deleted my contacts and now they are gone from my iphone. How do I recover my contacts?

First, your daughter needs her own iCloud account, otherwise her ipod will sync will all your data (email, calendars, contacts...). If you have a backup or a copy on your computer, you could turn off iCloud syncing on your iphone, then restore from your contacts via iTunes. After you get a new account for daughter, you can then turn on iCloud.

HELP!!! I moved my videos to an external HD and now they are gone.

I moved two movies to an external HD, and archived them. Now all the files are gone, I tried using Disc Doctor but it couldn't find the files. I'm hoping its because the demo version has a size limit of 10GB, and the files were closer to 26GB each.
I am going to be boiled alive if I can't produce these files.
Or, I'm going to get a lot of dirty looks and people will say bad things behind my back, but its still bad.

I moved the files to the external drive I use for Time Machine, there is a feature in iMovie where you can archive the original DV files. After I moved the files I created the archives, and now the only files on the drive are related to Time Machine.
I've tried 2 different programs for data recovery and nothing can find them.
