  • My contacts were all of a sudden deleted. Any ideas on how to get them back?

    I was on my iphone this morning, and i recieved a text from a friend. It was a phone number, not her contact name. I tturns out all of my contacts are deleted. Why did this happen and how can I get them back?

    Are you syncing contacts over the air with an Apple iCloud account or with another email account that supports the same?

  • Clips disappeared in iMovie - how to get them back?

    I've had a number of clips just disappear from my events in iMovie 9.0.8.
    In the Event Library, the thumbnail still shows, the sound plays, but there is no video.
    When I click on "Reveal in Finder", the source files shows but only as very small (e.g. 150KB). The clips which still work are all in the many MBs when I do the same and reveal in finder. The source files themselves don't play video (nor do they have sound), whereas the source files for clips which are still ok in iMovie will play just fine in QuickTime. What's even more mystifying is that when I go back in Time Machine, the source files for the missing clips never show up as large or playable, even though I know for certain that these clips worked in the past. I have not recently done any software/system upgrades, moved or deleted files or done anything unusual that I can think of.
    Any ideas? Has anyone seen this before?

    Your original media files in the finder are obviously too small and since they are the same on Time Machine copies, they must have been like this for some time.  If your earliest Time machine versions are too small I don't see any way of recovering them.
    Were they from a different source or imported in a different way from the clips that still work?

    Well, if you have not backed them up, they are gone.
    Next time, when you have important material in only one place, back it up.

  • I downloaded a cheap PDF editor and it converted all my PDFs to their software. Then when I deleted it, I cannot open them in the Adobe format any longer. Please let me know how to get them back!

    I downloaded a cheap PDF editor and it converted all my PDFs to their software. Then when I deleted it, I cannot open them in the Adobe format any longer. Please let me know how to get them back!

    It's important to understand that when this sort of thing happens files aren't "converted" at all.
    In Windows and Mac, there is just one app (program) that it run when you double click a type of file. There's an app for Word documents (Microsoft Word). There's an app for PDF files. So all that happened is that you installed an app which can open PDF files.
    Nothing changed in the files. You can still open them the traditional way if you forget double click - start the app, use Open from the File menu.

  • HT4927 all my pictures in iPhoto got deleted and i don't know how to get them back so could anyone help me with that ??

    all my pictures in iPhoto got deleted and i don't know how to get them back so could anyone help me with that ??

    We do need more information to help. Are the images gone from your iPhoto library, or is the iPhoto Library missing? How and when did this happen?
    If images are missing from the library: Did you check for hidden photos? Did you check the iPhoto Trash?
    If the pictures are still in the iPhoto Trash, open the Trash, select the images and and press the liitle arrow in the lower right corner - select "Put back".
    If the pictures are still in an "iPhoto" folder in the system Trash (with sub folders named by date), import these folders to your iPhoto library.
    Have you checked, if you have opened the correct iPhoto Library? Launch iPhoto with the options key held down, to select another Library.
    If the entire Library is missing, have you searched for ".photolibrary" with spotlight?
    Do have a backup?
    If none of these easy measures helps, report back with more details - your iPhoto version, and anything else that might be helpful to find out, what the problem is. Don't do anything that changes the contents of your hard drive for now.

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences, but not Bookmarks and history''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Notes disappearing off ipad  but see them in icloud how to get them back on ipad

    disappearing notes in notes app but see them in icloud
    i had 10 notes in my iOS5.1 ipad then I turned on icloud with notes
    all the notes went up to the notes folder on icloud mail plus some were duplicated on  icloud - than a day later I went to my notes app on the ipad to use them  and all were missing but 2 notes -- I can't figure out how to get them back on to the ipad under notes -  I saw lots of people having the same issue but no resolution to fix - can you give me any ideas  - I only have 2 devices   ipad and pc with icloud
    thanks marsha

    Hi Michael, thanks for replying. Yes, I meant the music videos. I want to keep on using Match but at the same time I want my music vids included as music. The alternative is to consider them a basic "movies" but it is just not it... It is also strange that I can not delete from the iPad a downloaded song from match without turning of Match on the iPad. Well, we´ll have to live with it.

  • Missing Templates in iphoto how to get them back?

    I'm using Macbook Pro with OS X 10.7.2 , i have iphoto version 9.2.1 (628) , Now when i use email in iphoto and i want to use the templates so they are missing can someone help me how to get them back?

    You'll need to reinstall iPhoto from the source it came from, i.e. the Software Install disk that came with your MBP or an iLife11 disk.  If the MPB came with Lion install you'll have to download iPhoto from the App Store.
    To reinstall iPhoto  you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder,
    Click to view full size
    Then install iPhoto and apply any needed updaters.
    I may be presching to the choir here but in Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    Do you mean that when you click the title browser, for example, nothing is there?
    Do you at least see several categories listed in the effects browser?
    First make sure that you have nothing typed into the search box (not even spaces).
    If you still see nothing, try this in order:
    1) Window->Revert to Original Layout
    2) Quit FCP X, delete preferences using Preference Manager (a free download from Digital Rebellion)
    3) Download FCS Remover, and use it to completely remove FCP X. This will NOT delete your content, just the application.
    4) Reinstall FCP X from the Mac App Store: log in with the same Apple ID that you used to buy FCP X, click on "Purchases", locate FCP X and click Install.

  • My iphone says I have 331 songs but only 139 can be played...where did the others go? How to get them back?

    The songs disappeared from two computers and are grayed in on my iphone...I cannot play 192 songs...how to get them back or how to delete them from my phone so I can start over?  I do not want icloud...I synced my phone to the computer and everything was fine for awhile...where did the songs go?

    Because it says it's incompatible when it can't be, I got hope. I get error messages all the time with my iPod and iPhone that it cannot sync and that 'this device is not capapble of connecting to iTunes' stuff. I literally forget that happened, plug it in again and it works, I later realize that iTunes made a mistake, they do that.

  • It appears my kid has erased my entire iTunes and iPhoto libraries.  Anyone know how to get them back?

    My kid has erased my entire iTunes and iPhoto libraries.  Does anyone know how to get them back?

    WIthout a backup of your data previously, they are all gone.
    The only option you have now is data recovery.
    You need to purchase, download, install and use a data recovery app like this.
    http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php
    You need to completely stop using your computer ASAP, at this point and just run the data recovery app and let it do its thing.
    Every moment that you keep regularly using your computer risks rewriting new data in the locations where your deleted data may still reside.
    A very expensive and time consuming lesson to be learned here.
    Purchase and connect up a large capacity external hard drive (a drive larger than your Mac's internal hard drive) preferably a hard drive that uses FireWire 400/800 connection and use a data cloning app like CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper to make yourself a exact, bootable copy of your Mac's internal drive to the new external hard drive.
    This will be your data backup drive.
