I wish I could locate the apple document about backups, I know there's an official one but I can't find it. If you have a .mac account you can use the "backup" program to do that. The other way is third party programs that will backup any updated files to a remote computer on your network, or another drive. Probably the easiest though is just burning the files you need to save to DVDs or CDs. Someone else could probably explain this a whole lot better than me though, so give it a try.
Oh! And just out of curiocity, how did the program not work? Did you get an error, or was the folder just too far gone to get back? If the lisence you purchaced is transferable, you might just want to sell it to someone here or on ebay. Good luck.

Somehow I have deleted a very important folder. It isn't in my Trash and is nowhere to be found. Ive even taken it into the Apple store and the guy has said that it is there but he can't retrieve it. Can it be retrieved?

Hi

There is recovery software (do a Google search). When you delete something, the directory pointer is erased, not the data. HOWEVER, the system will use any available free space. If the data was not overwritten, you MIGHT be able to recover it. I have not used recovery software, so I have no recommendation.

MacBook Pro "restore" I lost very important documents - please help!

Hello! I recently did a restore on my MacBook Pro- that was not smart as I have now lost a ton of documents and I really need those back. I should have icloud and I have time machine. Please tell me if those documents are out there and how I can retrieve them? I would be happy to go back to the status I was a few days ago before the restore.
I did the restore due to some internet connection issues.
Are the docuements in my time machine? Sorry!! I dont speak Mac very well!
Thank you for the advice.

Hi RHarney,
If you backed up your documents on an external hard drive via time machine then all you have to do is hookup your external hard drive and turn your time machine on.
Just follow these steps on this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akfp3MtyFCY

Hey ashvinee,
Sorry to hear you're having difficulty with your contacts. We have a few articles that could resolve your issue.
I would start here:
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Contacts
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3998
Recovering iCloud or MobileMe data from iTunes backups for an iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4108
This second article applies to you if:
You want to recover your Contacts, Calendars, and Bookmarks from an iTunes iOS device backup made while using iCloud or MobileMe to update your Contacts, Calendars, and Bookmarks on your iOS device.
You have created backups in iTunes, and you do not have or are unable to restore from an iCloud Backup. Learn more about how to restore from an iCloud Backup.
You have lost data from the web, your iOS device, and all other synchronized clients, and you have no other usable backups to recover from.
Cheers,
David

I Am no expert for sure but my Mac does auto save on most everything I do. If you've saved previous versions you might be able to find a previous version of the document. I'd look for previous versions. Hope an expert helps you. Good luck.

How can I delete the All Imported folder on my ipad (imported from an SD card)

When traveling, I import all of the pictures I take each day into the photos app to view the day's results, and provide a back up copy. I then return the SD card to my camera for the next day's use. In this way, at the end of my trip, I have all of my photos on both my SD card (or cards) and also my ipad. When I return home, I load all of my photos into Photoshop on my PC for storage and editing.
I then wish to delete the entire All Imported folder from my ipad. I have not found a way to do this. I could theoretically individually select each photo and then delete them all. This is impractical, however, since I have thousands of pictures on my ipad by the ende of the trip.
I seems to me that there must be a way to delete the entire imported folder, but I can't find it. I can delete folders that I manually create using the edit function, but this doesn't work for the imported folders.
I haven't been able to find a solution on the community or using google. Any help will be appreciated.

The iPhoto App can select all of the photos in the All Imported folder and delete them.

I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

I deleted a very important pages file from my iPad and I need it back

I deleted a very important pages file from my iPad and I need it back pronto! I just updated my iPad without a computer and it had the file there. I need to know how to get back the file very quickly.
thx in advance

Thne unfortunately, your document is gone. You can restore lost or deleted documents from backups if you have backups - and as long as the backup contains the document - but if you did not copy the file to your computer - or backup the iPad, the document is gone.
You really should start backup up your iPad. You can sign up for a free 5GB iCloud account right on the iPad and then you can use iCloud for backing up. You can do it right on the iPad.

Hi,
>>A CHAR datatype and VARCHAR2 datatype are stored identically (eg: the word 'WORD' stored in a CHAR(4) and a varchar2(4) consume exactly the same amount of space on disk, both have leading byte counts).
Ok, but on the other hands:
SGMS@ORACLE10> create table x (name char(10), name2 varchar2(10));
Table created.
SGMS@ORACLE10> insert into x values ('hello','hello');
1 row created.
SGMS@ORACLE10> commit;
Commit complete.
SGMS@ORACLE10> select vsize(name),vsize(name2) from x;
VSIZE(NAME) VSIZE(NAME2)
10 5
SGMS@ORACLE10> select dump(name),dump(name2) from x;
DUMP(NAME) DUMP(NAME2)

IMEI number is no use.
If you can't track it using find my phone.
Then report the lost to the local authority and your phone carrier.
change your passwords.

On belhalf of my fellow volunteers, the answer is, "We'll try our best."
My advice is to try not to treat this like it is a paid service provided by compensated professionals. Ask nicely and one of the nice folks here might take some time out of their weekend to offer advice.
