Deleted files and photos

If deleted files and photos even from the bin, is it possible in anyway to take them back without any cost issues?
Thanks

It may be possible to recover some erased ones, but you must quit using the Computer immediately, because the OS will think it can write to those freed blocks on the disk.

  • I deleted all my photos and videos and then delete the deleted files but the photo app is still taking up 12 GB of space and I have no room for new stuff.  How can I clear the memory space used by my deleted videos and photos?

  • I accidentally deleted my photos; how do I download my files and photos from Adobe Online Storage?

    I accidentally deleted my photos; how do I download my files and photos from Adobe Online Storage?

    So i think backup online the the most effective way to protect data loss!
    If you found you have lost your important files, you can just download it from the online server.
    And if you delete your files from hard disk and cannot download it from online storage, there is still another way-data recovery software to recover your lost files.

  • I transferred files and photos from MacBook to iMac via ethernet cable and using migration assistant. However every time I transferred, it created a separate user and it transferred all files and photos again and again. So now I have 3 users accounts ?

    I transferred files and photos from MacBook to iMac via ethernet cable and using migration assistant. However every time I transferred, it created a separate user and it transferred all files and photos again and again. So now I have 3 users accounts with all files and photos saved 3 times on same iMac !! Any idea how to avoid this ?

    Yes, you ran into a very understandable problem.
    When you use Migration Assistant, it cannot over-write the account that you happen to be using at the time. Upon migrating accounts, it will tell you that it is going to create a new one, but that message is easy to miss.
    If you have three identical accounts, log in to the account you want to keep, and delete the redundant ones in System Preferences > Users & Groups.
    Now that you know, the easiest way to migrate accounts is to use Setup Assistant when you first get a new Mac. That eliminates any possibility for this to occur, but most people are so eager to use their new Mac that they elect to migrate later.
    That's OK too, but in that case you would want to create a temporary account whose sole purpose is to run Migration Assistant so that you may migrate your old one with an identical name. Be sure to give the new account Administrator privileges. When that finishes you would log in to the newly migrated account, and delete the temporary account.

  • My Mac Book Pro is giving me a message that the start up disk is full, how do I delete files, and what files should I be deleting

    My Mac Book Pro is giving me a message that the start up disk is full, how do I delete files, and what files should I be deleting

    There are several nice programs that can help you figure out what's on your computer - OmniDiskSweep, WhatSize, and DaisyDisk are the three I like. If you've had your computer for a while - and especially if this isn't your first Mac and you've been migrating from one computer to another, one of these programs can help you find files you didn't know your computer still had. For example, when I was trying to shed files to fit int a 256GB SSD, I discovered I had nearly 1GB of files in my Application Support folder belonging to programs I no longer used.
    Other than that, your easy choice are music, video, and photos. They tend to be the big files. A movie will generally be at least 1.25GB, for example.

    The simplest way, is to erase the drive and reinstall the OS X.

    Other than that, you will have to trash all your User files, delete all the photos from within iPhoto and then empty the trash.

  • How do I delete music and photos from my iCloud account? I've read below that you can't. Really? Is that correct?

    How do I delete music and photos from my iCloud account? I've read that you can't. Really? Is that true?

    You can delete photo stream photos from iCloud by just deleting them on your iPod.  My photo stream photos are automatically deleted from iCloud after 30 days anyway.  Just so you are aware, deleting photo stream photos doesn't free up any space in your account as they don't use your personal iCloud account storage.
    You can't delete music from iCloud because the music isn't stored in your account; it's stored in the iTunes store.  What you are seeing are links to your previously purchased music in the iTuens store, allowing you to redownload them if you want to.  You can't remove anything from your list of previous purchases.  If you don't want to see these "iTunes in the Cloud" purchases in your song list, go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and turn off Music under Show All.  LIke photo stream photos, this music doesn't use any of your personal iCloud account storage.

  • How can I back up my files and photos on my iPhone to my iMac?

    How can I back up my files and photos on my iPhone to my iMac?

    You can back up the iPhone to your Mac with iTunes.
    Make sure, your iTunes version is up to date. Connect your iPhone to an USB port and launch iTunes.
    See this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    If you want a separate folder with your photos, download the camera roll contents by connecting the iPhone to USB. You emac will see it as camera and you can download the photos using Image Capture to a folder on your Mac, or using iPhoto or Aperture to your photo library.

  • Will I loose all my files and photos when I upgrade from 10.5.8 to Snow leopard

    I have purchased Mac OS X Snow Leopard from the Mac store and I am ready to install it. Will I loose all my files and photos when I install it ?  I am upgrading from 10.5.8 to 10.6.3 Snow leopard.

    Before embarking on a major OS upgrade, it would be wise, advisable and very prudent if you backup your current system to an external connected and Mac formatted Flash drive OR externally connected USB, Thunderbolt or FireWire 800, Mac formatted hard drive. Then, use either OS X Time Machine app to backup your entire system to the external drive OR purchase, install and use a data cloning app, like CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper, to make an exact and bootable copy (clone) of your entire Mac's internal hard drive. This step is really needed in case something goes wrong with the install of the new OS or you simply do not like the new OS, you have a very easy way/procedure to return your Mac to its former working state.

    No, there are no gurantees. The capabilitty exists to retrive deleted data from an iPhone, but like many things in life it is not 100% successful all the time. Be careful, there are a lot of scam artists out there. They take your money & retrive nothing. This guy is one of the best in the business, but he does not work for people in the private sector. Perhaps he can recommend a service to you. But, as already pointed out, you're looking at thousands of dollars out of pocket whether these folks are successful or not:

  • How do I get my files and photos off my old computer

    I have an old Mac G4 and just got a new iMac. I have them both hooked up to my Bell Turbo Hub But they do not see each other so that I can transfer files and photos off the old computer. Help

    If you have a Thunderbolt to Firewire cable you vpcan start the G4 in target disk mode and connect it directly to your new iMac. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1661
    Or you can connect them via either firewire/thunderbolt or ethernet and use Migration Assistant http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4889

  • I have a 2tb time capsule wondering how to store a lot of my files and photos on it to free up some space on my hard drive on my iMac

    i have a 2tb time capsule wondering how to store a lot of my files and photos on it to free up some space on my hard drive on my iMac

    For iMac please use USB or even better a FW800 or if you can afford it, a thunderbolt drive.. on your 2011 Mac.
    Time Capsule is not a suitable place to store your files.
    1. You will have no backup.
    2. TC cannot back itself up, nor can Time Machine backup network drives.
    3. Apple says specifically of iphoto not to store library on network drive.
    iphoto network no no.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1198
    It's recommended that you store your iPhoto library on a locally mounted hard drive. Storing your iPhoto library on a network share can lead to poor performance, data corruption, or data loss.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6692100
    4. Other libraries may not corrupt but will run very slowly. iTunes for example.
    Please purchase the fastest drive out of the external ports you have available.. usb2 although the slowest is still faster than TC over gigabit. It is also more reliable. TC are not a noted reliable storage drive. It is designed as a backup location for TM files.

  • I have recently changed to an iMac from a Windows PC. How do I delete files and format the memory card in my helmet cam?

    I have recently changed to an iMac from a Windows PC. How do I delete files and reformat the memory card in my helmetcam?

    If you return the memory card to the helmetcam, it may choose to reformat it before use; back to some FAT-16 or FAT-32 format many of these third-party cards and cameras use. Unless you were going to use it for Mac OS X and format it with HFS+ or in a partition map for Mac data, etc.
    If not, the easiest way to reformat the card may have been in the camera itself. I've formatted several kinds of camera cards, drives, USB flash drive, and others. The means varies with the intended purpose. Sometimes the default is the best; since it is platform neutral if the device is seen by both players.
    Good luck & happy computing!
