Desktop Link deleted all files

I opened Link on my desktop (PC) today and found all pictures and video deleted. Just wondering how this is possible considering I havent been into Link in over 4 weeks?
My BB Z10 was sent away to be fixed 3 weeks ago however I didnt think this would result in all desktop Link files being erased as well? Any suggestions or methods to retrieve those files?

Clicking on the free download button will initiate the UndeletePlus installation process. This trial version is fully functional for determining whether a file can be recovered. To restore the file, the full version must be purchased.
The above is what the web page states under the Download button at the bottom, so maybe worth a try, I hope it helps. If your phone deleted the files in the process of being fixed it might not help.

Hey hkfoolman,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
Go into BlackBerry Link and click on the BlackBerry and then click on Options. Make sure you have Music, Pictures, Videos and Documents checkmarked for synchronization. Once these are checked, try to remove the files.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.

Can I delete all files and users (including admin account) without re-installing SL?

I have a 1st generation Macbook Air, running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Just bought myself a new MBA, want to sell the old one (privately, not soliciting here).
The original install disks were Leopard. I bought a family pack SL and upgraded the MBA at that point. Earlier this year I sold my old Mac Mini (when I upgraded) and included the SL install disks with that sale (stupid of me).
Now I want to sell the old MBA. Ideally, I'd have a clean install on SL on it, minus all previous files and accounts. I've done that before when selling old computers, reformatted / erased the HD, then reinstalled the OS. But I don't have the SL disk anymore, and I don't really want to pay for it just to prep this notebook for sale.
AFAICT, my options are:
wipe the HD and reinstall Leopard (the only OSX disks I have). Whoever buys it from me would need to upgrade to SL themselves, and from there to Lion if they want.
somehow try to delete all files and users without touching the current install of SL. I'm not terribly worried about security of what little information is on the MBA (nothing important to me), so I don't mind trashing files and then emptying trash instead of wiping the HD block by block.
Any ideas for how to do #2? I can trash all files/folders under /user, uninstall all applications and delete their folders from Library, uninstall all browsers except Safari and wipe the history from that...
Is there other stuff I should be deleting? plist files, maybe? I'm leery of messing around too much and disrupting the install of the underlying OS.
Can I also delete the admin account (or rename it "admin" with a generic default password?)?
Any other suggestions? Thanks.

Trashing files you have created is relatively easy. Getting rid of an account is a bit harder. Trashing the .plist files, etc., that may contain personal info is a lot harder, and there is always the risk that you will miss something.
Best, and easiest, and customary, is to do option #1 - wipe the drive and re-install the original OS from the original disk set. The receiver of the machine can then decide which OS they want to upgrade it to, and purchse accordingly.
The original disk set for that machine should be included with it when it is sold.

Time capsule intern.1TB hard drive.How can I delete all files

Hello How can I delete all files from my timecapsule.
I have connectet it with Wifi or ethernet. It is not possible.
I have made a reset.
I have tried it often.
Please help
Greetings from Vienna

If you open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utiltiies > AirPort Utility and click Manual Setup, are you able to access the settings for the Time Capsule?
Or, does AirPort Utility scan for the Time Capsule and then not find it?

Can i delete ALL files in directory ?

i create a upload test using FileReference & PHP.
In this scenario user upload files to http server.
Now how can i delete all files in /files/uploads folder in AS3
AS3 Code:
req = new URLRequest();
req.url = ( stage.loaderInfo.parameters.f )? stage.loaderInfo.parameters.f : "http://www.website.com/test/upload.php";
uploadFile = new FileReference();
select_btn.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, browse );
uploadFile.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, complete_func );
uploadFile.addEventListener( DataEvent.UPLOAD_COMPLETE_DATA, show_message );
function browse( e:MouseEvent )
          filefilters = [new FileFilter('Images',"*.jpg;*.png;*.gif")];
          uploadFile.browse( filefilters );
function complete_func( e:Event )
          trace( 'complete !' );
function show_message(e:DataEvent)
if (e.data == 'ok')
          label_txt.text = 'The file has been uploaded.';
else if ( e.data == 'error')
          label_txt.text = 'The file could not be uploaded.';
PHP Code:
<?php
$uploads_dir = './files/uploads';
if( $_FILES['Filedata']['error'] == 0 ){
          if( move_uploaded_file( $_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'], $uploads_dir.$_FILES['Filedata']['name'] ) ){
                    echo 'ok';
                    exit();
echo 'error';
exit();
?>

You need call another PHP file
<?php
   $directory = './files/uploads';
   getDirectoryList ($directory);
   //This function find all the files in the directory
   function getDirectoryList ($directory)
     // create an array to hold directory list
     $results = array();
     // create a handler for the directory
     $handler = opendir($directory);
     // open directory and walk through the filenames
     while ($file = readdir($handler)) {
       // if file isn't this directory or its parent, add it to the results
       if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
    //$results[] = $file;
     // Delete Files
    $filename = $file;
unlink($filename); //this delete a file
     // tidy up: close the handler
     closedir($handler);
?>

Why won't preview let me delete all files (instead of all but one)

In all OSX versions up to snow leopard in preview there was the option to select all open items and move the files to the trash. For some reason unknown to me, in 10.8.5 mountain lion that option no longer exists. Now preview lets me delete all files except one. If you have 2 images open you can move 1 to the trash. If you have 99 open you can move 98 to trash and if you have 1 open, you cannot move it to trash. Is there some code available where I can undo this restriction?

Do you also have them on another computer, iPad or iPhone, IF you do then it may be syncing them back

HT1923 This article contains the only thing that worked for me. I also had to sign out of iCloud and uninstall it. Then I had to delete all files and folders from all of those applications that were under Program Files, Program Files x86, and Users.

This article contains the only thing that worked for me. I also had to sign out of iCloud and uninstall it. Then I had to delete all files and folders from all of those applications that were under Program Files, Program Files x86, Program Data and Users. My iPhone 4 will now sync with iTunes both in its USB-connected mini dock and over Wi-Fi. It's unfortunate (negligent programming on the part of Apple?) that the upgrade to iTunes 11 did not remove all of those files as part of the upgrade process.

I am having the same issue....Same address for years - same as USPS - I tried 5 times (3 macs and 2 iPhones) and now i have 5 CHARGES for 1.00 each on my credit card. I took the credit card info off so they don't charge me anymore. How can they charge me yet still not allow me to download free updates and say I have an invalid address? I'm sure I will spend weeks or months trying to get a credit out of these incompetent idiots.

I do not recommend reformatting your harddrive and reloading your software. This is a Windows thing. On an older mac it may be difficult to find all your software again.
Best to have greater than 2gig of free space. Many posters to these forums state that you need much more free space: 5 gig to 10 gig or 10 percent of you hd size.

Be careful when deleting files. A lot of people have trashed their system when deleting things. Place things in trash. Reboot & run your applications. Empty trash.
Go after large files that you have created & know what they are. Do not delete small files that are in a folder you do not know what the folder is for. Anything that is less than a megabyte is a small file these days.

Buy an external firewire harddrive.
For a PPC computer, I recommend a firewire drive.
Has everything interface:
FireWire 800/400 + USB2, + eSATA 'Quad Interface'
save a little money interface:
FireWire 400 + USB 2.0
This web page lists both external harddrive types. You may need to scroll to the right to see both.

Install or Reinstall Mavericks or Mountain Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
OS X Mavericks- Erase and reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Erase and reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Erase and reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
because it is three times faster than wireless.

I previously had PS CS5 Trial installed but removed it using both Control Panel Programs and deleting all files from the CS5 directory on Program Files. I then installed a purchased product from Adobe disc using the serial number on the case. But when I try to launch it, I get a screen headed Photoshop CS5 Extended Trial. It asks for the serial number and says that my trial has expired. It rejects the serial number from the Adobe case saying "This Serial Number is not valid for this product". It thinks that I still have the expired Trial Version installed. How do I convince it (the program) that the Trial Version is long gone and the currently installed product was installed with a valid and accepted serial number????

Let me know how it goes. Go into your Adobe account and register your serial number asap.

That way, should you lose it or you need support, it is on record that it's yours and you can fetch your s/n it from anywhere.
There are too may sad stories here, where people forgot and the box is buried or lost.
