Garage Band Crashed - any way to get recording back?

Hello. I just recorded a 50 min podcast and upon stopping recording, I got a Garage Band error box that said something to the effect of "2gb file size reached. File will be saved to this point." Then I clicked OK, but the program crashed.
1. Is there any way to retrieve recorded audio files in ANY way? I also edit with Final Cut and I know that even if that crashes, the video is still in capture scratch/render folders, even if the project isn't saved, so I'm hoping there's something I can retrieve for this recording.
2. Is there a way I can auto-save while recording? I've recorded 50+ 50-60 min podcasts now (only saving 10 episodes in a single project file) and never had this problem, so now I don't trust my Mac for future recordings after losing this.
Other project files I have saved are 4-5gb each, so I don't even understand this "2 gb" limit. FYI: I have 83 GB available on my Mac, so it's not a file-size issue.
Very frustrated and disappointed in my Mac. Any help is appreciated. Thanks much...

In short, right click your crashed project file, then select "Open Package Contents." Recorded audio is in .AIF files.
YAY! Thanks.

Is there any way to get record of all my applecare calls

I was wondering if there was any way to get record of all my applecare calls/repairs...I am interested in pursuing a replacement of my macbook pro, this will be my 4th repair (2nd in a month) and I have been on the phone with apple about 20-30 times in the past month...any suggestions are appreciated

You can probably look them up yourself here:
http://www.apple.com/support/repairstatus/
If that doesn't work, you can try calling Apple tech support and asking. They should be able to give you a list of case numbers, or calls/repairs on a given case number, for the serial number on your MBP. A Genius at an Apple Store could probably also look them up for you.

Also, is there any way to save a group or an open session and then restore it later?

History menu, if it was destroyed in the last session
then use "Restore Previous session:" and then restore all windows also from the history menu.
If done in this session try the restore all windows under the history menu.

I deleted contents from pages school report by accident. is there any way to get it back. I reopened the file and it is blank, I deleted the contents from a school report by accident. is there any way to get it back. I reopened the file and it is blank

I opened a file to print and by accident highlighted and deleted the content. Then in a panic I closed the file and now when I open it is blank. Is there any way to get it back. I have looked and can not see anyway. I dont have anything in my backup?

I'm not sure about older versions, but in Pages 3.x (OS X 10.9.x) select File > Revert To > Browse All Versions. Hopefully there will be an earlier version that you can "revert to".

Is there any way to get contacts back after them being deleted form iCloud?

My dad recently asked me to update his phone, so I plugged it into my computer to do so. For some reason just doing that resulted in his settings to change to have iCloud contact sync on. This resulted in our contacts syncing so his would show up on my phone and mine on his. He went on to delete all of my contacts from his phone, not realizing they were also being deleted on iCloud (therefore from my phone as well). I don't even understand why my contacts were not saved on my phone in the first place but all transfered to iCloud, but now they are gone from there as well. I tried restoring my phone from a backup on my computer a few weeks ago, however, this just restored everything else except for the contacts. So what I'm asking if there is any way to get contacts back that were ONLY on iCloud (because apparently apple doesn't realize saving something to a single place on the cloud isn't a good backup) but now are deleted. Does iCloud save this sort of information even after it is deleted?

The issue isn't that I need to restore the contacts from iCloud to my phone, it's that the contacts on my iCloud themselves have been deleted.
The contacts might be deleted from icloud.com, but if they were on your phone when you created your last backup, they can be restored from your backup by following the user tip. The backup is separate from the data you see on icloud.com.

Sorry no as you wipe the current data when you restore from your backup.

If the backup is corrupt, there is nothing that can be done.
For what reason did you choose to not copy the pictures off the device to a computer prior to attemping an update or whatever caused the need to restore? iPhones are not intended as sole storage of any media.

Deleted an Effect any way to get it back PSE 7

ive deleted the glow effect by accident, thinking it would remove the glow from the image....
is there any way to get this back?
thanks in advance

Hi,
You need to delete the ThumbDatabase.db3 file placed at C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\8.0 in Vista/Win 7 and
C:\documents and settings\all users\application support\adobe\photoshop elements\8.0 in XP after closing PSE
Relaunch Editor this will take sometime to launch as it will build the database again. This will bring back the effects deleted accidently from PSE.

You restored your iPhone with iTunes from the backup for your iPod Touch?
If so, photos/videos that were in your iPhone's Camera Roll should have been imported by your computer before doing this. You could then transfer these photos/videos back to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process.

If the photos were not backed up with a recent backup, there is NO way to retrieve them.

That doesn't sound like a wise thing to have done.
At this point having lost your software purchase, the quickest way will be to purchase and install it from the Mac App Store. It is not expensive and can then be installed on multiple Macs using the same Apple I.D.
