Getting a backed up file list

Hello,
I notice that time machine backs up a lot more files than I have modified since the last backup. Is there way to get a list of which files have been backed up? I can't find a log anywhere. I'm curious to see what is going on.
Thanks.

If you place your finger inbetween the search bar at the top and the keyboard at the bottom and slide your finder downwards it should hide the keyboard and make the icons at the bottom reappear

You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
For other items you will have to get them from where you originally got them. The backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps, music, synced photos.

Getting (incrementally) backed up files from external HD to new mac

Hi everyone,
The hard drive on my ibook died. I was running Tiger, and regularly backed up all the files on my home folder to an external hard drive. I use the software that came with the computer (Backup) to do this.
Yesterday, I purchased a MacBook. When I attach my external hard drive and try to open my backed up files, all I see is one full backup folder and many, many incremental backups. I understand, on a conceptual level, what incremental backups are. But I have no idea how to use them to retrieve my files.
So, my question is this: how do I retrieve files that were backed up to an external hard drive (from my old computer) and transfer them to the internal HD on my new computer? Migration assistant is absolutely no help here since I can't access the internal HD on my old, dead ibook.
Many thanks for any tips,
RB

If you used Backup to create the backup, then use it to restore the files.

Elements 10 - Get Photos Back in Files

I changed the name of some of my files and moved some pictures in another program (Picasa). Now the Photoshop files are empty. When I try to get them again I get the following message - "Nothing was imported. The files or folders selected to import ...or the files are already in this catalog. How do I get my pictures back in the files in Photoshop?

Once you import photos into Photoshop Elements, you can't manage them in another application.
To get the photos back, you could, one-by-one, use File->Reconnect and point PSE to the proper photo; alternatively you could "un-rename" the photos in Windows. Or you could delete them from PSE (losing whatever tags and captions and notes and albums and stacks and related information is in PSE); and then try importing the renamed photos.

How to get tree structure from file list?

I have got following rows from my select query presenting a folder structure:
PATH
/KING/JONES/SCOTT
/KING/JONES/SCOTT/ADAMS
/KING/JONES/FORD
/KING/JONES/FORD/SMITH
/KING/BLAKE
/KING/BLAKE/ALLEN
/KING/BLAKE/WARD
/KING/BLAKE/MARTIN
/KING/BLAKE/TURNER
/KING/BLAKE/JAMES
/KING/CLARK
/KING/CLARK/MILLER
/PALO/TEMP
On base of this data I need to build tree in my application by effecient way.
Therefore i would like to achieve data (SELECT with two columns) as bellow:
FOLDER        PARENTFOLDER
KING     NULL
JONES   KING
SCOTT KING/JONES
ADAMS KING/JONES/SCOTT
FORD     KING/JONES
SMITH    KING/JONES/FORD
BLAKE    KING
ALLEN    KING/BLAKE
WARD    KING/BLAKE
MARTIN KING/BLAKE
TURNER KING/BLAKE
JAMES    KING/BLAKE
CLARK     KING
MILLER    KING/CLARK
PALO      NULL
TEMP      PALOIs this possible to do it on SQL level(not PL SQL)?
Thanks

Perhaps something like this?

I removed an app from my "Purchases" tab list view - how do I get it back?

Hi all
Went into app store, clicked on "Purchases" tab and it displays a list of my Purchased appstore items. I was having an issue with Growl (going from non-AppStore to App Store version) and needed to re-install it.
I inadvertently clicked on the "x" button next to Growl in my Purchase History and now it is gone.
Is there any way to get it back in the list? I know I can install/re-install Growl from the application page in App Store.
thanks
Peter

Found the answer in another thread (kind of), but I don't know how to link to or credit the post that pointed me to the approach of looking in my iTunes Account section (sorry). Poster was @staticshokx
The trick is to go to "View My Account" from menu
Login to your Apple Store account
Under the Heading "iTunes in the Cloud" there is a blue text link "View Hidden Purchases"
Click on it, and then you can un-hide any apps that you have previously hidden from your purchase hsitory.
Hope this helps others.
I am running Mac OSX 10.7.2 with iTunes 10.5.1
thanks

Bb10 not working and how to restore back up files

Hi all,
My z10 keeps restarting itself up to a point where only the blackberry name appears and nothing more. Luckily enough i had a recent back up of my phone. However i tried to reinstall the software, it doesn't work, changed the battery still not working so i decided to make an upgrade to iPhone. I have been trying on how to get my back up files to my iPhone now but i couldn't. Any idea please. I need help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Unless your files were stored on your media card, it's going to be tough. If you can get your BlackBerry to turn on, you can visit www.deviceswitch.com from each phone's browser to transfer files. If you can't get your phone to turn on, you'd be out of luck.
Cheers.

Yes, it indeed boggles the mind. I'm of course referring to the fact that your post concerns Verizon Wireless products and services. This forum is dedicated exclusively to Verizon Communications services. As you probably know, Verizon Wireless and Verizon Communications operate as separate companies.
If you need help for a Verizon wireless product or service, it's best to direct questions to the Verizon Wireless forums. You can reach them by clicking on "Wireless" (either here or at the top of the page).
Good luck and I sincerely hope you get your issue resolved.

After getting the dreaded gray/blue screen, I tried to run disk repair on the internal disk. I got an error message saying "Disk Utility can't repair this disk and restore your backed-up files. The volume Macintosh HD could not be verified completely

Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it. See below for how to clone a drive.
     1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
         with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
         After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
         a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
     2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
         button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
         and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
         (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
         username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
         Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
         install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
         Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
You may be able to backup your data if you have an erased external drive you can use. Before you do the above but after you have opened Disk Utility you can try to clone your drive:
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
       it to the Destination entry field.
5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
      the Source entry field.
6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
Now this will only work if the drive is accessible and can be cloned by Disk Utility. Otherwise, you would need to access your drive from another Mac that you can connect via Firewire - Target Disk Mode.

How do I get back my files and setting after re-installing Lion?

After I deleted the wrong file, I had to re-install Lion. After I went through the setup none of my file were on the desktop and the settings had all defaulted. After I looked under the User folder, I noticed there are 2 different users listed, ajoep3 and my_full_name.my_full_name contains all the files, and prseumably setting that I had before the re-install.
How do I get those back? It won't allow me sign in under any other login.

I have a backup, through Time Machine, but I didn't use that. I had files that weren't backed up on Time Machine, so I re-installed Lion from the App store. I hoped it would just replace the system files I had deleted. It's hard to explain, but the user names, ajoep3 and my_full_name are tied together.
When I open the users folder it shows, ajoep with a house next to it, my_full_name and Shared. When I log in or out it only shows ajoep3. my_full_name isn't list in the system preferences>>users or any where else.

HT4914 Once I deleted my music files can I get them back via I cloud? I have Itunes match on.

Once I deleted my music files can I get them back via I cloud? I have Itunes match on.

I actually deleted my backup :-) That's the problem. But thanks.
I've managed to get some back but via a slightly different method.
Because the files weren't there, when I deleted them from my library they actually disappeared from the list.... So I created a new library (backed up my original one) and then synched that with Match so that all the files appeared. I'm just going through the ones I'm missing clicking 'download' and then when they're all back on my hard drive I'll revert to the previous Library which will hopefully pick up all of the recovered files.
Bingo!

Deleted my music files to make room on hard drive. How do I get them back with iTunes Match now?

I ran out of room and since I paid for iTunes Match I thought I could delete my files but still have the music. Now the luttle clouds are gone from my library and when I try to play a song it tells me it can't find the file. How do I get the clouds back and the option to re-download just what I want?
