Had to reset my Mail now I can't see old messages anymore. How do I retrieve them from my files?

My Mail suddenly stopped downloading mail from my sbcglobal (yahoo) account. I followed the suggestions found in another thread here. Essentially I copied the Library/Mail folder to my desktop, removed the plist file to my desktop, then reset my account. Mail now downloads from the server but I cannot retrieve the messages that were already in my inbox before I followed this process. Can anyone tell me how to get them?

You might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it.
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
(For info you've posted in the Using iPad forum.)

Yes. Reinstall iTunes. If that is the point at which you stopped trying the support suggestions then it makes sense to me, that you move on to the next suggestion and if reinstalling iTunes is the next suggestion, so be it.
However .... I too have issues that arise out of the blue with my iPad being recognized in iTunes and what I always do and it eventually works is to quit iTunes, restart my MacBook, and reboot my iPad.
Rebooting the iPad is the last thing that I do and only if I have no success with quitting iTunes and restarting the Mac. It may take a few tries to work, but if you are that dead set against reinstalling iTunes, then give it a try.

Backed up my songs from itunes onto a hard drive and now my playlists in itunes are gone! How do I retrieve them back to the way it was before?

Help! My husband backed up my songs from itunes onto a hard drive and now my playlists in itunes are gone from my library! How do I retrieve them back to the way it was before?

Hello Nataroo007,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
There is a file in the iTunes library folder that contains your playlist information is the iTunes Library.xml file.
Try and find the file, usually located in one of these locations depending on your OS:
Operating System
Default location of iTunes Folder
Mac OS X
/Users/[your username]/Music
Microsoft Windows XP
\Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\My Music\
Microsoft Windows Vista
\Users\[your username]\Music\
Microsoft Windows 7
\Users\[your username]\My Music\
Then you can import this file to your iTunes Library like this:
1. Choose File > Library > Import Playlist.
2. Navigate to the "iTunes Library.xml" file
3. Windows users: Click Open.
If your Podcasts list in iTunes is empty after following these steps, learn how to add them back into iTunes.

I had to reset my browser a few weeks ago & now I can't get imikimi.com to download the full editor to work. It says I'm missing a plugin but when I click to download it doesn't. How do I fix it?

This is what is in my plugins. What am I looking for? I am using Firefox 21.0 for Windows Vista.

I had to re-install firefox recently and lost all my bookmarks and passwords, how do I retrieve them? I have already saved them as an html file on my desktop.

I've been having problems with my computer, and had to delete Firefox entirely several times. I don't believe it was your browser that was the problem, though now I have lost all my saved bookmarks. I did export them to IE as an HTML file, which I still have on my desktop. I am now in the painful process of remembering and resetting passwords that Firefox remembered when I had it originally installed (I am back at ground zero with the browser now).

Please read this article about restoring bookmarks:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Lost_bookmarks
As far as your passwords are concerned, I don't think there's anything you can do. But for the future, you can use the following add-ons to avoid any future loss:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2848/
or
http://www.xmarks.com/
Both are good.
And a simple way to import your bookmarks (since you already saved it on your desktop as html) is:
Bookmarks / Organized Bookmarks / Import and Export
Good luck.

HT4859 I went to manage storage and at the bottom of that page I pushed the button to clear back up. Now I don't see any apps. How do I get them back?

I pushed the button where it says clear back up or somethiing like that and mown t apps are gone how do I get them back?

You still double-click the home button to open the multitasking bar, but with iOS 7 you now drag or swipe the app 'screen' up and off the top of the screen :

My hard drive crashed so I had to reinstall iTunes. Now I can't see the full versions of the songs I purchased recently in iTunes.

I can see the preview versions of the songs in my account but I don'[t know how to restore the full versions. Thanks for any advice.

Depending on which country you are in, then you might be able to re-download the music from iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 . Otherwise have you not got a backup of your purchases on, for example, an external drive or DVD that you can copy back onto your computer and add into iTunes ?

I started my Turbo tax forms when I had 3 - had to do an extension - now I can't get into my account - how do I reload 3- I have 5 now?

I am getting the error - system not compatible on my turbo tax acct. States Mozilla needs to be 3 (Vista 7, 32 bit operating system). Can I reload 3 without loosing 5, or do I have to remove 5 to reload 3 - and can I reload 3?

You'll need to restore your iPad to factory settings.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Unfortunately, because you never synced it, you won't have a backup, so you'll have to re-add apps that were purchased, but if you recall the Apple ID and password used, iCloud 'remembers' all of them, and you can add them back. Also, the Apple ID is tied to any other purchases you made from iTunes. This happens.
BUT, consider the passcode for the iPad like your ATM card PIN number. Protect and remember it.

I upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7 and now I can't find my bookmarks. How do I get them back?

My new computer has Windows 7 on it. My old computer had Windows XP. I have my old hard drive from my old computer, but even when I connect it to my new computer, I can't find my Firefox bookmarks. I can only find my Internet Explorer favorites. Any idea how I can retrieve my bookmarks?

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
"Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders.<br />
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
Go to: Control Panel > Folder Options > "View" tab > under "Hidden files and folders", select "Show hidden files and folders"
You may want to uncheck the box "Hide extensions for known file types" to see the file extensions of all files
XP:
* x:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
Vista/Windows 7:
* x:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\

How can I see what, when and how much has been downloaded from the net?

I use a satellite internet service which limits me to only 200Mb of downloads in a 24 hr period. Should I go over, I am "locked out" of my internet service for the next 24 hr period. Lately I have been locked out without thinking I have downloaded anything. I am wondering if there is a place on the computer I can look to give me an idea what has been downloaded and when? I did change the Apple software update to not "automatically update important files" but I am wondering are there any other programs or anything the system may be downloading automatically without me knowing and what can be done to rectify it?
Thanks

Thanks for the thoughts. Here is some more for consideration. I was locked out yesterday and when I finally got out of "lock up" today, I went to my satellite internet provider's site to see how much and when it was downloaded. I booted my machine at about 10 AM yesterday and according to their site between 10 and 11 AM I downloaded 188MB of data. Then from 11 AM to Noon they said I downloaded another 28MB which then resulted in my being locked out of the internet until noon today. During that time I was on the net, I initiated no downloading from any site nor did I have any video streaming. What is frustrating is I have no idea what is being downloaded or how much. Most other days of the week it appears that downloaded material is 75Mb or less and I can remember generating the downloads.Looking at their site, the "downloading" of mystery material begins quickly after booting the computer which leads me to believe, as Kappy was saying, this is likely something like Apple Software updater or such set to "Download on Startup". I guess I'm not quite sure how to check to see what is set to "Download on Startup" and how to make sure nothing downloads at startup unless approved by me. Any thoughts?

TS4036 I had my ipad replaced and I restored it, but some how lost my contacts in the pad ,how do I retrieve them from icloud?

I have converted 6 documents to pdf form. How do I get them from adobe files to Wordpress on the same computer? I can't seem to copy and paste. and I can't find the adobe pdf documents in my files when I search via wordpress.

I posted the question and I need help. I am new to posting and to discussions. I gather that posting is only for answers.

Hi student4ever,
You're in the right place to ask questions, and get answers!
When you convert a file to PDF using the Acrobat.com online service, they are automatically stored in your Acrobat.com account at https://cloud.acrobat.com/files.
To download a file to your computer, select the file in the Files list, and then click Download at the top top of the list. Your files will be downloaded to the Downloads folder on your computer.
Best,
Sara
