HELP I accidentally deleted a layer style

I know it was a dumb error, but I deleted the high drop shadow layer style. How do I get this back?! Any help would be much appreciated o.O
Thanks!

If you're lucky, all you need to do is to delete mediaDatabase.db3. On a Mac, it’s in <your hard drive>Library>Application Support>Adobe >Photoshop Elements>9.0>Locale>en_US (or your location).
In Windows 7 or Vista, it’s in C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\9.0\Locale\en_us (or your location). For XP, it’s C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\9.0\Locale\en_US (or your location).
The next time you start PSE, don't do anything till the thumbnails reappear in the panels.

Online Help opens when I open layer styles and won't stop!

Help! Sometimes when I open a layer style dialogue box, suddenly my browser takes over and opens one or two or even three windows/tabs with Photoshop.com. If I try to go back to Photoshop, or right click and minimize it, three more tabs open with Photoshop.com. Why is this happening???!?!
(Last night after a long time trying to resolve it, even by going to task manager and minimizing, I found that by holding in ALT and clicking on Photoshop, I was able to go back into it without launching a barrage of internet tabs, as ALT seemed to change the layer style dialoge options some. However, now that I know how to resolve it temporarily, I still don't know WHY this is happening. Any clues?)

It may be corrupt preferences.
Try resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.

You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.
A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.

Help, I accidentally deleted the parent tab set.

I accidentally deleted the parent tab set from my application, and cannot find anyway to create a new one. Has anyone had this problem?
Oracle - 9.04R2
ApEx - 2.2.0
Browser - Firefox
Thanks,
Michelle

Hi Scott,
unfortunately I made a stupid thing, being too smart and updating the FLOWS_020200.wwv_SOMETHING_tabs record, modifying parent tab of the problematic tab to main. Doing that caused the complete application to disappear from the Application builder. I guess some checksums in APEX internal objects were modified and that is the result.
Fortunately I had a recent export of an application, so I didn't loose too much. That also means that I can not help myself with "as of" export.
Could you please just tell if recreating parent tabs is possible by "clicking through apex screens" or should there be some hacking used.

Can anyone help me find my lost layer styles and photo effects in the Effects Panel?

I am using the trial version of Photoshop Elements 9. I downloaded and tried to install a glitter style. When I went back to my workspace I had no layer styles or photo effects in the Effects panel....not one. The filters are the only ones there now. What have I done?

Quit the editor, then go to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\9.0\Locale\en_US (or your location) and delete mediaDatabase.db3. When you restart the editor, give it time to rebuild the panel contents before you try to use PSE.

Help Please - Accidentally Deleted Private Folder

Please could someone help.
I have accidentally deleted the Private folder in the root of the HD
Now OSX will not boot.
The folder is sitting in my Trash folder and I would like from the Boot CD Terminal to copy back from the trash to the Macintosh HD/ location
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Not quite: If MimUK's account shortname is (for example): mimuk
then it would be within that account's Trash, namely, you'll have to (yes) boot from another volume (not sure this will work booted from CD, but it might), *mount the drive in read+write mode*
ie (possibly requiring sudo, depending on circumstances):
sudo mount -uw /Volumes/nameOfTheDriveInQuestion
sudo mv /Users/mimuk/.Trash/private /Volumes/nameOfTheDriveInQuestion/
Moral of this story: don't make hidden folders visible for reasons just such as this
And in any case, don't delete something unless you know full well what it's for.

Help! Accidentally deleted Apple id, can't restore iPad

Help! When trying to change the apple id on icloud, I accidentally deleted my sister's apple id, to which my ipad 2 was linked. I have since created my own account, and tried to restore the ipad, but it won't let me because it asks for the password of the previous "owner" of the ipad, and I can't access it because it no longer exists. I am not from the US, and thus can't call to get help.
Please help me!

Apps are forever tied to the Apple ID that was used to purchase/download them originally. So they will always require that ID to update.
Why did your old Id become unusable? If it was because the email is no longer functional, you can go to appleid.apple.com to update it, and keep your aple ID functional with a new email address attached to it.

HELP! Accidentally Deleted Run!

I've started training for a half marathon & have been using my Nike+ iPod to track runs. I finally got around to calibrating my ipod, & in doing so, I accidentally deleted my last run,which was also my longest run. Help!! How, if possible, do I recover my deleted run? Please help!!

You will need to root your phone and by doing so you will delete the pictures, now, were the photos stored on the internal storage or SD card, if the later then you are out of luck, unless someone has another method
you can at least connect your phone to a PC > go to computer > xperia Z1 Compact > DCIM > thumbnails, you might be able to recover at least some of the pictures

Start by throwing away that program that eliminates languages. Then, get a complete backup. Then, perform an Archive and Install, and you will be fine.

Help! Accidentally deleted my phone # from iMessage

Hello
I accidentally deleted my phone number from iMessage and now it only shows my email address. I have re entered my number in my Apple profile and no luck. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? I'm new to the iPad but this has been a nightmare. Thank you!

If the backup of your old phone is no longer in iCloud, there is no way to recover it.

HELP! Accidentally deleted 'wishlist' playlist

Help! accidentally deleted to dos

hello, i accidentally deleted some to dos and cant get them back
i did make time machine backups though but dont know how to use them to get back to an old ical state. i didnt make an ical backup unfortunately

heiner kruse,
First of all, make a backup of your current iCal data. iCal>File>Back up iCal...
Quit iCal, and then enter Time Machine at the time that you still had those To Do's. Find the yourusername/Library/Calendars folder, click on Action Icon, select "Restore Calendars To..." and choose yourusername/Library/ Folder. You should be asked if you want to replace the folder, which is what you want to do.
If you made other calendar entries between the selected backup time, and today they will be lost. Only you can decide which is more important, the To Do's or the calendar entries.
Good Luck.

Help! Accidentally deleted my Windows 8 partition. Can I recover it?

Hi all,
I have a bit of a problem.
While I was trying deleting/formatting a USB stick connected to my rMBP, I accidentally selected the windows partition on my HDD instead of the USB. I then preceded to rename and click "erase," just before realising what I'd done!
As you can imagine, I was pretty annoyed with myself, but I hoped that I was mistaken and booting into windows would would work as normal... This didn't happen. Is there anything I can do to get back to 'the old days' and recover my Windows instalation/partition?
Any help you can give will be greately appreciated.
Thanks.

If you had sensitive data on that partition, then you'll have to make the decision of how much money it's worth to get it all back via recovery software or a recovery service like OnTrack. If all that was on there was Windows 8 and some programs you can easily reload (i.e. your only cost is your time), then just reload it like you did originally through the BootCamp wizard. If this is the case, consider it a learning experience and move on. I once deleted the Microsoft User Data folder from my Documents folder thinking (What's this doing here...) lol. You can imagine how surprised I was when I started Outlook and nothing was there. I was like... SOB!

Help! Accidentally deleted effects (Bevels), etc. PSE 8 (Mac)

The header says it all. I accidentally (ok, make it STUPIDLY) deleted most of my bevels. Is there any way to get them back? A reinstall of PSE 8 for Mac?
If that will work, can I install over the old installation, or is it necessary to unininstall, then reinstall?
Any help will be much appreciated

Barbara,
Thanks. Your suggestion was spot on. I had seen this solution listed elsewhere for Windows. I tried finding the file using spotlight, but I guess its a hidden file and i could't find it. With your advice, I did. I deleted the file, restarted PSE8, and VOILA!
Many thanks for your good advice, and timely response.
Regards

Help. Accidentally deleted filevault sparsebundle image..

Hi all,
I did an incredibly stupid thing today. I went an deleted (dragged to the trash, but did not empty it) the filevault sparse bundle image in my user directory and went and shutdown my Macbook. After a reboot, I could not log in.
Is there a way to recover from this situation?
If you want to know how I got myself in this mess, I was trying to make space on my macbook and found a 44GB file. I didn't know what it was and just tried to drag it to the trash to see if anything bad would happen. After moving to trash, things seemed ok, so I shutdown the machine for a while. So that's how it happened. Now I'm kicking myself.
Thanks for any help.
Nik.

Hi VK,
Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I logged in as Root, opened a Terminal window and found the sparsebundle image sitting in /.Trashes. I just did a mv to move it back to my user directory. I was able to immediately log back on using my user id.
glad you've fixed it.
It was a good thing I didn't empty the trash after moving the image there.
actually you would not have been able to empty trash because the disk image was in use at the moment.
