How can i arrange deleted files by deletion date/time?

Ok, so i deleted a bunch of files (in an effort to get rid of some old left over files from unused apps).. Anyway, i deleted some files that need to get back.
I am not sure what their exact names or types are (they were in various folder and had different names) and i did not access them or modify them, but i do know the exact time and date i deleted them and i want to basically undo that action (i.e. i want to recover every file i deleted within a certain 5 minute time period).
I tried to find a way to arrange the files deleted by time of deletion and did not find out how -- can anyone tell me how this can be done please ??

Hello,
Ever since I've upgraded from Snow Leopard to Maverick OS, whenever I rearrange the files as date created or date added, it organizes them into subfolders of today, yesterday, and past 7 days so on, and rearranged the files within the same date by name, which is very annoying. Is there a way to fix this?
When you have the finder window open in column view....
From the Finder Menu Bar, View > Show View Options >
Arrange By: None
Sort by:Date Created (or Date Added)
Additionally, at the bottom, click, "Use as defaults"
Subquestion, not as important. Ever since the update I cannot go forward or backward on finder with three finger side swipe.
Not quite clear on this question, but I would double check System Preferences > Trackpad (or Mouse) as a preliminary step.

How can I unlock numerous files at the same time (i.e. photos) so I can make changes (rotate etc)?

Im using Lion on a MacBook Pro 15in (just under two years old) and I would like to know if I can lock numerous photo files at the same time so I can make changes to them. At the moment when I select an entire folder to go through and make changes, ie rotate in Preview, I am told with each photo that I have to unlock it. I am going through photos I took of archival material and have nearly 5000 photos to adjust and make changes to. This small step is taking up a lot of time.
I realise there will probably be a common 'sense' answer to this but it alludes me at the moment so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

How can I get specific files back from my Time Machine backup?

I wanted to make a fresh install on my MacBook Pro, in order to only have Java 8 instead of any older Java versions. So far so good. But now I want to get specific files/libraries from my external backup (USB):
One Parallels Virtual Machine
My old mail
My iPhoto Library
I don't need any settings for these, since I can easily configure them again.
I already used the Migration Assistent to restore all apps.
How can I get specific data back from the backup without restoring all stuff that I don't want anymore?

You will want to add the same User account(s) which hold the data you want to restore. So you will want to add a User account of 'Hans or hans'. Check your Time Machine back up drive to see how the User account is labeled (Hans or hans). Navigate to the Users folder and see how it's labeled.
You can then use your Time Machine back up drive and navigate to the User Home folder to copy its data over (e.g. contents from Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, etc.). Repeat for other Users.

How can I arrange my 'purchased' songs by date on my iPad?

On my Mac they can be arranged in many different ways, but on my new iPad Air2 they appear in random order and can't seemed to be changed.
Also, my iPad shows all of my songs purchased and other standard playlists but doesn't show my own personal playlists, can these be sent across the cloud to save room on the iPad?
Many thanks, Nick

They will only be where you put them.
You buy one download only.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything on the new computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases

How can I remove dropdown calendar menu from date/time field.

I set up a javascript calculation based on the input of a date field. As long as the user enters the date manually the script works fine. If user attempts to select date by drop down menu then script will not work. How can I remove the calendar feature from the Date field?

You may have to wire custom script to get you what you need. That would probably work on 'exit' event.
Just you give you better Idea here is some thing I have on a date field. If user types his own date instead of picking from calendar this code checks whether it is valid date or not and returns to the same field either they enter valid date or clear the field.
This is FormCalc script. You may get the idea how this works and make it work for you using the same logic either in FormCalc or JavaScript.

How can I restore deleted data from ICloud?

Hi,
I just lost my IPhone 4S 32GB. Using find my IPhone app in iCloud, realised that, because of being shut down immediately after loosing, there will be no chance to get it back. So I choosed to remote delete all data from that device.
Although one day later I still had all my data in iCloud, after another two days everything was lost! After another day, I was able to see only one contact in my contact list, as well as calender activities up to one month before loosing the phone.
As sync was activated also with my outlook, I have there an empty database as well.
Mails are also missing, from all the servers (even if for one of them IMAP was the setting), also for the last month.
Please HELP me get all the info back. Thanks.

An iCloud account doesn't store multiple copies of a single note,
This can appear to happen if you are saving them to multiple locations
Notes can be saved to
       Email accounts
       iCloud
       iPhone or device
You most likely lost access to one of the sources of Notes.
Make sure that each of the accounts that can use notes has them turned on.
Best of Luck

If you erased your hard drive and you have no back up, your library is lost. If you have your music on an iPod, it may be recoverable with third-party software.

How can I rename many files at the same time?

Hello!
I have a bunch of PDF files (2 thousand at least) that I need to transfer to another Mac but since it's running OS 9.2 it won't accept the files because the names are too long, therefore, I need a quick way to change all such files into a shorter name but maintaining some of the serial numbers each file name has (i.e., not changing all to the same name but just taking off the first or last 5 characters for example), is there a way to do this sort of thing with OS 10.3.9 or 10.5.2?
Best!
Danny

Look at this shareware. http://www.jonn8.com/ntf/ It's a batch renaming app, but I'm not sure it will do exactly what you want. However, it does have a 7 day free trial.
If you do a Google serach using +batch file rename mac+ you can review a lot more apps.

How can i download many file from server one times.

Hi,
I want to create the service to download multi-files from web server one time
from browser. It seems no way to do it. My soulition is compressing the files
to zip before download it. The problem is that when the user uncompresses the
files,full path of downloaded files are setted. Look like this:
/usr/tmp/test/file1
/usr/tmp/test/file2
/usr/tmp/test/file3
My question is :
1. Is there any way not to specify the full path of a file when
add the file to zip.
Here is the source
BufferedInputStream bis
= new BufferedInputStream(
new FileInputStream( file ) );
//if not full path . can is works?????
ZipEntry target = new ZipEntry( file.getPath() );
// zos is ZipOutputStream
zos.putNextEntry( target );
int c;
while( ( c = bis.read() ) != EOF ) {
zos.write( (byte)c );
2. Is there any way to get and change the current work directory of my server ?
Please help!!

If i use file.getName(). I will lost the struct of path.
I means that,if i compress the list of files:
/usr/tmp/test1/file1
/usr/tmp/test1/file2
/usr/tmp/test2/file3
can i keep the part of path's strcut. (usr/tmp/../.. etc.)
I tried to do as this:
target = new ZipEntry( file.getPath.substring(1));
an error be reported when uncompressed the zip file.
error message:
warning [zt000002.zip]: extra 28 bytes at beginning or within Zip file (attempting to process anyway)
Error in file #1: bad Zip file offset (Error local header signature not found): 0
(attempting to re-compensate)

Why? can i set "any" entry name??

How can I arrange the Open window by Date Created?

You've already seen my question. The Open window does show Date Modified, but nothing I've tried will allow me to change it or to add Date Created as a column.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben

Right-Click on any column head and check off the columns you want included.
There are also many other arrangement options, just like in the Finder. The options discussed in this article also apply to Open and Save dialogs.

How can I bulk delete songs from the playlist, if original file could not be found.

I deleted the original files from the Library iTines. The songs are still in the playlist. How can I bulk delete songs from the playlist, if original file could not be found. Thank.

Take a look at my FindTracks script. Download it and test it out on a few tracks first. Use the No option first time around to manually confirm each path that it wants to fix so you can see how it works. When you're happy it does what you want select a larger group of tracks to process automatically.

I deleted all my emails from inbox and trash, but the mail "file" has 2GB. How can I permantely delete this information from my iphone4?

How can I permantely delete email information from my iphone4?
I deleted all my emails from inbox and trash, but the Mail "file" still has 2GB...

Does anyone have an answer to this problem? It's been 4 or 5 days now and iCloud still says I have 0kb of 5GB available, and 6.1GB of mail on iCloud. I guess that's better than yesterday when it said I had 8.3GB of mail. Does anyone know if it simply takes Apple a week to actually empty a mailbox?
thanks in advance, hopefully tomorrow it says I have only 4GB of non-existent mail and I can start using it again...
