What application did you use to back up your files?
What are your files backed up to?
You say you reinstalled windows, do you mean you ran a recovery or did you load a new version of windows?

Yes, an iCloud backup can only be restored to another iOS device. However, if your iPad is already setup, you'll have to erase it first, before you'll be able to apply this backup to it: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings.

How can i grep "wrong" dirs/files [SOLVED]

im tryin to write a little bash line or script.
it should manage to list all contents recursively of a directory and grep and print all files that have diffrent permissions as specified, same to dirs.
so i started off, no idea how
first thing is
ls -laR ....... ive absolutley no idea how i can start off with scripts like that. dunno where to search or find a good/easy solution to things like that.
plz help me out with my bad scripting knowledge

hey thx!
yay, this is goin right direction.
although a
ls -laR | grep -v -rw-r--r--
doesn't work :?:
and would be cool, if i can define: "leave dirctories out" or "leave files out"
s.th. like
ls -laR | grep -v --without-dirs -rw-r--r--
edit: ok, leaving out directories woulb be with grep-option "-d skip" right?
edit2: want to archive s.th. like this
ls -laR /mnt/media/Musik/ | grep -d skip -v "-rw-r--r--"
but grep then doesnt work bcoz first thing is a "-" . How to go round this :S

Don't you just love changes in interfaces?
I found the answer to my question.
When you attach a device (iPhone, iPad) to your Mac, in iTunes 12 in appears as a tiny icon in the second "row" of the iTunes display. Click the icon and the familiar iTunes display for the device appears. From there, on the Summary screen, you can see the dates of the backups of the device (iCloud and backup to the computer). You can also use the button to backup to the computer.

How can I do automatic backup of Firefox bookmarks? What is the name of the bookmarks file and where is it probably located in Windows?

I want to back up Firefox bookmarks automatically. I know that Firefox has manual bookmark export and bookmark. Can it be automatic? If not I will use backup software to do it, but I need to know the name of the bookmark file and where it is located on my hard drive. .

Firefox stores both bookmarks and browsing history in the file '''places.sqlite''' in the Firefox profile folder . On Windows 7, the Firefox profile folder location is something like:
C:\Users\"your username"\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\'''xxxxxxxx.default''' but this location is hidden by default. See [[Profiles]] for help finding the profile folder.
Firefox bookmarks are already backed up automatically.
The bookmark backups are stored as dated .json files in the Firefox profile folder, under the subfolder, '''bookmarkbackups'''. You can restore a bookmark backup file using the information here:
*[[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
For additional information, see:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox

Either of these should help.

Or search 'disk size' in the App Store.
Be carefull with what you delete & have a backup BEFORE you start, you may also want to reboot to try to free any memory that may have been written to disk.

How can I make a backup of my iWeb page, How can I make a backup of my iWeb page

How can I make a backup of my iWeb page? Is iWeb also disappearing on June 30?

Here are some Apple help sheets about backing up your files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1813
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1105
And I found this one written by an independant guy very thorough and helpful:
http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWeb_Backup_retrieve.html
iWeb is not going away, but I would be skeptical about how much longer Apple keeps it around.
If you are looking for a new place to host your website, I use and would recommend Little Oak (www.littleoak.net). They are a Mac hosting company, and are even offering a discount right now for iWeb users (http://www.thewhir.com/web-hosting-news/web-hosting-sales-and-promos-roundup-jun e-29-2012)

How can I quickly view pdf files like I can do with Windows Picture and Fax viewer for jpg files?

How can I quickly view pdf files like I can do with Windows Picture and Fax viewer for jpg files? I need to look at several thousand PDF files. It takes too long to open each one individually. The only thing I could think of is combining them into large groups and then using the Navigation index. But I like the way windows Picture and Fax Viewer does it because you can keep the files separate. Combining PDFs causes loss of individual file names. That would be a problem since I do need to have the individual file names.

Windows Picture and Fax Viewer is a DLL and is started via a rundll32.exe call and can't be set as an application to handle images in Firefox 3 and later versions.
Try to set Windows Picture and Fax Viewer as the default viewer in Windows, then it should be listed automatically in the Mozilla Firefox Browse dialog.
