How can i restore a previously owned mac book air?

i have a macbook air that i bought used but it was not restored. how can i restore it?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
First, open  > About this Mac, and see Version. If it's 10.8, you have to purchase Mountain Lion to be able to reinstall OS X, so open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion.
Then, to restore the computer to default settings, follow these steps:
1. Press Command and R keys while your Mac is starting to start into OS X Recovery, and open Disk Utility.
2. Choose Macintosh HD on the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the disk.
3. Close Disk Utility and reinstall OS X.
If it's 10.7, call Apple to purchase OS X Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
If it's 10.6 or 10.5, you should have the Mac OS X DVDs that came with the Mac, so you need an external optical drive or another computer with Remote Disc to reinstall OS X

How can I restore contacts from my iCloud account?

I need to restore my contacts that were backed up to iCloud on 11/21/12. How can I do that?

Your contacts are not included in the iCloud backup, they are synced to your iCloud account. If your contacts are not in your iCloud account on icloud.com when you check with your computer you won't be able to recover them from icloud.

How can I restore contacts from Backup Assistant

My contact list has been corrupted. I have been using Backup Assistant for some time and want to restore my contacts from a previous backup.
Verizon seems to have changed BA since the last time I used it and the only function seems to be to take my corrupted contact list from my phone and store it. Any suggestions on recovering my non-corrupted contact list?

Here is a reply from a VW CS regarding the same question a few months back:
Click this link Backup Assistant (sign in) to check if contacts are available. You may sync directly from the site, by simply clicking sync on the right hand side (above contacts).
You may also try to sync by adding your G-mail account to the your device then go to Settings > Accounts & Sync > Ensure Sync is on for G-mail account. You may also select Auto-sync.
For additional information on how to restore contacts, click the link below:

How can I restore contacts from a previous back up?

I accidentally erased my contacts from my iPhone. I can see previous backups on my iTunes preferences. But the only option is to delete them. Does anyone know how to restore one of those backups?

The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer regularly. have you failed to sync your contacts to your computer?

How can I link contacts (e.g.. Facebook and Exchange) in Mountain Lions Contact App

After I installed ML and setted everthing up, everthing is fine. On my iPhone and iPad as well as on the Mac the contacts are there. Alle contacts with same Name / Email are linked. But some, where name is not 100% matching are not. On iPhone and iPad i can link them manually but this linking is not synced between the devices. Well anyway, this is not a problem. Then i tried to link the respective contacts in Contact App on the Mac. There seems to be no option to do that. How can I link contacts on the Mac?
Thx
Jan

Do you think it's acceptable if I simply put the contact email address without a link so users can just look at it and then copy and paste into their own web client/browser?
You have to be a masochist to consciously publish an email address on a site anymore. In a matter of weeks or months, you will get hit with so much spam mail, you won't want to open your inbox.
Use a form-to-email-processing script in PHP, ASP or whatever programming language your server supports. Find one that hides your email address and has good spam prevention built-in. It may take you an entire day to set-up your first contact form but it's worth it. Otherwise, use a service. See links below:

i have deleted all contacts in icloud but still have them on my iphone (which is backed up as well to iTunes) how can i restore the iphone data to the iCloud so it will resend it to my mac book and iPad? I have switched my iphone to airplane mode so it is not connected to the internet and so icloud can not wipe it at the moment.
thanks roy

There's a menu choice (I think under "Files") that lets you sync purchased items on a device back to itunes. Look for that.
iCloud does not store music. If you want to do that you'd have to subscribe to itunes Match, but to get music to the match servers, you need the music in the itunes library on your computer.

HT3529 I have lost all data on my iphone and the back-up is too old. How can I restore iMessage chats on my iPhone 4? I have all the chats on my Mac, but there seems to be no sync function from Mac to iphone. Please advice.

Hi,
I have lost all data on my iphone by mistake. I needed to restore the phone and I didnt realize my back-up was 1yr old, and now the phone is restored and I've got a year old contact list and iMessage chat history. Luckily my iMessage on the Mac is still valid and has all the chat history. My question is how can I restore iMessage chats on my iPhone 4 from my Mac? I have all the chat history on my Mac, but there seems to be no sync function from Mac to iphone. Please advice.

If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

Don't worry! Everything should be back to normal if you follow these steps.

How can I restore my contacts, when I have two phpnes on one account? In icloud are the contacts of the first phone, and in my computer is the back up of my second phone

How can I restore my comtacts from pc back up when I do have two phones with one account?the i cloud has contacts from one of the phones, and the pc back up from the other?

Hi Silky-Milky!
If I understand your question correctly, you are attempting to merge your contacts from your previous phone's backup into your iCloud account, then go back to using your new phone as normal, with the new merged database of contacts. I have an article that can tell you how to do exactly that:
Recovering iCloud or MobileMe data from iTunes backups for an iOS device

Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

How can I restore an old background on a mac?

Today I created a collage on CollageIt Pro and made it my backround. Then when i restarted my computer, it was gone! How can i restore, or find the wallpaper i had before? (i do have a time machine back up but i could not find the picture). And it seems to be that the collage is nowhere to be found.

Try Recent Items.
Click your Apple menu icon . From the drop down menu click Recent Items
Or, try searching using Spotlight. Click the Spotlight icon (magnifying glass) top right corner of your screen.
