How can I retrieve photos and music I deleted "secure empty trash"?  accidentally?

I deleted downloads and accidentally it removed all my photos and music.
I retrieved all purchased music but not the rest.

If you secure erased it, it is gone. Incidentally, the system does not "accidentally" remove anything. You need to specifically select things to be deleted.

  • How do i retrieve photos and music ??? i broke my phone and instead of fixing it Apple have replaced it so i have had to start again. I have managed to get my contacts back. thanks

    hello, how do i get music and photos back on my phone please HELP !! x

    Past purchases can be downloaded again http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
    Other music should be on your computer and just sync it.  For information on how to sync music read this, this and this.  As to photos the photo stream is in the backup that you should have of your old phone.  Any other photos that you imported to the phone should be on your computer

  • TS4036 how do i backup photos and music from my computer to icloud

    How do I backup photos and music to icloud to download to my iphone4s or ipad.  Not having any luck transferring by direct connect

    You can redownload music purchased from iTunes as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.  Music from other sources can only be accessed from iCloud if you subscribe to iTunes Match.
    Photos can be transferred by putting them in a folder, then selecting the folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.  Or, you can transfer them over wifi by using an app like PhotoSync.  To stream them with iCloud, you have to set up iCloud on your computer as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html, enable photo stream, then add photos as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2606.

  • How do I share photos and music between different user accounts on the same macbook

    How do I share photos and music between different user accounts on the same Macbook? i.e. I want all to be able to access family photos when logged into their respective accounts. Same goes for the iTunes library. Hope this is possible...
    Thanks!

    To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
    To give others selective access to your iPhoto library, you have the option of using iCloud Photo Sharing, if the privacy implications don't bother you. The images will be stored temporarily on Apple servers.
    If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support articles linked below.
    iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
    iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
    There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.

  • I have 2 Macs - an iMac that holds my entire iPhoto library and a Mac Book Pro that I use to hold a subset of the main library - how can I transfer photos and their metadata from the main library of the iMac to my Mac Book?

    I have 2 Macs - an iMac which holds my main iPhoto library and a Mac Book Pro which holds a subset of the library. How can I transfer photos and their metadata from the main library to the smaller 1 on the Mac Book Pro?

    Link the two Macs together and use iPhoto Library Manager

  • How can I access photos and videos saved to the iCloud?

    How can I access photos and videos saved to the iCloud? I backed up my iphone to the Cloud but now the files are nowhere to be found.
    I had to reset all content and settings in order to troubleshoot an issue. Before I did this, I backed up the iphone to icloud. When I reprogrammed the phone, I had to set it up as a new device and individually sync apps and other items from itunes. But by doing this, I somehow lost some videos and can't seem to find where they would have been saved/backed up. Can anyone offer any guidance?

    You can't view photos and videos on icloud (except for shared photo stream pics).  iCloud merely sync photos between devices using the stream.  If you don't have photo stream turned on, then the only place photos in the camera roll are located are in a backup.  You would have to restore from the backup.  But be warned that many users have ended up losing their photos when performing a restore, for whatever reason. 
    What you should do in the future is always sync photos/videos to a computer for storage, don't leave them on a device or trust icloud to somehow store them.

    Can I backup photos and music to the icloud

    Hi linwood02,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    See these links for some good information about what's backed up by iCloud:
    iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12519
    Here’s what iCloud backs up:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and booksYour iCloud backup includes information about the content you have purchased, but not the purchased content itself. When you restore from an iCloud backup, your purchased content is automatically downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore based on iTunes in the Cloud availability by country. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the store.

    No, iCloud is not a storage device, try Dropbox or Sugarsync.

  • My iPhone 5S drowned in a rainstorm. How can I retrieve contacts and text messages from iCloud backup onto my iPad mini?

    My iPhone 5S drowned in a rainstorm. How can I retrieve contacts and text messages from iCloud backup onto my iPad mini? There are some contacts on the iPad already but nowhere near all of them. I need to re-enter the contacts manually into an iPhone 4 as it does not support iOS 8.

    Let me get this straight.....You lost your phone.  You never backed it up, either to your computer or to a cloud service.
    How in the world would you expect to get data back?

  • How can i remove videos and music that are not on my ipad mini but are still taking up space and are showing that they are there even after i've deleted them?

    how can i remove videos and music that have been deleted from the ipad but are still showing in settings as still being on the ipad?

    I believe that I have the same issue with iPad Mini with Retina Display, iOS 8.1. No matter which way I delete videos from my iPad, they will still show as "deleted", yet the space is not cleared up. I tried restore and then a full restore (clean setup as a new iPad) and it still does this to me. I can solve it by doing a restore each and every time I download a video and delete it. Rather frustrating. Has been a problem since day 1 of iOS 8. I'm yet to try the power+home button reset. It may very well work, but I am surprised that a "fresh setup" of an iPad didn't resolve it from ever occurring.

  • Updated to 7.0.2 and now some of my music has been removed and I can't find it, and music I deleted years ago has reappeared, and I can't delete it from icloud. My phone will also no longer sync with my computer.

    I updated to 7.0.2 and now some of my music has been removed and I can't find it, and music I deleted years ago has reappeared, and I can't delete it from icloud. My phone will also no longer sync with my computer. My phone has also been freezing regularly since I updated.

    The reason, I included the annotation that I'd upgraded my Itunes, (On my Computer) is B/C in many forums - the very first question, *HELPERS* ask, is. "Do you have the latest version of Itunes downloaded on your computer." I wanted to knock out any obvious replies.
    Now-  "DO YOU have any idea,"... how your UNHELPFUL remarks, do absolutely nothing but hurt others that might not have the EXPERIENCE you have? How do you expect people to know things without asking questions? Whew! RUDE!!

    If you can't get a rescue email sent to you, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

    how do i retrieve photos that have been deleted from my ipod touch if i have windows operating system?

    Yest it will restore photos deleted from yur iOd probvide that the photos were taken before the the last synce/backyp was made.  Make syre yu have automatic syncing turned off (Itunes>Preference>Devices>Check the box that says prevent auto syncing when connected).  Otherwise when connected, a backup that reflects the deleted photos will be made and will replace the previous backup.
