How do I recover a corrrupt iPad Garageband file

Have been working on a track for a few days, drums bass precussion to use as a backing track.
Closed the file this afternoon then reopened it to make a small change.
Think I might have opened it too quickly.
Now when I open it the loading bar opens up but doesn't move and the app freezes.
I can get the app going again by resetting garageband in settings.
All my other tracks work fine but every time I open this one it freezes.
I could redo the whole thing as its not too complex but I'd rather not.
Any advice greatly appreciated

There is no way to recover a deleted document unless you have it in an iCloud or iTunes backup.

How do I recover a .app and its file contents after osx "click and hold" "hit x button" delete

How do I recover a .app and its file contents after osx "click and hold" "hit x button" delete.
Accidently deleted rapidweaver and all of its content and paid plugins with it. all contain in its package contents. how do i restore. I tried using recovery software.

It is possible that you inadvertently corrupted the file while doing the edit.
But it could also be possible that you moved the file? For iMovie to see it, it should be in the Movies/iMovie Projects folder.

How can I recover memory on iPad?

I was downloading movies onto my iPad from iCloud today - Wreck-it Ralph (SD) and Despicable Me 2 (HD). Before downloading, I checked my available space and it said I had 11.2 GB of free space. Then I started downloading both movies at the same time from the cloud.
Wreck-it Ralph finished, but Despicable Me 2 seemed to get stuck and made no progress for a very long time....so I hit the stop button. I tried to restart, but it seemed to get stuck again, so I stopped it once more. When I went back and looked at my available space, it now said only 6.5 GB. I have Wreck-it Ralph on my computer as well, so I know that it only takes 1.43 GB. So what happened to the other 3-4 GB???? Did the Despicable Me movie go into some Temp folder on my iPad and get stuck there because I cancelled? On iTunes, I looked at the graph for space usage and 'OTHER' is 5.72 GB!! How can I recover that lost space?
I tried restarting my iPad and also syncing it again to my computer, but it still reads 6.5 GB with only Wreck-it Ralph installed. Any help appreciated!

Hi Yeong-Tae,
That sounds weird. If you cannot download Despicable Me 2 from your iPad, maybe you can try downloading it to the iPad via iTunes. If you want more space afterward, you can delete it and hopefully recover the space that's MIA.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

How can I recover photos from iPad to my Mac?

Hi! Have myself in a bit of a situation and I'm hoping there's an easy answer that I haven't found yet.
Last night, my external drive that I kept my media on died. No problem, right? I use Time Machine like a good boy...
...and then I see that TM excludes external drives automatically from backup. Oh heck. I can't believe I missed that. No backups of my years of media files.
So, that's not a problem with my music, redownloading everything using iTunes Match. All my photos are synced over to my iPad, and I figure, I'll resync them with iPhoto.
Not working. It'll show the last batch of photos I hadn't synced yet from my iPad, but that's it. It's like it thinks the old photos are still in the library, even though I just created the library file from scratch. (The original library file was lost.)
Is there a way I can get back my photos/albums/events back from my iPad and into iPhoto? I've backed up my photos from iCloud - is the solution there? or am I hopelessly screwed?
Thanks!

That will be difficult. Your iCloud backup of the iPad will only include the photos in the Camera roll of your iPad, and you can only use it to restore the Camera Roll.
See: iCloud: Backup and restore overview
The albums, that you synced from your Mac to your iPad cannot be synced back - that is one-way, see: iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
You can't reimport pictures synced from your computer to your device back to your computer. You can only import pictures in the Camera Roll or Saved Photos from your device to your computer. If you need to retrieve synced photos from your device:
Since you can only import back from the Camera Roll, you need to share the synced photos to the camera roll or email them. Or shre them to a shared photo stream to yourself, if your system supports shared photo streams.
You can connect your iPad to your mac using USB and download everything that is in the camera roll to iPhoto or Image Capture.
What is your MacOS X version on your mac? And the IOS version on your iPad? Can you use shared Photo Streams?

Hello,
Corrupt movies like yours can be recovered. It's quite hard, you have to rebuild the movie index.
There's a free application called Treasured to diagnose and preview your damaged movie files:

Treasured also explains how to contact the right person to get your movie repaired (me

How do I recover the original jpg photo files from my computer? They are embedded in the iPhoto Library and I cannot see the actual file.

I am trying to locate the original jpg or photo files that I uploaded from my camera. I know that the photos are there, because they show up in my iPhoto Library. Where can I go to find the original file ex: DSCN1242.jpg or OLM4564.jpg ?

Select the photo in iPhoto and use the command "File > Export" and set the "Kind" in the Export panel to "Original". That will write a copy of the original to a folder you can access in the Finder.
The command "File > Reveal in Finder" will show you the original inside the iPhoto Library, but you must not access the files this way. If you access them from other apps using the Finder, you will corrupt your library.
See Terence Devlin's user Tips:

How to Access Files in iPhoto
To what purpose do you need to find the files? Is there a problem and iPhoto giving an error message about missing originals?

Backup file corrupted- How do I recover or locate older backup files?

I synced my original iPhone (with 2.0 software) a few times last night to make sure everything I had on the iPhone was synced to my computer before I restored it, and sold it on ebay. It backed up the iPhone a few times and always wanted to restore it everytime. Well the last time I attempted to sync the iPhone I interrupted the backup process by 'x-ing' out of it during the sync. Now I am trying to get my 3G iPhone synced with the backup of my original iPhone and it is saying that the file is corrupt. Obviously this is because I interrupted the backup process.
So my question is: Is there a way for me to locate an older backup file that may only be an hour older than the corrupt file?
In the preference settings in iTunes I can see the backup files for my phone, but it only lists one, which is the corrupt one. And I searched the finder for recent files, hoping I could find the corrupt file, locate the folder its in and there find older non-corrupt files. Alas, no luck.
I've already restored the original iPhone so the info is gone from that phone. Is there any hope of finding a non-corrupt backup file? Please help.

You can find your backup file here:
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
It seems that iTunes lists all of the ones that are in that folder.
I just lost my backup, too. More than a year's worth of settings. I can't find any way of "fixing" the corrupt backup. It seems that photos are gone forever, if they weren't imported into iPhoto, but I did find this software to recover notes, sms, and call logs:

The developer seems like kind of a passive aggressive borderline extortionist, but the software seems to work.

To see my iPad's files on my Mac

At Windows' case if I connect my ipad to Windows I have to use the WinSCP to see into my iPad's files.
In case of MAC which how can i see into my iPad's files?

If you want to copy files to the iPad then you need to copy them into an app - there is no file system as there is on a PC or Mac, each file/document has to be stored/associated with an app that supports that file type. Depending on what apps you've got on your iPad (and what transfer methods they support) then you can copy files to those apps on your iPad either via the file sharing section at the bottom of the iPad's apps tab on your computer's iTunes, via wifi, email attachments, Dropbox etc. If you don't have an app on the iPad that supports a particular file type then you can't copy that file to the iPad.

My Pages app for iPad tells me I can't open a document and even iCloud won't let me download it to my Mac, how can I recover my document?

I really don't know what happened to Pages. First I was using the app, working on a document and everything was fine. I updated it a couple of times and there was no problem. Then, when I tried to open it once more snd continue to work with it, a message appeared telling me that the document had been modified in other iPad. Usually this would make sense but not this time because this file was only used on my iPad. So I chose to keep the document version created on my iPad and **** got loose since then. The document could't open, every time I tried, a message told me "The file cannot be open", so I read A LOT of what to do in this horrible case and tried to open it via iTunes but the option withbthe little arrow that usually works for send the file via e-mail, or to dropbox, or to print appear like I can't use it for anything so most of my options and hopes died. Then on a Mac I tried to dowñoad the file to see if there I could open it or at least change the file code from .pages to .zip and then unzip it but I can't even dowload it form iCloud so you see, I'm desperate. I need help, please! The document is very very important so could you tell me how can I recover it?

Having the same issue, can someone please enlighten us?

How can I recover an old/disused iCloud account. I was having some issues with my apple id so I restored my iPad, I am now stuck on the activation screen as I no longer use the iCloud account i used to set up the iPad and can't remember the address or pas

How can I recover an old/disused iCloud account. I was having some issues with my apple id so I restored my iPad, I am now stuck on the activation screen as I no longer use the iCloud account i used to set up the iPad and can't remember the address or pas

I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?
