How do I restore a stickies note I accidentally deleted?

running on a MacBook Pro, early 2013
OS X 10.9.5 (13F34)
any help appreciated...

It's very simple. I should start by creating a new folder on your Desktop.
Open the Library folder in the Finder (see the note above about its being invisible).
Then go to the Time Machine icon in the menu bar and choose 'Enter Time Machine'. Wait the TM display to open. Navigate backwards to just before you deleted the note. Locate the database file. Control-click it and choose 'Restore StickiesDatabase to...'.
You will be asked to choose a location: navigate to your new folder and click OK. The restored file will appear in your new folder, from where you can replace the existing one (which you could move out first).
Or you can just click the 'Restore' button at bottom right of the TM display and in the dialog which follows choose to replace the original file directly.

    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard (command-C):
    ~/Library/Safari
    Quit Safari.
    Select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the Finder menu bar. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A folder window should open. Restore the file named "History.plist" in that folder from a backup that predates the unwanted changes.

  • How do I restore the keychain passwords I accidentally deleted?

    I have deleted accidentally the files in the path utilities -> keychain access-> local items, how to restore the files?

    I don't think you can do 'undo delete' for keychain items, at least I couldn't when I tried just now.
    So if you don't have a backup, for example, with Time Machine, you can't restore them.

    how do i get back a note i just deleted by accident off of my phone?

    If the note was on your phone when you last backed it up to iCloud, with some effort you may be able to restore it by following Winston Churchill's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22600445#22600445.

    The laptop's too far away from the router to be connected by ethernet. It's all wifi.
    No separate server app on the laptop, it's all samba
    The files are on a windows laptop and a hard drive hooked up to the windows laptop. The windows share server is pants, so I'd need some sort of third party server running. Maybe you weren't suggesting to use Samba to connect to the windows share though?
    I'm glad that you've all understood my ramblings and taken and interest, thanks The way I see it, I can't be the only netbook user these days looking for this kind of convenience, and I certainly won't be once chrome and moblin hit the market.

  • How do I download MUSE again after having accidentally deleted it

    Hello!
    I am in a dilemma. After having accidentally deleted MUSE from my computer (!!), I am now unable to download it again from CC. It says it is already updated, but that is no comfort in this situation. I need to download it. Is there any help to get?
    HSPANHS

    Thanks Marty!
    Sorry, but I use the Mac.
    The problem was solved. Adobe has a small piece of software. It deletes all rests of software pieces on the computer. Muse was gone, but evidentally not small files belonging to Muse. The program erased everything, and now CC thought (rightly so) thought I had not installe Muse and allowed me to do so!
    Thanks for taking your time to write to me.
    Best wishes,
    Helge.

    Hi HSPANHS,
    Look into your controlpanel and see if muse is still there. If so, delete it.
    Then you will be able to download it again.

  • How do I find folder contents which were accidentally deleted?

    How do I find folder contents which were accidentally deleted?

    They would be in your Trash. Unless you have emptied your trash since then, in which case you'd need to use a file recovery tool such as Data Rescue.
    Of course, if you use Time Machine for backups, you can easily retrieve the file from TM.

  • How do I restore my passcode (not password) in my iphone5s. It's the one that is asked whenever you have to unlock the phone. I got used to having my thumb mark open it that I forgot it after my phone got recharged after it drained out.

    how do I get my passcode (not password) in my iphone5s sent to me via email. It's the one that is asked whenever you have to unlock the phone. I got used to having my thumb mark open it that I forgot it after my phone got recharged after it drained out. Apparently, the fingerprint won't do after the phone was drained and recharged again. The passcode has to be typed in. I don't usually allow my phone to drain out except this one time on a long trip. Hence I forgot my passcode and I prefer it being sent to me via my registered email. I know that if you enter it several times, the phone gets locked out over certain periods from 1 minute to 60 minutes so I don't want to take that risk. Any suggestions?

    First, this is a user-to-user technical support forum, not a way to communicate with Apple.
    That aside, no one can email your passcode to you because no one (not even Apple) knows it. The passcode exists in only one place - on the phone. You will have to restore the phone using the computer that you regularly sync it to. This will reinstall iOS, remove the passcode, and restore your most recent backup.
    Edit:
    See: iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode for more details

  • How do I recover a note I accidentally deleted

    How do I recover a note I accidentally deleted

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    Under normal circumstances you can't. But if by chance you have a backup of your iPad that includes this note then you could restore te iPad with the backup and recover the note.

    I am missing the note I made that was like a journal. I did not delete it but it isn't showing up in my list. I think it may have been accidentally deleted. Is there any chance of recovery?

    Here are the methods to recover deleted notes from iPhone:
    Restore with iCloud backup
    Restore with iTunes backup
    Extract from iCloud or iTunes backup using an iPhone backup extractor;
    Recover directly from iPhone using an iPhone data recovery app.
