How do you access backed-up' files?

I recently bought a macbook and a time capsule. I backed up the macbook to the time capsule. Is it posable to access the files with my imac? I do not see a folder for the back up. I am pretty sure it backed up because there is almost a gb used on it.

I just came back from a trip and have pictures that I would like to share with my home computer from my laptop. Are these folders accessible from my home computer? My home computer is a imac 2nd generation 10.4.11. It does not have time capsule. I know when you have an external hard drive you can set up separate folders and access them from any computer it is plugged into.

    in digital editions how to you access the pdf file on your computer - I want to read in acrobat as digital editions too hard to read.@@

    On Mac, try looking in:
    /Users/dug.geo/Documents/Digital Editions
    On Windows, look for "Digital Editions" in "My Documents". If it's not there, look one level above "My Documents".
    If you know the filename of the PDF, you could also try doing a file system search for it.

  • HP DV6700 Operating System Not Found- How Can I Access & Back Up Files?

    1. HP Pavillon DV6700 -> old yes, I know
    2. Operating System: Vista
    3. Black Screen -> Err2Err3 Operating System Not Found
    I ran the Primary Hard Drive Self Test > Hard Disk Self Test and it was a quick test. After it finished it came back with "#10009- Replace Hard Disk"
    My question is: I've been tring to make this laptop last for as long as possible (obviously considering I was still using Vista). I plan to trash this laptop, but I need to know somehow, some way to access my files. There are pictures and essays that I absolutely need and I didn't do any back up in the last 2 months.
    Please any suggestions!

    Yes use a usb to SATA adapter:
    http://www.amazon.com/Patuoxun-Converter-Adapter-C​able-Drive/dp/B008ASF5MC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=13​...
    That one is very inexpensive on amazon.com. Connect the SATA hard drive to the adapter (after removing the drive from the laptop) and plug the usb connectors into two usb ports on any other computer running XP or greater. The laptop drive will (if you are lucky) mount as a lettered drive on the host computer and you can copy and paste files off the drive with Windows Explorer file browser.

  • I accidentally deleted an Application on my iphone 5 and with it lost important files. How do i get back these files. The last iphone backup sync was after this so I cant even access an older back up as I cannot find them. How do I get back my Lost files.

    I accidentally deleted an Application on my iphone 5 and with it lost important files. How do i get back these files. The last iphone backup sync was after this so I cant even access an older back up as I cannot find them. How do I get back my Lost files.

    On your iMac launch iTunes and at the top next to the Apple symbol click iTunes > Preferences > Devices and tell me what you see. You last sync should be there showing only a device name. If you have an older backup it will be there as well the difference is it will be the device name with a date and time stamp. Sync and backups are two different things and there is a chance iTunes made a backup the first time you hooked up your iPhone 5.

  • How do you access folders/files in other users Finder list?

    How do you access folders in other users finder list, once you have shared the folder or file

    You should be able to open and view the contents of any directories you have access permissions to using FInder, by navigating the directory tree to the folders in question and opening them as you would your own folders. If you know the full path-name of the directory, you can enter it into the Finder navigator opened by Apple-Shift-G; the dialog that pops up uses the same directory listing method as all unix systems, and has tab completion for ease of use. In general, all users have their home directories in /Users/, or you can simply use ~/../<name> to go to the home folder of a user via the parent (..) directory of your home (~) directory. If you are experiencing bugs or errors with this, as opposed to simply not knowing how to do this, please post any details of your experience so that others can help troubleshoot your problems.

  • How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed and you don't know what it is now?

    How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed by the former husband and you don't know what it is now?  And you set up your own new ID and account but can NOT access the updates, from the App store for the many apps that you already have, because they require that you sign in with that former now inaccessible ID and account and password?  Call it a problem of modern times and changing relationships, if you want to be charitable.

    So I guess it will only be new apps that I download that are allowed to give me their updates while 13 updates wait for me on an ID I can no longer access.
    Yes...  sorry.
    In the future, if need be, you can re download your purchases for free  >  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Good rule of thumb is to back up your purchases regardless  >  Mac App Store: Backing up your app purchases

  • How do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full

    how do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full.. HELP!

    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.

  • I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account?

    I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account? When it says 'download the converted file' I choose a location on my PC and click, but nothing happens. It seems that it can only save the converted file to my online account. I went to my online account but I see no way to look for the file

    Hey Fabrizio,
    You might need to sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf" using your Adobe ID credentials to convert your PDF file to Word.
    Do you get the 'download' prompt?
    Also, you can find the converted files by clicking at the 'Files' tab. 
    Please try the same using a different browser and check.
    Hope to hear from you.

  • How can you tell if a file is being used in your project or not?

    How can you tell if a file in your bin is being used in your project or not? My director dragged hundreds of reference files into my project and only used a few of them. I'd like to do some house cleaning and delete the ones that are not in use. This project file has 100 sequences in it, so it would be a tough manual hunt to figure this out.
    In Premiere Pro (or Flash for example), where all the information is in the Project Bin such as in/out times and duration, there is where it tells you how many times that piece of media has been used or if it hasn't been used yet.
    Can FCP tell me this info?
    Thanks for yout time!
    -Monty

    Monty,
    Within FCP, there is a menu item called "Media Manager" (depending on what version you are in). This would be worth your while to look into. It basically organizes your project by moving/archiving any used assets of a project and leaving out un-used assets. It saves a ton of disk space.
    For example, say you have a 5 minute clip with an in/out point that is just 30 seconds. Media Manager will "archive" just that 30 seconds, not the entire clip. There is even a setting that you can add additional "handles" time to the front andd back of the clip if you think you may need to add or change transition.
    Do a google search. I was just watching a few Youtube videos on this myself.

  • TS4036 how can I view backed up files and delete things I don't need

    how do I view backed up files and delete thing I don't need

    You can't view individual files contained in the backup.  You can control which apps are backed up, and whether or not the camera roll is included in the backup, by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tapping the name of your device under Backups, then looking under Backup Options.

  • How do I get back the File Edit View History Bookmarks Yahoo! Tools Help that used to be at the top of the browser window above the taps

    how do I get back the "File Edit View History Bookmarks Yahoo! Tools Help" line of text that I could click on for options that used to be at the top of the browser window above the taps

    I did that (I think I did) however the confusion is that I get only part of the menu and not the most important menu items like "file" "edit" etc. with all the drop downs. It is so freaky - my other computers have no problem like this and I and show the menu bar or not just like you described. I really doubt anyone really understands my problem with it. I took some screen shots of the good computer version and the bad one so someone can "see" exactly what I am seeing. This may be a one of a kind gremlin issue, LOL. Anyway, without those menu items, I am very limited on the usefulness of FireFox on that computer so I have to rely more on Chrome for those features and use the FireFox with Billeo and other tools that still work. Someday it may magically fix itself, LOL.
    Of the two images, one is the good computer and the other is the bad. The bad one shows the only way to see the menu items however they disappear after I am done with the custom menu and no other time can I get the items to "appear" it is like they are there but cannot get them to show when in the normal menu bar mode.

  • HT3458 How do you go back to the beginning of playlist

    How do you go back to the beginning of playlist on ipod shuffle

    The device only displays the last portion of a large text message. I'm not aware of any other method to access the beginning of the conversation except to scroll and keep loading the older part of the message. I would imagine to help with RAM management, the device does not load entire conversations.
    You can provide feedback to Apple HERE, if you would like to see a change in the way the device displays messages.
