How to recover old community name

Just a general question to the masses...
It bugged me really bad when the changed the old discussion forumns because right away I was no longer able to access the acoount I held for years and it asked me to make a new one. Has anyone found a way to recover this? A few people must have since there are member dates from before the change. If you aren't sure any ideas on who to contact at apple?

Still no ideas? Any way to talk to the moderaters? Something? I keep seeing this issue come up in other places and they don't seem to get answers. Is it really that difficult to link us to the ID's that we curated for so long? It may not be a big deal to some but it seems to be a big enough deal that someone should be looking into it...

    Hi and welcome to the Skype Community,
    You cannot recover old chat messages, I'm afraid. Skype will only synchronize maximum the last 30 days of conversation when you start it for the first time on a new device.

  • How to recover old OS X installation on the ssd after installing a beta OS X on a usb thumb drive?

    I just installed the brand new OS X 10.10 Yosemite beta 2 on a USB thumb drive.
    It almost works.
    Now I want to boot my good old OS X 10.9 Mavericks from the SSD.
    But there is no option for that, if I reboot the macbook holding the opt key!
    I see only "Install OS", "Recover 10.9" and "OS X Yosemite", if I plug in the thumb drive.
    But if I boot the  OS X 10.10 beta 2 from the thumb drive, I can browser my SSD "Macintosh HD", see all the folders and files, it's still there!
    If I choose "Recover 10.9", it says, I can re-install the OS X or recover my Mac from the time machine or ask for help online, what I'm actually doing.
    How can I make the SSD bootable again, without re-installing the OS X and losing my data? Yes, there is still an option to restore from the time machine, but it's too long, I need my computer now.
    It's a rMBP 15" early 2013.
    Thanks

    Found it: in the disk utility menu select start volume.
    Thanks.

  • How to recover old Back ups made with time machine?

    After a recovery with time machine to a very early back up, it completly deleted my old back ups from my back up drive? I had almost everything there. how can i get it back? is there any way?

    Hi Patsmith7,
    i think I understand what you're asking. You'd like to move the current Time Machine backup to a new HD so that it will never be written over as you continue to use the current HD where the data resides. If that is correct, then just follow the below link which will show you a very simple way of accomplishing this.
    If you only want to move a specific date then you will have to follow the same instructions in the link but click on the drop down arrow on the current backup which will show you each instance (date) of the backups. Grab the date that you're interested in and complete the move as instructed in the link to the new HD.

  • How to recover original file names?

    Hi! Please help me.
    I accidentally changed the names of the videos I was using for Adobe Premiere. So now whenever I open the Adobe Premiere file, all the videos are gone and replaced with a red "media offline" screen. Is there any way I can recover the original file names without having to do it manually one by one?
    I've tried going back to the restore point but it's not working. I can't locate it one by one too because I don't remember which video is which.
    I've already edited around 50 videos in that project so it would take me a loooot of time to do it all over again. :((
    Hope you can help me.

    If I understand you correctly, you changed the name of the file in Windows and do not remember what the file names used to be. You edited these in Premiere Pro, and now the project files you have created do not know where to find the video files.
    Is that correct?
    If so, I have what may be a simple solution for you.
    Assuming you are not maxing out each file so they are all exactly the same duration, the number of minutes and seconds and frames ought to get you where you want to go. Almost as unique as a fingerprint on my PC, but I never capture a bunch of videos that are identical in duration - although it is possible to do so, I suppose.
    Open a project file. Checking the properties of each file should reveal theoriginal  file name as well as the duration, which is also available right on the thumbnail image (see the image below).  Then open the Media Browser and look at the durations on each clip. This should be enough to help you either relink, or change the name in Windows back to what it was originally. This is still one at a time, but it should not take too long. A pen and paper might help with 50 videos.

  • How to recover old oracle

    Last Sunday, my system crash and i installed new copy of windows. I have installed new oracle in C:\ and i have already copied previous oracle folder that i have installed in previous OS, to D:\. Now i have to use previous oracle database.
    How to do that?
    Thank you

    It is important to mention which Oracle version you're talking about.
    Once you have installed ORACLE, you can restore your database by restoring it to the original path. Next you'll have to create the Oracle Service with oradim
    oradim -NEW -SID sid | -SRVC srvc | -ASMSID sid | -ASMSRVC srvc [-SYSPWD pass]
    [-STARTMODE auto|manual] [-SRVCSTART system|demand] [-PFILE file | -SPFILE]
    [-SHUTMODE normal|immediate|abort] [-TIMEOUT secs] [-RUNAS osusr/ospass]
    in 9i syntax slightly changes.
    If you've got your previous backup, restore the tnsnames.ora, listener.ora and sqlnet.ora to their original path and startup listener.
    Make sure your oracle service and oracle instance are started, you should be able to access your database now.

  • How to recover old table entries?

    I need to recover table entries in table T554G,
    is there any posibility?
    thanks & greetings
    Torsten

    Hi,
    Although your question is not clear but assuming that the entries are deleted from the table T554G and you want to recover them.
    Try to check the entries using tocde SM30 and view V_T554G in your server landscape (DEV or QAS). If you find them over there you can recreate them easily.

  • How to recover old backups

    Hi Guys,
    Started time capsule about 1.5 years ago. Backsup my macbook pro daily. 3 days ago I upgraded my hard drive from 320GB to 500GB. Now I realise that my previous backup files dont exist.I know its in there somewhere because the time capsule has about 140GB space left.
    My question is , when I enter time capsule , the dates dont go back to the time when I first started the back up.So how do I get access to it?
    Appreciate if you guys can help.

    Open System Preferences and select Users & Groups. Assuming the migration was successful, you now have a new account - it was migrated. Migration Assistant doesn't copy files, it copies accounts. To see your documents you'll need to log into the account you migrated. (It has the same password it did on the other computer.)

    If you are talking about the App Store, try clicking Account under the Quick Links section. Enter the old Apple ID and password.  Once you get to the Accounts page you can edit/change your Apple ID there.

  • How to recover old purchases from old pc on new pc with new i tunes

    i bought movies and stuff and i got a new pc because the other one crashed and now i wanna put it on itunes on my new pc

    The official policy on music/media purchases is that you only get one download and it's up to you to maintain a backup against loss: iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
    The licensing of Purchased applications allows for them be downloaded over again, see this article for details: How to redownload purchased applications from the App Store
    If you have an iPod that still has any of your purchases on it you'll find details in this article on how to transfer them to the computer: iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    Failing this, you could try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on this link it'll take you to the support/contact page, from there click on Music Purchases then the Lost or Missing Items option, from there click on "Email Us": Customer Service - iTunes Store Support

  • How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme? My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured" and my AirPort tool on my PC will not permit me to add my new Airport Extreme network (no network names to choose from)

    How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme?
    I have a PC running with Win7 and just replaced my Jensen With a brand New Airport Extreme.
    I have set up the Airport Extreme to the internet, Iphones and Ipads and it work as it should.
    I have downloaded latest Version of Airport tool on my PC. In addition i have downloaded the airport tool for Ipad.
    I have reset one of my airport Express and it now shows up both on the Ipad and on the PC airport tool.
    My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured."
    I have wired the airport Express to my Ethernet to be able to "see it" on my Airport tool.
    My AirPort tool on the PC will not permit me to add the airport Express to my new Airport Extreme network (no network names on the drop-down list to choose from). I wished for an easy set-up, but nothing seems to be plug and play as the Commercial says.. can you please help me?
    Sigve

    Hi
    Thanks for Swift reply.
    Yep - I in fact have two A1088 and one A1264
    I actually bought the new router because the Jensen
    router always lost connection to the Airport Express after some hours or days. I
    always needed to restart my Jensen to play music and that was driving my wife
    mad. The hope was that the Extreme should fix this. Both A1088 have been set up
    to only stream music to two of my stereo amplifiers from my PC’s Itunes library.
    Are the A1088 now useless?
    The A1264 has been set up to feed internet into a Denon Reciever that needed Ethernet cable.
    Please advise
    Regards
    Sigve
