How to save accidentally deleted project?

I think I just lost hrs of work. I'm new to PP. Thought I'd try closing the Type window with Command+W, the standard Apple window close keyboard shortcut. Instead, it closed the timeline window .... and somehow...in a split second of not-thinking, when the save dialog box came up I clicked Save. I frantically clicked Undo but too late - now it appears all the work I did is gone. I don't know how or if I can get it back. I tried Reset to default under Workspace, but that opens an empty Timeline No Sequences window, as does restarting PP.
Unfortunately, Im not using Time Machine backup at the moment.
Did I erase my entire project?

ITs only been saved as "closed".
The Sequence will be in the Project Window.
Double click it to reopen it.

I have an iPhone 3G. I'm trying to find out how to retrieve accidentally deleted text messages on my phone. Is this possible?

I have an iPhone 3G. I need to know how to retrieve accidentally deleted text messages. Is that possible? Please say yes! Thanks

Myself and my girlfriend use the decipher textmessage program. She's on windows and I use the version for my macbook pro. It works cool and lets you save your text messages from your iphone to your computer. I've actually recovered a few deleted messages with it too which was helpful since I'm a laywer and needed them for work. Their site is:

Good luck! Hope you and your family are able to recover your sms messages!

Premiere Pro CS3 - How to Save a Final Project to Make Changes to Afterwards

OK, I just registered to the forum and this is my first post/question.
I'm fairly new to Premiere Pro editing
, and I wondered if there was a way to save the whole edited project/sequence to an external drive in case the client wanted changes to the project after they had viewed it.
I edit mostly weddings, so the projects are anywhere from 1hr 30m to 1hr 50m. I've watched all the lynda.com tutorials on Premiere, and I know about saving the final project as an ISO image file or as DVD folder, etc.
Also, I thought I remembered hearing something about being able to 'delete' the footage that wasn't used in the project too, and just saving the edited project somehow? I just thought I'd ask before I go ahead and delete all the footage that pertains to this edit. I've made an ISO file, but it doesn't look like Premiere will load it; nor will it load the video_ts files/folder.
Anyway, so my questions are:
1. Is there a way to load an ISO file to make editing changes?
2. If not, then how could I save the whole project/sequence in order to load it back into Premiere to make any changes to the original edit?
3. Does anyone here use Premiere for wedding edits? And if so, how do you 'save' projects for the longterm, in case you wanted to make changes to it?
4. Once you have an ISO image file saved, how do you burn it through Encore? Or am I forced to use the Roxio Creator program?
I guess that's it for now. I'm sure there are many more questions that I need answered, but I'll save them for later. :-)
Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions!

I do a LOT of weddings. Here's the process I've come up with over the years.
First, make a window dub of the whole thing. Sit down in front of a properly calibrated TV and home theater system and watch it from beginning to end. Make notes on what needs correction (here's where the visible timecode comes in handy) - music selections, audio levels, clips to be trimmed, color corrections, misspellings, etc.
Then, make those changes.
Next, author the final DVD for client review. Send that out with appropriate paperwork for a signed approval. Never delete/archive a project without client approval. Now, because some clients would take literally months to approve a project, I instituted a time limit of three weeks. After that, any project is considered approved and may be archived. I make this very clear, with the deadline in writing, when I send out the review sample.
If the video comes back for changes, things are still in place and I just make the requested changes, sending out another review copy with a two week limit this time. When an approval comes back or if a time limit passes, I finish up the project.
I make any remaining client copies, plus one copy of the DVD to go on a shelf. I also make an ISO for storage on an internal hard drive, to be moved later to an external hard drive at the end of every year. This gives me two master copies of the finished DVD.
I then save the project file, music and other audio selections, pictures and graphics to a CD (DVD if more space is needed, but this is rare). I make two copies in case one goes bad, and file them by groom's last name in a small CD file case. The previews and conformed files can always be rebuilt, so there's no need to save them. The actual media can be recaptured from tape, so they just get put on a shelf.

How to reimport a deleted project

Hi All,
I deleted my CAF Service Project. But it still exists in my workspace.
How can I reimport the Project the right way. After importing the project my Service Explore is empty.
Is it possible to reimport an deleted Service DC, and how?
Thanks Steve

Hi Steve,
Did you delete the project only in the DevStudio? If it's still on the file system, follow these steps:

HT4059 how to retrieve accidentally deleted highlights and notes in an ibook

My partner has spent countless hours highlighting and marking up a book my mother asked them to edit - only to accidentally delete all of the highlights and notes - thinking they had selected just a small set of notes to delete - but OH NO 16 pages disappeared - any chance they can get them back?

Well, you might think that. But you would be wrong.
I'm not aware of any unix OS with an undelete function at the filesystem level.
Such things don't tend to work well in a multiuser/server environment where lots of things are writing to the disk in the background.
And trying to guess what the filesystem used to look like is a good way to court random file system corruption.

How to recover accidentally deleted data in MAC X10.9

I accidentally deleted my Data from the hard disk drive (around 5000 images) and some documents. Please suggest me a way to recover it back as it is very important and emergency. I do not have Time machine or any other source to back up my data. Please suggest me a way!!!

General File Recovery
If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using recovery software such as MAC Data Recovery, Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive. Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk. Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads. Recovery software usually provide trial versions that enable you to determine if the software would help before actually paying for it. Beyond this or if the drive has completely failed, then you would need to send the drive to a recovery service which is very expensive.
The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.

Accidentally Deleted Project!

Hi,
While deleting photos from a project, using the command-delete keyboard stroke, I accidentally clicked on a Project and sent it to the trash.
The photos are sitting there in the trash, unharmed, but there is no "undo" function for this action in Aperture.
Now, when I try to re-import the photos into Aperture, it says I need more disk space in my Aperture library to make room for the old photos. My import settings are set to "move" not "copy" the photos into my photos folder....
Any advice on how to get around this pickle would be much appreciated!
Dave

If you have deleted the project, Aperture will import the entire project for you with all settings, see the import area of the file menu. You may need to move the project to another drive prior to importing though.
*An advanced technique!*
Quit your backed up Aperture, right click the (backed up) library, show contents, you should now recognise the structure as representing projects and a variety of other areas of Aperture, have a look around *without touching anything*. Now move your project into the Aperture Package as per the other projects, now close that folder. Launch Aperture holding the option and command keys down, this presents you with a dialogue box giving you the options to perform a "consistency check" or "Rebuild Now", select Rebuild Now, this will have the application look at the folder structure and recognise the "new" project.
This is an advanced technique, do it properly it will be fine, but at your own risk. If unsure perhaps prove it for yourself on a test library.

How to save part of project to another project file

I'm sure there is a way to do this but I cant seem to figure it out, hopefully someone here knows.
I imported all my kids videos and cut them down and put in transitions and everything, BUT it ended up being just short of 3 hours long and file is 2GB.
When I try to import into IDVD it ends up being too large for a DVD so I need to know HOW can I remove the last hour of my movie file into a new project without just deleting it out of original project which would leave me having to re-edit all over again the hours worth of video i already did for another project?
The disc I am trying to burn to is a DVD+R which i assume is 4GB.
Thank You
Patrick

I imported all my kids videos and cut them down and put in transitions and everything, BUT it ended up being just short of 3 hours long and file is 2GB.
Use the "Duplicate Project" option to create a duplicate project. Then delete the last half from one and the first half from the other.

How to save/archive full project

Cant seem to find a way to save project with an asset folder. most programs give you a choice to gather all included pictures, video, audio, etc and save it in a folder with the project. Does keynote only save as ONE big file?
ive tried everything including "save new documents as package"
i want to be able to update the existing asset folder every month

So you want to be able to add or delete photos without actually opening the file in Keynote, is that correct?
You can delete pictures by just pulling them out of the folder +(when you do open the Keynote, you will get a error message showing the picture is missing)+. You can change pictures by making sure the new pictures is titled exactly the same as the one you want it to replace and put it in the folder. You can't add as by just placing in the folder will not tell Keynote where you want it added.
Does this answer you question? If not, please be more specific about what exactly you are wanting to do.

How to Recover a Deleted Project?

Hi guys!
So I was cleaning my Desktop and acidently deleted the whole file of one of my songs.
I already tried the Data Rescue 3, but I don't think I can recover Logic Pro X with it.
Is there any other recovering tool that I can use? If so, how to rebuild the project after it is recovered ?

Undelete utilities can succed only when no disk writing has ensued after deletion, and then too there are no guarantees as any modern OS performs background tasks that may write to disk.
You have probably been doing other work since the deletion of your files, and the FAT entry has been reused, hence no trace of your deleted files exists for the undelete utility to detect.
Sorry for being the harbinger of bad news, but it looks as if your files are gone forever.
Put this behind you and move on to redeveloping your app. This time round, take offsite backups. That can be something as simple as making a copy on a removable drive.

How to retrieve accidentally deleted Photo Booth pictures?

I accidentally pressed the "x" button on the bottom of a pic that I wanted to keep. I tried Google to help solve this situation, but only found the following thread to no avail: http://forums.macosxhints.com/showthread.php?t=83220
One of the responders to a person that was in my same situation posted the following directory: /private/var/tmp/folders.501/TemporaryItems/com.apple.PhotoBooth/IntermediateTr ashDirectory/
That doesn't work.
Does anybody know how to find those pictures?
It's not in my Trash, I don't know where it is.

Nevermind, I found them.

How to retrieve accidentally deleted mailboxes from Time Machine?

I recently did a reinstall and, winding up with two Mail programs, trashed the one I was "sure" was the new, bogus one. Unfortunately, it was my original Mail program, including the mailboxes with letters from Swedish relatives, important addresses, etc. Going back into Time Machine I found strange-looking references to the boxes but couldn't figure out out to make any of it readable. I've come across advertisements for Disk Warrior, Tech Tool, and several other programs, and came close to buying them all at once before cooling down a bit. Any suggestions about avenues worth pursuing would be appreciated. (Or even if it's likely to be a lost cause.)
Cap

There's the Mail program and there are stored 'mailboxes' with the data in them. Deleting a version of the Mail program shouldn't affect the latter. If that's all you've done then your mail data should be where it has always been. My guess (and I'm not an expert in Mail) is that you have ended up with a different version of Mail to the one you've been using and it doesn't store its mailboxes in the same way so isn't finding your data. I would suggest asking the question of the Mail forum and give them the version number of the Mail program you have and any info you have about the version you deleted.

How to Save an iMovie Project in 720HD?

After creating a new project in iMovie 11, I attempted to export it in HD 720p. Whether I chose Share/iTunes or Share/Export, the HD options (720p and 1080p) were greyed out. Large (960x40) is the highest resolution format available. The new project was created as Widescreen/24fps-Cinema. The source material was shot on my iPhone 4 at 1280x720/24fps. Why isn't 720p available as an export option? DId I miss a step that would enable the HD options?
I know that I can select Eport using QuickTime to export into 720p format. It uses my QuickTime Pro v7.3 to do the work. Unfortunately, if I upgrade to Mountain Lion, that version of QuickTime Pro will no longer work, so I want to be able to learn the correct process for iMovie.
Also, I have learned that when I use 30 fps source material, the 720p option is available. This is nice to know, but my iPhone chooses 24fps or 30 fps without giving me a choice, so I can't always guarantee the frame rate when I shoot movies with it. I don't understand why the iPhone isn't consistent. I'd love to get an explanation for that, too, if possible.

If it's just under 2 hours long ..it'll fit. (If it's just under 1 hour long it'll fit, and possibly appear to have slightly higher quality.)
iDVD compresses video for duration, rather than anything to do with file size.
