I accidentally deleted cookie exceptions - how do I restore? (and why allowed without a dialogue box?)
accidentally deleted via alt -e
I prob have an older backup of settings but
1. can I recover in another manner that would be more current
or if not ,
2 is there an outline to recover only cookie exceptions from a backup copy
Thanks
thx for your help - you were right re the cookie exceptions file location,
unfortunately I did not have a recent backup copy (backup most everything regularly but not firefox other than via a full sysrestore).
I am disappointed that firefox doesn't do a precautionary dialogue
box before allowing deletion .... it's far to easy to hit the wrong key
- incl rushing ahead to the intended alt-R for the subsequent option page - clear history. I've had the same problem with a calendar.
Naturally in the end my fault but far too easy to rush thru and hit unintended key

Accidentally deleted phone icon, how do restore
Accidentally delete phone icon, how do i restore?
First, swipe your home screen to the left so you see the white search field top of the iPhone window. Type in: Phone
If it doesn't appear in the results field, connect your iPhone to your computer, launch iTunes. Right or control click the iPhone under Devices left side of the iTunes window then click Restore. -
I accidentally deleted an album from my itunes library and i want to buy it again but itunes is saying that i have already purchased it but i don't have it in my library. How do i buy the album again?
Sorry, but audiobooks cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

How do delete cookies with ios7 on I-phone and I-pad ?
How do you delete cookies with ios7 on I-phone and I-pad ?
Cheers for that but what I really meant was when you double click your home button you used to be able to keep your finger on one of the apps for 2 seconds and they all would have a cross on them and you could delete them now you can't ? , not delete the app completely just close the app properly to save your battery

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.

I accidentally deleted iPhoto. How do I get it back?
I accidentally deleted iPhoto. How do I get it back?
reinstall from the original source
Could be
1 - the restore disks that came with the computer
or
2 - the iLife DVD that you purchased
or
3 - the app store - log in under the Apple id used to purchase the software or to set up the computer - look under purchases - you might have to unhide or accept the Application first

Hi, i've accidentally deleted my imessage, how can i reinstall it?
Hi, i've accidentally deleted my imessage, how can i reinstall it?
Only by reinstalling OS X.
Boot into your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting) and elect to resinatll OS X. It will take some time. None of you data, etc., will be erased (although it's always a good idea to have a backup).
Good luck,

I have a 2009 Macbook and I accidentally deleted safari. How do I reinstal it?
I have a 2009 macbook and I accidentally deleted Safari. How do I reinstal it?
If it's in a backup, restore it from there.
If not and the computer's running Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, install it from the Mac OS X install DVD, using Pacifist if needed, and then run the combo updater for that version as well as all applicable Safari and security updates.
If not and the computer's running Mac OS X 10.7 or newer, restart with the Command and R keys held down and reinstall the OS.

I accidentally deleted my photos; how do I download my files and photos from Adobe Online Storage?
So i think backup online the the most effective way to protect data loss!
If you found you have lost your important files, you can just download it from the online server.
And if you delete your files from hard disk and cannot download it from online storage, there is still another way-data recovery software to recover your lost files. -

I accidentally deleted all my husband's Mac mail and now it is also gone from his gmail account. How can I retrieve the deletd messages?
Did you also empty the trash can? If you did not empty the trash, then likely mail moved the messages to the trash folder on GMAIL.

I accidentally deleted documents from Pages on my iphone - and now they won't show up on my mac anymore either. I must have saved them just on icloud and not on my mac, too. is there anyway to recover these documents?
On a mac, when you save docs to icloud, a local copy is also saved. It's saved at:
~/Library/Mobile Documents
Note that Library in the user's home folder is now hidden, so you'll have to set Finder to view hidden files.
The Mobile Documents folder has subfolder where copies of the doc/data files are stored.
If the file(s) are no longer there, then use your Time Machine backups to get copies back to the mac. -
what can i do if i accidentally deleted my iPhoto from my macbook air and the App Store couldn't recognize that i have bought it before and required me to buy it again ... should i buy it again or what ? i can't manage my photos now ...
Log into the app store using the Apple ID you used to set your computer up. Look under purchases. If it is not there you may need to accept it or to unhide it

i accidentally deleted some drivers from my macbook air and now i can not access app store and system preferences as it says the following message (You can't open the application System Preferences because it may be damaged or incomplete)
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu. -
