I accidentally removed my Downloads Folder from my Dock. How do I get it back? Thank you.

Charlie,
Thank you. Much appreciated. I do have an additional question... when I tried to follow your folloiwng guidance..
"One way to go to your home folder is to select "Got to Folder..." in the Finder Go menu and enter a tilde (~), then press return."
I couldn't make it work no matter how I entered it. Maybe I don't understand what you mean by the (~). I'm a novice as you can probably already tell. - Terry

I accidentally removed my download folder from the dock, how do I get it back?

I accidently removed my download folder from my desktop, how do I get it back?

I accidently removed my dowload folder as well. Your tip easily put it back in the dock, but now the folder opens differently. It used to show the most recent downloads at the bottom of a vertical list of icons. Now, a huge folder opens up in seemingly random order. How do I get it to go back to the previous preferences?

TS4036 I accidentally removed my iPhone device from icloud backup, how do I get it back

I was trying to clean up my backup as a message told me I was getting close to full. I accidentally removed my iPhone off iCloud backup. Can someone tell me how to get it back on please

Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, turn iCloud Backup to On to start backing up to iCloud again. If your device isn't listed under Backups, you don't have one. To see it listed again, create an iCloud backup, either by connect to your charger and wifi, locking the screen and waiting; or by tapping Back Up Now.

If you backed that message up before you deleted it you can Restore from your backup. If not it is gone, but if you just need some information from it you might try a spotlight search for a keyword in the text.

I deleted Safari from my Dock, how can i get it back please ?

Hi all i accidentally deleted my Safari Icon from my Dock, i managed to create a Safari shortcut in Finder and dragged that into the Dock, but the Shortcut has an Arrow on the bottom left corner that looks a bit out of place !!!.
How can i get the original Icon back please.

Go to your Applications folder and start up Safari by double-clicking on its icon. Once Safari is running it will be present in the Dock. Then right-click on the Safari icon in the dock and choose Options > Keep in Dock in the pop-up menu.

I accidentally removed the history and view etc buttons how do I get them back??? Please help I don't know how it happened :(

Well I was experimenting with stuff and then I tried something and then it removed them I have searched everywhere in the options but now I don't know where else to go can anyone help? :(

Thanks, that gets me so far. Following entering about:config, I get the usual page of links to various sites including links to browser.places.smartBookmarksVersion but clicking on these links just opens a website which doesn't help because no website gives any opportunity to double click on anything and change its value. How do I get browser.places.smartBookmarksVersion in a form where I can change its value?

Accidentally deleted a sample folder from my trash and need to get it back

Hi there i was wondering if there is any one that can offer some sort of assistance with this problem. I tried to free up some space on my hardrive and inadvertently deleted a folder of samples that are pretty precious to me, and as i am working on a remix at this moment, it has put me in a bit of a pickle.
I have tried using various 3rd party software such as "Stellar Phoenix" and "Data Rescue" both of which do not support rx2 files(rex) unless i provide the hexidecimal info, and when they give me my results there is no way to specify which files i am looking for nor do they make it simple to just recover one folder which in this case is all i am looking for.
Is there any way i can just simply recall this folder? or have i just ruined my career with a click?
From this moment on i shall be using time machine so no need to elaborate on that.
I have leopard.8 and a MacBook (white) if that helps and the file types are aup/aiff/wave/rx2 and patches for synths/fx units and such from Reason.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as i am almost at my wits end.
Thanks in advance.
Pascal

Basics of File Recovery
Files in Trash
If you simply put files in the Trash you can restore them by opening the Trash (left-click on the Trash icon) and drag the files from the Trash to your Desktop or other desired location. OS X also provides a short-cut to undo the last item moved to the Trash -press COMMAND-Z.
If you empty the Trash the files are gone. If a program does an immediate delete rather than moving files to the Trash, then the files are gone. Recovery is possible but you must not allow any additional writes to the hard drive - shut it down. When files are deleted only the directory entries, not the files themselves, is modified. The space occupied by the files has been returned to the system as available for storage, but the files are still on the drive. Writing to the drive will then eventually overwrite the space once occupied by the deleted files in which case the files are lost permanently. Also if you save a file over an existing file of the same name, then the old file is overwritten and cannot be recovered.
General File Recovery
If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten with recovery software such as 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.
The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on Data Recovery.
