I deleted mailbox from dock without TM backup

I accidently deleted the mailbox application without the backup from time machine. However, my mail accounts are still there. The mailbox application picture has turned into 2 pieces of paper with a pencil, ruler, and paint brush. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I also cant find my install disc on my mac mini. Please Help!
Thanks in advance for anyones help.

Dude, seriously? There's a search box: type 10.6.7 combo update in it and hit the return key. You don't even need to do that, probably, since it was at the bottom of the Featured Downloads sidebar when I looked at the page, but...
Look, this is a very tech-savvy way of solving this issue, and I'm getting concerned you might not be up to it. No offense intended, I just don't want you to mess up your system further by getting in over your head with tricky solutions. The easy and unbreakable way of solving this problem is to get an install DVD and reinstall the system software (making sure you preserve user accounts). do that, run software update a couple of times, and you should be good as gold. A 10.6 DVD costs $30, new: that (plus driving time to your local BestBuy or whatever) is worth the cost if it saves you major headaches from a botched repair effort.

How do I delete songs from Itunes without losing them in my IPOD?

How do I delete songs from Itunes without losing them in my IPOD? I don't want 11gb of music stored on my computer when I already have it in my Ipod. Anyone have some info?

You can Transfer music manually, then delete the files from the PC without having it sync to the iPod.
HOWEVER.....
Deleting songs off of iTunes or your computer is a very bad idea unless you have created one or more backup files of all your songs.
Using the iPod as the sole repository of any of your songs is a very risky practice. When (not ‘if’) you need to restore the iPod, return the iPod for service, or it's song files are somehow lost or damaged, you will be re-ripping all your CDs back into iTunes and re-purchasing all your iTMS songs. Restoring the iPod is a common ‘fix’ to many small issues that arise.
If you cannot store your songs on a PC or within iTunes, then you will need to have some storage medium in use (an external hard drive, DVDs or CDs). You should also consider a secondary backup medium for additional safety. Whether you keep your music in iTunes or on an external source – Multiple copies of your music files are a must!
The iPod is really designed to be playback device - not a primary storage device (although it can be used as such), and certainly not as the only storage medium for all your music.
Always backup your PC files: both music and data. Backup as frequently as possible. The usual ‘metric’ is to determine just how much work (hours, days, weeks) or money spent you are willing to repeat by extending out your time between backups. Your choice, your potential headache &/or loss.
Many data-savvy folks have more than one backup and create incremental backups every time they add to or change their Library. Depending on the work I am doing, I may perform several backups during the same day. As they are incremental, and placed on my Backup ExHD – it is a very quick operation to perform several times a day, when needed.
If you are heavily invested in your Library data (Playlists, Play Counts, Ratings, Last Played, Date Added, etc.), then:
it is critical that you also make multiple backups of your ‘iTunes Library.itl’ file.
iTMS REMINDER: While you can always take the time to re-rip the CDs you own to restore your iTunes music, if you lose your iTMS purchased music and have no backups, you will have to re-purchase them. Few exceptions are made to this rule – at least none that I am aware of.
Here is a post on developing a backup strategy:

Hi James,
I was able to use VI server to invoke LV 6.1 VI's using LV 7.0 without issue.
After discovering this and mentioning it in a post somewhere, Rolf Kalbermatter indicated that was expected. and I should not be suprised.
So....
Vi Server may help you.

Is there a separate place for me to post VIs to be converted? What's a ballpark figure for the maximum file size i could put on to be converted?
Do you know if the LabVIEW developers can/will create a way to overcome this problem rather than having to convert a VI through all the intermediate versions?
To the best of knowledge NO.
For each versino of LV there isw code included that runs behind the scenes when you open a VI from an earleir version which replaces old functions with the new versions. This is called Mutation code. To accomplish its task it has to know everything that changed between version X and Y. Since it is possible to baby step the versions up and the number of user that jump multiple major versions is small, I don't think any effort will go into that work.
THe largest attachment I have managed to upload was 3 or 4 Meg.
Just trying to help,

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you mean you deleted the files from Pages on your phone whilst using iCloud, then yes they will disappear from Pages on your iPad too.
If you simply deleted the app from your phone, if you were using iCloud then they should not have disappeared from your iPad.
It's not clear from your post, which of these you did.

How do you delete files from iCloud WITHOUT having them deleted from devices?

I need to delete files from iCloud WITHOUT having those files deleted from all my devices. How do I do that?

Just got off the phone with Apple customer service. It seems there is no around this problem. Once you use iCloud, you're screwed. The day you decide you don't want to have certain files store in iCloud, but you still want the files accessible on your computer, you have to spend valuable time copying/hiding a set of files on each device, and then re-setting up those same files in each device they way they should be once you delete them out of iCloud. Same thing if you decide to cancel your lCloud account.
No software should have the ability to hijack your data this way.

How do I delete meetings from iCal without notifying everyone?

How do I delete meetings from iCal without notifying everyone? I've searched the Web and the only answer that comes back is to use a product that doesn't help me with Microsoft Exchange. This seems like a fairly simple thing to fix, but has been outstanding for 3+ years. Really? Am I the only person who wants to remove old meetings from an Exchange calendar without whacking the entire calendar and its appointments and without having the original participants getting spammed?
I'm using the built-in "delete events xx days after they have passed", which you would think wouldn't do this. Guess again. I cannot control the fact my clients use Exchange, and it's a fairly common e-mail system for enterprises to have. Are there any solutions?
Thanks!

I was just experiencing this problem on Mountain Lion. The calendar I wanted to delete was on iCloud. So, I logged into iCloud from a web browser, and selected Calendar. On the current incarnation of iCloud Calendar the calendars are listed on the left. I selected the "Edit" link at the top of that list and chose delete. It indicated that the items would be deleted, but there was nothing about notifications. Then, when I went back to iCal on my Mac, I selected the calendar to be deleted, right clicked, and slected refresh...
... gone.
It probably would have disappeared on it's own eventually. I'd be curious to see if theis works for others, so please confirm.
Good luck.

How do I delete email from iPhone without deleting them from my Mac

How do I delete email from iPhone without deleting them from my Mac?

To remove a photo from iPhoto and your Mac:
Put it in the iPhoto Trash, then enpty it. Then empty the system trash as well
If you want to remove a photo from iPhoto but keep it on your Mac:
First Export the file from iPhoto (File -> Export) to whereever you want it and then go through the steps above.
Confusion arises as the notion that you would want to remove a pic from iPhoto but keep it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. It's like saying I want to remove one address from Address Book, but still keep it on my Mac. The point of iPhoto and such apps is that they are used to manage your photos. Anything that you need to do with the pics cn be done either with or via iPhoto.

How Can I Delete Albums From iTunes Without It Deleting Them From My iPod

Please help!!!!
How Can I Delete Albums From iTunes Without It Deleting Them From My iPod classic 160GB?

Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
I assume you've already consisdered manually managing your iPod's contents and rejected that idea.
I wouldn't recommend it as a solution, but if you delete the files for the albums leaving the entries in the iTunes library you can carry on syncing normally. iTunes will complain that it can't sync the missing files but it won't remove the copies from your iPod. Once you're happy with how things work you can can choose to suppress the error message.
While handy as a temporary workaround if space is an issue then it's probably time to look at moving your whole library to a bigger drive.

Can I delete items from my Time Machine backup that I do not want to include on a full-system restore?

Yesterday I had to erase the hard drive on my new MacBook Pro (purchased earlier this month) and reinstall Lion. I have everything backed up on Time Machine, but I've been having problems with Microsoft Office 2008, and would rather not import those files (I recently bought Office 2011). Forgive my ignorance, but I haven't found an answer to this particular question: is it possible to delete those Office folders/files from my most recent backup BEFORE using that backup to restore my system? It seems to me that restoring my system with Time Machine via the Command-R route doesn't allow me to choose which files to include or exclude. And from what I've read, Migration Assistant is only of service when I'm migrating files to a new Mac.
Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you.

How to delete account from thunderbird without deleting from server

I am lending a PC with Ubuntu and Thursderbird to a friend for a trial period. I want to delete two email accounts in Thunderbird without deleting same from the email server. The information in help seems to indicate that if I delete my accounts, those accounts will also be deleted from the server. This is not desireable - is there a way around this this? Thanks!

'''[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences_in_Windows,_Linux,_and_Mac Tools|Account Settings]|{select the account}'''
At the bottom of the pane listing your accounts, look for '''Account Actions''', and when you click that, look for and click on '''Remove Account'''.
Doing this removes the account from Thunderbird. It actually retains the data files associated with the account but removes the account entry and its settings. What's on the server remains untouched - well, at least that is my understanding. Can you provide a link to the help that suggested otherwise?
In theory, unless you encrypt your home folder, a savvy user could find the mail store in your profile and read it. You might want to go a step further and remove the entire profile.

How do I delete songs from iPad without Match deleting them from iCloud?

I've used Match to put a bunch of songs on my 16GB iPad and now I've run out of memory and need to remove some of them. How do I remove them from the iPad without Match automatically deleting them from iCloud and iTunes on my laptop? I only want to take the songs off the iPad.

This is a topic that has been covered in-depth on this forum.
You can delete individual songs by swiping across them and tapping the delete button. Or, in the Artist of Album view tap-n-hold for a second, then tap the "x" in the upper left to delete. Or you can delete all downloaded music by going to Settings > General > Usage, tapping Music, then swiping and tapping the delete button.
This will not remove the music from the cloud or the iTunes library.

Removing "Not Deleted" Mailboxes from a Database

Before I go anywhere, let me explain what I mean by "Not Deleted" mailboxes - We will be deleting and recreating a pair of databases this weekend. A s part of this process, we move all mailboxes from these databases to the other 22 mailbox databases
in the corporation, leaving our databases empty. We then run a command to find the soft-deleted and disconnected mailboxes and handle them (remove the former and reconnect the latter so we can move them to another database). When I ran this script
on one of the two databases, I found that the database had two supposedly live mailboxes on it.
So I ran Get-MailboxStatistics -Database and got info about these two mailboxes. Neither shows as being SoftDeleted or Disconnected, and neither has a DisconnectDate. So they should be live mailboxes, with an AD account. So I checked them
and found one had an account - but was on another database on a totally different server (in fact, in the other DAG). And the other belonged to an account that was deleted last November.
So, these two mailboxes appear to be zombies, with no life and no soul, but doomed to foil my plans to delete the database gracefully - they are all that stands between me and the success of my mission. Now, I know I can take the database offline,
delete the database files, and bring them back online and that will kill these zombie mailboxes, but I was hoping someone had a way I can delete them gracefully so I don't feel like I've just used a sledgehammer on my servers. I tried Remove-StoreMailbox,
but it requires that the mailbox have a status of either SoftDeleted or Disconnected - and from what I've read online, those are the only two accepted options.
So I come to you for possible guidance - keep in mind that these are totally unnecessary mailboxes and I have no qualms about deleting the database if that what it comes down to. Anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks ...
Will

There were two active mailboxes showing from the "Get-MailboxStatistics -Database <database name>" command, even though the database showed no active mailboxes when running "Get-Mailbox -Database <database name>" command. Neither of these
had a disconnected date, and neither showed a value in the Reason field. Now for your answers:
1. One of these mailboxes showed as being on another database, same GUID, etc, and was able to be accessed on that other database. However, Get-MailboxStatistics - Database <database name> showed that it also existed on this database.
We couldn't connect an account to this mailbox, nor could we delete it - the command (below) said the mailbox was on another database (which it was).
Connect-Mailbox -Identity <mbx GUID> -Database <name of the database we wished to delete> -User <account SAM account name> -Alias <account SAM account name> -Shared -DomainController <domain controller>
2. The command was what I show above.
Post Mortem: Since we had to delete the database, and since neither of them were needed, we just went forward with our work. I was hoping we'd be able to remove these mailboxes gracefully, but none of the tools we had available worked for the
job.

Deleting files from comp without deleting them for ipod

I have an 80 GB Ipod and a 30 GB PC HDD. I only have about 2-4 GB to work with at any given time on my PC. I want to know if there's a way to clean out files on my PC making room for others without losing them on the Ipod. I tried to just synch the new ones but it erased my other files. I'm glad I tested it first, but I don't know what else to do. I want to use my Ipod to its fullest extent, but I can't delete the programs and files used for school from my PC, so its really limited atm.

Best thing to do is either upgrade your PC's hard drive to a larger one or buy an external drive and keep your library on that.
But to do what you want, you have to switch your iPod from auto sync mode to Manually Manage mode.
In manual mode you can add stuff to the iPod manually (drag and drop from iTunes library onto the iPod icon on the left) without effecting anything already on it. Downside is that you have to manually add or delete content from the iPod and things like play counts, rating you might assign on the iPod, etc. do not get synced back to your library.
Good luck,
Patrick
