  • I've just found the keyboard shortcut in Garageband for 'copy region' had changed from cmdC to ctrlC. I went to Preferences and clicked Restore Defaults for shortcuts. Now its altC . How can I get it back to the original commands.

    When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive.  It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas?  I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

    U must have synced with your library on your laptop thereby erasing the school apps , the only way to get them back on is by taking it back to school and get them to reinstall them back on using there library.

    Back up all data.
    In the Finder, hold down the option key and select
    Go ▹ Library
    from the menu bar. From the Library folder, move the following item to the Trash, if it exists:
    Caches/com.apple.dashboard.client
    and move the following items to the Desktop:
    Preferences/com.apple.dashboard.client.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.dashboard.plist
    Log out, log back in, and test. If you still have the issue, put the items on the Desktop back where they came from and post again. Otherwise, delete the items.

    You should be storing everything on your computer and you should always backup your computer.  Have you failed to do these things?
    If so, not good, then you can redownload some iTunes purchases in some countries.  Open iTunes store, click Purchased under Quick links

    MacKeeper, being poorly written, acts like highly invasive malware* that can de-stablize your operating system. It is also unethically marketed and a rip-off, offering nothing that is not available for free.. Positive reviews of it are known to have been paid for by the developers, Zeobit.
    Further opinion on it and how to uninstall MacKeeper malware:
    http://applehelpwriter.com/2011/09/21/how-to-uninstall-mackeeper-malware/
    Do NOT download or use the ‘MacKeeper uninstaller’ from the Zeobit site, as this will cause even more damage to your operating system.
    This is also worth reading:

    Did you set up your phone to sync Contacts with iCloud? If not sure, you can log in to https://www.icloud.com and see if your contacts are there.

  • My daughter put my sim card in and loged into my itunes acount but now she has put her own sim in and deleted my contacts that showed up on her phone and it has deleted all the contacts of my phone too, how can i get them back and stop it happening again.

    My daughter but in my sim card and loged into my iunes account to get apps untill she got her own sim but my contacts appeared on her phone so when she got her own sim she deleted the contacts of her phone it deleted them of mine too. how do i get them back?

    The SIM has nothing to do with that. She used your Apple ID to buy apps/music, thus your contacts that were synched with iCloud got replicated on her phone. Any changes she made got reeplicated on her phone. There is no way to recover the deleted contacts unless you backed up your phone.
    Your daughter needs to get her own Apple ID.

    Hello Lisa,
    Double check your iPod's sync settings from under it's TV Shows tab in iTunes.  Make sure it is not set up to sync only unwatched episodes.

  • TS4124 I have around 1000 songs manually downloaded from my CD's to iTunes in my iPhone before an operating system change on my computer deleted my iTunes and had to create a new one.  The music won't transfer to my new iTunes!  How do I get it back?

    I can't figure out how to get my music back onto a new iTunes from my iPhone.  I had to replace my iTunes after an update to my operating system on my MacBook Pro was reversed (found Mountain Lion to be incompatible with many existing programs and couldn't use it).  I had alraedy manually loaded about a 1,000 songs from my CD's and now no matter what I've tried I can't get them back onto my new iTunes!  How can I fix this without re-loading all of these songs?

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • HELP!! I had two libraries in iPhoto, Photos imported the wrong one, and now I have lost 10,000  photos. How can I get them back??

    I originally had two libraries in iPhoto, my wife and I share two iMacs at different locations but we wanted to share the photos and it was set up this way Apple Geniuses at the store I have no idea why. Anyway, I updated to OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.3 with the new 'photos' app. It asked me to choose one of the libraries and evidently I assume I must have chosen the wrong one. It only imported 322 random photos, not the 10,000+ we had in iPhoto. I can no longer find these photos or the other library anywhere, it appears to have been deleted. I have tried 'alt' clicking the icon which used to open a 'choose library' box, but this no longer works in photos or iPhoto. I have no idea where it has gone and it contains precious memories over the years including the birth of our children. Can someone please help???

    Where is your iPhoto library stored? 
    my wife and I share two iMacs at different locations but we wanted to share the photos and it was set up this way Apple Geniuses at the store I have no idea why.
    Since you are sharing it between two Macs, is the library on an external drive or a NAS, or another remotely mounted volume?
    If the library is not on a directly connected disk, formatted MacOS Extended, move the original iPhoto Library to a directly connected, correctly disk.
    And the try first the iPhoto Library First Aid Tools on that library.  Repair the permissions, and repair the database in iPhoto.  Then try to migrate again to Photos.
    To repair hold down the  alt/option and the command key simultaneously while double clicking the iPhoto Library to launch the iPhoto Library First Aid tools. Hold down both keys firmly and long enough, until the First Aid panel will appear.
    The select "Repair Permissions". And then repeat, but select "Repair Database"
    But make a current backup of your iPhoto Library before you try this.

  • I recently got a new iPad and when synching it to my laptop I accidently clicked to replace all of my new information with the old. I had iCloud on the new one and there were many notes saved in it. How can I get them back?

    Everthing was replaced including the information under iCloud under settings. My iPad now states that I do not have my iCloud account set up on my iPad as on the old one I did not.

    Go to Settings>iCloud and set up the iCloud account you were using before by singing in with the same Apple ID.  Then turn the data you were syncing with your iCloud account back to On, and if prompted, choose merge.

  • The passwords and usernames i have for my sites got erased, how can i get them back or reset them so when i open them they nolonger ask me por that info like gmail

    Firefox deleted all of my saved usernames and passwords for the sites i allowed them, For instance I can no longer click gmail and be at my e-mail and see my email, but i am promoted for password and username.

    ''passwords and usernames i have for my sites got erased''
    Did you have them after updating Firefox, or did you lose your passwords as well. If you lost everything you either created a new profile and are in it, or you accidentally/intentionally cleared your history (see picture link). If you cleared your history, the changes are permanent and they are gone.
    If you cleared your history, except for bookmarks in backups, you will have to try for
    #Data in an older profile, for most people this would only be if one accidentally created a new profile, such as during a Firefox installation.
    #Your own backups
    #Old password, cookies from Internet Explorer
    Use the "Alt" key to temporarily see your toolbars. Use the view menu to display any toolbars that should be displayed, such as the Bookmarks Toolbar.
    Check these:
    *Do you have bookmarks Ctrl+B (Bookmarks sidebar), if you don't see your own bookmarks but you see those from when you first installed Firefox, you are probably in a new profile, using the Profile Manager could bring up another profile.
    *Check your current bookmarkbackups for dates
    :On current profile, you can check dates, and restore/replace current bookmarks from a backup. "Ctrl+Shift+B" to bring up the Library List, then in the "Import and Backup" menu, choose Restore to see what dates are available. This will tell you the last 11 dates you used your current profile in Fx5 (5 days if Fx3). You can restore if your bookmarks are messed up.
    Profile: ''Find out if there are multiple profiles''
    :type in '''about:support''' into the location bar<br>:Click on "Open containing folder"<br>:You are now in your current profile<br>:go up one directory level to "'''Profiles'''", where you can see if you have more than one profile directory<br>:files of interest (check last used/update dates) within profile: places.sqlite file, and within bookmarkbackups folder are .json bookmark backups for dates.
    '''Deleting History/Lost History''' (Tools -> options -> Privacy), make sure you are not clearing in "Settings for Clearing History" anything but cache. The items you have check-marked there will be cleared at end of session if "Clear history when Firefox closes" is check-marked. If under tools you click on "Clear recent history Ctrl+Shift+Del" you should be asked for how much history to delete {1hr, 2hr, 4hr, today, everything} and what to clear in the details drop-down. Make sure when using the location bar you are displaying both "History and Bookmarks" so the AwesomeBar can look for items from both.
    * http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4928/clearcachew.png
    '''You should be backing your for Firefox profiles''', there is not a lot of data and you should be backing up frequently. The is a lot more data for other applications in you Windows user library and you should be backing up data from there as well.
    When you backup all of your user data to external hard-drive (500GB to 3TB) your Firefox profiles would be included.
    But this is about Firefox. For Firefox a thumb drive would probably suffice to backup one or more profiles.
    '''backing up your Firefox Profiles''' (the following is all on one line)
    xcopy C:\Users\''<username>''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*.* g:\profiles\*.* /s /d /h /y /c /q
