I have had to "re-instate" "Mail" on my 5yr old Macbook Pro after it got "lost"during an s/w upgrade to Snow Leopard v10.6.8. In reinstated version all my Email archive folders are now missing from the screen. How/where do I find them ??
I recently purchased Snow Leopard v10.6.3 in order to upgrade the OSX platform on my 5 year old Macbook Pro. That loaded without trouble. Then I needed to do an online upgrade from 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 (via 10.6.4) and there the trouble commenced !! Somewhere along the way, the "Mail" application simply disappeared! On advice from Apple telephone support, I did a "selective" reinstall of "Mail" from the Snow Leopard disk, but the version of Mail it loaded (v4.5) was wrong for use with OSX v10.6.8 and so it kept asking for the 'latest" version (v4.6) and just would not work. I tried a "Fix" download provided on the Apple site, that didn't work.
I spent 2 hours at the Genius Bar of my local Apple Store and they finally found a fix, after some difficulty. Apparently there had been a programming error somewhere in one of the Apple update downloads.
So now I have "Mail" back - but the Mailbox folders now not as they were before - particularly they do not contain my archive Folders that I had been using to store certain historic emails.
I think the folder structure on "Mail" is now identical to that on my "BT Yahoo" screen - whereas before they had been different. My local Apple Store told me that it was practice now to synchronise the "Mail" screen and (for example) the BT Yahoo screen to be identical. This is well and good going forward - but does not help me with access to my historic "email filing system" !!
Anyone help me find those missing folders ?? They must be stored somewhere, but where ??!!
Cheers

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Why are Albums missing from the Albums "tab" in Photos app?
I just upgraded to the new version of OS X with the new Photos app. All of my photos transferred over to the new app correctly, but not all of my Albums are showing up in the new Albums "tab" in the Photos app.
For instance, my "Honeymoon" album does not show up on the Albums "tab," but when I search for in the Photos app it will appear.
How do I get all of my Albums to show up on this tab?
Additionally, does anyone know how to change the "timestamp" on photos?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!Terence,
I appreciate the reply, but that did not solve my issue. Several of my albums are still "missing" from the list, even though I can find them when I search: -
my old emails and documents are not showing up in email or finder both from the same date and I cannot find them anywhere. I do not believe I have any archive settings on. Any idea how I get them to show up?

what do you do when your phone numbers no longer have the contact persons name just a number. Also names are missing from the address book where contacts are.
I, too, love everything about my phone. The other day I tried to crash my Z10 by running multiple apps and having videos running in the background. Do you think my Z10 showed any signs of slowing down? Nothing doing! It ran as smooth as silk. I'm very impressed.
Cheers.

I have an OS X 10.6.6 MacBook Pro (Snow Leopard) and i am trying to format my whole hard drive (back to factory settings) from the original CD.
Can someone please give instructions?Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
To restore the MacBook Pro to factory settings:
1. Make a backup of your files because everything will be erased.
2. Insert the Snow Leopard disc and press the C key while your Mac is starting to start from the DVD.
3. Go to Utilities menu > Disk Utility, select Macintosh HD on the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the disk.
4. Close Disk Utility and install Mac OS X -

I accidently removed the trash can from the dock. Where do I find the trash app to put back on the dock?
I know this is pretty old but I wanted to add this for anyone else who might come across this thread.
I have PathFinder on my system and there is an option to add the "Remove from Dock" contextual menu items to the Finder and Trash. I accidetally removed the Trash icon, and to get it back do this:
1. Open Terminal.app from the "Utilities" folder in the main Applications folder. Or simply open Launchpad or Spotlight and start typing Terminal.
2. Copy and paste the below command exactly, be very careful with Terminal as it can cause terminal damage to your computer if used incorrectly.
killall Dock
Your Desktop background may flash and the Dock will disappear and will repear after a short pause.
You should now have your Finder and Trash icons back.
Hope this helps,

From the Finder menu select 'Secure Empty Trash'. If this or the suggestion above doesn't resolve the problem take a look at the various suggestions in this link:

Why are things disappearing from the screen?
Hi, I've been having a weird issue where things will randomly disappear from the screen. Sometimes it's a giant rectangular shaped hunk of content right in the middle of an application, particularly Safari and Adobe Illustrator- other times individual interface items simply disappear. In Illustrator zooming in and out usually brings it back. In Safari sometimes reloading the page helps, but not always, and sometimes it continues to show content from another tab or from previously visited pages in the area where content is missing. In the attached screen shot of the Photoshop interface all of the control handles and labels on the contextual tool bar have disappeared. If I can reproduce the problem in Safari or Illustrator I'll upload a screenshot of that too.
This happens regardless of which monitor the app is on, and regardless of whether another display is connected or not.
Normal:

Anybody had something like this happen before? Any info would be appreciated.
I'm going to try wiping and going back to Mountain Lion because of this and another on-going issue with wifi that has yet to be resolved
MacBook Pro
Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB
Software OS X 10.9.2 (13C64)ok, so I didn't go back to mountain lion. I couldn't seem to locate the time machine backup for it and Apple won't let me roll back through their systems. So I'm back on a fresh install of Mavericks and the issue seems to be continuing, at least in Safari. I tried to get a screenshot but let go too early and as soon as it took the screen shot the missing block of content returned to normal.

I have a late mode IMac 27" running Snow Leopard. I downloaded Mountain Lion from the Apple Store and paid for it. When I trie to install it took me through the first few pages of installation such as agrreeing to terms and the Lion Page showed up asking where I wanted to intall Mountain Lion. The install button was greyed out. I also had a message this disc is used for Time Machine. I had no other disc to choose from. Time Mahine was in the OFF position. I tried hooking up an external drive and tried using it as th Time Machine Backup. That did not work and it also said this disc is used by Time Machine. I have read of several other cases like this but have found no solution other than doinh a complee wipe of the hard drive and doing a reinstall which I really want to avoid if I can.
Look at the root of your hard drive for a folder called Backups.backupdb.
Or, a sparse bundle disk image for one of mobile computers that might have tried to back up to your Mac.
If you have those, remove them and try again. -
using migration assistant I moved some file from a PC to my IMAC. Now I can't find the files on the Mac. where are they? How do I access them?
How many users on your Mac? if more than one look in the others.

MBP 4,1 running 10.6.8 snowleopard and it runs great but i was wondering if upgrading to moutain lion will make run slower?
Lion is still available but you have to Call Apple to order it and then they send you a Redemtion Code to your Apple ID Email address that you use on the Mac App Store to download it.
But in all honesty even Lion is going to make your system run slower then it now does. Lion, like Mt Lion, uses more system resources then Snow Leopard. I can see the difference on my 2011 MBP with 8GBs of RAM and a fairly fast hard drive. Snow Leopard boots and runs faster then Lion and more so then Mt Lion.
What you need is a New or Newer MBP. If that is not an option then the only thing I can say is give Lion a try. That is AFTER you do a complete Time Machine Backup of your current Snow Leopard install just in case you need to go back.
By the way Apple replaced the Logic board in your system with the same Faulty NVidia chip install in it. Apple Never Updated the NVidia chip used on those logic boards. So odds are sometime in the future, Near or Far, that board will fail again. -
my phone recently suffered water damage so that the screen does not reigster when i slide to unlock. I am sycing the data from the phone onto itunes so i can put it onto a new phone. How can i ensure that i took everything off of the old phone before i restore it and where can i find all of that stuff when i sync with the new phone?
iTunes will only store a back up of the iPhone and you find this by following the steps below:
Windows
Edit>Preferences>Devices
Mac
iTunes>Preferences>Devices
The link below can show you what is stored in an iTunes back up:
