  • HT1364 after moving itunes media folder to different disk drive i think i have lost most of my library how can i get it back?

    due to lack of memory space i moved my itunes media library,only now i think i have lost most of my library as the i tunes page comes up empty,no playlists,no music, no music videos,no tv shows. can anyone help?

    Hong Kong,
    I don't think it is lost.  I think it is on the other hard drive where you put it.
    There are better and worse ways to move a library.  If possible, put it back the way it was, and then move it by following this guide: iTunes for Windows: Moving your iTunes Media folder

  • 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 have lost my favorites listing. How do I get it back?

    I have lost my favorites listing. How do I get it back?

    Are you missing bookmarks or are you looking for a way to access the bookmarks?
    If you have problems with bookmarks and history not working properly then check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Bookmarks_history_and_toolbar_buttons_not_working_-_Firefox
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Bookmarks+not+saved#w_fix-the-bookmarks-file
    If you lost the Bookmarks Toolbar then make sure that you've set that toolbar to display.
    If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible:
    *"View > Toolbars"
    Open the Customize window to set which toolbar items to display:
    *View > Toolbars > Customize
    *Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout
    *Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    *If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

  • I have lost all of my changes -- How can I get them back?

    I have made changes to many files in many folders.  I have successfully moved several of those folders from my laptop to a USB external hard drive (as my laptop just cannot hold all photos).
    This week, I purchased an installed a Network Attached Storage drive . . . and I copied all folders and photographs from my USB hard drive to the new networked drive.  Then I disconnected my USB drive.  Instead of then "locating" the "missing" folders (and re-mapping them one by one to the network drive), I "removed" the old folders from lightroom and re "imported" them from the new location on the network drive.
    UNFORTUNATELY - none of my changes are there.  How do I get these back?
    Thank you for any help.

    Use a backup of your catalog that you made before you did this.  If you don't have one, the changes are gone.

  • Updated Firefox on my mac; now it cannot open, fear have lost all my bookmarks. How do I get it back?!

    Fire fox has always been my preferred browser. I received a message that i needed to update Firefox. I did this and moved the icon to my application file as shown; noting only one of two steps was completed. there was no opportunity to do anything else. I opened it by clicking that i agreed it was an application from the internet. It worked that afternoon. I then turned off my computer, and now the old and the new mozilla firefox icons will not work. I have all my bookmarks on Firefox and need to use it constantly while I work; how do I get it back?!

    You calendar info should also be mirrored on your computer. Use the option to replace all events on the iPod with the info on your computer during the next sync. You can find this option in the info pane, Advanced section.
    You can also use the latest backup to restore from, it contains the calendar info as well: iTunes: About iOS backups

  • HT201272 i have lost all my audio books, how do i get them back

    I purchased a load of audio books now they have disapeared, how do i get them back.
    Thanks Lee

    You will need to restore them from your backup. If you did not make a backup, then you may be out of luck since audiobooks are one of the few items for which redownloading is not possible, but you can contact the iTunes Store, explain the problem, and ask:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
    It's possible they'll make an exception for you.

  • I have lost my Outlook contacts. How do I get them back.

    I have lost my contacts on my PC in Outlook. I can see them on my iPad. I would like to get them back on my PC. I think I may have removed iCloud from the PC and I can't see anything on the iCloud from the PC.
    Please help.

    This resolved my problem, but I have another related issue - I had several Groups before iCloud, but now they are gone. Can you tell me how to restore the groups?
    Thanks very much for your help.

  • I have lost the home icon. How can I get it back on toolbar.

    no further info. Home icon is not on toolbar. How can I retrieve it.

    A couple of options. First try to drag and drop the icon back onto the toolbar as shown in the [[How to customize the toolbar]] article.
    If that does not work, follow the procedures in the [[Back and forward or other toolbar items are missing]] article.

  • I have lost the firefox icon. How do I get it back?

    y firefox icon is gone and the only way i can get into firefox is by going through aol. I really don't like doing this. Also the only way I can get into my home page, is also through aol. Please do something.

    It sounds Firefox is still installed and you just need a quicker way to launch it. Here are directions for various operating systems (it looks like you're using Ubuntu).

  • I have lost the dwhelper icon. How do I get it back?

    I don't know what happened. Suddenly it was just not there.

    Did you look in the toolbar palette in the Customize window?
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    * If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    * If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.
