I just lost all of my Mail, and Account Info ?!
In Mail preferences, I'm running 10.8.2 and Mail 6.2, I've lost all of my earthlink.net account information and it's been replaced with MobileMe info ?!?!?!
My life is in my Mail program ... what's happened ?!
I had hit Rebuild Mailbox for my InBox ... addresses were loading super slow, ie. I was getting the ring of death when asking Mail to finish email addresses ... and then something happened. Something like this has happened in the past. I just quit Mail, reopen it, and everything goes back to "normal."
My old emails don't seem to be in Time Machine, even if I go back to before this incident earlier today.
I've had my earthink account infor in Mail Preferences for so long I have know idea what info I need to get it back on track.
Thanks ....
Quit Mail. In the Finder, hold down the option key and select
Go ▹ Library
from the menu bar. Restore the following items from the most recent snapshot taken before the data loss:
Containers/com.apple.mail
Mail
Relaunch Mail and test.
Note that if you have an IMAP account, messages may not be stored on your computer at all. They may only be on the server.

Verizon lost all my E-mails and will do nothing to help
verizon sever lost all of my saved E-mails and verizon will do nothing to get them back. Verizon support was useless.
IF they lost it they might be willing to help you. If something you did deleted them, no so much. Common problems adding a phone, etc, with the default options which often is pull and delete.

Has anyone else had trouble with update 6.1.2 for I phone? After the update, I can't get back on my network (password is correct), ICLOUD doesn't transfer my downloads, nothing seems to work. It saved my calandar and address book, but lost all of my apps and music (except for a few songs, figure that out) and I can't get them back. Any suggestions?
I had this problem post 6.1. Not sure if it was a coincidence, but I'd just recently changed my password after being convinced I'd been hacked, due to being told I was entering my password wrongly, repeatedly by iCloud / iTunes. It turns out my iCloud account on my Settings -> Mail, Contacts and Calendars was listed as Inactive. Putting in my details, turning off Contacts over iCloud (thus deleting them) and turning them back on again, repopulated my contacts from iCloud with numbers attached to them.

I am in tears! I have just lost all my music in my itunes and they are not located on my pc either as it's a new pc. Help PLEASE!
Did it used to be on that computer ? Your music library will only be where you put it, buying a new computer and installing iTunes on it will not put your library on it.
If you go in Edit > Preferences in your iTunes and on the Store tab tick the 'show iTunes in the Cloud purchases' tickbox then your iTunes purchased music might show in the Music part of your library with cloud icons against them for redownloading - if you've moved countries since buying the music or if it's no longer in the store then it won't show for redownloading. And check to see if you've hidden any of your purchases : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
For your own music (e.g. copied from CDs) and what you can't redownload then do you still have your old computer with it on, or do you have a backup of your downloads/library, or is it on your phone ? If on your phone then there are some programs listed halfway down this page which should be able to copy it back : Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
Or to copy it from a different computer : How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support. -
Big Mistake, I upgraded to OS X Mavericks this morning and now I have lost all my e-mail folders where I was saving important e-mails. I did a mailbox rebuild and it did not bring them back. Should not have upgraded?
I do not remember what version of OS it was. I have carbonite back up but I am not sure it backed up my e-mail.

I have just lost all my contacts from my Mac and my I Phone. Don't know how. Can I get them back? Not using Time Machine
If you have no backups, and data has been lost, then it's lost forever. The rest of your data will inevitably follow if you don't back up.

I upgraded 4s to IOS 7.0.2 and lost all inboxes in MAIL.
I upgraded 4s to IOS 7.0.2 and lost all inboxes in MAIL. After reading email and exit to MAILBOXES, I can only select from: VIP, Flagged, Unread, To/ CC, Attachments, Sent, Trash. Not even "ALL INBOXES" is an option via Edit. How do I get my INBOX options?
Followingothers advice on similar issues, I deleted account (in Setting - Mail...) and then added it back. The Inbox was there, but ni Trash or Sent box. The Trash and Sent maiboxes presented themselves after I deleted an email, and sent an email.

i just did update of software and i lost all of my picture and songs from itune which is un usual .could any one tell me how could i get iphoto working again?
What did you update with what? Are we talking a computer? A device like an iPhone? You updated iTunes? You updated the operating system?
If you updated the iOS on a device, I believe it warns you it will erase the device and you should make a backup first. Restore from the backup.
iPhoto is an application pretty much separate from iTunes. There is an iPhoto forum if you are having problems with that application. -

I just lost all my email information on my 8.1 mini iPad - everything is gone my drafts my sand all of a sudden it just went. I shut it off and turned it back on still nothing I also cannot receive any emails but it shows I am connected
See if any of the following clears them. Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
If that doesn't remove them then try closing the Mail app via the taskbar : double-click the home button to open the taskbar and then swipe or drag the Mail app's 'screen' up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
Also do a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
ipod touch just lost all wi-fi capabilities. full restore as new ipod did nothing to change it. I cannot enter pass codes etc because there are no wi-fi networks found to join, despite other apple devices finding my wireless just fine, all sitting at same desk (and the airplane mode is off). thoughts?
Is this your problem?
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
This is frequently a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
