I need to retrieve my trash "Do You want to empty"

After reading email and I go to empty trash, there is a tab that comes to say "are you sure that you want to empty trash" I am not sure what happened when I closed Thunderbird but now when I empty trash that tab does not come up any more. How to get it back as sometimes I empty my trash in error. Thanks

Tools > Options > Advanced> General tab
or
menu icon > Options > Options > Advanced> General tab
* click on 'Config editor' button
it will tell you to be careful :)
* in top search type: trash
* look for this line: mailnews.emptyTrash.dontAskAgain; true
* Double click to toggle 'true' to 'false' or right click on line and select 'Toggle'
* Close config editor - top right X
* click on OK to save changes in Options.

    how do you get rid of "are you sure you want to empty the trash"
    When I control click to empty the trash it always pop out the annoying message...
    is there any way?
    Thanks

    you mean at system preferences?
    No. Finder has its own preferences.
    I cannot find the finders advanced preferences
    Click the Finder icon in the dock, click "Finder" in the menu bar, then "Preferences", then the "Advanced" tab.

  • Help needed to retrieve deleted trash

    help--- very frustrated... working in my DRAFTS OUTLOOK EXPRESS IMPORT FILES-- my life!!!.. wanted to delete "Trash" as it seemed I have 2 trash bins... but my old Drafts folder in my Outlook Express Import folder was attached to the TRASH AND NOW EVERYTHING IS GONE.. DO I have to get tech support to come to my house to retrieve this?

    have you looked in your deleted folder? everything, including folder you delete goes there unless it is to large and you get a warning dialog if that is the case.

    Subject: CREATING KNOWLEDGE THROUGH NETWORKING AND SHARING
    Hi!
    Please give me a few moments of your time. As you are aware, spamming is improper on the Internet. No body likes to have unsolicited email sent to them. This is different, I want to share with you information where we have a common interest.
    This interest maybe anything affecting our lifestyle in the family home. Convenience, saving money, saving space or any improvements to our life style in the family home etc.
    If you would like to share information with me please click the reply button and I will place your name and address on a list. Then you will be getting discrete personalised emails conveying to you information on how to save money, space in the family home or just plain increasing convenience.
    This could relate to any aspect of the family home. This sharing of information will not lead to any obligation from you to do anything or pay any monies.
    A typical vital conversation would be around such concepts as:
    1. What makes things convenient:
    · Because at the time they are useful
    · Because they help us utilise our spare time
    · Because they help us save space, so that space in cupboards are available for other things
    2. What increases utillity in the home, townhouse, and condominium?
    3. Space is at a premium, how can I utilise redundant areas in a home.
    4. Convenience is not economics, breakeven point analysis or any other system of measurement, it is a feeling.
    5. Convenience is the elimination of frustration within a particular arrangement.
    6. Frustration is something that inhibits what you want to be done in life.
    7. Examples of frustration in a family home:
    · Want to get to work quickly but you are on toilet and run out of toilet paper;
    · It is frustrating when you can't find space in cupboards to put things.
    If you would like to share information with me please click the reply button and I will place your name and address on a list. Then whenever new ideas come my way I can contact you.

  • Trash doesn't want to empty??

    This has happened a couple different times (I just got my imac a couple weeks ago)...I go to empty the trash, and I get an error message "The operation cannot be completed because one or more required items cannot be found. (Error code -43)."
    Anyone know what this is about and why sometimes my trash doesnt want to empty? Last time it did this, I went back about 20 minutes later and it did let me. Any help is appreciated as this is quite frustrating.

    Sorry I never got a chance to come back and reply....
    It has deleted now (like I said it eventually does). I can't recall what was in there at the time.
    Thank you for your reply, though.

  • Are you sure you want to remove existing photos and sync photos from this computer?

    I have a 64Gb iPad running the current version of ios7 on which I store around 15,000+ photos. Every time I add a few new photos to iPhoto and then try to sync the iPad through iTunes (current version) I get the message in the title. It takes about 6 hours every time I want to sync my photos because it erases and re-loads all 15,000+ onto the iPad. Also when I sync my iPad the process fills up the Home>Pictures>iPhoto>(show package contents)> iPod backup file with about 80+ Gb of backup files so I can never fully sync my iPad in one go as the process fills up the 70 or so Gb of free space on my hard drive. Every time I sync I have to stop halfway through delete the file and sync the rest. Why can't my iPad just sync the new photos? Please help. Note: this is not a new iPad, this is not a new mac. It used to work fine befor why not now?

    An iPod can only be synced with one iPhoto library. If it has been synced with another library previously, the photos synced from that library will be removed from the iPod. Have you been switching between iPhoto libraries? You need to switch back to the iPhoto library that you want to sync with, before connecting your iPod.
    The library you are using for syncing, needs to contail all photos that you want to sync to your iPod.

  • The latest version of Firefox no longer asks if you want to save open tabes for your next session..I HATE not having that option. What were they thinking?

    Question
    The latest version of Firefox no longer asks if you want to save open tabs for your next session..I HATE not having that option. What were they thinking? (I think this is self explanatory)

    Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
    You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.<br />
    <br />
    Another possibility is to use:

  • "are you sure you want to remove existing photos.."?

    I just had to get a new hard drive (for my 2/12 year old Imac!)   Did the time machine backup, all seems good.  Now trying to sync photos from Imac to the Ipad.   I'm getting this message:
    "Are you sure you want to remove existing photos and sync photos from this computer?  Photos synced to "xyz" from other photo libraries or folders will be removed and photos will be synced from this computer.  Photos taken with "xyz" Ipad will not be affected"    Choices are "cancel" or "remove and sync". 
    Does this mean that if I "remove and sync" that photos on my Ipad that say, I played around with in some photo app and are now in my camera roll,.. will be lost??   I'm confused by this message.
    also, I turned off photo stream because it was driving me nuts. 
    Can anyone please help me?   There are about 350 photos on my Imac that I want on my Ipad..     thanks!!

  • Message "Do you want to save changes" to save when user clicks on other tab

    Hi,
    I have a series of tabs embeded from the main template CustomerTemplate.jspx with <af:commandNavigationItem. I have tabs on BasicData, Accounts etc. I have backing bean (including update button for saving the changes in the same) writtend for BasicData.jspx embeded inside CustomerTemplate.jspx, linkewise other tab.
    Now, i am capturing the changes being done in BasicData.jspx in the backing bean. When user shifts to other tab by clicking on the same, i need to popup the message "Do you want to save the changes" Yes/No. If use selects Yes, i need to call Save method from the backing bean else ignore and move to other page.
    I have written the code in CustomerTemplage.jspx for bringing BasicData.jspx pages as following
    <af:commandNavigationItem text="#{res3['cbuca.menu.basicdata']}"
    id="pt_cni2"
    immediate="true"
    selected="#{attrs.mode=='basicdata'}"
    action="basicdata"
    destination="/faces/CustomerBasicData.jspx"
    rendered="#{security.isUserInRole['basicdata,0']}"
    partialSubmit="true"
    attributeChangeListener="#{viewScope.backing_TestPage.openCustomDialog}"/>
    As per the ADF Documentation, attributeChangeListener will be fired once the attributes is changed (like lose focus) and not through programatically to change the attributes. But, it looks like event is not being fired after several test. I have using JDeveloper 11.1.1.0.2. This requirement will be re-usable for saving the changes to other tabs as well.
    If anybody suggest with the help of code to solve the acheive my requirement will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Thanks

    Hi Hasim,

  • I inadvertently trashed my Iphoto library.  Can it be retrieved like in Windows, you just go to a prior saved recovery point?  It wasn't securely trashed, just trashed.

    I inadvertently trashed my Iphoto library.  Can I retrieve it, like one can restore to an earlier time period on Windows?  I trashed it but I did not use secure trash.

    if you are running Time Machine - launch it and go back to the time you want, select the iPhoot library and click restore
    Step 1 - launch Time Machine (either click on it in the DOCK or double click on it in the applications folder)
    Step 2 - in the resulting window (which looks like a finder window) go back in time to when your iPhoto library had not been trashed
    Step 3 - select the iPhoto library at that time (by default it is in your pictures folder)
    Step 4 - Click on "RESTORE" and restore the iPhoto library from before it was trashed
    Step 5 launch iPhoto (click on iPhoto in the DOCK or double click on it in the applications folder)
    You do not copy or directly access the TM backup - as noted you use TM to restore the iPhoto library
    Additionally, I would assume that I should start from scratch.  Access and delete/trash all the pictures that I've since imported from a disk that I had save them too a year ago, in effect leave Iphoto empty before attempting any restore/import of the file, if possible.  Yes?
    No do not delete anything until this is all sorted out - and if you restore properly you certainly will not have to start over

  • I deleted my video off of photo booth i need to retrieve it

    I by accident deleted my video off of photo booth and i need to retrieve it this just happened

    You can open your Trash, sort by date so the most current date is at the top. Click on the Movie, then under File, click on "Quick Look Movie...."
    Once it is open, you can click on the Share button and email it to yourself.

  • Retrieve from trash?

    I accidently moved a lot of files into the trash, most of which include apps. In the past I had no problem undoing this action and moving the files back out of the trash, but since the newest update I can't retrieve anything. I can just drag and drop the files into another folder, so then the files are copied an on my computer. But it's a pain since they are in a folder that they weren't previously in, making it hard to find, unorganized, etc. It there any way to fix this problem? Command + Delete from the trash used to put the file right back where it went for me, but now it doesn't let me do that.

    Right click the file you want to move back, and press "Put Back."
    This option is not avalible for some files, but there is a solution for this.
    Right click the file(s) and press "Copy (filename)".
    Go to the old location of the file(s) and press "Paste."
    If you deleted TONS of files, you may just want to restore from a Time Machine backup.
    If you don't back up, BACK UP! You will find this very usefull if you need to back up.
    You don't need a "Time Machine" if you don't want to buy one, you can use an external drive.
    Go to System Prefrences, and select "Time Machine."
    Turn it on and select "Select Disk."
    Plug in your disk.
    Select it from the list of "Available Disks" and press "Use Disk."
    The first backup will take a very long time depending in the speed of your USB, and how much data you have.
    I can't stress enough how important it is to back up.

  • Need to retrieve data from IBM Travelstar Hard drive from G3 Powerbook

    The only problem is the G3 I had is broken, i now have a Macbook Pro Intel and need to retrieve the data from the old Hard drive.
    I have removed the drive from the G3 but is it possible to connect it to my Macbook pro?
    I'm considering buying an old G3 and fitting it to that then using target mode to retrieve the files.
    Mac Book Pro 17" Intel   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    The most cost-effective solutions may be one of the external drive adapters such as the one from Newer Tech.
    I'm considering buying an old G3 and fitting it to that then using target mode
    Just FYI, G3s do not support target disk mode. You'd have to have an AGP G4 or later.
