I've deleted diradmin and I would like to recover it
I made a mistake, I was trying the tool and I've deleted the diradmin how can i recover the user? I was thinking in createuser in the terminal but I'm not sure about it.
He borrado el usuario diradmin, como podría recuperarlo? he pensado en usar createuser en el terminal y crearlo como un usuario, pero creo que esto no funcionara.
An Apple ID is used for everything (including this site) and including iCloud. See the quote below from https://appleid.apple.com/
There is no such thing as an iCloud password but it is possible that you have 2 Apple IDs and you are using one of them for iCloud.
An Apple ID is your user name for everything you do with Apple: Shop the iTunes Store, enable iCloud on all your devices, buy from the Apple Online Store, make a reservation at an Apple Retail Store, access the Apple Support website, and more.

Hundreds of email addresses have suddenly disappeared from my personal address book on Thunderbird. Gone. Previously, I would begin to type in a name and the system would complete it, now that is only possible if the email is stored in the address book. Some email addresses remained, but most have been wiped out. What happened? Where did they go and are they recoverable? This happened within the past week. Thanks for your help!
First, don't try to find and reimport or move photos via the My Photos search in the left hand pane of a Finder window. That's a sure way to further damage a library.
Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Is there a way to restore text messages back to my iPhone 5s version 7.1.1? I have several text messages that have been deleted somehow and I would like to restore them to my phone.
I have tried restoring it from the last backup and that did not help. Please advise.
GMHi
If you have already tried restoring from the latest back up but that has not worked unfortunately they have probably gone im afraid
Hope this helps -
I changed my computer and I would like to recover my list of musics I have bought !
Problem to recover my list of music I bought : I changed my computer !
Hi, you are supposed to back-up your library (just like any other important data) and take it with you when you move computers. Imagine moving house but not taking your possessions with you. Your new house would be empty. It works the same way with computers and your files, at least for now. iTunes is becoming a cloud service so that, like Gmail, or Facebook, all your data is available from wherever you log in, but the music aspect of that service is currently only available to US users. If you have data on an iPod or other device your should be able to transfer it back to iTunes.
If you haven't already dones so, autohorise your new computer to your iTunes account and then open Edit > Preferences > Store. In the Automatic Downloads section you can tick Apps and Books, US users should also get an option for Music. After enabling these options all your existing purchases in the relevant categories that are still available in the store should be available to download. Even with the cloud backing up is a good idea.
If you don't have access to any other copies of your media, and are not based in the US, then if you contact the iTunes store via the report a problem link in your account and politely explain the circumstances they may sanction a further download although they are under no obligation to do so.
Note that even if they do this once they are certainly unlikely to do it again. I noticed a rant elsewhere on the boards from someone moaning that they wouldn't restore his purchases after a second hard drive failure. To paraphrase Oscar Wilde: To lose your data once may be regarded as a misfortune. To lose it twice looks like carelessness.
In future you should make sure that you keep adequate backups of all your purchases, your iTunes library files and anything else you wouldn't want to have to go to the trouble of re-ripping. Ideally you should backup the entire iTunes folder.
Fast backup for iTunes library (Windows Only)
Grab SyncToy 2.1, a free tool from MS. This can be used to copy your entire iTunes library (& other important data folders) onto another hard drive or network share. You can then use SyncToy periodically to synchronize or echo your library to the backup. A preview will show which files need to be updated giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the new or updated files will be copied saving lots of time. And if your media is all organized below the main iTunes folder then you should also be able to open the backup library on any system running the same version of iTunes.

I have two separate iTunes libraries on different computers and I would like to compact into one. But I cannot without completely erasing one of the libraries. How can I do this without deleting anything?
Copy the content from one computer to another and import the media into iTunes.
Any playlists, playcounts, etc on the computer the content is being moved from will be lost. -
I have an IPod 5th generation and I would like to delete all personal content, and be signed out of my Apple ID as well, but there are apps that no longer exist on the apple store that I would like to keep.
Do this:

Then go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings -

I don't recall setting up sync acct. But am not computer savvy (can get by). Was checking out Sync and discovered that an acct is set up, but not with my email. My friend has used my computer, and I don't know if she meant to do it, but now acct. is under her email, and I would like to change this, but am afraid of deleting all data, and making a mess of something already messed up.
I hope you aren't saving passwords in Firefox, because your "friend" may have sync'd all your passwords to another PC.

I own a Mac book Pro 13" it has a 250 gb solid state drive and I would like to put a larger one in is this possible.
You don't need to partition your drive to run Fusion, only if you want to run Bootcamp.
If you have space on your Windows partition, I would suggest you backup your Windows partition, and then, delete the partition using Disk Utility.
You can now restore your virtual machine to a single volume or repartition if you prefer.
I would consider upgrading to a unibody MBP (used, refurbished will do) just to be able to access the HD. Opening the pre-unibody MBP is not something you would want to do. -

Advance warning - Mail worked fine.
I had fits with the last link I posted. At first it worked fine, then all of a sudden, it quit working. I now have iCloud - iCal syncing, but iCal is read only. Not a real big deal since you can log onto iCloud using Safari and post a new event.
I finally gave up on Address Book because it kept creating multiple contacts, which if you tried to merge or delete the multiple contacts, the contacts were deleted. It also worked at first and then stopped working as it should. -
New to Mac and IPhoto, would like to organise events
Hello, i have just bought the new macbook pro and I'm trying to sort all of the photos I have uploaded... I think i understand correctly that all photos are stored as an event...you can then edit these and store them as an album (similar to itunes where you would create a playlist) I would like to sort the photos within events as at the minute they all appear within the same album and I would like them sorted rather than creating new albums that would essentially keep everything as is but duplicate the photo. I'm unsure whether to delete the photos are upload again? Hope someone can help!!
iPhoto works similarly to iTunes. Every photo is in the Library and everything else is a subset of the Library.
There are two ways of viewing the Library: One is Events - this is the Library broken into chunks, based on the date and time of the photos. The other view is called Photos, and that's just your whole Library.
Albums are groupings of photos from the Library. They are different from Events in one major way: Photos in Albums simply reference the photos in the Library. A photo can be in 50 albums and use no extra disk space, as it's the same photo that' been referenced. Events use the actual photos. To have a photo in two Events requires a duplicate file, and hence twice the disk space.
I'm afraid I don't understand your query:
I would like to sort the photos within events as at the minute they all appear within the same album...
Photos within Events cannot all appear with the same Album, the two terms are not interchangeable.
...nd I would like them sorted rather than creating new albums that would essentially keep everything as is but duplicate the photo
As I said above, photos in Albums do not duplicate anything.
Events cannot be manually sorted. They are simple, basic level organisation. The day you want to sort manually is the day you outgrow Events
FWIW: Here's a canned post I use to describe an organising set up in iPhoto. Perhaps it will spark something for you:
I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums exensively. I title the pics broadly.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 30k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
Keywording takes time to set up, there's no doubt about it. I use Keyword Manager as it's much more powerful than the inbuilt system, and adds the possibility of nested keywords. So, for instance, if I add John to a photo it also adds 'Family'. Now I can add many keywords to a pic quickly.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.
By all means post again if I haven't answered your query.
Regards
