ICloud has lost 3 months of my husband's emails.
My husband has lost 3 months of emails from his laptop, iPhone and iPad. They disappeared as he was reading emails. Neither apple support not Genius bar have been able to retrieve them from iCloud. Apple support took them all off iCloud and reloaded them in the expectation that they would surface again.
They have been wiped from their too. Anyone else experiencing this challenge?

iCloud was never advertised as a backup system, you may have wished to believe that it could be but it wasn't (clearly)
Dropbox is also not a backup system, you still have no backup.
Use Time Machine or some other backup system, taking the easy way out is how data gets lost in the first place.

Last year I checked my iCloud music and I had purchased over 1700 songs. Now I checked it again but today the counter shows only 1400 songs.
So I lost 300 song during one year. Why?Thanks for replying Steve.
I've been battling with this on and off for a couple of days. Behaviour of my custom DVD template is not stable unfortunately, from project to project.
For example, I make a copy of the entire psd file (the one used in PE4 for the main menu template (Football_pal_s_mm.psd), rename my original to project it from being read or overwritten, then change some of the titles. I then apply this custom dvd template in a project and let say Title Line 1 through Title Line 5 are showing ok.
If I make another copy of this psd file, and change just the text on say Title Line 2 and Title Line 3, when I apply the template in another project, the new text is seen (the psd file layer is imported correctly into PE4) but now for unexplained reasons, Title Lines 4 and 5 no longer show in PE4 even though they are showing in the PSD file. I can't seem to find out why this behaviour occurs (i'm working blind here, no relevant documentation that I can track down on these functions).
I'm trying to figure out what determines the visibility of a layer in the PSD file of the template, versus what determines the visibility of the same layer after it has been read/imported into/by PE4.
Anyone know? -
3 years ago on an older version of itunes when you could hook your ipod to a friends computer and get their songs added to your library on your ipod then take them home and add them to your computer i took some of my friends songs. at christmas i got a new laptop and plugged my ipod into the computer to add all my ipod songs onto this new computer. it asked for her password to her account but she forgets the password. so, i went to the iforgot password thing and have had multiple emails sent to my email for 6 months and none have ever came. how do i just skip her songs all together? i am so done with this.
If you use the backup, your new stuff will be erased.

my husband has my Facebook on his iPad and has lost his mail
Hey Liakalady,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like your husband’s iPad may have restored from a backup of your device. If he was using iCloud to automatically backup, you can attempt to restore his backup:

My husband changed the Apple ID on our computer. For some reason, iCloud has the old Apple ID and it won't let me change it. I've been locked out of my iPad twice and had to restore it because of iCloud. How do I change the Apple ID (not the password)?
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too. -

Okay My Aunt has given me her old updated iPhone 5c where she has lost her password to her icloud account and doesnt know her sercurity questions to reset it is there anyway to bypass this with the iOS 8.1.3
You cannot bypass this security measure. You need to recover your AppleID from appleID.apple.com
If you can't send the password recovery to a secondary email, contact Apple Support. -

after I entered the password of my iCloud ID, it prompted out asking me to check email from an emai address that I did not set for rescure? and then I cannot login.
Try going to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Nokia Ovi Suite has lost connection with your devi...
5 months has passed and many hours on the phone to Nokia. The phone has been completely reset /reboot by Nokia time and time again and still the phone gets this message when trying to update software..."Nokia Ovi Suite has lost connection with your device"....We were optimistic that the software upgrade would solve the other problems we are having with all the Nokia phones at work. They are all E52's
Having the same issue currently with an E72 software version is 054.005.266.02 and Ovi Suite 3.1.1.80
Actually I had connection lost all the time with all previous versions of Ovi Suite too... it has never been reliable.
Using original Nokia USB cable, connected securely. Tried different PCs, different USB ports, same issue.
Just now I'm trying software update and it looses connection during the backup process all the time... very disappointing. Screenshot attached if anybody is interested.

Firefox 3.6.3 lost my profile. My husband's profile has overridden mine even on my Windows login. I cannot even log in to sites on my Windows profile because the cookies are gone and the sites refuse to recognize me. I am running Windows Vista.Please help.
Do the two of you share a vista account? If not, then it should still work if you log in to your account. Firefox keeps profiles separate per windows account.
If the two of you ''do'' share a Vista account, then go to '''Help > Troubleshooting Information''', and click on '''Open Containing Folder'''. That should open the current profile folder in windows explorer. Move one folder up to see if there are other profile folders in existence. See [[Managing Profiles]] -
I 've lost three months of appointments while creating a new appointment in
I was creating a new iCal appointment on my iPhone. I suddenly lost three months of appointment data. It was if I'd instructed the machine to hide the stuff, but I can't figure out how to unhide it (if that was the problem).
Any thoughts. This is killing me.
Thanks.Hi
I'm not sure how many USB controllers the G5 has, but assuming it's one and all the USB ports share the same controller, plugging in the monitor's USB cord seems to be stopping the controller (and hence all the ports) from working.
If you plug the mouse into the same USB port that you normally plug the monitor into, does it still work? If so, the problem would seem to be with the monitor USB cord or the USB hub in the monitor. If not, the problem would seem to be with the USB port itself. The fact it sometimes works if the connector is tilted seems to suggest a physical problem with that particular USB port or the USB connector on the monitor cord. Perhaps someone's caught their foot in the cable at some point and yanked or twisted the connector.
