Is it possible to restore deleted Applications?

Quick question,
If I were to delete certain default applications (ex. iWeb, iSync) that I just don't use, would I be able to restore them from the OS X install disc without doing a complete re-installation of Leopard?

In the last day or so the website macfixit.com had a blurb on this subject. They strongly suggest NOT deleting any of these applications, even though you never use them. Their reason is that even though you are not using them, they are part of something larger. There is a good chance that the applications you do use rely on libraries found in the applications you want to ditch.
Those are very good points for not removing apps. I would add that often a combo update fixes bugs in existing system apps and if the app is not present, it is not possible to predict what might happen. Most updates presume a complete system is installed.

    Is it possible to restore deleted messages?

    Hello there, Sensersix.
    The following Knowledge Base article goes over the process of how to restore an iOS device:

    Keep in mind the messages that will restore will only be as recent as the backup itself.

    Can you restore deleted iMessages back onto your iPhone without a Mac?

    Actually, there are now claims that it is possible, at least in theory:

    Whether such an app could slip by Apple's controls over the iTunes Store is an open question.

  • Is it possible to restore deleted events?

    Is it possible to delete calendar events to some kind of trash folder which allows me to restore event if I accidentally deleted it?
    As a workaround I currenlty use separate so called "Trash" calendar, but it is not always convenient.
    Two examples follow when "Trash" calendar is not conventient:
    Example 1. I want to delete event in advance which has notification set up. Deleted event to "Trash" calendar will emit notification, which is not what I expect.
    Example 2. Deleting one event from recurrent event series. "Trash calendar does not work at all.
    I use iCloud Calendar on Mac OS X and iOS devices.

    No, unfortunately once you delete a backup you can't get it back.

  • Restoring deleted application and information on it

    I recently updated an older iphone 3g 8g to a newer OS and lost all apps it deleted to original info.  Can restore the app I needed called "I am T-Pain" but lost all the songs on the app how do I restore?

    Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:

    To restore from backup see the following. This will get the iPod like it was when the backup was made. This is you only possible way of getting your information back since when the iPod is in recovery mode (the screen show conect to iTunes) the iPod is already erased.
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • Is it possible to restore deleted photos on the S5?

    I accidently deleted a folder of photos (instead of an individual one) from the SD card.  Is there a way to recover them?

    Bill Moyer,
    (Any relation to the Bill Moyer that had a PBS series with Joseph Campbell - The Power of Myth?)...
    The important thing if you are going to try one of these repair approaches is to avoid any writes to the SD Card. Remove it, and put another in it's place until you attempt to recover the deleted files.
    My understanding is that when files are deleted, the filesystem marks a special area to say the space is available. If nothing writes over that space, data recovery (partial, possibly full) is possible. If writes to the SD Card occur, the data loss may be irreversable...
    Good luck.

  • Is it possible to restore deleted browsing history?

    I deleted my browsing history without realizing it would delete saved passwords. Now I cannot access my account on a certain website. Is it possible to recover my history, and will that get back my passwords?

    Passwords are not stored in the browsing history. If you delete your passwords, history or cookies it is not possible to recover them.

  • Is there any way possible to restore deleted text messages or even get paper copies of them?

    I accidentally deleted all of my messages to my boyfriend.  My icloud says I have never backed up my phone.  Is there any way possible for me to retrieve the deleted texts or somehow receive a printed copy of them?  They are very special to me as he is in the military and I don't want to lose them all.  I'm so upset.  Thinking of ditching Apple altogether.

    If you did not back up the messages, they are gone. This would be true regardless of what brand of phone you have.
    I don't understand what you mean about paper copies. Unless you printed out the messages, there would be no paper versions at all.

  • Possible to restore deleted pages docs from iCloud

    my son deleted several icloud backup apps on his divice to make more space, it somehow was all connected and deleted my business data from pages and numbers on my compiuter and ipad
    ive tried restoring but ther data hasnt come back

    Yes, the deleted docs can be recovered if you have edited the iCloud file with Pages on your Mac and have synched your Mac with a Time Machine before.
    I have just mistakenly deleted some iCloud Keynote docs on my iPad and they were erased on all my devices. But I managed to find out the cache location and copied the files from a Time Machine folder(please refer to the picture I upload).
    The folder is hidden, so you first need the Mac to show all the hidden files and then try my method.

    It is impossible to remove the preinstalled apps.

    Swipe from screen to screen and look for the app - you cannot delete it.

    Hi James,
    I was able to use VI server to invoke LV 6.1 VI's using LV 7.0 without issue.
    After discovering this and mentioning it in a post somewhere, Rolf Kalbermatter indicated that was expected. and I should not be suprised.
    So....
    Vi Server may help you.

    Do you know if the LabVIEW developers can/will create a way to overcome this problem rather than having to convert a VI through all the intermediate versions?
    To the best of knowledge NO.
    For each versino of LV there isw code included that runs behind the scenes when you open a VI from an earleir version which replaces old functions with the new versions. This is called Mutation code. To accomplish its task it has to know everything that changed between version X and Y. Since it is possible to baby step the versions up and the number of user that jump multiple major versions is small, I don't think any effort will go into that work.
    THe largest attachment I have managed to upload was 3 or 4 Meg.

  • Is it possible to restore what iTunes deleted from my iPhone?

    Hello
    I am using two notebooks, one with Windows 8 and one with Mac OS X Snow Leopard. I usually use the Windows notebook to charge or sync my iPhone 4 (iOS 7.0.4), but I forgot it at work, so a few minutes ago I connected my iPhone with the Snow Leopard (I don't have any internet connection except carrier 3g network, and my iPhone doesn't allow me to tether it to the Mac), but I couldn't authorize iTunes. Suddenly all my applications dissapeared. I have two apps on my iPhone for work, who store some sensitive data related to my job. And now they are gone.
    1. Is it possible to restore these apps and the data I lost?
    2. Why does Apple require internet connection for such things, when some people don't have?
    <Edited by Host>

    The iPhone is designed to sync to a single computer. It seems as though you had the Mac set to automatically sync when an iPhone was connected. Bad move on your part. It should, however had prompted you not to sync or you would lose content.
    If you have been syncing this to the computer at home (Win8), then your content should be there, and you could restore to the latest backup you have on that computer.
    Not sure the answer to the Internet question, but depending on what you were doing, the Internet is not necessary for a regular sync.
    You are the one that chose to connect the phone to the other comptuer. Apple didn't force you. No grounds for any kind of litigation.
