Is there a way restore the system before I re-installed my start up disc

I wish apple care would told me to back up my entourage mail, I have a lot of important email, and addressees in entourage Mail. I need to go back to the old version and retrieve that information.
I was having problem with the spinning wheel, and could not fix it via disk warrior or disc utility. Apple tech said to re-install my system.
I spoke with apple support and he kind of walk me through to get past items, but could not help with ical, and then got disconnected.
I do see my documents and past desktop items.
I have been having problems with my "Very" important ical events and addresses and entourage email and addresses. I need to get those back!

Did you use the Archive and Install option and check preserve user settings and preferences? As I mentioned in your previous thread, your data should be in your Previous System folder, drag it to your System folder. If you don't immediately see your System folder, go to Spotlight and look for it, it will appear under "Folders".

  • I goy my Ipad disable, is there any way to unblock it with no restore the system?

    I got my Ipad2 disable, i dont know why it dont recognized the passcode I set up on it.  Is there any way to unbloqued it with no restore the system?

    If you don't know the passcode, you'll have to restore your iPad from the computer to which it was last synched to remove the passcode.  If you don't have that computer, you'll have to restore the iPad as new, and you will lose all your data.

    Rosetta can have a 2GB RAM "tax" to manage PowerPC code as well as how that affects performance.
    I think real world performance shows both statements to be wrong; consider this:
    If that were the case, how come Apple does not include that information in its Snow Leopard installation requirements, since Rosetta is an optional install?
    Also, running a PowerPC app on an 2011 i7 Mac with Snow Leopard will run faster than running that PowerPC app on a PowerPC Mac.

  • I buy single songs before the album comes our and when I buy the album the song doesn't show up on the album, its still a single. Isn't there a way where the single becomes apart of the album?

    I been buying songs that are singles, like for example: Give Me Everything (Ft. Ne-Yo) by Pitbull and then I bought Pitbull's new album Planetpit and the song didn't show up as part of the album. It still says that the song is a single. Isn't there a way that the songs from pre-ordered albums or singles suppose to be added to the album after the song is purchesed?

    Drag the artwork from the artwork window to the desktop.  Then, select the song without artwork and drag the artwork to the blank artwork window.

  • How do you restore the system from a backup file that you created previously

    I have a notebook, Pavilion g6 - 1031TX running windows 7 64bit OS, and ran the backup utility a few weeks ago before running a full system recovery to attemp to fix an issue - this issue was fixed by warranty, and now I need to recover everything from the backup files, I have run the restore executable in the folder and it created another folder on my C: drive (System recovery files), how do I use this to restore the system to its previous state?

    Unfortunately, the backup utilty portion of Recovery is not optimal solution for restoring many files.Unless you know exactly where they go you are stuck. Most of the important stuff such as photos,music,etc will be in the 'Users' folder under your user name. You will have to manually move them to correct location.
    A better option in the future is Windows 7's backup app in Control Panel.

  • What does it mean when my ipad is in Recovery mode? It's connected to my imac for software update and it says I must "restore" the ipad before itunes can be used. Will I lose everything on my ipad?

    What does it mean when my ipad is in Recovery mode? It's connected to my imac for software update and it says I must "restore" the ipad before itunes can be used. Will I lose everything on my ipad?

    Unless you have a backup from which you can restore, yes you will lose all of your data and settings.
    You should be able to sync your content back to the iPad if you have been syncing with iTunes all along. If you don't sync with iTunes, you can download much of your paid content again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID. This explains downloading past purchases.

    Unfortunately, at this point, you must restore the device before you can move on. There is nothing you can do to avoid it now.

  • Restore the system to factory settings

    Hi, I am upgrading my iMac (mid 2007- OS X) and would like to know how to restore the system to factory settings or at least purge all personal data before giving it away.
    Thanks,
    Dan

    If you restore it using the Command and R keys to restart on the recovery drive, you end up with a system that is tied to your Apple ID and cannot be updated or changed by the buyer.
    The alternative is to call Apple Support, 1-800-MY-APPLE and ask for a set of install disks for that machine...they will need the serial number to send the right disks.  Threre is a charge around $16 for those disks.

  • TS1398 Wifi not responding after the software update. restored the system but still no luck.

    After I updated the software, the wi-fi has stopped working. I have already restored the system but the problem remains. Wifi is working fine otherwise.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

    Are you leaving the box unchecked to Manually manage music & videos? You don't need to to add anything to the iPhone.
    Simply drag the playlist to the iPhone to manually add it.

    is there a way for the sender of an email to see if the email has been read?    

    Some email clients allow for you to request a read receipt, but the sender also has the ability to refuse to send it as well. Much of that is controlled on the receiving end.

    Hello buddyacw
    You would have to restore the iPhone. Download the latest version of iTunes and then follow the steps in the article below to get it working again.

  • I'm running Windows 7 and iTunes and the other Apple programs wouldn't automatically update. Went through all the options and finally had to delete all Apple files and re-download iTunes. Worked fine, until the next update. Is there a glitch in the system

    I'm running Windows 7 and iTunes (and the other Apple programs) wouldn't automatically update. Went through all the options and finally had to delete all Apple files and re-download iTunes. Worked fine, until the next update. Is there a glitch in the system? Does someone know of some proprietory block (I think it is related to Quicktime)? Also, once I re-downloaded everything, cleaned everything up, and deleted duplicate files, I closed down my computer. When I re-started it, iTunes was "brand new" -- all of my music, organization, tagging, etc. was gone and had to start over. Idea?

    Ok, so after like 4 days of going through all these different issues, I figured out that several programs weren't downloading, and it was an issue with my wireless connectivity messing up the digital signatures, so if you plug in your comp to the modem and delete your temp files, it should start to work!
