Lost all my settings after changing my ID

Just recently whilst signed into my yahoo account, it would not enable me to send e-mails.(on my apple ipad) So in my wisdom I changed my ID account along with a new password. Since then I have not been able to connect to icloud, , iTunes apps Safari as they still have my old yahoo account to sign into. I would appreciate if any readers have had the same problem and how they overcame it Thanks in advance

If you've updated your iTunes account to have a new primary email address then for the iTunes stores tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and tap 'sign out' on the popup and then log back in with the updated version of your account/
Similarly for the cloud, Settings > iCloud > Sign Out and then log back in
For Safari, if you have ids and passwords saved then you might be able to edit them via Settings > Safari > Passwords & AutoFill > Saved Passwords

I have lost all my contacts after changing my icloud account name ...... please help

can anybody please help ?? i have lost all my contacts after changing my i cloud name, i had to delete the old one and now i have lost all contacts ???

Well there is a warning. However it is designed that your computer is the MAIN place for your contacts. The concept of syncing is that the phone gets "copies" of your real data (your phone is not the primary source, your computer is).
So if your computers address book you sync with has no contacts, then it will erase contacts on your phone because you have no contacts (dumb yes, but that is how it goes).
It warns when there will be major changes to your primary contacts (your address book on computer).
Now if you had at least 1 contact on your computer, it would of "merged" them (thus bringing over what is on the phone and bringing that one over to the phone).
The assumption is when you opt to sync contacts, that you have contacts on the computer you are syncing with and thus your primary place for contacts you maintain.

I set up iCloud on pc, ipad etc was asked to copy contacts to iCloud and have lost all the settings and groups that they were in for over 2000. Can I get it back?

I have Outlook on my PC and thought it would be smart to have my contact in the Clouds where my ipad, work pc, home pc would be updated etc. So I was asked I though to copy my contacts from Outlook to iCloud. Instead it moved them and in doing so lost all the settings like Categories and reset how they are listed (used first name because have a lot of drs, phds, msws etc) now listed with last name and so I have a lot of people with md as last name. This is an organization list and is about 2000 contacts so having to go back and fix it will be a nightmare and unnecessary work.
Is there any way I can fix this easily instead of correcting each contact one at a time?
Thanks.

Restore your backup.

I performed a time machine backup without plugging my labtop into a power source. My computer died and all the settings were changed, ie the clock and date were changed back to 2001. So I tried to restore my computer using a previous time machine backup.

So I tried to restore my computer using a previous time machine backup. (which I now know was wrong). However, when time machine tried to restore it said there was not enough room to do a backup. It seems that it did a half backup because some essential files such as system profiler are now missing. Can I undo this restore...? What can I do to fix this

You need to do a full system restore, per Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #14.
If that sends a message, please note the exact wording.

I lost all my bookmarks,after switching to 3.5 silent how can i get them back?

i lost all my bookmarks,after switching to 3.5 silent how can i get them back?

Clarification:
I believe now you potentially lose all extensions, plug-ins when you use the new reset function, but you will let me know.
If that is the case, your find corrupt file method maybe better. However, I reviewed the two help articles and there appear to be more files than just the delete search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder. I am confused. Then I have to find the folders. I think help articles mentioned how to find the profile containing the files, but not sure.

Help!!! Lost all my settings!

Help! Just lost all my settings. Didn't do nything, just went to look at my Mail. Clicked on Mail in dock, and found that all my emails had gone from all boxes. Closed Mail and re-opened. It showed a box headed "Wecome to Mail" with "You have no email accounts configured to use Mail. Please enter the following information to send and receive email." The address book was empty. Clicked on Safari and found all Bookmarks gone and my homepage was now set to Apple instead of the previous setting to Google. Clicked elsewhere and got the beachball.
Rebooted machine (had to press the button.) When it came back the dock had reverted from the previous small magnifiable setting to what seems to be the original "out of the box" dock (ie all my additions that I had previously added, had gone. Mail and Safari were in the same boat (ie no data.) Also iCal has lost all it's entries.
Help! What's happened? What can I do?

My first reaction is to suspect your log-in.
Did you log-in (perhaps by mistake) as a different user ?
This might explain your being treated as if you just logged in for the first time with all the attendant defaults.
Is this Mac used by persons other than yourself ?
If not, do you recall setting the Administration rights to your account?
If yes, can you get the Admin to look at the state of your files.
Things to look for: could a folder have been moved or deleted by mistake?
Last but not least, do you have a (current) backup?

My iPad 2 lost all its music after normal sync How do i fix it?

my ipad 2 lost all its music after a normal sync. how do i fix it?

The first thing I'd do is check to be sure iTunes still has the music in it, assuming you bought the music through iTunes. If not, are you sure that the account you bought the music under on the iPad is the same account iTunes connects to the iTunes store with?

Lost all User settings / presets

hi
Using LR 2.2
on MacBook Pro / Leopard 10.5
worked great so far.
just finished a long development session, went through lots of pictures.
After quitting LR I seem to have lost all my user settings, like my development settings, the metadata presets and the export presets.
the catalog seems fine otherwise.
any idea what happened here ?
thank you
b.

It would appear that when you "change" this setting, Lr can no longer see the old settings since it's now looking in the wrong place. I would bet that any NEW presets you created AFTER changing to "save with catalog" would be remembered by Lr.
The question is: When changing this setting, is there something that has to be done in order to get the old presets to re-save to the new location? My thinking is that when you change the setting, Lr does not automatically save the presets to the catalog since they're already saved elsewhere -- i.e. it doesn't realize that it has to re-save them again in order to see them the next time Lr is started.
I'd be interested in hearing any further info on this.
Thanks,
Larry

Ipad 2 restored and lost all my settings.

I finally was able to restore my Ipad2 after having trouble updating to 4.3.1. Now all my settings are gone. I have lost my game saves, application settings and preferences, garageband songs etc. My apps are all there. Its just the settings that are mia. Its like its a brand new ipad2 with fresh apps downloaded. My local data is gone. Any thoughts on how to get them back?
Thanks

In the Advanced tab of iTunes' Preferences what is the time and date of the backup you used for the restore? It sounds like you have a backup that does not contain your dat and such. It may be that when you were having trouble updating a backup was made. Looking at the date might provide some information.

Lost all my photos after back up & reinstall-PLS HELP

Hello There,
i have a very serious problem, the problem is as below:
- my system was having a problem so I was asked by apple store guy in Zürich to reinstall my OS
- everything in iphoto was fine before that
- after reinstall, the following problems started:
a) photos thumbnails didnt enlarge & only a black circle with "!" mark came up. Videos dont play at all.
b) the photos stopped syncing to my iphone or ipad
c) even after rebuilding the iphoto library database (as adviced by genius bar guy), the problem didnt go away.
d) this problem also happened with the new photos imported into iphotos from my camera/sd card or iphone
e) the guys at the genius bar had no idea about this problem.
Now genius bar found out that my hard disk had a problem so they asked me to back up & reinstall my OS (snow leopard) for the 3rd time so they could change my hard disk
I did this, got my hard disk replaced & now I am restoring my system from time machine. I have the following problems.
- all the photos imported after this problem started didnt seem to have been backed up by time machine so they are simply missing.
- my old hard disk has been destroyed by genius bar so I have no back up any sort of my photos.
i have been going to the apple store about 5-6 time over 6 months now & they offer no solution except telling me too bad for me that I lost my family & children photos. All was fine until genius bar guy told me to back up & reinstall my system. I had requested him to help me out the very first time during the back up & reinstall but they have always told me they have only 20 mins for every client so I have to do it myself.
I am very sad at the moment. I have lost all my photos including work & my children since they were born. its very serious for me & i am totally depressed at the moment.
is there a way to recover the photos & videos?? I have read a lot of your forums & even tried iphoto library manager.
this is a desperate cry for help!!! this is my first mac & i now start to regret the day i bought it.

I just updated 3gs with ios5, using a pc. Photos and videos are not showing up in camera roll, In tunes the capacity bar of colors showed nothing in video or photo, but lots of memory in yello part of bar named other. I suspected that this was all my photos and videos.
Downloaded this windows browser, worked for me.
http://iphonefolders.com/
It opens iphone like windows explorer.
The pics and videos were located in DCIM folder.
Got back pics and videos.
Hope this works for anyone else.

Lost all my photos after updating iOS8

Hi,
Before updating to the new iOS8 I backed up my phone to iCloud (including photos).
After the update I have lost ALL of my photos. I tried to erase all content on my phone and start again, but still no luck.
Any ideas on how to get my photos back?
Thanks

Your photos are still on your phone. With iOS 8 there is no My Photo Stream or Camera Roll any more. The MPS has been replaced with the Recent Activity album.
The CR is replaced by the Collections mode. The closest we can get to the Camera Roll is to turn off the Summarize Photos feature in the Settings/Photos & Camera pane and view the photos in the Collections/Moments window.
The photos will be in chronological order when scrolled up from the bottom of the window.
More on how to find your photo in iOS 8 is described in this Apple document: Get help finding your Photos in iOS 8
The Recent Activity album is showing the photos added in the last 30 days going back to 8/20 (today being 9/18). In iPhoto on a Mac the My Photo Stream is showing more like 31 days, 8/19 to today, 8/20. It must be how the two devices calculate the last 30 days.
WARNING: If you use iTunes to sync photos between your iPhone or iPad and your Mac do not activate the iCloud Drive. Doing so will kill the capability of using iTunes to sync with your mobile device and disable Documents & Data syncing for your iCloud account on OS X Mavericks and earlier Macs, as well as iOS 7 and earlier devices.

[SOLVED]I've lost my saved passwords after changing hardware

I had to change my motherboard and processor the other day and immediately after that incident, I seem to have lost all of my passwords. The reason I'm certain of this is because the only password that's saved is from a site I only used after this incident. The only thing I'd done recently other than change hardware was update firefox to 35.02.
Even after restoring my key3.db to a version 4 months old, not a single difference was made. The password manager still only has that one single username and password, rather than the many I had before. Other than the change of hardware, the boot partition and drives are the same and nothing was uninstalled. Also, I'm not sure if it's related, but my logins.json file is 1KB while the logins.json.corrupt is 109KB. Were the passwords saved in there? What should I give a try?
EDIT: Solved with a post by Chris at http://codeverge.com/mozilla.support.firefox/saved-passwords-disappeared-on-update/2006894
I'm not sure how to close this ticket, so feel free to

Scratch that. Solved with a post somebody else mentioned at http://codeverge.com/mozilla.support.firefox/saved-passwords-disappeared-on-update/2006894
"You can force Firefox to re-import your old passwords. Here's how:
1. In the location bar, type "about:config" (without the quotes) and
press <Enter>.
2. Click [I'll be careful, I Promise!]
3. Search for the preference: signon.importedFromSqlite
4. Right click on signon.importedFromSqlite, and select "Reset".
5. Go to Help-->Troubleshooting_Information, then click on [Open
Folder]. That will open Windows Explorer in your Firefox profile.
6. Close Firefox
7. In your profile folder, delete the file "logins.json"."
Thanks Chris!
