Lost iBooks. Please help.

I upgraded my iPad to iOS 5.1 and activated iCloud. I lost all of my purchased items in iBooks during the process. I clicked on the "Store" icon in iBooks. I then clicked the "Purchased" button, but none of the books I bought are there. The only things there are apps. When I connect my iPad to my laptop and go to iTunes, I can see the books under the iBooks tab. However, I cannot get them to reappear on my iPad, even after a "sync" it.
Any advice on how to get my purchased items back in iBooks on my iPad?

I feel really stupid replying to this, but I just wanted to say that I figured out the problem. I was clicking on "Newstand" thinking it was "iBooks". Man do I feel stupid.

My Iphone lost Safari, please help me restore it

My Iphone lost Safari, please help me restore it

So a Spotlight search on your phone to search for Safari and click the App. Once you verify that it is still on there you'll just have to look for it.
If the App isn't listed, try a restart/reboot of the iPhone holding the home button and sleep/wake switch. If the App still doesn't show itself in the OS or via Spotlight, restore the phone via iTunes.

I bought an iPad air and requested the guy at the apple store to transfer all my data from the old iPad to the new one. But when I got home there was nothing even in my photos and iBooks please help

I bought an IPad Air a week ago and asked the guy at the apple store to have all my information and documents transferred from the old iPad to the Air. However my iBooks and photos are empty. Please help. Is there something I can do or I just have to go back to the store?

Using the same Apple id and Password you should be able to download purchased apps without being charged again.
I download to an iPad/iPad2/iPhone3 & iPhone4 with no problem.

Updated iWeb 2.0.2: LOST Website - Please HELP

Hi Folks,
I just ran software update today and installed all the updates. Upon opening iWeb and accepting the new license agreement, I was greeted not by the website I have spent months building; but the Template select screen. My business website is no where to be found. This is very frustrating. I noticed one other person had the same problem. Hope this can be remedied. Definitely going to set me back a few weeks. This is the first time in 6 years I have had a problem with anything Apple...Please Help!
Best Regard,
brfloyd

This is quite strange. I keep my websites in separate folders and launch iWeb from there. When I tried V2.0.2 I used one of these sites to launch it. I keep a file in the iWeb folder which is a sort of a dummy. This file was not effected nor erased by the update.
So many people have problems with these domain files. I wish iWeb had a popup telling people to back them up. I keep copies of them in my Home Folder and also on two external drives.
I use the application Super Duper to make incremental backups every week.
I once lost two months work when my hard drive failed. The bigger the disaster - the greater the lesson learned!

I can't start the iBook, please help!

I have got an iBook G4, that I buyed in July 2005; yesterday I've tryed to start the computer but I can't!
I push the start button, there's the normal sound and in the screen the normal white page with the apple...but the iBook doesn't enter in the operative system!!!
What can I do??
Must I format the computer?
Must I call the assistance?
Please, help me! It's very important!

Hi Lucia and Welcome to Discussions.
Don't worry, it's not time to format yet!
The first thing to try is to see if your iBook will start in Safe Mode.
If your iBook is on, turn it off.
Press the power button and immediately you hear the start-up chime press and hold the shift ⇧ key. Keep holding the shift key until you see the rotating pin wheel. Release the shift key. Allow the iBook to finish starting up. This will take a lot longer. Log in at the prompt.
If the iBook has successfully started up in Safe Mode then restart in the usual way without holding the shift key. Safe Boot runs diagnostic and repair functions that may fix the problem without doing anything else.
If your iBook won't restart normally then do another Safe Boot as described above. Then from a finder window locate the following folders:
/Library/StartupItems and /System/Library/StartupItems and drag any third party items onto the desktop.
Restart the iBook in the usual way, without holding the shift key.
If the iBook starts normally then you know there is an issue with one of the third party start up items that you were using at start up.
If the iBook won't restart normally then do another Safe Boot as described above.
Open System Preferences>Accounts>log in items, select any log in items in the window & remove them by clicking on the - sign at the bottom of the window.
Restart your iBook in the usual way without holding the shift key.
See if that works and post back with the results.
Best of luck.
Adrian

All my data is lost. Please help me!!!!!!

I use TC as a regular ext. HD. So, accidentally I deleted all my files. And now I'm trying to recover them using Data Rescue, but it doesn't work. What can I do? Please help me.

Verzig,
According to your other thread, I thought you were trying to delete data off the TC. What changed?
Anyways, data recovery software like Data Rescue II and FileSalvage won't work unless you crack open the TC, remove the drive, and install it into a different HD housing. Then you will be able to recover data with recovery software.
Sorry to hear about your loss.

EVERYTHING IS LOST! PLEASE HELP!

Ok, so I go to open my iMovie project and am greeted, horrifically, by this:
"A Project File is Missing
The file “_” couldn’t be opened and is being skipped. Click “Ignore All” to skip any remaining missing file messages."
All the editing progress in the project is gone, and all my clips (not in their edited form) have been moved to the trash. Now what I've noticed is that if I go into show package contents, and then go into cache, all my progress still exists as Timeline Movie.mov but it's all as one video file and I'm afraid to mess with it because it's absurdly small (a few hundred kilobytes). I think what caused this is that the external hard drive my project is saved on was removed, plugged back in, and then saved to. PLEASE HELP ME GET IT BACK TO HOW IT WAS, I'M BEGGING YOU, I've looked everywhere else and have found nothing of help.

First of all, I would restart your computer and see if the problem replicates.
If that fails, open up your Package Contents folder and you should see in there a file called (movie title).iMovieproj. Open that, and if your movie is intact save it under a different name and you are good to go. There is also another file titled (Movie title)~.iMovieproj. If the previous file that you opened does not contain an intact movie, try this one.

LOST LIBRARY - PLEASE HELP!!

Last night I was trying to move some pictures from my wife's phone to my MBP via bluetooth and something went wrong. At a guess, I saved the photo file that I was transferring AS iphoto not IN iphoto - but as i say thats a complete guess. I have moved photos onto the MBP before via bluetooth without problems.
When I open up iphoto now its completely blank and empty - our library was under the 'shared' users folder so that both my wife and I could see it whichever profile we were using. I haven't backed up previous to this (ironically my new G Drive Hard Drive arrived yesterday). I am in the process of backing up now before I try to recover my 'lost' photos - thought right now I am unsure how to do this.
Now when I try to open the iphoto library in the shared folder, it says 'there is no default application to open the document iphoto library' and takes me into the application folder (presumably) to select the iphoto application, but I don't want to select this until I have finished backing up, just in case.
Having looked at package contents under this iphoto library, I can see there is no 'originals' folder in there as has been mentioned in other threads.
Is anyone able to help please?

Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and point it at the Library location.
If that fails
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
Regards
TD

My sister got ios8 and something got meesed up and apple reset her phone and my ipod is set up with that email so i lost everything please help ill share details

my sister got ios8 and something got messed up and apple reset her iPhone and my ipod is set up with that email so I lost everything. details if u can help me thanks

This issue has been resolved - my Support Advisor, Edgar, was able to discern what was causing the problem.
It appears that, despite years of never experiencing this, one of the latest ipod updates actually altered my device's personal settings and changed it to "Manual" for all synchronizing; even performcing Factory Restores did not change it back to being automatic.
My ipod is working as good as ever now thanks to Edgar. If anyone else is having this problem, please make sure you check your device's settings in iTunes and see if "Manual" is checked - even if you never changed the settings yourself and have no reason to suspect that to be the problem, as was the case here. If it is checked - uncheck it to enable automatic syncing.
So relieved this was not a much more serious problem. I've missed having my music on the go. Thanks, Edgar!

IPhoto possibly lost photos please help

Hello.
This is a somewhat long story that I will attempt to condense:
My friend recently updated iPhoto to the latest '11 version -- the friend's running the latest version of Mac OSX, while I'm running Snow Leopard.
Upon reading the stories of iPhoto 11 upgrading iPhoto libraries and accidentally deleting them, I told my friend that it would be best to backup the photos---6000 of them. I have the "bright" idea of going into the Master's folder in the iPhoto library package contents, and copy/pasting that folder to the desktop. My friend accidentally MOVES the folder, cancels the dialogue box/loading bar, tries copying the folder to the desktop, cancels 5 dialogue boxes (clicks the grey x) and the 5 boxes are in infinite load mode. After several hours, the dialogues disappear, leaving a Master folder in the proper position, and a Master folder on the desktop. NEITHER HAS THE PHOTOS IN THEM.
Searching for the original photos in spotlight, it seems that the pictures exist, but not all of them. I fear that a folder was deleted or lost in the whole ordeal. These photos are EXTREMELY important. I predict that maybe they'll show up in the trashbin under recovered files once the computer is turned off and on again, but I am curious if the photos can be recovered differently. I can't risk anything. I realize that what I attempted to do was very risky and silly, but I would appreciate it immensely if someone could helo in some way. We are going to take the computer to a tech store for some help too. Thank you.
EDIT: For the future, what is the best way to backup the iPhoto library's original photos? (Not the library, but the actual files. This whole mess is the result of my lack of knowledge about the new operating system. I have an "Originals" folder with the photos that can be copied/pasted. My friend has something different.)

I wish I had known that the upgrade wouldn't have caused data loss. It would have saved my friend from this ordeal.
Anyway, my instructions to my friend were to go into the package contents of the iPhoto library and copy the masters folder to the desktop.
Unfortunately, my friend accidentally MOVED the folder, then cancelled the move, then copied the masters folder to the desktop, then copied each of the 2011, 2012, 2013 folders to the desktop. Then all four processes were cancelled, hence the multiple dialogue boxes. Now there are no pictures in any of the masters folders, on the desktop, or in the iPhoto library. I hope that repairing permissions would help. I don't think that anything should have been LOST in this process.
EDIT: Teamviewer yes! I asked my friend to use that but it wasn't downloaded. I wanted to use teamviewer but in the moment it just wasn't available. From now on, I have to make sure that I use teamviewer when giving such complicated instructions. The problem is that I cannot see what is going on in my friend's computer, so I'm guessing based on the information given to me.
All I know is that most of the photos still exist as evidenced from a quick spotlight search. SOME may be missing or be in the netherworld.
EDIT 2: No backups exist I'm afraid. I was trying to figure how to backup the library in case the iPhoto '11 upgrade failed somehow. I should have just had my friend copy and paste the iPhoto library, not the masters folder. The process works well in Mac OSX Snow Leopard, but apparently, not in Mac OSX Lion or Mountain Lion.

New mac 5 days old daughter accessed a movie website and now keep being redirected to this site. Have erased her as user and tried to restore factory settings. Now computer running Internet recovery and I am lost. Please help

New Mac only 5 days old. Daughter accessed a movie website and now popups keep appearing and unable to access any other Internet sites without being redirected. Have deleted her as a user and then tried to restore to factory settings. I did something wrong and it is now doing an Internet recovery. Help I am completly lost and don't know what I am doing.

You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
Back up all data before making any changes.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.
