Mail has lost all my settings please help
Hi guys and girls.
So as the description says, Apples Mail program has lost all my settings, emails stationary etc.
I have been using time machine though.
Can anyone tell me is there a way to retrieve all this data?
Thanks in advance.
Hello, let's start with this...
I'd get EasyFind...

Use it to search your whole drive for case insensitive & show invisibles...

(dot ee em el ex)
How many does it find, & what are the main locations found?

I updated to Mountain Lion and Mail has lost all my RSS feeds. Where are they?
I updated to Mountain Lion and now Mail has lost all my RSS feeds. What happened and where are they?
-------- "Your RSS data is not lost. You can find it in ~/Library/Mail/V2/RSS folder."
it's just as good as lost, if there is no way to load the info in that folder into a new reader.
i followed that path, ~/Library/Mail/V2/RSS, and I have almost 40 rss feeds. that means
there are nearly 40 folders that I would have to go into, one by one, and extract the pertinent
information, and import, one by one, into a new reader.
this is a problem that Apple created. I would have never used the mail.app as a reader
if I knew Apple was going to do this to us. And it makes you wonder what else Apple is
going to do to screw us loyal customers over. (why would they discontinue a feature, knowing
that it would mean lost data and a headache to their customers?)
does anyone have an automated solution to importing these files into a new reader? -
Since my ipad update to iOS 7.0.2 my iPad has lost all sound , can anyone help me ?
Since I updated to ios7.0.2 my iPad 4 has lost all sound. I have no sound on any function or app since I updated. My battery is also draining much faster than before the update. Can anyone help me with a fix for the sound issue?
A number of people have complained of this happening to their iPads. The only recommendation I've seen is to shut down and restart the device. Do this by holding down the power button and "Home" button together for ~ 10 seconds. A red slider will appear asking if you want to shut down. After shutting down the iPad, restart by holding down the power button until you see the Apple logo appear.

Update has lost all my settings including bookmarks which I urgently need
Downloaded & installed update - restart had lost home page & bookmarks - some of which I urgently need, and regenerating the list will take me a VERY long time. Also, when I try to give feedback I'm told I need to download "latest version" (so what's the point of updates) Bookmarks etc. still lost - feedback page not responding to allow posting of comment. How do I get my settings back - this is URGENT.
As long as you didn't do a complete uninstall of Firefox 3.6, they should still be around.
First, you may want to make a backup of your profile folder. It contains not only your current bookmark list, but a folder of backups. But these are not saved forever. To back up Firefox, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
The following article has suggestions for recovering bookmarks: [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Lost%20Bookmarks#os=win&browser=fx4 Lost Bookmarks | Troubleshooting | Firefox Help]. -
IPhoto has shrunk all my photos, please help.
I know this seems mad and I have looked up online and seen that everyone says this can't happen but it has.
My camera is set to take 12mp photos which come out as 3000x4000pixels when put into iphoto.
I looked at my photos today and they were 3000x4000 and vice versa when upright shots and my older photos from other cameras were differing sizes.
I took some photos, not changing anything on the camera and imported then to iphoto and they are fine.
But all my other photos taken with the same camera at the same settings as before and the older photos are now 360x270 and crap quality!!
I have checked the originals root folder etc and they are 360x270 as well!
These were not this size this morning.
Has anyone ever known this to happen?
I think I have a back up but if not is I will be very annoyed.
Thanks for any replies and help on how to retrieve.Thanks for reply.
In my iphoto library I had differing sizes of images, ranging from 360x270 to 640x426 (old pics with old camera and differing friends imports) to 4000x3000 (new camera I got in December for going on holiday to New York) This camera is set to take 12mp images and has not been changed since I bought it.
Yesterday, I looked at my images, including those of New York and they were all of differing sizes and my images of NYC were 4000x3000 and ranged from 2-4mb in file size.
When I import my images I do as I have always done for the last 3 years. Copy images into a folder on my desktop, named what they are (New York December 2010) then drag into iphoto to copy. This procedure lets me see in the root folder library what the folder is called, i.e. (New York December 2010) rather than "Roll 236" for example.
If this means that I imported thumbnails then why were the images of the proper size? 3000x4000 and 2-4mb.
So then I installed Snow Leopard, not a clean installation, so to keep programs etc.
Stupidly, I didn't take a back up of the new images of New York.
After the install I uploaded some images, exactly the same way as I always do, and as stated above.
The newly imported images are as I would expect 3000x4000 and 2-4mb.
However, my NYC pics are all 360x270 and 40-70kb now. This is both in iphoto viewer, the root folders (data, originals and modified).
If this is to do with the Snow Leopard install, which is the only conclusion I can come to, then why?
I know this is my fault for not doing a back up of the new photos, so any answers stating "do a back up", thanks, but that doesn't help me!
The reason is because every post I can find relating to the install of Snow Leopard and iPhoto is regarding the complete loss of images and data, not the resizing of images. So what I am hoping is that as the "New York" images are still there but smaller, there may be some way for someone who really knows what they are doing to get these back to there original size.
Is this possible?
Thanks for any help and replies. -
NI stuff has lost all my settings
I've been asked for some remixes of some songs I wrote a few years ago,and I'm finding that anything that used NI stuff, Massive, Reaktor, Guitar Rig etc., none of the settings have been saved with the song anymore whereas they previously were. I haven't changed anything in my system, I'm still on OS 10.6.8 and Logic 9.1.8. Anyone know why this would happen or a solution?
Sure you can call them.....
http://www.native-instruments.com/en/company/contact-ni/
...though you will have to wait until Monday now....
However....
Did you update your NI stuff to new major versions after you wrote those old pieces? If so, thats probably why as it's only recently (In the last year or so) that NI fixed the problem..
Example.. now Kontakt 5 will open projects that used Kontakt 4 or earlier... correctly with the correct settings and libraries..
Originally K5 couldn't do this and you had to manually update the instances of K4 to K5 yourself.. along with the sample libraries used... in every project but now you don't need to. -

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?

Since I've installed Mountain Lion, I am having lock up issues with multiple programs. MS Outlook has crashed and I've lost all my folders. HELP?
okay I've finally been able to get tor and all the other programs to work according to my plan the only thing that's still making problems is that iptables doesn't work as I want it to, when I start chromium without proxy settings privoxy doesn't seem to forward the information to polipo.. do I need to add another rule to iptables.rules in order for the program to know it has to reroute the information again or how can I get this to work? and is there any way to run rtorrent with proxy support?
anyway, problem 2 and 3 are still to be solved.
and does anybody know where i can get a good dansguardian blacklist that was not designed for 6 year old children and for which I don't need to subscribe? I'm still getting these partypoker popups -.-
//e: with iptables it's the same thing as described in the first post. https works, http doesnt. I get the output "Invalid header received from client." on http sites. still no idea why though.. (and the https-version of torcheck.xenubite says i'm tor unprotected while starting the browser with iptables)

Hi,
DV7 is a series of dozens if not hundreds of models, what is yours ? Please bear in mind normally HDMI sound on computers go from video cards, not "sound" cards.

My iPHONE 5 wifi is NOT working when am 3 feet away from router while my iPhone 4s has full signal all the time.Please help.
The problem would seem to be in the firewall in your router. Have you tried disabling it? I assume you've updated the router firmware, right? Consider bypassing the ISP provided router (using it as a modem only) and unsing another device such as an Aiport Express.

Can anyone help please?
5.0.1 Firefox, application froze then crashed. Restarted it, but no 'restore session' and i've lost all my tabs. Help please?!?!
Done config:restoresession, and nothing.There shouldn't be any numbered sessionstore-##.js in the Firefox Profile Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
The presence of such files usually indicates that that was a problem with accessing the main sessionstore.js file that prevented Firefox from renaming the temp file with the number.<br />
In this case you may be lucky that the file with the highest number may have that session.<br />
You can try to rename the file sessionstore-3.js to sessionstore.js to see if that brings back the lost tabs.
If you use the Time Machine then you can try to restore a copy of sessionstore.js from around the time that you lost that session. -
I just used a firewire connection to transfer files from a PowerBook G4 to a MacBook Pro. The MacBook Pro has lost all that was on it, and all the applications are opening like they have never been used before and asking for Rosetta. How do I find all my files on the MacBook Pro, or undo what I have done???
IGNORE the last post: he thought you are using Lion or Mountain Lion.
Since you are using Snow Leopard, you need to install Rosetta. It can be found on your Snow Leopard Install DVD in the Options section.
Once installed all should be well again.
Also, if your computer is connected to the internet when the Dialog Box about PowerPC applications comes up, it MIGHT allow you to download Rosetta from the internet. There has been some discussion that Apple has discontined internet download of Rosetta into Snow Leopard.
Someone else will have to address your lost files problem.
