  • Maverick OSX update crashed my computer and OS. My harddrive and OSX and WIN have been lost and are irreparable. What are the next steps?

    Mavericks has crashed my MacBook Pro.
    I was offered the upgrade as a free and reccomended Apple Software Update that arrived on my computer.
    I installed Maverick received an error during installation saying the HD was bad. I ran utility disk and internet recovery and attempted to boot in safe mode to no avail. My computer no longer had an OS. (I ran both OSX and WIN on my new HD). I took it to the Apple store and it was determined it was a software failure (Maverick) and not my harddrive. The tech at Apple told me I could take it to a data recovery place on MY dime to attempt to recover anything from the HD. I ran several expensive architectural programs which are now lost. Any advice as which aveneue to take next is much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    Note, backing up is not a choice in computing.  You either value your data or you don't.  And when you install new software the drive is that much more at risk, if it is marginal.  This is true of any operating system update because of the number of changes that happen at once.

    At some point in the past, I synched with Gmail.  Looking at my Gmail contacts, I can see that it's missing the same contacts I'm currently missing from the iPhone.  Is it possible that I may have done that sync back in October 2009 (but not since) and then somehow recently over-wrote my contacts content with whatever was there?  Is there some setting I could have tripped to make something like that happen?

  • Since the FF8 update, all bookmarks were lost and none of the recommended methods for restoring lost bookmarks work; I always get "Unable to process to backup file" even though the backup .json files still exist

    Since a FF8 update, all bookmarks were lost and none of the recommended restore methods work, even though I have been able to find the backup ".json" files; I continually get "Unable to process the backup file" for all methods of importing or restoring the bookmarks from the .json files. As others note, I can also no longer add any new bookmarks to my now empty bookmarks tab. My profile has not changed, so that's not the problem. This is really a pain.

    Did you try to delete the file places.sqlite to make Firefox rebuild the places.sqlite database file from a JSON backup?
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_process_the_backup_file_-_Firefox
    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Upgraded to Elements 11 from 9.  Form windows 7 to MacOS.  Events and dates seem to have been lost

    After importing catalog, events and dates seem to have been lost.  People tags imported OK.  Thoughts?

    Same issue.  I have multiple ATV2 and ATV3 - none could access home sharing after updating to 11.1.
    I've learned my lesson from previous iTunes updates, so I always have a backup of my library.  So I uninstalled 11.1 and deleted every iTunes folder I could find on my drive (important because I didn't do this the first time, and home sharing did not work).  Then I restored my library from backup (iTunes folder), and installed iTunes 11.0.5.  Home sharing works, with:
    ATV3 with updates
    ATV2 with updates
    ATV3 without updates
    ATV2 without updates (not tested yet)
    Yea, so something is wrong with iTunes 11.1 with home sharing.  Hopefully Apple will address.  If not, hopefully they will support 11.1 for a very long time.

  • My old computer (a Sony) with my iTunes crashed. I have a new MAC and want to make sure I can keep all of my music (mostly from old CD's that have been lost). I bought iTunes match hoping that would work but it isn't using the data on my phone. HELP!

    Since you have purchased a new Mac (which, BTW, is not typed in all capitals) why not buy a Time Capsule <http://www.apple.com/airport-time-capsule/> which is designed specifically to work with OS X and Time Machine?
    You don't say what part of your Sony "crashed." If it was not the HDD it is possible to take the computer apart, put the HDD in an external case, then recover the data off of it (including the music) simply drag-n-drop. If it was the HDD that "crashed" that makes it more difficult.
    If you are able to recover the music from the Sony you can then add it to the iTunes library on the Mac and iTunes Match will then scan, match and upload the tracks to be mirrored in the cloud.

  • In 10.8, the file info window's "Kind:" read "Application"/etc. for 64-bit items and "Application (32-bit)"/etc. for 32-bit items. The "(32-bit)" part seems to have been lost in Mavericks. How do I determine if an item is 32 or 64-bit in Mavericks?

    In 10.8, the file info window’s “Kind:” read “Application”/etc. for 64-bit items and “Application (32-bit)”/etc. for 32-bit items.
    The “(32-bit)” part seems to have been lost in Mavericks. How do I determine if an item is 32 or 64-bit in Mavericks?

    1. Launch System Information into its 'report' mode. (A quick way to do this is by holding down the option key while clicking on the Apple menu item, which causes "About this Mac" to change to that.)
    2. From the list on the left, under "Software" click on "Applications." (If you don't see the Applications item, click on "Show more information" from the "File" menu.)
    3. Wait a minute or so for the report to finish.
    4. The last column in the report is "64-bit (Intel)." (You may need to scroll the window to the right to see it.) Click on that heading to sort the list alphabetically. Anything with a "no" is 32 bit.

  • Have been lost all photos in tim installation iOS4

    Help me, please!!!
    I have IPhone 3G with software 3.0.
    I downloaded iOS 4 04 July 2010. And after reboot (installation) all photos in Camera Roll and Albums have been lost (are erased)!!! Why it happens? How can I return all my Photos???

    I, too, lost many, many (~300) photos off of the Camera Roll when I upgraded to 4.0. None of the photos from the "folders" that I sync from my laptop were lost so this seems to be a problem with the Camera Roll only. Help!

  • Exported masters (RAW nefs) have been lost

    Hi there, hoping you might be able to help.
    I use Aperture everyday to organise my photo workload as referenced files - storing the original RAW nefs in Pictures, I stress I am a basic user.
    After star rating a batch of approx. 500 photos I wanted to edit I decided to make a new folder in Pictures for them by exporting the originals.
    Aperture did the exporting thing and then showed up an error message that the export had failed.
    So I assumed the originals would not have been moved and found when looking in the original Pictures folder that they were not there anymore. The Aperture previews are showing up the yellow triangle that the master file is missing. I have searched by date and name but think they have all been lost.
    I have tried the drill disk software which found the files so I happily paid the upgrade fee to recover them.
    Once recovered I could see the files in Aperture again without the yellow triangle this time, but when try exporting then they are sadly all corrupted.
    I know I can try rebuilding the Aperture database but thought I should seek help first on what I should try next.
    I have the original flash cards with half the images on which is good, but the other half were on a card I have since reformatted and used for other jobs.
    Learning the hard way that I really should be backing up!
    Thank you

    Just to clarify, I imported 2000 masters, I edited them a week later (this beng last Friday) getting approx. 500 ready for export.
    After the export failed the other 1500 masters were still in the original location - as they still are now.
    I don't see how only the 500 that I chose to edit could have been missing before I performed the export - that doesnt make any sense. The 500 images I exported are exactly the files that have been lost.
    Sadly I can't re-import all the masters. They were shot on 2 x CF cards and I only have one available.
    I have reimported the ones I do have and spent the afternoon relocating the referenced files. So thankfully I have some back but not all.
    I suppose if I had them all I wouldn't be needing to ask for help here
    The 'reprocess original' command is greyed out for the files still left with a yellow triangle, so I guess as the master really has been lost this isn't an option either.
    I am stumped and really quite worried about Aperture now, its bee a fantastic application for me over the past 18 months but has sadly resulted in a big disappointment.
    The discussion on Aperture Expert that I have been having the last few days seems to confirm that this is a confirmed bug by Apple - gutted to say the least.
    Many thanks for your input though Leonie, anything else you can suggest as I am almost all out!
