Wanted to add that the reason it asked me to set up the new phone as "new" was because the IOS was outdated on the one they gave me and the backup wouldn't occur

I need help restoring data from my time machine.

1) On the time machine, where do I find the TRASH file that is located on the dock in my desktop? I'd like to restore that to a prior date but can't find it.
2) I DID A VERY BAD THING & need help to get back to where I was before. I wanted to delete files that were taking up lots of space. My OTHER section was using 160G. I downloaded OmniDiskSweep and found that 120G was being used by my virtual machine (I run Quicken in Windows, through VMware). I started to delete files that were called Snapshots assuming these were the snapshots that the program regularly takes of my files. Apparently they were not. I also deleted the program Windows XP Professional because that was never used. When I try to open VM or quicken program, it says it is missing a particular snapshot, i.e. Snapshot 11104. I deleted about 20 of these. I left all the other files that said Windows XP Home Edition. But now it shows that I only have the Professional Edition, even though that's what I deleted. I'm trying to restore from Time Machine and it looks like the information is not there - I've tried various different backups and nothing seems to have the information I need. The earliest back up I have is from 5/7 when I started time machine on a new external 1TB HD. Would that have the information I need since it's the very first back up? Please Help.

I am assuming it's real data because it's taking up storage on my HD. It falls in the category "other" and the total of this section is 160G. Here is a snapshot of the virtual machine.
I also took a shot of the VM snapshots & it tells how much space is being taken up by the snapshots.
I've now changed the number of snapshots taken down to 12 (didn't know I had this option) & I can delete alot of the 21 snapshots that have already been saved. I have no idea how much of the HD was set aside for the VM because someone else installed it for me 5 years ago. I've had enough problems with it over the years that I've wanted to switch to Quicken for Mac or find another financial program to use. I've upgraded the VM 2x over the years, but didn't want to spend $100 for Version 5. I understand the concept of a VM but that's about all.
I did do the disk cleanup in Windows on the C drive. I deleted 700 MB of temporary files and then compressed 4G of data down to 2G. While the cleanup was progressing it said that the C drive was 30.99G and 78% of it was free. That just doesn't make sense to me. It recommended a defrag, so I did that also.
I'm pretty sure it's real data because I recently had to switch from a 320G external HD for TM, to a 1T HD. One TM backup was over 300G which I found to be excessive because I basically use my computer for mail, some word processing, and my financial data.
Thanks again for all your help. I really appreciate it.

Need help restoring data

I have several disparate Windows 2003-based database with limited storage and memory resources. Each database is running in NOARCHIVE mode. I have a need to backup the database prior to upgrades. If errors occur, I'd like to be able to restore the database to its previous state.
However, each time I perform a restore/recover, I see the updated data in all tables rather than the original data from the backup. Am I under the false impression that RMAN can restore data within the same database? Any help is appreciated.
I'll attach the scripts that made use of see if there is anything that I am missing.
CREATING A BACKUP
1.     rman nocatalog
2.     RMAN> connect target sys@ncr1
3.     RMAN>shutdown immediate;
4.     RMAN>startup mount;
5.     RMAN> report schema;
6.     RMAN> backup tag ncr178_pre_upgrade database;
7.     RMAN> list backup;
8.     RMAN> startup
RESTORING THE DATABASE
1.     rman nocatalog
2.     RMAN> connect target sys@ncr1
3.     startup force mount;
4.     restore database;
5.     recover database;
6.     alter database open;

Rman will always try to recover the DB to the point of failure unless otherwise specified. If the changes made by you is available in the online logs(since your DB is running in noarchivelog), it will always apply that changes too while recovering.
if you execute the restore commands shown by you, RMAN will restore the datafiles (if any file is missing and backup is available), apply the changes (if available in the logs) and open it..
Rman is more suited for productin DB s where DB is running most of the time and in archivelog mode. In your scenario, I think, a cold backup is suited...

Need help restoring data after security wipe - Urgent!

Hello,
I am in need of urgent help.
I had saved some really important information in the memos of my blackberry curve 8520. After that I changed my phone to a non-blackberry phone. but I still had the old phone but it was kept off most of the time. I had backups from June 13, 2013. very recently I wiped the phone. (Very big mistake) Now I am in need of that information that I had saved in the memos. Now when I visit the blackberry protect website through my laptop it shows that the back up is there with 15 memos and many other things. but when I open the app of blackberry protect on my phone it shows that there are no previous versions of backup available to restore.
Now please tell me and help with this. I badly need the information that I have stored in the memos of this earlier back up version.
Another thing I have noticed is that there is a problem in the link between BB Protect website and the BB Protect app on my phone. For example, if I click on "Play Sound" or "Display a message" on the BB Protect website, it tries to communicate with the device and then waits for the device to respond and then it fails to do the function clicked.

Hello,
Please check very very very very (did I say that enough?) carefully that you are using the exact same BBID credentials on your new BB that you are logging into via PC.
If they are not the same, then that explains why it cannot present you with those backups on the device...they are associated to a different BBID than you are using on your BB now. To change your BB over to the BBID that contains the backups you require, you must WIPE the BB:
KB26694 How to change the BlackBerry ID on a BlackBerry PlayBook tablet or BlackBerry smartphone
However, be very careful when you then associate the BB to that other BBID...done incorrectly, you can lose your prior backups...refer:
KB31489 BlackBerry Protect for BlackBerry smartphones does not display any backup files to restore
Then again, if you are using the exact same BBID on both the device as well as via PC/browser, then the method discussed in KB31489 may already have been done incorrectly, wiping out those prior backups (and there is no way to retrieve them).
Good luck and let us know!

Need help restoring data to a new iphone

My old iphone stopped working and I got a replacement. When I plugged the new phone in to restore it, it asked me to first set it up as a new phone so I chose that option instead of the back up. Now I can't figure out how to backup with the old data. All my contacts and data is missing. Help

Wanted to add that the reason it asked me to set up the new phone as "new" was because the IOS was outdated on the one they gave me and the backup wouldn't occur

How do I easily transfer data from Palm Desktop to iCal and Address Book?

Hello,
How do I easily transfer data from Palm Desktop to iCal and Address Book?
I have a Palm Tungsten E handheld which just died.
Luckily, all my data is backed-up on my Palm Desktop V4.2.1.
I just bought an iPod-Touch, so I would like to easily transfer
all my data (Addressbook, Calendar, etc) from the Palm Desktop
on my Mac (OSX 10.5) to the equivalent Mac applications
(Address Book, iCal) which will then allow me to view and update
them on my iPod-Touch.
How do I easily transfer data from Palm Desktop to iCal and Address Book?
Thanks in advance for your help.
David

Hi David. The contact information is straightforward. Bring up your Address List in Palm Desktop, then select Export under file. You pick vCard as the format, and save the resulting file where ever. In Address Book, you then select Import --> vCards under file. You may need to edit things like birthdays by hand afterwards.
I am still working on the Calendar information.

I need help restoreing my ipod nano 3rd gen so its like new

I need help restoreing my ipod nano 3rd gen so its like new

Plug it to your computer using iPod USB Cable (any cable should work excluding iPhone 5 and Shuffle cables)...... when you see your iPod in iTunes go to that iPod and click restore...... the whole process should take (depending on what you have on your iPod and its is up to date) it should take no longer than 30 minutes...... then it will ask if you want to set up as new iPod or restore from back-up (itunes back up), since you said:
so its like new
click set as new iPod and follow through what they said.

Need Help with Dates

I am printing a calendar and certain events will be helds on certain dates.
One can edit the event if it has not passed the date. Events in the past can be viewed but not edited.
When I query the database the date must be formatted dd-MMM-yy
I am able to get today's date by doing this:
java.util.Date today = new java.util.Date();
String formatString = "dd-MMM-yy";
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(formatString);
String today_str = sdf.format(today);
My code for printing the calendar: I left out some of the table formatting in the JSP page.
GregorianCalendar d = new GregorianCalendar();
int today = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
int month = d.get(Calendar.MONTH);
d.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,1);
int weekday = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
for(int i = Calendar.SUNDAY; i < weekday; i++)
out.print("<td> </td>");
do {
int day = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
out.print("<td>" + day + "</td>");
String formatString = "dd-MMM-yy";
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(formatString);
//if(event exists on this day
// Get results
// print link for viewing
// if (after today) print link for edit
if(weekday == Calendar.SATURDAY)
out.println("</tr><tr valign=top>");
d.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,1);
weekday = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
} while(d.get(Calendar.MONTH) == month);
if(weekday != Calendar.SUNDAY)
System.out.println();
The part I need help on is this:
//if(event exists on this day
// Get results
// print link for viewing
// if (after today) print link for edit
I'm looping through each day of the month to print the days. I have the month, day, year as integers. How can I create a date object out of that and compare it to today's date to test if it's before or after today???
All the function in the Date class that I think would do this have been deprecated.

Need Help with Dates
Here is some information about dates:
There are many edible palm fruits, and one of the most widespread and favored of these is the data (Phoenix dactylifera). Dates were cultivated in ancient land from Mesopotamia to prehistoric Egypt, possibly as early as 6000 B.C. Then--as now--dates were a staple for the natives of those dry regions. Much later, Arabs spread dates around northern Africa, and dates were introduced into California by the Spaniards in 1765, around Mission San Ignacio.
The date prefers dry, hot climates, because date fruits are injured at temperatures of 20 degrees F, and the damp climate of the California coast was not favorable for fruit production. In the mid-1800s, the date industry developed in California's hot interior valleys and in Arizona. Now the date industry in the United States is localized mostly in the Coachella Valley, where the sandy soils permit the plants to be deeply irrigated. Today the new varieties, mostly introduced in this century, produce about 40 million pounds of dates per annum, or over 60% of the dates consumed in this country. The rest are imported mainly from Persia. According to one survey, about one million people are engaged entirely in date palm cultivation worldwide.
Hope that helps.

How do I transfer my data from Palm desktop to iPhone?

How do I transfer my data from Palm desktop to iPhone? I just gave up my Treo 755p in favor of an iPhone. How do I transfer my Treo data (contacts, calendars)

I believe that when you boot your computer for the first time and you are following the onscreen instructions you are prompted whether you want to transfer data from an old mac or PC. If you click 'transfer from an old mac' and follow the onscreen instructions, this may work.
If you have already skipped this step you could use iCloud to transfer data. If you make sure that everything you want to transfer is synced in iCloud, this may also work.

HT4859 I need help restore my old messages and pictures to my phone. I did a restore from my computer and my boyfriends stuff downloaded on my phone. How do I get my stuff back?

I need help restoring all of my pictures and infor to my phone. My ex boyfriend info started downloading on my phone and earsed all of my info

Mission accomplished. While waiting for your reply,. I found an article that mentioned a copy/paste of the following code from the old pref.js to the new pref.js:
user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo.position", 0);
user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_1.description", "Outlook Express Address Book");
user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_1.dirType", 2);
user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_1.filename", "impab-1.mab");
user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_2.description", "Outlook Express Address Book");
user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_2.dirType", 2);
user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_2.filename", "impab.mab");
That identified the impab.mab file, and now all my contacts are showing.

Hi,
You'll need to get javascript date from LCD field, and calculate & compare with the future date in javascript date.
try following script;
var sDate = StartDate.rawValue;
var wkStartDate = util.scand("yyyy-mm-dd", sDate);
var nYear = wkStartDate.getFullYear();
var nMonth = wkStartDate.getMonth();
var nDay = wkStartDate.getDate();
var wkFutureDate = new Date(nYear + 30 , nMonth, nDay);
sDate = EndDate.rawValue;
var wkEndDate = util.scand("yyyy-mm-dd", sDate);
if (wkEndDate.getTime() > wkFutureDate.getTime()){
xfa.host.messageBox("May not be greater than 30 years from the start date");
xfa.host.setFocus(this);
