Own mistake - all mails gone - any help?

Hi there,
I have just realized what a big mistake I just made. I have trouble sending a particular email. While on the helpline with my ISP we tried all sorts of things and one of them was deleting the account and creating it all over again.
And now of course to my absolute horror all the emails to that account are gone - puff. This is very, very bad because there were some important ones.
Is there any way at all to retrieve those emails??? I guess not but I'm just trying my luck.

Stop using your Mac a.s.a.p. as you may be overwriting essential data. Use a serious data recovery program to bring the files back. Data Rescue II is an example of such a program.
The folder you need to rescue is:
userhome/library/mail/mailboxes

When you email a picture from Photos, you can choose the size.

Need help with putting all music from phone onto laptop, pretty sure I did use another computer at some point to put music onto my phone, will this have affect trying to back all music up on laptop? Any help welcome.

The iphone is not a backup/storage device.
The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases

How can I delete multiple duplicate songs at one time? I would really like to wipe out my music library and just reinstall all files. Any Help is appreciated.

I am trying to cleanout my iTunes Music Library. I would prefer to wipeout the music library and then reinstall my music. I do not know how to delete multiple files besides doing one by one. Any help is much appreciated. Thank You.

All data gone pls help

Hi,
I had massive problems with my applications on my Blackberry Z10 (STL 100-2) after I once used the flight mode. The battery was warm, some apps did not start. I decided to reboot the phone and it was just stuck on the blackberry logo (not the loading circle). I tried everything, pushing the power button for 10 seconds, battery pull, connecting to the PC with USB with and without the battery, loading on the wall charger for one hour, then taking out the battery for a millisecond, while the phone was charging and then putting the battery back, another battery from a properly working device and and and. The phone was stuck in the loop. If I tried to shut it off, the LED was red for couple of seconds and then it showed the BlackBerry Logo again, for hours. In the beginning of this catastrophe I just left it like that for hours but it got so warm that I did not want to risk the motherboard to melt.
I did not want to factory reset the divice (restore), since I did not have a backup of my stuff (I usually don't connect my phone to computers). The most important were my Remember app notes so the application data (or settings data?)
Finally I decided to do a software update as I actually thought it wouldn't do anything to my data. At least it was written on the official Blackberry website: "Data and settings on your device before you begin updating your software will be on your device when the software update is complete." I visited the BB website and after one hour my phone booted but all data was gone.
I updated the software using the BlackBerry website but it required to start BlackBerry Link. Today I have found an interesting folder: Application Loader (User-AppData (hidden folder)-Local-Research in Motion-Application Loader...). There are two big files, format .bar and .signed. According to the time it was saved at it was was BEFORE the update had been started. I read somewhere that by updating a BlackBerry with BB Link the phone system will be backuped automatically. So it could probably be the backup files. However it is not the usual file format .bbb or .ipd. and these are two files.
Any Ideas what these files are? How can I open them?
My files have to be somewhere. I really need my Remember App notes (they were not synched mit Evernote or something like that). I also never used an SD Card or "Backup pro" or "Password keeper".
The new Software Version is 10.2.1.2977 (OS 10.2.1.3247). I have already tried it with couple of recovery tools like Recuva however it did not work since my phone is not recognized as a flash or physical mass storage device. In my computer it is shown as networkaddress so non of the recovery tools is able to access the internal memory. The mass storage mode is by the way only for the inserted sd cards...
Is there a possibily to recover the notes despite the update (or 10 seconds reset) with help of both .bar and .signed files? Or any other ideas? Please help!!!!
Many prethanks!!!

there is no way to get native access to the device like you can with a USB drive on a PC with recovery software
if link did a backup, then you should be able to restore from that backup

Update thumbnails - all photos gone, please help

I was prompted to update my thumbnails in my iPhoto library. I chose yes and now all my photos are gone.
I tried already the alt key and I am being asked to create a new library or to choose an existing one. If I choose again the existing one it opens empty. I tried as well the iPhotolibrary Manager but it recovers only my photos, no events, dates and the library is then a bit messy.
Anyone experiencing the same problem? I am using iPhoto '08 7.1.5.

This won't help you know but in the future if you have similar issues the tip at the end of my signature below can help you quickly recover.
*HOWEVER, I think I've found a way you can get that Library6.iPhoto file out of TM:*
1 - while *in the Finder* open the Backups.backupdb folder on your Time Machine drive.
2 - drill down to the Pictures folder in your user account for the date just before the problem occurred.
3 - Control+click on the iPhoto library package and select Show Package contents from the drop down menu.
4 - locate and drag the Library6.iPhoto file to your desktop.
5 - replace the damaged file with the one from TM.
I think that will do it.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

Conected ipod to pc all songs gone please help

**Hi ALL,**
**Need help please, my hard drive died on the computer so i replaced it went to sign in on the itunes store and went to sync and all of my songs,photos,games have gone from my ipod is there any way i can get them all back????**
**Please help, thaks for youre time**
*Fletch*

Sounds as if you synced your iPod to an empty iTunes library.
If you have no back up anyplace else, then your only hope is some data recovery software as mentioned in this post.

Some people say that they've been allowed a re-download of iTunes purchases for various reasons when they've contacted Apple.
You can only ask but please be aware that Apple are not obligated to do this for you.

ICal ALL Events Gone PLEASE HELP

Hello... Need urgent help! One afternoon I was finishing up work and closed everything as normal... in the morning, ALL the events on iCal were gone... just disappeared. I have a blackberry 8350i and figured there was a mishap between the two so I brought a 12" I also have only to find out that all the events there were gone too; and I never sync the BB with the 12". Both PB's were synched with my iPhone without any problems ever. Does anyone know what's going on? Thanks in advanced.

Hey Ferd,
So you think there is something corrupted in the BB that made the iCal erase the whole 09? One thing is for sure, the data in the BB is intact. All events there seem to be fine and yet it won´t sync with iCal (I use PocketMac because when this BB came out there was no other option to sync with mac). In fact, I've been trying to sync with a PC but I haven't had the time to seat down to spend a whole afternoon trying to figure out Win Vista... so far "I think" I managed to backup the calendar and contacts but not really sure. Still trying to find an app to sync with... maybe that way I can make a backup to use with iCal. Do you know of any other way to sync the BB with another app in either mac or pc to do this???
I have a time machine backup from june 29th which I used this morning. I boot from the Leopard dvd and restore from that date but didn´t remember that the applications were on the exception list. One thing, though, when the restore was finished, iCal displayed the reminder window with a bunch of the events... but since I had no apps i couldn´t say if everything was there. My intention, now that I think of it, is to go back to that backup, find the iCal software somewhere and install it to see what´s in there. If there´s everything, needless to say I´ll just make a backup, save it and restore again to the latest.
I was trying to restore from .ics files but just realize they have to be .icbu... hence the gray.
Right now I'm downloading the Combo Update to see how it goes.

Windows PC Crashed - All Content Gone. Help!

My Dell laptop recently crashed and I lost everything. 10 years worth of movies\music I had downloaded from iTunes, as well as countless CDs that I own that were converted to MP3 with iTunes. I had no backups. I have two questions:
1. Is there any way to retrieve my iTunes content that I previously purchased?
2. I am done with PCs and ready to convert to an iMac. If I had the iMac, what would the best backup solution be for all my files? Time Machine, MobileMe, or something else? I prefer a cloud solution, if possible. Hardware can always crash, as my Dell has proved.
Thanks in advance for your help.

No backup is not good.
You can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod/iphone/ipad. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
There are many backup options, cloud and otherwise.
It is highly unlikely that your computer and backup would both fail at the same time.

All mail gone...

This new Mail application is getting me down. Haven't been able to send any mail for the last month... mail offline etc etc. Now all my mail has disappeared after a software update. Can't seem to restore or rebuild. My partner's address is ok, she only had about 5 messages, mine with about 400 has DISAPPEARED! Help anyone. Not tremendously happy with Leopard so far. Lamanuk.

Here's how I was able to get my messages back into mail:
-Just launch mail, but DO NOT have it import the messages.
-Add a new account, and enter your account info (server, username, password, etc.). The incoming server name and type (POP, IMAP) must correspond to the name of the folder in your Library.
-Mail will create the account and automatically import all the old messages it finds in your Library (sent, deleted, inbox, etc)
-Add new accounts for the rest of your email addresses.
Your email should be back to the way it was before it crashed. If that doesn't work, try deleting the 'Envelope Index' file in your Mail Library and then try the steps above.

Uploaded pictures to iPhoto but computer froze and I did a force quit - now all pictures gone! Help!!

I uploaded pictures to iPhoto library, I was attempting to share one picture (out of 350!) and computer froze for over 5 minutes. I did a "force quit" and when I reopend iPhoto all pictures were gone. The library shows the events I created but when I click on it, there are no pictures. Please help!

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 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. .

Rebuild mailbox, all mails gone...

One mailbox of mine showed only headers but no message in the body. So i tried to rebuild. Now all (but one) mails the inbox are gone. In the send box the header are there, the body messages not (don't think i will rebuild again..). And yes, i didn't backup lately....
So were can i find the lost messages (or does the system dispose of them immidiately when you hit "rebuild")

Rebuild does not dispose of messages. Did you wait patiently for Rebuild to finish, and wait until message list disappears before reappearing?
However, if the message bodies were already gone, then Rebuild would further remove the list messages.
In the Finder, open Home/Library/Mail -- if the mailbox rebuilt was the Inbox, then open the Account folder (likely a POP Account folder?), and further open the INBOX.mbox folder, and then further open the Messages folder within. How many xxxx.emlx files is the Messages folder reported to contain?
If the mailbox in question was one you created, then in the Mail folder, find and open the Mailboxes folder where that would reside, and make the same examination.

HT1338 MacBook now takes 1 minute to go to sleep after all windows closed, any help to return it to normal

MacBook now takes >1 minute to go to sleep after all applications are closed. Need help in returning it to the normal 10 sec for sleep

First, Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk. You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Repair reports and if DU was able to repair them. This could just be a start in repairs and you may need a better utility to finish the job.
Then Repair Permissions.
No need to report any Permissions errors........we all get them.
