Possible to get deleted trash box back?

First time poster here.
I accidentally deleted one of my 'trash' boxes. Under "Trash" I have "on my mac" and also "Comcast". I didn't really understand why I had the Comcast one and deleted it. It still shows there but it has now become only a way to go to the Comcast account page. I never did have a separate box for Comcast anywhere except under the Trash heading and that caused my confusion.
Now when I want to send things to the trash, I can only put them in the "on my Mac" box. The top level "Trash" won't accept it as it says the Comcast box won't let anything be deleted. Well, of course, like a newbie (which I am to Mac's) I deleted the Comcast trash box. This is on my Imac only. I did not do this on the MacBook Pro..learned the hard way!
Is there any way to fix this? I don't have a backup as yet, so that's not a possiblity at this time. I was hoping to repair this before I do a backup. Have not set up TM as yet.
Thank you to anyone who might be able to help.

Thank you Barry. Yes, Comcast is my mail provider. It is a POP account.
Now, if you could point me in the right direction to do that re-build, I would be ever so grateful. I did use the "rebuild" button on the Mail tool bar for that box and it did not help. Perhaps there is something else I could do?
As I mentioned, I am very new to the Mac world, and I get a little lost. Well, at age 73, I guess that's not hard to do! Been on Windows forever so lots of the terminology in Apple is quite different for me.

When working in iPhoto I kept getting a dialog box that asked if I wanted to delete the photo. I checked the little box that said do not show this again. Well, I want to get this warning box back but I don't know where to find it.

Hi I was organizing pictures in iphoto. I am new at this. I was deleting a bunch of duplicate pictures and I kept getting a 'warning box" that kept asking "are you sure you want to delete?" I knew I wanted to delete all these pics so I checked the box that said "check box if you dont want to see this warning." So checked the box. Now I want to get that warning box back. Any ideas? I can't find anything on the internet or manuals. thanks

Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
(On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
(Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

Is it possible to get the my searchengines back vertical with text as it always was, instead of seeing only the icons ?

in the menu bar at the top, there's the search bar. I have a lot of searchengines, and they show up when you press on the magnifying glass.
however since the latest update i guess. I only see the icons of my searchengines.
Is it possible to get them back vertically with text on the right of the icons. because i had them arranged in a specific order and knew exactly where the click when i performed a specific search.
now with only icons, it is more difficult because i have to hover over them to see the text which icon wich searchengine is.
so, i hope i can get them back to show up vertically :) with accompanied text.
best regards, dinny

That is the new Search Bar scheme which was introduced in Firefox 34, back in early December.
You can revert to the former scheme like this.
Open up '''about:config''' ''(typed in the Location Bar)''
Right-click and toggle this preference to '''''false'''''
'''browser.search.showOneOffButtons'''
Then restart Firefox.

Data recovery, possible to get the file structure back as well?

Hi Apple Smarties,
I closed my laptop lid on my external LaCie drive without ejecting the drive first (smart one!). After that the external drive wouldn't mount. I've used Data Rescue 3 to recover all the files from the drive... however it's just lumping all the files into one big batch :-( ...anybody know if it's possible to get the files into the correct files structure they were at before the drive got corrupted?
Assistance would be HUGELY appreciated.
Many thanks
Kind regards
Doug

How to get the "delete" check box back?

Hi Guys,
I just used the "Migrate to Interactive Report" feature. After doing so, the check box is gone that is used to indicate rows to delete. A copy of the region is marked as "disabled" and the check box is still there, but it's not in the newly created region. Without that check box, my page has no way to delete rows. How do I add the check box to the new Interactive Report region? I'd rather not re-create the page from scratch.
Thanks,
Kim
P.S. I'm using Apex 4.1 and Oracle 11g xe - all running on Windows 7.

How about something like this? Instead of a check box add a new column with a delete image, you can use something like delete.gif (#IMAGE_PREFIX#delete.gif). The downside is that will be deleting one at a time, but in my experience this may not be an issue.
Add a hidden item to hold the ID of the row your want to delete. We'll call it P1_ID.
The new column with the delete image will need to "branch" to a URL and use this code (ALL in one single line)
apex.confirm("Are you sure you want to delete?", {
request:"DELETE_ROW",
set:{"P1_ID":#ID#}
});Then add a page process that fires when the request is DELETE_ROW
Would probably look something like this:
delete from some_table where id = :P1_ID;
A similar technique can be used for checkboxes, but it's a little more advanced as you need to loop through the selections.
Oh and add the column to the IR you don't really need to select anything. Or better yet, you could re-use the ID column of the report if you have one as your delete column. The #ID# on the code above needs to be the name of your column. So if your column is EMPNO the above would be #EMPNO# instead of #ID#.
Hope this helps.

How to get old search box back

Yesterday my broswer updated and I now have version 36. This comes with a new search box. I had several search engines listed with different languages, now all i see in this stupid new version is the same icon, I can't see the labels anymore which had DE / FR / EN in. They all look the same now.
How do I go back to the old version? Who designed this? Some yank who can't speak any language other than english? I think I'll do what my colleagues have done and switch to chrome.
and why does this site require so many stupid steps to ask a question, and when I create an account is thinks i may have meant .com instead of .de for my email address... what kind of crap is this? Does everyone at mozilla live in america and only speak english?

Go to about:config and change '''browser.search.showOneOffButtons''' to '''false'''

Is it possible to get a check box's export value when it is OFF

Hi,
I'm wondering if I can set a check box export value to something like "S".
I'll want to check all boxes whose export value is "S", but I want to detect if the export value is "S" when the box is NOT checked. Is that possible?
Thanks in advance.

Another option is to use COUNTIF for the column of checkboxes.
=COUNTIF(B2:B9, TRUE)*3.75
Any of the cells between B2 and B9 with a checkbox will be included in the count of people that paid the 3.75 amount. It does of course assume that the amount received is always 3.75.

Is it possible to get your camera roll back on am ipod touch if itunes swiped it; from restoring it?

if so how please help there is alot of important things on there!:( its an ipod touch 4th generation!

I do not understand everything you are saying. What is "itunes wiped it; from restoring it" mean?
If you synced your iPod after you took the photos the photos should be in the iPod backup and you should be able to get them back by restoring your iPod from backup.

Security deposit issue: customer service saying it is never possible to get it back

To anyone who might be able to straighten things out here,
first of all, I am not asking for a security deposit back right away. I was just asking for a possibility of getting my security deposit back and on which condition I can get it back. However, when I called up (800)-922-0204 and spoke with counselor after waiting half-an-hour, she told me I am unable to get security deposit back at all since it is non-refundable to anyone. I questioned her why is it called a deposit in such case, and she kept on insisting that security deposit is something I pay in the beginning to open up an account and it cannot be returned at all. I was puzzled since the guy at the retailer shop and he told me I can probably get the deposit back at some time later and check the estimated date to get the deposit back if I called the number specified above and talked to a counselor.
So I checked up the answers posted up in this forum and figured out that indeed security deposit is returned after certain criteria is met. I was really irritated and upset, but that's something I have to deal with, so I'll pass on that. Following are my conditions on Verizon account and I hope someone can tell me when I can possibly get the deposit back and/or where I can get such info.:
I first opened up my account in Verizon 4 years ago with $400 deposit (Aug. 2014). Then, as a Korean male, I had to go back to my country to serve in military service that I had my account suspended for about 3 consecutive years. (Thanks to the Verizon retailer who helped me out at Oakdale Mall.) The first condition to get the security deposit back was "to have 12 consecutive monthly bills paid without delay (No suspensions while doing so)" and I know it was not done since I suspended my account at around 10th month (June 5th, 2011). I re-activated my account with a different phone and a plan on Aug. 30th, 2014 and the guy at the Verizon service center in Vestal, NY told me to check when I can possibly get my security deposit back.
Sorry to leave such a long message here but I guess I am not good at summarizing things here. Please take the pain and help this poor kid out.
Thanks to y'all who reads it & leaves a possible answer to my question.

First of all, I assume you have a misprint and you opened your account ~4 years ago in August of 2010, not 2014(1 month ago).
Next, it appears you had your account suspended for 3 years after completing only 10 months of service and have recently re-activated the account.
If the above information is correct in your case, I would assume you will get your deposit back 12 months after reactivating your account without any further suspensions and/or late payments. So I would guess you will be eligible to get your deposit back in August, 2015.

How do I get my application data back after OS upgrade?

First I tried to update to iOS 5.1.1 by downloading the .ipsw file from Apple and shift-clicking the Update button. I got Unknown Error 3014, which apparently is a known error and is to do with contacting the Apple server. So I tried again, and this time the iPad got stuck in the "Connected to iTunes" screen, and I searched online and found that the only real way out of this is to do a Factory Restore to iOS 6. Oh well, I would have to put up with the new Maps app but that isn't too bad.
So I did that, then I selected to restore"Phil's iPad" onto it, but my machine ran out of disk space. I cleared up some space, and got it to restore again, but I think that what happened in between was that it automatically backed up and synced the new half-restored state to my PC. So when I came to restore it, it only restored half of it. Since I had iTunes set up to sync every time I connect, the system that keeps the most recent three backups had deleted all the backups that were of any use and all I ended up with are three backup states that are all missing my application data. All my game progress is now gone, all my photos and home videos, all contacts, notes, all gone and I think gone for ever.
Any idea whether it's possible to get all my stuff back?

All apps and media should be in iTunes on your computer, if you've failed to transfer purchases from the device to iTunes it is possible to download past purchases.
Downloading past purchases from iTunes
Contacts and calendars are in whatever application on the computer or cloud service you have configured them to sync with.
Pictures and videos taken with the device are designed to be copied off to the computer regularly.
Frankly, it is not very smart to rely on a device that can be so easily lost, stolen, or damaged as sole storage of your imporant data, I'd dare say it is boarding on completely moronic.

Need password dialogue box back.

In iPhoto I'm locked out from sending photos in an email. Only one opportunity to type in password correctly. Anyone know how to get the password box back? Thanks

You shouldn't need to enter a password each time. Go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane, delete the email account, close and open iPhoto and add the account back.
A better option IMO is to set Mail as the email client in iPhoto's General preference pane.

AOL "Trash" Box

Just purchased a new Touch and was able to set up AOL and GMAIL email accounts. When ready to delete an AOL email, I get the message, "Unable to Move message. The message could not be moved to the mailbox Trash." I looked at the GMAIL boxes and there is one called "Trash." However, there is not one in AOL which leads me to believe this is why I cannot delete AOL messages. How do I get the "Trash" box in the AOL account?

hello try the following
Settings - Mail - Tap on AOL account - Tap on Advanced - Tap on SPAM so you get a check mark - Then tap on Trash on the very top so you get a check mark. Now go check AOL mail and attempt to delete.
