Recover deleted collection members

Hi All,
Need some direction in handling a situation where there was a deletion of members in one of the collection which resulted in removing all reporting SCCM clients from all collections. This went unnoticed as the main admin was on vacation. Now we have new
collection members and have a DB backup which has the old collection members.
What would be the best way of getting the data from the backup restored to the production so we have the collection members in all collections as before, maintain the newly made changes after the deletion and ensure that this process does not rerun the advertisements
on the end users system during the entire process.
Thanks in advance
-Vijay

The resources have come back in All systems and are missing from the advertised collections as they were added as Direct members. We are now checking if there is a way in adding these machines (manually if needed) without triggering the advertisement.
Is there a way you can guide me in that way or something similar. We do not want the end users getting the advertisements again and majority of them having to get the customization back after the re-install caused
-Vijay

How to recover deleted systems in "All Systems" collection in SCCM 2012

Hi Everyone,
how to recover deleted systems in "All Systems" collection in SCCM 2012 and also I had one system which is by accidentally deleted, I know the system name, but I cannot able to add the system manually to Device Collections, is
there any solution for this...
I had discovered many systems using discovery, I recovered some systems but not all the systems..
Please suggest...
saikumar CH

just a follow up on Torstens reply. You will see the discovery records show up in the console without having the client installed. That will be corrected when clients perform a hardware inventory re-sync. It all happens automatically, no panic and don't
reinstall the clients.

Recover Deleted Offline File in Window's 7

Documents that were suppose to sync with the server had not synced in months. The filess I am sure were being saved to the offline file cache. The offline file cache was deleted by using microsoft hotfix 50561 (kb230738), reinitalizing the cache and correcting
the save path. The documents are very important. I researched and found the xp tool for recovering deleted offline files. csccmd.exe by using the command
csccmd.exe /extract /target:c:\docs /recurse
Is There a tool like this for windows 7? is there a way to recover the lost files. Previous versions and system restore was not enabled and I have not been able to enable then.

Hi ShaneC_76,

Do you back up via computer or iCloud? If you backup via computer and you have not backed up over your last one with the pics, restore your latest backup.
I collected two methods to recover lost data from iOS devices:
Method 1: Restore from your iCloud backup
Restore from your iCloud backup, if you used iCloud to backup your phone, see iCloud: Backup and restore overview, or estore from a backup you made with iTunes on your mac or PC.
Method 2: recover with iPad Data Recovery software
Even the data was deleted from iPad, but it is still stored in the NAND flash drive, with iPad data recovery, uses can easily recover deleted photos on iPad 2.
Hi friend,
The following is the procedure for solving the problem of restore deleted photos in iPad 2.
At first you have to go to home screen.
Then tap on to the menu screen.
Now press the settings option.
There the option of 'iCloud' is to be selected.
After that the username and password are to be entered for logging into the account.
Then in order to restore the backup,you can press the backup option.
Now the backup is to be restored.
After that the device is to be restored.
Thanks.

How to delete the members in one dimension use the maxl script

i have question that i want to delete the members in one dimension useing the maxl script, but i do not know how to do it. can the maxl delete the members in one dimension? if can, please provide an sample script, thank you so mcuh.

MaxL does not have commands to alter an outline directly, except the reset command which can delete all dimensions but not members selectively. The best you could do would be to run a rules file (import dimensions) using a file that contains the members you want to keepload rule for the dimension. As typical the warning is to test this first before you do it on a production database

HOW can i delete the members in dim using MAXL

Hi All,
I want to delete the all the memebers for dimensions before reloading so how ca n i write the maxl script for this to delete the members in the dimensions
plz can any one help on this its very urjent ,
It would be appriciated ...
Thanks

There is no way to alter an outline with MaxL, MaxL is an admin language for processing. The only option, as Glenn mentioned is to issue the reset all command to blow away everything. But you probably don't want to do that, so instead you use Maxl to run a series of load rules to achieve your goal.
Load rules do not have functionality to delete outline members, it does have a feature however that allows you to remove unspecified members from a dimension build, so when loading in your members, if existing members are not in the import, they are removed. So Glenn's point was to create a source file with a single dummy member. When you load using "Remove Unspecified" it will delete all the members and just keep the one dummy member. Then when you go back a second time and actually load the real members, the dummy member will be removed and you will have a clean dim with only your new members. This is a work around solution, but it's what a lot of people do.
Now if you have 15 dimensions you need to do this with, you might want to take a slightly different approach. I'm assuming 15 dimensions is probably an ASO cube and this method will be preferable to avoid outline fragmentation.
Create a copy of your outline with all the base dimensions that do not change intact. For the ones that do change, just have your dim root member. Consider this your starting outline template and save a copy of it. When you want to rebuild your cube have a server process that takes the copy of your template outline and copies it over your existing outline file in the directory structure. Then run your load rules to import your new members.

Is there any way I can recover deleted pictures from Camera Roll and iCloud? Please please help me. All of my precious pictures are gone that I can never EVER get back. I dont have any iCloud or Camera Roll backup; and my PC can't download more software.

Hi everyone! I'm in need of extreme help. You see, today, two months ago I went out of the country from the United States of America. I took about 1500 pictures ONLY on my iPod touch. When I returned to the United States to my home, I accidentally deleted a little more than 100 pictures. Then, thinking I could get ALL of the pictures back at once, I restored my iPod touch from an iCloud backup I had a couple of days before. Instead of getting all of my pics back, they all got erased. The pictures that I did delete were deleted from Camera Roll AND Photo Stream (iCloud). Then, I was only able to get about 500 pictures back from iCloud. So about 1000 are still gone. When i did the restore, I thought all my pictures would be there, but they weren't and I couldn't possibly figure out why; because a restore from iTunes or iCloud is supposed to restore your device to the settings of the time you backed up your device. All of my other settings were just the way they were supposed tone for the time being, all except my pictures, which contained not one picture in any folder. So EVERYTHING from Cameta Roll was gone, and only about 500 pictures survived. I kept retoring and restoring, hoping they would come back but unfortunately they didn't. Then one time a restored again, I saw all of them back!! But then, within a blink of an eye, they disappeared as soon as I tapped on one picture. Then, I knew they were still in reach, but I just had to find them. Where could those 1000 pictures go? I looked up how to recover deleted photos, but I have to install a software. My computer CANNOT possibly take anymore software on it, my PC is very sensitive and I cannot delete anything off of it. Please please help me. What can I do to get my pictures back? They are memories that I can never EVER EVER get back. Thank you so much.

Please please help me, if you know how.

Is there a way to recover deleted photos from Lightroom?

Hi,
I recently lost pictures from my hard drive and I don't know how but I had deleted or removed the pictures from Lightroom as well. The catalog name still shows up on Lightroom but it shows that there are "0" pictures in the folder. Any advice on this?
Thanks!

Your photos were never in Lightroom; Lightroom only displays thumbnails (called previews) of your photos. Thus, at best you can only recover the previews, which will be smaller sized and lower quality than the original photos. In order for that to work, you need to find a catalog file that displays the previews (the catalog with 0 pictures in it won't help). Look under File->Open Recent and see if you can find a catalog file which displays these previews. If you find such a catalog file, you can recover the previews via a plug-in
In general, to recover lost photos you should:
1. Restore from the Trash/Recycle Bin if they are in there
2. Restore from backups of your photos
3. If you don't have backups of your photos ... why not? ... you need to begin making regular and automated backups of your photos AND catalog file to a different hard disk, no excuses ...
4. Try an "undelete utility" which may be able to recover deleted files ... there are free ones available ... if you get down to this step, do not perform any other tasks on your computer except find and use this program
5. If that doesn't work, recover previews from Lightroom

How do i recover deleted user

I have accidentally deleted my original user while trying to install a new user. I found the previous user file and dragged all the contents into a new user folder but that did not work. I took the imac to the Apple Store and the "genius" at the genius bar deleted that user before I could stop him. Now the files I found no longer exist, even in the disk image for the original user. None of my original settings work any more. I think the original user files must exist somewhere but it is not in the usual places.
More detail:
I was trying to set up a second user on the imac (2010) and migrate the user's info from a Powerbook G4 into the new user. The Apple support page said that I had to restart the powerbook in Target Mode to do the migrate. I renamed the user on the Powerbook to match the user on the iMac, restarted in Target mode and did the migrate. The migrate overwrote the original user info on the iMac, wiping out and settings, email and contacts. Not only that, the Target mode apparently did away with any user info I was trying to migrate, so what I ended up with on both computers is basically the factory setting as if there were no users. I attempted to recover the previous user as described above, but the folders had red Xes in them and did not reset the user info. But the info was there in the folders under the original user name. Went to the "Genius" bar where they got the laptop to at least recover the emails, etc. The next thing he did was to go to Accounts and delete the previous (original) user. Then he went searching for the previous user, but there was nothing in the folders because I had dragged, not copied them into the user he deleted. He asked if I had backups and I thought I did on an external hard drive at home. Got home and the time machine file on the hard drive was corrupt and would not back up. The only CD backup I have is two years old, so it doesn't have any iphone info.
So now I have two computers that sort of work but doesn't recognize any of the users for setup and email purposes. I'm afraid to synch my iphone because it warns me that it doesn't recognize the user and will replace info on the iphone. And all of my emails for the last few years are gone.
I thought I was getting backed up by the Backup application but it doesn't work. The laptop was set to backup to Mobile Me which doesn't work any more and I can't recover anything for it from icloud. The imac was supposed to be backed up to icloud but backup doesn't recognize any files there. I really don't know where to go from here except back to the "geniuses" at the genius bar and ask for an advanced tech support person.
Any suggestions?

Whew, if those files were secure deleted, they're cgone.
Your only slim hope is to quit using it completely to preent deleted file spaces being overwritten.
It may be possible to recover some erased ones, but you must quit using the Computer immediately, because the OS will think it can write to those freed blocks on the disk.
Either boot this one in Target mode...

Or professional Data Recovery Services.
BUT, every second you use that Mac the chances will be slimmer.

I need to recover deleted data from my iPhone 4S but don't have a recent backup. I thought by pressing sync on my macbook this would back up-but I was wrong. There are no backups on my macbook and the latest backup on iCloud was Jan 2012. Please help

I need to recover deleted data from my iPhone 4S but don't have a recent backup. I thought by pressing sync on my macbook this would back up…but I was wrong. There are no backups on my macbook and the latest backup on iCloud was Jan 2012. My mum died in May and I had lots of text messages that I wanted to keep. I really want to get them back. Is there any way at all I can get that deleted data from the phone?

Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer. As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you. I'm sure you'll pay, however.
Let this be a very important lesson learned.
Best.
