Restore podcast file folder

When you download itunes 7 it has 4 or 5 folders listed in the library section ie music, video, podcast, audiobooks etc...
I deleted the folder podcast. I want to restore it and do not know how. Can anyone help me?

I figured out how to restore my Podcast file in the library
I went to Edit>preferences>General
and put a check mark next to podcast.

  • If i restore a user folder from time machine. is it just restoring all files associated with the user or programs also?

    If i restore a user folder from time machine, is it just restoring the files associated with the user or programs as well? Im asking because Apple Store just reset my system and said to restore files i needed and not to do a full restore. to try and determine if it was a software issue causing the problems.

    Just the user's folder. Nothing else. See Pondini's TM FAQs, for details.

    Kev9,
    If you go into the bookmarks Library using ''show all bookmarks'' then Firefox should give you the option to copy and then to paste a bookmark if you right click it.
    I can certainly copy and paste bookmarks so that they are in multiple folders. If you are not able to do that probably something is wrong with your Firefox installation, a corrupt file or conflicting add-ons. If you have a problem trying to do that try using Firefox in safe-mode, with all plugins disabled, if that does not solve the problem it may be worth starting your own thread, by asking a new question.
    Bosse5115, I suggest you also try the above action. If you are unable to duplicate bookmarks, but maybe your problem is simply you are not looking in the correct position/location, note you may need to open a folder, or scroll up or down to see something.
    I have also attached a screenshot, note the duplicated ''Latest Headlines'' folder item, just to prove items will copy and paste.
    The article [[how do I use bookmarks]] (and articles linked from it) may also be of interest

  • Help to restore iTunes files from trash, not deleted.

    I need to move 35,000 podcasts, 654 GB, from my trash back to my iTunes library on an external hard drive (EHD). They are NOT deleted from my trash.
    I am running on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 until I can clear enough EHD space to backup/upgrade to Mtn Lion.
    11.5 iTunes is my current version on my 640 GB early 2009 24” mac.
    I have tried:
    Undo - command + Z
    Selecting all in trash and dragging it to the:
    iTunes Music folder on my EHD
    Automatically Add to iTunes folder on my EHD
    The upper left corner on the iTunes window
    The iTunes icon in the dock
    There is no restore option when I Right Click on anything in trash, single or more than one file.
    In iTunes: File, Add to Library, selecting the recycle bin or the file under it. Nothing happens. I do have checked on iTunes Preferences, Advanced, Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library.
    Dragging 40 files from trash to the Automatically Add to iTunes folder on my EHD.
    This returned the files but without essential data like the release date/description, which totally messes up my library.
    They are no longer listed in date order, and I cannot see if I have the most recent without scrolling down down through sometimes over 200 pods in that album, and even then there is no date order, which orders all podcasts. All the tags/descriptions/comments I spent thousands of hours on are gone.
    I just recieved in the mail yesterday my Data Rescue 3 software for an earlier problem,
    I do not know if it will help retrieve all the essential data.
    I cannot move the files to my desktop because the size, 654 GB, is bigger than my 640 GB mac. Plus, I know from experience this does not preserve the essential data like release date.
    My iTunes EHD has 485 GB free out of 1.71 TB.
    I can order another 3 TB EHD to arrive in 2 weeks, which I will eventually need, but my husband aint going to be happy. As an old photographer trying to join the digital age, I already have 20 TB storage, mostly for photos, which has put us in debt.
    Please, does anyone know how to restore podcasts from trash while retaining metadata?

    Thanks for your sympathy, dclkdm.
    For anybody else out there,
    I have had some luck retaining info such as release date, plays, and rating by
    dragging podcasts to a Finder folder in iTunes,
    in iTunes Media,
    Automatically Add to iTunes.
    So far, I have retrieved all my lost podcasts with Data Rescue 3,
    but have not tried to consolidate everything into one library yet.

    How do I view my Photo Stream?
    On your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, your photos will appear in the Photos app. If you're using iOS 6 or later, you can find your photos by tapping the Photo Stream tab and then tapping the My Photo Stream album. In iOS 5, your photos are in the Photo Stream album.
    On your Mac, they appear in the Photo Stream view in iPhoto or Aperture. In iPhoto 9.4 or later or in Aperture 3.4 or later, open the My Photo Stream album in the Photo Stream view.
    On a PC, your photos download to the My Photo Stream (Download) folder. By default, this folder is located at C:\Users\\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream. You can change this location by visiting Photo Stream Options in the iCloud Control Panel for Windows.
    On Apple TV, your photos will appear in the Photo Stream (or My Photo Stream) view under Internet in the main Apple TV menu after you sign in with your iCloud account.

  • How to access a single file folder in timemachine using another computer as my own was stolen?

    Help!
    My Macbook Pro was stolen!
    I made backups with timemachine. But now there is no other Mac in the area to access this, and a windows computer does not read it. I am also nowhere near an Apple store.
    Possibly next week, via a colleague, I will have access to another Macbook. How do I find and restore then the single file folder in the timemachine backup. which has all work related documents, onto the desktop of this other computer, so that I can then transfer it via USB stick to a windows operated desktop computer?
    Thanks for any tips!

    No, there's no good way to do this.  You *could* (if you can run an .exe file off the flash drive) try the Flash Projector, if you can run the SWF as a standalone application.

  • Time Machine -- trouble restoring a file

    I need to restore a Quicken data file (GorfFinances.qdfm) that was saved by Time Machine to my backup drive  about a month ago. 
    Whenever I try it, a window pops up with this message: "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permissions to access "GorfFinances.qdfm."
    Yet, when I check permissions on the backup file from within Time Machine and compare that with permissions of the current file as checked in the normal  Finder window, they are exactly the same -- as follows:
         Name                              Privilege
         Gorf (Me)                         Read & Write
         wheel                              Read & Write
         everyone                         Read & Write
    Why am I getting that message and how can I fix the problem?
    Thanks,
    Gorf

    I just had this problem with testing restoring a Quicken file from Time Machine. (I'm on OS 10.6.8 with Quicken Essentials 1.7.4.) Although I found lots of advice online about changing file permissions in different places, the less-extreme methods didn't work for me. Then I found a comment about restoring the directory/folder that contains the Quicken file rather than just the fil, and that worked like a charm. I test restored the entire Documents folder to my Desktop, and all 3,000+ files restored successfully with no complaint about insufficient permissions for any of the files, including the Quicken file.
    I've since moved my Quicken file into a subfolder so that, if I ever need to restore the Quicken file for real, restoring that subfolder will take much less time than it took to restore the entire Documents.

  • At startup I get a file folder with a ?

    I Have a 2007 iMac, I had to force shut off when iTunes froze.  When I rebooted the screen had a file folder with a ? On it.  I am running 10.6.8  and I have a time machine backup.

    This indicated the computer cannot find the startup volume per Flashing question mark appears when you start your Mac. If you can boot using the ML install discs open Disk Utility and check to see if the system can see the startup HD on the computer. If it cannot that verifies the HD has failed, which I think has happened anyway. If you want to continue using the machine have the HD replaced, install ML as you had before and then restore from your TM backup to get back to where you were before the crash occurred.

  • I am having to install tbird again on a new system, I copied and backup-ed my previous emails. When I view my copies and/or restored email files are empty. Why?

    I am having to install tbird again on a new system, I copied and backup-ed my previous emails. When I view my copies and/or restored email files they are empty, nothing is displayed and the window shows message of being empty. I an sure of the backup and of my copy/paste steps. Where and/or what has happened to my emails? I also searched each disk and all files for email extensions (*.mozmsgs and *.sbd and *.sbf) with no results. I can not find a way to restore over 10 years worth of very important emails. Can someone please help me recover what I know is their? All my emails in Seamonkey are on another system (the one I replaced with new win7 pro 64 i7 based system) and all the emails I had in tbird, before having to reinstall everything on new system due to something that happened to the os, are the copied and backup-ed files that are showing empty. Prior to new install all old Seamonkey emails transferred to tbird and all the tbird emails prior were their and were the copied/backup-ed files showing empty now. This is turning into my worst experience and nightmare in over 25 years of systems. I am really lost on this one. please help....

    Are you saying you split your profile between C and D drive, perhaps through specifying a location in the account settings.
    BTW.
    *.mozmsgs useless duplicate files created for windows search integration. Simply wasted space on the disk.
    *.sbd a folder indicating the presence of a sub folder (contains no mail at all.
    *.sbf (I don't know that one.
    *.msf an index of mail. contains tags, but otherwise useless and will be recreated when the mail is loaded in Thunderbird so it can display the mail list.
    *. that is no file extension. You mail in files with the same name as the folders they came from.

  • Restarted and received a blinking file folder with question mark image.

    I left my computer sitting while I was working on homework long enough for the screen saver to come on (I'm not sure exactly how long it was). Earlier in the day, I had to force quit safari and then later it unexpectedly quit several times. While my computer was sitting, it looked like it does when it restarts. I waited until it started to come back up, and instead of coming up to the desktop, it came up with a blinking file folder and question mark. I had not done anything unusual with it, and had not tried to restore it. My dad was working on trying to fix it, and inserted the OS X disk. When the options came up, in the repair feature, the disk could not locate my harddrive. I was wondering if anyone else had encountered this problem, and if so how it was resolved. If anyone had any tips or ideas of things I could try that would be great. I can't really get it to an apple store soon, and I'm a student so my computer is very important to me. Thanks.

    Mornin' John,
    I also have an OWC external firewire drive that I tried to install OSX Tiger to but was told that I could not install OSX Tiger on the external drive.
    What Format is that Drive? GUID/MacOS Extended? It should work if the right format.
    Is there any way to run Disk Warrior from the external hard drive ... to try and rectify this issue, or at least get my data off the dead drive (if it is so)?
    From the external only if you can get OSX installed.
    What version is it? Do you mot have the CD?
    or from my PowerBook G4
    Possibly, with the MaBook in FW Target Mode
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    If DiskWarrior can't fix it, you might try Data Rescue II...
    http://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/
    http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php
    (Has a Free Demo to see if it could or not, but you'll need another drive to recover to).

  • Flashing file folder with question mark

    Hello,
    i have a mid-2010, 15"' MacBook Pro running Yosemite.  Also, about two months ago, I replaced the two, 2 GB memory modules with two 4GB modules. Just in the past week the laptop has been acting very sluggish; login won't complete; and today, when first booting it up, I got a gray screen with a flashing "question mark" file folder. I've NEVER seen this before.  In all the years I've been an Apple fan and user, I've never experienced a moments trouble. 
    In searching for other questions similar to mine, I read to restart in Safe Mode, select Disk Utility, then run Disk Repair on the Macintosh HD volume; exit Disk Utility, and restart from the Apple menu in regular mode.  These steps worked however, once the laptop began restarting, it took at least 10 minutes to get to the desktop.
    I am considering backing up critical files and wiping the hard drive clean or restoring it to factory. I don't know if this is necessary or if it would rid the system of whatever it is that's causing these issues.  Also, I've not ever done this before so I don't know what issues I may encounter, or exactly what steps to take to accomplish this.  If such drastic measures are not necessary, suggestions as to what I can do to correct these issues are appreciated.
    Suggestions are welcomed.  Thanks in advance.

    That is a sign that the MBP cannot find the OSX.  Usually is is a failing HDD or a faulty SATA connection cable/
    Backup your data.
    Then boot the MBP in the recovery partition and select Disk Utility from the 4 option menu.
    Run Disk Utility>First Aid, Verify and Repair.
    If the Disk cannot be repaired.
    If the disk is OK, and the problem still persists, that points to the Cable.
    Take out the HDD and connect it externally via USB in an enclosure.
    If the MBP can be booted using Startup Manager, then the cable is probably faulty and should be replaced.

  • Podcast file to "normal" mp3 file

    Please ...
    Is it possible to change the podcast file into an MP3 "normal" file and see it in the Library window ?
    Thanks
    Gil

    Further development....
    If the file has the ID3v2 removed, via mp3rage etc, then it also returns to a normal file. I have done a few tests on iTunes downloaded podcasts, and this does work. However you also lose lots of extra info, such as long titles and descriptions in the lyrics or comments sections, plus artwork.
    This is a bit of a pain, but you can copy and paste between old and new file with mp3rage. Slow, but better than clipped info.
    So copy the files to a new folder.
    drag folder to edit multiple files tags
    set ID3v2 to none, ID3v1 to 1.1 and check both boxes & change genre - click update.
    now set ID3v2 tag to v2.2.0 and click update.
    copy and paste any info you want between old and new files via iTunes and/or mp3rage.
    delete old files.
    I'm certain this works, and is easy if you don't have long names or need the extra tag info.

Maybe you are looking for
