[SOLVED] After a crash, my languages and keyboard layouts are gone!

So my CPU hanged, I rebooted, unfortunatelly a lot of my personal (and perhaps system) files were corrupted. All my personal GNOME settings were set to default. I had to wipe out the entire ~/.config/dconf folder in order to regain the capability to customize everything again. So all was left behind was my keyboard layout. So I went to `Regions and Languages` and... all but the system language (English) options were gone, including the layouts!
I just reinstalled the groups gnome and gnome-extra, no to avail
What can I do?
edit: stupid me! The layouts were 'hidden' in the tiny window size of the thing!

  • Flash Plug in is crashing after recent upgrade. I tried uninstalling, and reinstalling, still crashing. Firefox and Plug-in are current. What else can I do?

    Flash Plug in is crashing after recent upgrade. I tried uninstalling, and reinstalling, still crashing. Firefox and Plug-in are current. What else can I do?

    What I suggest you do here is to use Adobe's uninstaller tool to uninstall Flash first of all: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Then reboot, go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and reinstall it.
    I notice too that you have an outdated version of Shockwave For Director. You can update that via http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/

  • I was logged in with a temporary profile on my pc, after restarting everything seemed to be fine. But my iTunes music is all in the cloud now, and my playlists are gone. What do I do?

    I was logged in with a temporary profile on my pc, after restarting everything seemed to be fine. But my iTunes music is all in the cloud now, and my playlists are gone. What do I do?
    My iTunes media folder shows ALL of my music still there (including all from imported CD's), but on my iTunes, it says most of it is in the cloud? As well as my playlists that I have had for YEARS, are all gone. I just recently got a new laptop and had my iTunes transferred over, when I re-downloaded iTunes onto it, everything popped up perfectly from this same file. Now after this "Temporary Profile" mishap, nothing is working properly with iTunes.
    Help! Please.

    Do this. If all the synced media like apps and music are alread in the the iTnunes library just backup the iPod and restore from that backup

    You should get your keyboard checked as it's repeating  on a lot of keys and makes you look silly.
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • HT204053 My daughter and me use the same cloud ID and to buy songs and now all her contacts ended up on my new iphone 5  and I manually erased all from my phone and now they are gone from her phone.  How does she get back her contacts?

    My daughter and me use the same cloud and apple id to buy songs in the past.  I got first iphone 5 and after trying to set up itunes to phone I ended up with all my daughters contacts from her iphone on my iphone.  I then deleted them from my phone one by one and now they are gone from her phone as well.  How does she get them back on hers and what happen????  Help with cloud!

    That's what happens when you share the same iCloud account.  First, migrate his phone to a different iCloud account using a different ID (you can continue to share the same ID for other services such as iTunes if you want).  To do this, on his phone save any photo stream photos that he wants to keep to his camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If he are syncing notes with iCloud that he wants to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to him so he can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in his new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; this won't effect your phone), provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create his new account and choose Merge to upload the data.  After doing this, he can go to icloud.com and safely delete your data from his new account.
    Then, if your contacts were on your phone when you last backed it up to iCloud, you can restore them by following Winston Churchill's user tip here: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.  This involves turning off your wifi after your phone restarts during the restore process, then saving the contacts on your phone and deleting them from iCloud prior to turning your wifi back on and allowing the restore process to finish.  You can turn off your wifi either by pulling the cord out of the WAN port in your wifi router, or by simply unplugging it.

  • IMPORTANT OPENED WINDOWS I WAS WORKING ON (EMPLOYMENT INFO, I AM UNEMPLOYED!) AND NOW THEY ARE GONE AND I CANNOT GET THEM BACK!! YOU NEED TO HELP ME RESTORE TH

    My Firefox crashed with important information on it!!!
    My Firefox has been crashing every day sometimes several times a day. I have emailed your staff back many times looking for a reason for the crashed without any response. I have been able to get by because I would restore the settings and continue what I was doing. WELL….this last crash has disappeared from any way of getting it back and IT HAD SOME REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT OPENED WINDOWS I WAS WORKING ON (EMPLOYMENT INFO, I AM UNEMPLOYED!) AND NOW THEY ARE GONE AND I CANNOT GET THEM BACK!! YOU NEED TO HELP ME RESTORE THAT OPEN WINDOWS FOR ME. IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT!! I NEED SOME DESPERATE HELP NOW!!
    Thanks,
    Nick

    Nick, sorry to hear about that. I'm not sure where you are sending the emails, but if you use the form to submit your crash information, that goes into a database for review by the developers instead of coming to the support volunteers here.
    Did you try the History > Restore Previous Session command? Firefox sometimes saves form data in the session history. This data may age out, so you should use that menu item as soon as possible.
    Going forward, consider installing the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lazarus-form-recovery/ Lazarus: Form Recovery] extension if you are filling long forms and Firefox is unstable.
    With respect to the crashes, there are many possible reasons for Firefox to crash. Have you reviewed the help articles for diagnosis? For example: [[Firefox crashes - Troubleshoot, prevent and get help fixing crashes]].

  • HT204150 My iphone contacts got synced with my daughter's ipod contacts and she deleted my contacts and now they are gone from my iphone.  How do I recover my contacts?

    My iphone contacts got synced with my daughter's ipod contacts and she deleted my contacts and now they are gone from my iphone.  How do I recover my contacts?

    First, your daughter needs her own iCloud account, otherwise her ipod will sync will all your data (email, calendars, contacts...).  If you have a backup or a copy on your computer, you could turn off iCloud syncing on your iphone, then restore from your contacts via iTunes.  After you get a new account for daughter, you can then turn on iCloud.

  • I upgraded to the ios5 on my ipad 2 and now all my Notes, Numbers and keynote and goodreader files are gone. Did they back up? If so where?

    I upgraded to the ios5 on my ipad 2 and now all my Notes, Numbers, keynote and goodreader files are gone. Did they back up? If so where? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    that happens for people who used icloud for everything but contacts. When they updated and went through initial
    set up, signing into cloud enabled everything including cloud for contacts. Since they had zero contacts in cloud, cloud cleaned out their contacts, but synced everything else that icloud has, like calendars, reminders etc. If those contacts were never backed up anywhere - they gone. If there is back up in cloud, it needs to be restored.
    Contacts sync in the cloud need to be turned off, right after restore.

    Have you upgraded to iPhoto 9.6 for compatibility with Yosemite? If not, try that first.
    It looks like iPhoto has lost the connection between the thumbnails and the original image files.
    This can be caused by a corrupted iPhoto library, or the originals have been deleted or moved.
    Try first to rebuild your iPhoto Library:
    If you do not have a current backup of the iPhoto library, make a copy of the library, but do not overwrite any previous backup.
    Launch iPhoto with the ⌥⌘-key combination (option-command) held down.
    Select "rebuild" from the first aid panel.  This may take a while for a large library.
    Can you now see your photos again?
    If not, rebuild the library with iPhoto Library manager as described by Old Toad:            Re: iphoto crashed
