TS4108 How do you recover a single conversation you accidentally deleted in your iMessages?

I've done the above and wonder if there's a way to retrieve just that converstaion rather than downloading the whole back up and loosing all the information I've lost since the back up and now.

No, restoring from backup is all or nothing.

    How do I recover a message conversation that I accidentally deleted?

    If the conversation was on the phone the last time you did a backup, you can restore to that backup. However, remember that anything that you have done since that backup on the phone would be lost.

  • How do I recover a Note that was accidentally deleted?

    I accidentally deleted a Note that I'd like to recover. Time Machine backs up every hour, but I don't know where to look for the Note app data. do the iCloud Notes even back up during Time Machine?

    User/Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes/Data/Library/Core Data/External Records/C571FE8D-DB21-438E-AA58-16DD5901A331/Note/_records
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library.

    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • How do I recover a directory that I accidentally emptied in the trash?

    How do I recover a directory that I accidentally emptied in the trash?

    Restore it from your backups. If you don't have backups now you have a really good reason to start keeping a backup. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. You may also find my FAQ on maintenance helpful.
    Basics of File Recovery
    If you empty the Trash the files are gone. Recovery is possible but you must not allow any additional writes to the hard drive - shut it down. When you delete files you erase only the directory entries, not the files themselves. However, the space occupied by the files has been returned to the system as available for storage. Writing to the drive will then eventually overwrite the space once occupied by the deleted files in which case the files are lost permanently. Also if you save a file over an existing file of the same name, then the old file is overwritten and cannot be recovered.
    If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten with recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive.
    The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
    Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on Data Recovery.
    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.0 is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.5.2 is Intel Mac compatible; Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided. The current version, 1.5.1, is Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.
    OS X automatically defrags files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
    I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is significant):
    1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
    2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
    3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
    4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
    5. PsynchX 2.1.1 and RsyncX 2.1 (Freeware)
    The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
    1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
    2. Toast
    3. Impression
    4. arRSync
    Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
    Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.
    Referenced software can be found at www.versiontracker.com and www.macupdate.com.

    How to restore back my contact when I accidentally delete on iCloud

    Basics of File Recovery
    Files in Trash
    If you simply put files in the Trash you can restore them by opening the Trash (left-click on the Trash icon) and drag the files from the Trash to your Desktop or other desired location.  OS X also provides a short-cut to undo the last item moved to the Trash -press COMMAND-Z.
    If you empty the Trash the files are gone. If a program does an immediate delete rather than moving files to the Trash, then the files are gone.  Recovery is possible but you must not allow any additional writes to the hard drive - shut it down. When files are deleted only the directory entries, not the files themselves, is modified. The space occupied by the files has been returned to the system as available for storage, but the files are still on the drive.

  • How do I download MUSE again after having accidentally deleted it

    Hello!
    I am in a dilemma. After having accidentally deleted MUSE from my computer (!!), I am now unable to download it again from CC. It says it is already updated, but that is no comfort in this situation. I need to download it. Is there any help to get?
    HSPANHS

    Thanks Marty!
    Sorry, but I use the Mac.
    The problem was solved. Adobe has a small piece of software. It deletes all rests of software pieces on the computer. Muse was gone, but evidentally not small files belonging to Muse. The program erased everything, and now CC thought (rightly so) thought I had not installe Muse and allowed me to do so!
    Thanks for taking your time to write to me.
    Best wishes,
    Helge.

    Hi HSPANHS,
    Look into your controlpanel and see if muse is still there. If so, delete it.
    Then you will be able to download it again.

  • How do I find folder contents which were accidentally deleted?

    How do I find folder contents which were accidentally deleted?

    They would be in your Trash. Unless you have emptied your trash since then, in which case you'd need to use a file recovery tool such as Data Rescue.
    Of course, if you use Time Machine for backups, you can easily retrieve the file from TM.
