What is the lost and found folder on my hd?

there is a folder on my hd that I did not create called "lost and found" and only one document inside that is 3.79 GB called iNode6630939. What is theis file and do I need it?

normally things in lost and found can be deleted.  unix has had a lost and found directory since forever.  if you do a fsck on your drives and a file comes up that is not accounted for, unix puts it in lost and found.  if you are not missing a 3.79 GB file, then delete it.

    I purchased 2 large bags of cell phones at a surplus/lost and found auction. The owner of this phone lost it, and didn't pick it up at the lost and found within 90 days and the phone was put up at auction. By law I am the new legal owner of the phone. The person who lost it locked their phone but didn't bother going to look for it. Not my problem. I went to the Apple store with my auction receipt and they said they still can't erase the old owner's account from the phone, and I need their receipt and their permission. There has to be some way around that. I legally purchased it after they lost it and neglected to pick it up within the time frame the law gave them to pick it up. Basically the Apple Store employee told me I was **** out of luck and the phone is basically garbage.

    You were correctly informed. You are the new, legal owner of a beautiful paper weight. There is no way around it. This is a security protection to prevent people who steal them from getting value from the stolen item.

  • What is an inode file and why is it in my lost and found?

    I was llooking through a clone of an old hard drive and found a file called lost and found with an inode file. arent these files used for hacking? being that i am not a hacker, how can i find out where this file came from and if its necessary in the clone.It's on an external disk

    Thanks Wade.
    That did the trick, once I figured out the missing step. For other folks interested, to use an .acv file to adjust a curve:
    Open the Curves Adjustment Panel > Panel Options drop-down menu > Load Curves Preset... > find & select the .acv file (on hard drive) in the "LOAD" window > click LOAD. The adjustment in the .acv file will be applied to the image and appear in the curves graph of the Curves Adjustment Panel. Slick.
    Apparently, moving the .acv file to the "Curves" folder in the "Presets" folder allows this curve adjustment to be a permanent preset choice. It can then be found under the Curves Panel preset drop-down menu. Just look for the original .acv file's name in the list.

  • Hi, I want to rebuild my g/f's lost itunes as a surprise. What is the easiest and stealthiest way to buy tracks via my macbook for her itunes?

    Hi,
    I want to rebuild my g/f's lost itunes as a surprise. What is the easiest and stealthiest way to buy tracks via my macbook for her itunes? To be clear I don't want to buy her vouchers I want to buy the songs myself. I don't have access to her itunes account and to ask would give the game away. I don't want to own or listen to the songs myself but I struggle to think of an approach that doesn't involve some sort of piracy.
    She currently has zero tracks having lost them all so the only thing I can think of is starting an entirely new account in her name and filling it and then giving it to her on a hard drive. Is this the best way to go about it?
    Many thanks,
    Andrew

    There is no really good way to do what you want. Any tracks you purchase via your own iTunes Store account are for your personal use, tied to your iTunes Store account, and can't be given to anyone else. If you don't want to gift the tracks to her and can't access her iTunes Store account, the only option other than creating her a completely new iTunes Store account (which will require a new email address for her) is to buy the CDs those tracks are on.
    Regards.

    Hi IG viper,
    Placing your iPod into recovery mode should allow you to successfully restore the device.
    You might see these error messages if any of these are true:
    Your device has a beta version of iOS.
    You're trying to install an earlier version of iOS (downgrading).
    Your device has unauthorized modifications to iOS, also called "jailbreaking."
    Use recovery mode to restore your device to the latest version of iOS.
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors

  • Arching of files is gone from the downloads and documents folder

    The arching list of files is gone when rolling over the downloads and documents folder. I removed the downloads folder by accident yesterday from the dock. Once I found it, I replaced it back on the dock and now the arching of files is gone on both folders. I have them as lists by date. I have restarted my MacBook Pro several times, clicked on the dock and properties and nothing seems to work. Does anyone know how to get it back? Are there any settings that I am missing?. Thanks!

    Right click on the folder in the Dock (or hold down the Control key and click on it if you have a one-button mouse), and choose "Stack" under the "Display as" section, and "Fan" under the "View content as" section in the resultant contextual menu. You can also choose how they are sorted from this menu as well.

  • What is the field and Table for "Batch Class" and "Class Type" in QM.

    Hi All,
    What is the field and Table for "Batch Class" and "Class Type" in QM.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
      For batch class the class type value is '023' . This you can find from KLAH table and the fileld for class type is KLART..
    And also all the data related to batch class are found in tables INOB, KLAH,KKSK and for the characeteristics of batch materials you can refer AUSP table.
    In INOB table, for batch class, you need to give 023 in KLART field and  value MCH1 in OBTAB filed.
    Please check this and let me know if this you need any more details?

  • KDE: Flash player configuration appears in category Lost and Found

    Adobe flash player comes with file
    /usr/share/kde4/services/kcm_adobe_flash_player.desktop
    This file contains a line controling where the flash player configuration should appear in the KDE system settings:
    X-KDE-System-Settings-Parent-Category=personal
    Unfortunately the parent category does not exist. Hence the Adobe flash player configuration control appears in category "Lost and Found".
    The line should be replaced by:

    I am using

    After the correction the system settins show Adobe Flash Player like this:

Which I read to mean that BDLH also found it to be incorrect but some "corner-product" shell may do this sort of thing (not that I know, or have heard, of any that do). ;-)
    In a bourne family shell, the initial construct would cause stdout to replace the log file and append the err file, and would not redirect stderr.
    If you want to send stdout to one file and stderr to another, with overwrite, it'd be
    command > logfile 2> errfile
    Correct, of course. ;-)
    And, of course, changing either of those ">" symbols to ">>" would append (that stream), but you've already said that. ;-)

  • My iPod shuffle says it has 9 songs on it , but it will only play two of them.  What is the problem and what do I do to hear the other songs

    My iPod shuffle says that there are 9 songs on it, but it will only play two of them.  What is the problem and how can this be fixed?

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iPod connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Upgraded both computers in the household and found Lion is too disruptive to workflow.  Do I turn in the new laptop for a pre-Lion rebuild to keep Snow Leopard, or do I return computer and get upgraded memory to improve performance of existing MacBookPro?

    Upgraded both computers in the household and found Lion is too disruptive to workflow. 
    Do I turn in the new laptop for a pre-Lion rebuild to keep Snow Leopard, or do I return new computer and get upgraded memory to improve performance of existing MacBookPro?  I'm mostly still happy with existing MacBookPro, but Aperture doesn't work, the computer can't handle it.
    Other possibility is setting up virtual machine with Snow Leopard server software on new computer.
    Any opinions on what would allow moving forward with the least hassle and best workflow continuity?
