Where are my older iMessages? Is there a way to retrieve iMessages, I never deleted them?

I need to see what was sent and received as an iMessage. I never deleted any of these conversations, but unlike my regular text messages where it saves the history find the load earlier on imessage. Please, please tell me there is a way to retrieve older iMessages. If there's a way can you tell me how?

I'm sorry, but they would have been cached in a temporary file that would have been replaced when you upgraded.
In the future you should never do system updates/upgrades while still processing data. This doesn't help you much now, but at least it may help at a future time.

I suggested contacting Compub in Nassau St as the info is priceless and worth the trouble of trying to regain?
Any thoughts? The poor lady is very distress

If she has backed up her iPhone she can replace that iPhone and set up the new iPhone from her backup.
You can put the iPhone that went into water into a plastic baggie with either new silica gel packets (preferred) or raw rice and let it sit for 4 - 5 days. After that time remove the phone and connect it to power for at least a half hour. While it is still connected to power reset it by holding down the power and hold button, wait for the Apple logo then let go of the buttons. Might take several tries. If it revives immediately back it up.

You should ALWAYS import all pics ( and anything selse for that matter) before any update.
If you failed to do this, then the pics are likely gone. You can try restoring from backup.

Is there another way to close apps other than deleting them from the multitask bar.....I have a small crack in the bottom of my screen and that part of the screen does not recognize the touch. :(

There's generally no reason to be closing them that way at all. The apps you see in the recents bar are just that, apps that you used recently. Most of them are doing absolutely nothing. The only apps that are really doing anything in the background are ones that play music and ones that are using location services. Just leave them be.
Best of luck.

How do I select multiple images without clicking on each one? Is there a way to select duplicate photos to delete them?

Consider adding the delete symbol to the Finder window tool bar. This way you can highlight all the photos you want to delete at the same time then hit the "delete" symbol.
Open a Finder window/View/Customize Toolbar - follow the directions in the customized pop down window.

From your backup. The iCloud backup contains the photos in your Camera Roll:

I have an ipad 2 and just upgraded to IOS 8 I have never back up my photos and I lost all of them after upgrade is there a way to retrieve all the photos I lost?

I Have an ipad 2. I have never back up my photos ever since setting it up or ever since I bought it. Wiith all the previous upgrades that I have I never lost any photos and videos taken from the ipad itself. Now I upgraded to the new IOS 8 and all my photos and videos are all gone. Is there a way to retrieve the lost photos and videos?

Did you have I cloud that automatically back up you data to iCloud backup happens when you charge your iPad Have a look in Settings iCloud backup If you do then all your photos will be safe When you have iCloud if you buy a new iPhone / iPad And you use the same Apple ID all your Apps & photos will download to your new Device Cheers Brian

Where are the older BIOS versions gone?

Hi
A few weeks back, I've upgraded the BIOS on my Pavilion G6 1001sq to the latest version (F66). I noticed that the laptop is running considearbly hotter since then and I want to revert to an older BIOS version. When I go to the updates page on the HP website and click on "older versions available" I can only see the F66 version on the page I'm directed to ( http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/previousVersions?softwareitem=ob-115746-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4... ), although a long list with many versions was available till recently. Where are the older versions gone?

Unfortunately, I do not know where they have gone. HP is working on issues with the suport and driver servers at the moment.
Since your notebook does have the UEFI Diagnostics installed, you should be able to rollback to the previous version that was installed. Use the firmware management option to do that.

I have 1 ipod but have diffrent acounts. my computer is setup for my ipod 4th gen that i had stolen and i would like to sync all of that music to my older nano. is there a way to do that without wiping out all my old songs that were on my nano?

so i have one ipod and it is a 2005 ipod nano. i have plugged into my computer and i cant get to the music on it. i am trying to burn it onto a disk or even a diffrent folder on my computer so i can just have select songs on my ipod. the reason i have 2 diffrent accounts is because i made a new account for my ipod 4th generation and it got stolen. so now i have my older ipod. is there a way to get it onto my computer with out wiping all my old songs on it?

iPods do not work with "accounts." They work with your iTunes library. You don't have to set up a new iTunes library for each iPod. One iTunes library can sync with as many iPods, iPhones, and iPads as your own, at the same time. iTunes connects to and treats each device separately.
However, if your iPod nano is set up for automatic syncing with an iTunes library that is NOT your current iTunes library, you cannot sync your current library to it without replacing its existing content. Do you have access to the previous iTunes library, the one the iPod currently synced to? If so, you should transfer your song files from that iTunes library to your current iTunes library. Then, sync our iPod to your current iTunes library. You can post back to get more info about the procedure.
If you don't have access to that previous iTunes library, the approach is to first offload the song files from the iPod to your computer's drive, then add the song files to your current iTunes library.
You cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store. However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
You can then sync your iPod to your "consolidated" iTunes library.

Shot videos ONLY in landscape. For photos choose what's you like. Maybe you have to rotate photos on PC. What's your operating system?

Recover software as you have described is pretty much your only option - keep in mind that if wait, some of the currently recoverable data may well be over-written and lost.

Is there a setting that needs to be set to allow the annotation features? I set password protection to open and then password for editing and set it to Any except page extraction, but it still did not give the annotation option

I turned on Bold Text - the phone will restart itself, that's normal - and it is now MUCH easier on my eyes.
Give it a try.
