Documents folder disappeared!

Hi all

I have a strange problem with my computer, running Windows Vista. All my files were under a folder called "Documents", but in Hebrew ("Mismachim"). I have always used this folder for my documents and it was very good.

Suddenly, I tried to locate the folder ("Mismachim") and it was gone - now he had another name instead, called "Documents" - in English. The folder was empty and all my documents are gone!

I tried to run a system restore, which seems to solve the problem concerning the name - it's 'Mismachim' again, but my most recent files of the last days are no longer there. I really need to find these files.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I wonder if these 3 third-party programs may help.

They are designed to recoverdeleted files and folders.

Wonder if they'll find missing files for you.

It's just outside. Don't blame me if they do not work.

  • Links to the Documents folder suddenly broken?

    So I had learned about my computer to play a favorite game and was astounded to see that all of my saved games disappeared suddenly! After exploring a bit I found something even more weird - the link in the start menu in the Documents folder suddenly didn't work.

    After having studied more, I realized the two were linked - the files of game themselves had not been deleted - they were stored in a folder in the My Documents folder, the computer can see somehow is more (unless I went directly to her).

  • No iCloud drive merger or double documents folder?

    I have two computers that I had of the SugarSync, sync.  In other words, the documents folder on both computers, through SugarSync, is synchronized and identical.  If I go into system preferences > iCloud and click Options to iCloud drive and turn on the desktop and Documents folders, be it synchronize (or fusion) the dossier of documents on two computers or it will publish two documents separate (and then more and more different) folders?  Thank you, in advance!

    I use iCloud Drive to synchronize the office and the three Macs Documents folder.

    Initially, the synchronization to create a folder for the documents of every Mac as subfolders of Documents and office, named 'old Documents - computer name '. Thus, there are essentially three separate folders of documents of each computer. I have to merge them on mine, if I want to.

    In my case, that doesn't matter much, because I started syncing with almost empty Documents and office on three Macs.  Any document that I add after the initial synchronization is now synchronized with the devices.

    In your case, where the records are already synchronized, you could simply remove a set of Documents on one computer, before you start the synchronization.

  • My entire Pages iCloud drive folder disappeared.

    I went to update a file that I keep on my Pages iCloud drive, and he was gone. Everything was gone! Numbers and Keynote files were still there, but all of my Keynote files had been deleted (not by me). I was able to recover the Keynote files through the recovery of the iCloud file page, but none of the files Pages are listed. I have TimeMachine backup for all of my Macs, but it does not include the iCloud drive.

    I usually have to access the files from my MacBook Air, but sometimes I edited my home, my work MacBook Pro iMac, my iPhone 6 and my iPad. All have the latest versions of the OS.

    Time Machine backup files from iCloud, but not in an obvious situation. Launch the restore from Time Machine application. When you are presented with the window of time Machine, click the library folder in your home connection directory. Find the Mobile Documents folder it contains. This is your viewer to iCloud.

    At first, your Pages folder may be missing. Start walking in time until it reappears, then double-click the folder to open it. Assess if all of your files are in the folder. If so, then use the left arrow to pull this file Pages, select this folder, and then choose restore. Otherwise, you may need to travel in time to assess whether your files are all present before the deletion of folder and then restore the Pages folder.

  • How can I restore my time capsule documents folder?

    I use an iMac OS X El Capitan and support up to a Time Capsule airport running.

    One of our user accounts on the iMac ran into problems w access to the apple of the user ID (could not access iCloud preferences, etc.) before doing a clean reinstall of the OS X software, so I opted to try to remove the problematic user account (another account has no problems) and then configure a new user account. It seems (the jury is still pending on that) have toured and account is running normally.

    My question now is to restore a subset of the records of the time Machine to the specific user. Is it possible and if yes, can you give me instructions on how to do?

    Thanks in advance.

    Migration wizard does not have the granularity you need. It is simply not possible to choose more great lines.

    So, you'll need to do it via the standard recovery... method that looks like you have never used.

    This is the basic method of use Time Machine, you will need to learn how do.

    TM open via icon in the dock. If this isn't in the dock it from applications.

    All you have to do is open TM...

    Go to the date when the user has always existed.

    Now in the finder as the interface.

    Go to the user that you want to restore... I suggest that you actually just take the folder of any user.

    Sorry I can't take screenshots inside the TM... so if this is not clear look at a standard youtube video, of which there are hundreds.

    It's the old version... but it is clear and well spoken.

    Restore now all the folder to somewhere else... maybe not even on your hard drive, but on a USB key or a convenient place.

    Once the entire restored user to a location, you can then choose say all the documents in the documents folder and copy it directly to the new user that you created, file documents... same thing for music, even for photos etc... the actual application should always be connected libraries... which will make you within itunes or photos, etc..
