I lost all my email folders and saved emails

I used Thunderbird as my e-mail for years without problem program. This morning, I was able to download and save my e-mail address as I always do. However, this afternoon, when I open Thunderbird, it prompted me to open a new email account I made, using my old email address. But now all my e-mail folders and saved emails have disappeared. My address book is still intact. How can I recover my old data?

  • I lost all the photos, files and programs, can someone help me please?

    I did a system restore (I think) and lost all the photos, files and programs.  Can someone tell me please how do I get back them?

    Looks like your user profile has been corrupted in some way and XP connected to a new profile.  This means that when you connect, you see one of your stuff and can be also lack all the other programs you may have installed previously.

    Note that the system restore do not know or care about the personal files on your system.

    Unless there's a disaster or instead of a system restore you done a system recovery files would be still on your system somewhere - you just find them... and when you find them, you can correct what happened.  If you have made a recovery of the system instead of a system restore, then all is lost and you need to recover from a backup.

    Have you performed a search of Windows to see if you can find some of these photos and files?    For example, you could search for something like "Resume.doc" or a file name that you remember exactly to see if it is anywhere on your system and where it is.

    Why don't you get in Windows Explorer and (assuming that XP is installed on your C drive), navigate to this folder:

    C:\Documents and Settings

    Below, you will see that each user on your system has their own folder for their personal belongings.  You will see also some folders listed user that you do not recognize, but that's normal.

    Under the folder of each user, there is another folder, as "Documents of Jose" and under this 'Jose music' and «De Jose Pictures»  Dig a little and check them all to see if you can find your missing stuff.

    Just take a look in the Control Panel, add/remove programs to see if "missing" programs are still installed, but all not available when you are logged in (you don't have to 'do' something - just look at).

    Assuming that you can find your missing stuff, determine where we (which will make feel you better knowing that it is not really gone), then report back and someone can help you straighten things.

  • After that my computer remained at about 48 to 72 hours, he lost all internet connectivity, IE and Outlook, as well as other programs.

    original title: Internet connectivity problem

    After that my computer remained at about 48 to 72 hours, he lost all internet connectivity, IE and Outlook, as well as other programs. Before that, it works fine. If I reboot, it goes back to works very well for this period of time. I noticed I can shorten or lengthen the time that remains active of programs I run the application, primarily GOAL and iTunes. If I do not use one of the people, he can stay for about 4 days, if I use both what it comes down to 2 days.

    About 2-3 months ago, my computer started to do this. I've been troubleshooting on and outside since then, but as it was not any extreem yet I was not too concerned. However, recently the problem has progressed. It started with she it around every 7 days, so I could live with it. However, I do not restart my computer every day, so I'm hoping to solve this problem.

    Once removed the HDD data can't be recovered. However, you can use your favorite search engine to browse third-party data recovery software and use this software to recover data.

    Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  • I deleted my account and lost all my emails, contacts and saved records. I need to recover and start a new account.

    I had a problem with my password and so deleted my old account before starting a new. I didn't know that I would lose all my contacts, files and e-mails. I need to get their back and then set the appropriate settings and passwords on the new account. So the question is "how to get back the old account information?

    lets start at the beginning.

    How do you delete your account. Uninstalling and reinstalling do not affect the data, if your actions are needed to determine if something could stay.

  • Smartphones blackBerry lost all my emails and now I can't respond to most recent emails

    OK, I know for a fact that we are not in the month of April, so I was not stupid Rascal by prank in April. I connected my phone on the charger, last night, as I do on a daily basis and this morning I wake up all of my missing emails and when I want to answer some emails, all I have for the options are:

    Switch App

    Save as draft

    Full menu

    I went into options and my emails are set to be deleted after 30 days, but he was not more than 2 weeks because I opted for the bb smartphone data package... Plan of the family at & T 10 GB.

    The only thing I can think off the fact that we spend time to 1 hour before but that sounds extremely illogical to me.

    I'm on a "BOLD" worm 7.1.0 package 9900 2543

    I read here that my notebook of maintenance may be corrupt, but only service CMIME book that I find is for 1 e-mail account (on 4) and when I delete it and restore then, nothing happened.

    I did the old disconnect the battery to reset the bb, but has not as well.

    Again, I have not changed, edited anything on my email accounts because I made them at the beginning. The only thing that I remember I did was I plugged the phone into the charger once and about 5 minutes later I unplug the unit to use, 10 to 15 minutes later, I plugged it upward and fell asleep, but once again... I doubt seriously that this Jack my entire email settings.

    Sorry for the long rant, I try to be as careful as I can. Lose my email isn't a big deal since I have them on my outlook Inbox, but it becomes a bit boring that I lost on my device and not able to answer them.

    Thanks and sorry if this has been posted before, none of the answers I found helped me personally.

    EDIT: I just went to Thunderbird and I myself sent a test email to all email accounts that I have on my BB, they all came immediately but I have been unable to answer one of them. I wonder if remove/uninstall accounts emails that I have on my BB and a fresh install would solve the problem.

     

    Still, I'd like to know what happened and why he has done it well.

    It seems that I was stuck trying to answer an email that came in before I made any changes and why I thought that it did not work.

    After some additional testing, I am now sure that everything I did worked, and Yes, I wait for all future emails on registration and activation before you pull the battery.

    I'm still a little angry that I have to wait until tomorrow to meet this customer of my outlook at the office but happy that I had my email working again... Although why is past will be nag at me for a few more days lol.

    Thanks again for your help.

  • Outlook Express in the "compact" XP files I lost all messages in folders to recycle as per the BAK doc

    Frequently, Outlook Express 6 wants to "compact" file. I welcomed that this and this time lost all messages in the folders of Outlook Express. They appear in recycle as per the BAK how doc do to restore the trash by the Doc to the folders in Outlook Express?  Also, how can I preclule this loss in the future?

    Thank you

    Two reasons the most common for what you describe is disruption of the compacting process, (never touch anything until it's finished), or bloated folders. More about that below.

    Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it? :
    http://www.insideoe.com/FAQs/why.htm#compact

    About file Corruption:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/IE/community/columns/filecorruption.mspx

    Recovery methods:

    If you use XP/SP2 or SP3, and are fully patched, then you should have a backup of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin (or possibly the message store), copied as bak files.

    To restore a folder bak on the message store folder, first find the location of the message store.

    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

    In Windows XP, the .dbx files are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in the Solution Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder options | View.

    Close OE and in Windows Explorer, click on the dbx to the file missing or empty file, then drag it to the desktop. It can be deleted later once you have successfully restored the bak file. Minimize the message store.

    Open OE and, if the folder is missing, create a folder with the * exact * same name as the bak file you want to restore but without the .bak. For example: If the file is Saved.bak, the new folder should be named saved. Open the new folder, and then close OE. If the folder is there, but just empty, continue to the next step.

    First of all, check if there is a bak file already in the message. If there is, and you have removed the dbx file, go ahead and rename it in dbx.

    If it is not already in the message, open the trash and do a right-click on the file bak for the folder in question and click on restore. Open the message store up and replace the .bak by .dbx file extension. Close the message store and open OE. Messages must be in the folder.

    If messages are restored successfully, you can go ahead and delete the old dbx file that you moved to the desktop.
     
    If you have not then bak copies of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin:

    DBXpress run in extract disc Mode is the best chance to recover messages:
    http://www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/default.aspx

    And see:
    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4

    A general warning to help avoid this in the future:

    Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They finally are damaged. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

    And backup often.

  • Windows 10 votes against 7, lost all existing emails

    I use windows live mail 2011.  recently upgraded to windows 10 and hated for various reasons.  my existing email went through fine.  I decided after a week of return to windows 7.  Once completed the "downgrade", all existing emails in all folders (some more than 10 years) had disappeared.  the email function still worked, but all previous emails had disappeared.  Microsoft has been absolutely no help.  any ideas.  is it possible that they are still on my hard drive and recoverable by the appropriate technician?

    I made a backup external drive but a system restore could not restore the lost emails.
