• Why have I lost all CD imported from my iTunes library

  I lost all my imported CDs and all the selections of my iTunes library painstakingly compiled over the years of effort. More than 110 GB of music disappeared from one day to the next day when I upgraded the software at the end of 2015. How can I get these without restarting the whole process again? The only thing left in my library is the purchased Playlist. Can someone help, please? Thank you.

  On some occasions, your iTunes library database may be affected by an iTunes update - nobody seems to know exactly why, although its been suggested that it would be the result of a conflict between the installation of iTunes and some anti-virus software program or other processes that monitor changes to files on your computer (for example the Windows Indexing service').  The content of your library, i.e. the media files and folders should be affected, but without a database iTunes file doesn't have information or links to these files.

  To restore your library to a working state (which may not be necessarily as it was immediately before installing the update) see user turingtest2 on the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library.  For later use, you must create and maintain a backup of your library iTunes, and always update your backup before installing the iTunes update.  For a suitable and recommended method, see backup your iTunes for Windows with SyncToy library .

• Why have I lost all my work?

  I'm relatively new to Illustrator. Last night, I lost about 8 hours worth of work I put in a project of Illustrator, and I have no idea why. I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on the situation.

  
  At one point yesterday morning, I recorded my project in PDF format so that I could share it with someone. I continued to work on the file and kept saving my Illustrator project that I worked. At the end of the day, I closed my project. When I tried to reopen this morning, all my changes disappeared. Even more strange, the only version of the Illustrator file I have is a version even older than what I had saved in PDF format. And still more strangely, I got a PDF of my final working copy, but no version of Illustrator of it. Note that I have never created a PDF version of the book that I did at the end of the day. So technically the PDF file I have on my system should have only one I sent earlier in the day.
  
  What possibly could happen here? I'm a little upset that I lost 8 working hours. But more important, I want to know what I did so that I wouldn't do it again.

  Thanks for your help!

  GS,

  For safety, you always save a copy in PDF of Ouedraogo and stay at Illy, or save normally before save you to PDF and then close the document in order to avoid this trap.

  You saved the file PDF without having checked preserve Illustrator editing functions, which means that the document is only saved in the possibly simplified PDF version.

  Save as PDF with preserve Illustrator editing capabilities ticked, or save as to create a PDF Compatible is TICKING, you actually save two files complete, an AI and a single PDF.

  You can recreate the document HAVE entirely or partially of the PDF, according to the work, by opening it to Illy and maybe redo parts. Some aspects of the work are the same, some are simplified in the PDF file.

• Why have I lost all my favorites sync on my computer?

  I came back to work on Monday and all my favorites have disappeared. Recently, synchronize bookmarks on the new computer with the old computer. Bookmarks have been synchronized successfully... then I erased everything on the old computer. Where are my favorites?

  You should have turned off Sync on the old PC before you delete the bookmarks on the old PC.

  You should have a backup on the new PC which can be restored.

• My computer crashed and it restarted I asked me to refresh Firefox. I have now lost all my favorites etc. There is no 'old Firefox data' folder - help!

  My computer crashed (blue screen) and when it restarted a box came asking me to update Firefox. I clicked on OK (thought he was just trying to restore the session) and I have now lost all my favorites, passwords registered etc. There is no 'old Firefox data' folder anywhere on my system - help! is there a way I can get it all back without doing a system restore? I am running Windows 7.

  Hi, you can try it for only bookmarks: first open the bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > restore and see if you have a backup there.

  If not and the other favorites, please see.

• Restored Firefox with extensions disabled. Have I lost all my extensions?

  So I was testing my Firefox with extensions disabled when I clicked on 'Restore Firefox' by mistake. Have I lost all my extensions because of this? Apparently I still have my passwords, history and even cookies, but I got a lot of extensions that are now gone.

  Is it possible to recover?

  The extensions are removed during the update. Check the 'old data Firefox' that has been placed on the desktop.

  More information about the update is here.

• I reinstalled my OS and I lost all my data FF, but I remember there is somehow to get it back with a 16-digit PIN code?

  I reinstalled my OS (Win 7 Ultimate) and lost all my data of Firefox. I have Xmarks, so I got all my bookmarks back, but I also had another when Xmarks said they would fold (which I don't remember the name of).

  Last time when I reinstalled my OS (years ago), there was a place where I could enter a PIN code to 16 digits and all my passwords, modules, etc., would stay again.... or at least that's how I remember it.

  What Miss me to recover passwords? And all my add-ons/extensions?

  I understand how my PIN. He goes to Xmarks, the menu options for my passwords. Guess I'll have to get all my Add-ons again (which is probably a good idea because there are many that I have not used and just things idle).

  Thanks for your help though!

• Why have I lost 400 emails.

  Why have I lost 400 emails.  Last night I had about 523 emails.  Before my eyes, it changed to 123.  What happedned where they went.  They were emails that I haven't read.  They could be important.  That's happened?  How to make a comeback.  Where did they go?  It was in outlook express.

  OE reviews | Current view | Show all messages (check/enable)

  Cautions general OE:

  N ' not use Inbox or sent items to archive messages.  Move them to local folders created for this purpose.

  -Empty the deleted items folder daily.

  -Frequently perform a manual compact of all OE while records that "work offline".  More onhttp://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm

  -Do not cancel automatic compacting, where it would happen and do not try to close OE via Manager tasks or stop your Automatic compaction machine can take place.

  -Disable e-mail scanning in your antivirus application.  It can cause corruption (i.e., loss of messages) and offers no additional protection:

• I lost all my data after clicking F11

  Hello world!

  I lost all my data when I clicked on F11 and resumption of the factory was run.

  Is it possible to return the data? They are very important.

  They were all my, very important data, including all the data of the University - for more than 4 years.

  Please help me. I need emergency assistance. The operating system is Windows Vista Business Edition - she is allowed.

  Best regards

  Manual

  Hi, manual,.

  Unfortunately I have some bad news for you.

  F11 called the Recovery Manager, where you have several options. The following two options are in the section I need help immediately .

  Microsoft System Restore is a non-destructive process. If you make a mistake, you can restore your system to a restore point at a date that works for you.

  System recovery is, however, a destructive process that removes all the data. Until the process begins it warn you.

  You may be able to recover your data by contracting a data recovery company. It will be quite expensive and no guarantee of success.

  Do you not have your University data backed up on an external drive?

  You can re - download all your media, and if you use iCloud for Messages, Notes, Contacts, calendars, stream of pictures, etc, then once you connect to iCloud, these elements will be re - download to your device. Or, you can plug in to iTunes on the computer you sync with and synchronize your media.

  See you soon,.
