"You want to replace the existing folder with the new?

How can I find the old file I accidentally replaced with a new one (they had the same name)?

I use OS X El Capitan

Restore it from a backup, or try using a waste product of data, such as those listed here. Do not write on the disc until the files are recovered or you choose not to recover them.

If utilities do not work, you can contact a professional data recovery service, but these can charge hundreds or thousands of dollars.

  • It is possible to omit the popup warns "do you want to replace the existing file?

    Well, the title says already

    I have an application where the user can save the results to a log file; These data are added

    (using OpenFile (file_name, VAL_WRITE_ONLY, VAL_APPEND, VAL_ASCII), so the opening of this file will not replace its content, but it adds up.) It would be appropriate to use the same file.

    Unfortunately, when the caller (FileSelectPopupEx) and selecting an existing file of the warning that appears the file already exists. It's OK. But the message keeps saying "want to replace you? In this case, this message is quite confusing for the user, because the program will not replace anything (which of course does not function FileSelectPopupEx).

    So I was wondering if it is possible to avoid or change this message popup?

    Thank you!

    What constant you spent buttonLabel parameter? The behavior of the function changes depending on the indicated button. In particular, (citing the help):

    Note   If VAL_SELECT_BUTTON or VAL_LOAD_BUTTON is passed to the parameter buttonLabel, FileSelectPopupEx service confirms that the selected file exists. If the file does not exist, the function prompts the user to select an existing file.

    Using the button "Save" should result in the confirmation message that you face now.

    I guess if you are using the simple OK button no prompt (to confirm: I'm not sure but I can't test it at the moment).

  • Zone alarm (free) to always safe? It keeps failing and you want to replace the last version.

    Were do the windows that open to Zone Alarm telling me to replace the version I have.

    Hi tianquizolco,

    In order to crush any disk, it must a rewritable disc that supports the deletion of the data & write again.

    As Teen geek informed, we don't recommend cleaning/erase the recovery discs as they can come in handy if something happens to the machine.

  • Why dreamweaver wants to replace my existing css file when you create a new page

    I created a Web site and I can not dreamweaver to accept my existing css file when I create a new page in the same Web site.  I click on file, create new page, I select page fluid and in the lower right, click on the link to an existing css file and click ok, but dreamweaver tells me so my css file does not exist and wants to replace my existing css file? What's happening?

    Thank you guys for this report we

    It's a little surprising that it is the way it is for a while now. Rather than create a fg with the attached css html, DW invites you to create a new css / replace the existing one. Why?

    The part confusing here is that the "css Attach leader"offers two options.

    1. fix like a normal CSS

    2. attach like a css FG

    If you check the preference to "Join as fluid grid CSS" (see attachment) you should not see this question.

    that is, unless you attach the css like a css FG, DW treats like any other css and waiting for you to bind one another css FG

    However, I'm too confused at first until I realized the difference. Hope this helps

    And thank you for bringing this to our notice

    Someone knows his apare part # and any sugestion wich RAM is compactables for my machine and better plase to get?

    Hello!

    If you want to replace your CD/DVD drive, you should look in your user manual. It should be a list of compatible drives that work with Notepad. Check it!

    The new RAM should be a SO-DIMM DDR2-533. The part number for 1 GB is PA3411U-1M1G.

    Finally and most importantly the best place for spare parts is the authorized service provider. They order all the original parts of Toshiba and the Toshiba site, you can search for the closest.

  • want to replace the faulty wireless card in dv6

    Hello

    I want to replace the card wireless in my HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook (product LK384PA #ABG number).

    I read somewhere (in a lot of places actually) that the BIOS will almost certainly turn off the map (may even refuse to system startup).

    My current faulty card is Intel Centrino Wireless - N 1000 (model 112BNHMW).

    Issues related to the:

    If I buy the same model of card off ebay - the bios will allow it? Or the card should be "tattooed HP?

    If I can't find a map tattooed HP on ebay - I'll be able to use a USB wireless card?

    TIA

    Hello:

    Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

    Cards supported with the corresponding reference numbers are in Chapter 3 begins on page 19.

    What you said is correct. You only NEED to install one of the maps in the maintenance manual and it MUST have this part number HP on it or it won't work at all.

    Laptop you don't POST until the unsupported card is removed.

    Make your request eBay only by the number of the desired part. Do not interview the model of the card.

    You can also get most of the HP maps (of course that you will probably pay more) on the site below.

    Enter the part number you want to buy. If this is not available, you can call HP and give them your model number and the wireless card you want and see if you can get it that way.

    http://h20141.www2.HP.com/hpparts/default.aspx?mscssid=A3443EA1154544F59545214567C9763E

    Or you can use the PartsSurfer from HP:

    Yes, you can use a wireless USB adapter, but I recommend that go into your BIOS and disable the onboard or remove physically, if you never want to use again.
