Q: Lost documents. All of them including a recovery back up disk.
Like some others here, I have suddenly lost all my documents. The strange thing is, last fall I drowned my other Macbook and had to replace it.
I then took it in and most of my documents and pictures were recovered, put on my new computer with the symbol Mcintosh HD on my desktop.
(please excuse me if I use the wrong terminology, I say symbol... icon I suppose)
So, I've not only lost all documents on my computer but they are not ... when I click open the icon for Recovered files, there are no documents there either. There are no documents anywhere. And, I didn't realize I had to turn Time Machine on. I've always had the option of reverting to previous date
on my Sony Vaio, I figured Macbook would have that also.
I think I may have changed my apple ID or password. I did create a new password... because of another problem (not being able to log in when I
wanted to install the new Adobe Flash update. My videos had stopped working also, I was told Adobe was blocked because of security issues and I
should download the new Adobe Flash. Could this be it?
This is maddening.
IS THERE A WAY TO REVERT TO A PREVIOUS DATE?
Thanks for any help.
