reset to an earlier time to regain deleted photos

I deleted files and photos by mistake to create space so I could download and install Yosemite OS X. Can I retrieve the photos by resetting to an earlier time and how do I do that?

MacBook Air (13-inch Late 2010)

If you have your Photo data backup on the Time machine drive than definitely you will be able to retrieve the photos by restoring them from the time machine onto your macbook air.


If you don’t have the Time machine backup then you will have to do a data recovery by running data recovery software like Data Rescue 4.

Unless you don’t recover your files from the trash, don’t trash any other items. If you trash any other items then the deleted files will be overwritten by the recent deleted files. The more you delete later, tougher it will get to recover your photo data with the recovery software.


Hope this helps......
