Emptied my trash and a vital folder in the dock is gone, with the questionmark icon on the folder now. I had not done anything I am aware of to m ove the contents of the folder to the trash. I do have a backup but it is a little more than 2 months old and I know there have been changes since then so recovered the folder is vital.

I placed what I thought were old files into trash and emptied the trash.
But did not secure the trash.
Is it possible to get these files back?
Or even do something similar to a system restore , going back to an earlier time?
This is a e mac with osx 10.
Followed instructions to the letter, had media folder in the trash, opened and closed iTunes without any warning windows, emptied trash, re-opened iTunes and it says it can't find any of my files. The "media" folder on my external HD is empty.

There's an annoying thing which occurs systematically with Mail (OS X Snow Leopard) :I write a message to a friend, and put some file as an attachment. I send the message. The original file is located on the Desktop, and put it into the trash. Then, I can't empty the trash can !This is systematic and I have to quit Mail just to empty the trash.

Just emptied my iMac trash. Didn't realize I had so much in there. It was over 103,000 items. I think I gained about 17 GB back. No wonder my iMac has been acting bad! Beach balls, freezes, etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI empty the trash every few days so there is nothing big in there. When I empty the trash the icon still shows that there is trash in there. Opening the trash shows that it is empty. I fixed permissions and rebooted but it never helped. This has been going on for about a week so now I just sit here. I have an early 2008 MacPro with 10 gigs of ram and 4 HDD in it.
