I have recently installed Office for Mac 2016. As part of my exploration process I have opened some of the sample Excel files on the opening screen. I now discover the sample files have been 'automatically' saved to my OneDrive-Personal, apparently with no action on my part. I have now discovered there is no obvious way to remove these files, I simply opened them to see what they consisted of. This of course also means I can see no way to remove any of my own files which may become surplus to my needs.
Please can someone show me how to delete files from my OneDrive-Personal. There seems no way to access the OneDrive-Personal except through the Office 2016 applications. Even more frustrating, despite determined attempts, the Excel help files seem devoid of any information about the OneDrive-Personal.
Leverage to recover permanently deleted files from Trash on macOS.

Whether you delete data from your Mac’s Trash using the Command + Shift + Option + Delete or Delete Immediately option, your files are deleted permanently from macOS. This is when the Stellar Data Recovery Professional for Mac appears. Stellar Data Recovery Professional V9.0 is a helpful specially designed to recover permanently deleted files be it pictures, videos, audio, spreadsheet, PowerPoint, Word, emails, applications, etc. Further, the software recovers permanently deleted files from an external hard drive.
Download & install the Software for macOS trash recovery Follow the Steps to Recover Deleted Files from Trash 1. Run the software and select the desired option from the ‘Select What to Recover’ interface. Select the hard drive i.e. Macintosh HD since Trash is located on the start-up disk and data needs to be recovered from here. Toggle Deep Scan to start scanning. Allow the Scanning process to complete successfully.
After successful completion of scanning, the software lists all the recoverable files and folders present in the Macintosh HD in a Tabbed view of scanned Tree – Classic List / File List / Deleted List 4. Choose a desired file or folder to launch Preview Select preferred files or folders 5. Click Recover and state a Destination to start saving the recoverable files to another drive. This completes the Mac Trash files recovering process.
You need to activate the Stellar Data Recovery Professional for Mac to save the recoverable files to another destination. Watch the below video to register the Stellar Data Recovery Professional on Mac. Prior to purchase I read that Stellar Mac Data Recovery covers Intel and Power PC (G3 on), and your info also states 'All Intel based Mac and Power PC'. Have just opened package and am concerned that the disc sent states under Processor INTEL, POWER PC (G4 or later)! I have not loaded disc and need to know whether this disc will work on a G3 Power PC running OS10 Leopard? Finally, is it possible to load the recovered files into a new file on the original Mac or should it e loaded onto an external device?
Hi, I downloaded your demo version for a G5 PowerPC running 10.4.11. I installed it on the mac as I only have the one but have now run it from a copy I made to an external storage device. I didn't delete the version installed on the hard drive. I am trying to recover folders which were accidently put in the trash and deleted. The demo runs fine and I can see files being recovered but then at some point it crashes.
It has done the same running it from the mac hard drive and from the storage device. Does this mean that I won't be able to recover the deleted data or will the full version work differently? Hi Dan, I think you have selected the deleted file recovery option from the software and recovered.MOV file, which might be missed its signature. I suggest you to try RAW Recovery option from the software and which recover your files and folders on the basis of signature, it will take more time then deleted file recovery but you can see better results with the help of raw recovery. Another case might be happen that your file which has been deleted, gets corrupted before recovery or overwritten by any other file, in that case it is not possible to see the correct file or file will not open up. Hi Shona, I think you also did the same think which has been done by Dan. Follow the steps as show above, if you did anything else please try to explain it in detail.
One more thing Demo version shows the preview of recoverable files which can be recovered by the full version of the software, their is no difference between demo and full except price. Hi Aaren, Yes Stellar has this capability to add new file type which you need to recover which is not in the predefined file lists of the software. You need to follow the steps to add header as shown in the attached file: Go to Page 48 in PDF Thanks Amit Pandey. Hi Gary, Would like to know which scanning method are you using. There are two of them 1) Quick Recovery 2) Raw Recovery (signature based scanning) By nature Quick recovery is much faster than the Raw recovery. It won't take 24 hrs to scan a hard drive of 230GB until unless the hard drive is free from bad sectors/blocks.
On the contrary, Raw recovery takes much more time than Quick recovery because it scans the entire hard drive blocks and sectors for the lost data. But in both the case the scanning may not stretch to 24 hrs for a health drive. Thanks Amit Pandey. Hello, I had a problem when I cleaned trashed files from my external HDD to free more space, but the OS deleted practically all my HDD. I lost more than 400GB of files, most of then was Photos.
Now I'm using Stellar Mac Data Recovery, but I experienced some issues: 1. Qse plane software for mac. The first time I tryed to recovery, I used Photo Recovery, but: a) The file names was changed for numbers; b) No preview; c) Files recovered didn't open; 2. Now I'm trying Raw Recovery, selecting the file types I want. Results: a) Display some folders with each type of file = grouped files by type, no information by location (original folder); b) All filenames are numbers; c) No information about date (creation/modification); d) Located more than 47,900 files. It's too much files and difficult to preview and select file by file. No bulk selecting (like: shift + mouse click from first to last selection, or other combination of keys), you can only 'select all' or 'unselect all' on the master folder checkbox; e) I decided to select all, recovery all of it and then try to compare the recovered files with my backup to identify what files was missing there. I don't now what program can I use to compare it, because the names and dates was lost.
I think it will be possible using MD5 comparison, but I don't know what program can do it. If you now how, please help me. Some contributions: 1.
Include bulk selection on the recovered list; 2. Include some filter options to be applied after recovered list was displayed to help selecting the files to be recovered. If you know any program I can use to compare the recovered files with my backup I will be glad, remember my backup is organized by folders and names, and the recovered files was a huge list of files in only one folder, and the filenames are numbers and no information about date of creation/modification. That's it, thank you. Hi Jr-Br For your first query: Whenever you run photo recovery module of Mac Data Recovery, by default it runs with raw recovery scanning mechanism that's why each photo and image recovered with sector number instead of name of the file. If you are not able to preview the photo's it mean your photo's has been corrupted and did not open after saving. For your Second Query: As I said RAW Recovery feature could not give's you name, date and time of creation/modification of the file.
It also not provides you the exact location of the file. D) It totally depends upon your size of hard drive, if you have such a big amount of data, software just recover it for you, also software has a feature to recover even a single file amongst 47,900 files. You just need to un-select all and select a specific file(s) which you want to recover.
We don't have any third party tool to compare your data, sorry for that. Hi Amit, I tried to recover selected files using the scanned information saved after a complete drive scan.
The first one, it's work fine, but the second the files were there but don't open. Size is the same, but. I will try to rescan all HDD again. About the letter 'd' in my first comment, the question is: it's will be helpful if we can select a bulk of files and with a 'right click mouse' can select all the selected files to be recovered. Now we need to select with mouse click one-by-one and it's not productive when we have a lots of files.
Now I'm using a program to rename the files using the photo's EXIF information. It will help me to filter the files I really need, because I recovered all photo files and now need to filter it. Hi, I opened a large video file (605MB) in Cubase to extract the audio. Opting for another solution I erased the file from Cubase thinking it would just erase it from the pool. But the file was erased from the original folder and yet did not appear in the trash I have tried the Stellar Data Recovery for Mac and it is finding files removed from the system from a year ago, but not the file that appears to have been deleted just a few hours ago. The system has not been rebooted or reformatted in any way. And yet it will not locate an apparently deleted MOV file.
I have tried the deleted files option and am currently running a photo recovery option. I have checked only MOV files to restore. If it's able to find 44 files deleted last year (so far) why won't it pick up the file that was deleted a few hours ago? It will still take a few hours but I am concerned that I will no longer be able to restore this file which simply must be recoverable if the app is finding older files from last year.
Dear Melissa, Since you have deleted a folder we suggest you to install the data recovery application on your computer. As precautionary measures you can choose to install the recovery software on the partition other than the partition where deleted folder existed. You can then install scan & preview the recoverable files. Now the second option is best suited when your system is dead and with the help of a firewire cable you connect it to a healthy system, mounting its drive and recovering data. Both the methods sounds good but as you mentioned you haven't used the computer after deletion we suggest you to go by installing the software on the system itself, but on another partition. I am a fairly new Mac user. I had lots of music organized in my iTunes.
I then went and deleted the tracks from my finder location so that I wouldn't have doubles taking up room on my computer. Now when I load iTunes, it can't find any of the music. So I guessed that itunes doesn't keep a copy of the songs, even though it says it is downloading into itunes when I updated the library there.
So I got your product and yes it seems all of the songs are there to be recovered. But now I get an error message telling me I need to select another volume to recover to. I have tried making files pretty much everywhere, but I always get the same answer. As far as I can tell, it is calling my hard drive 'macintosh Hd' one volume and I have no others. What I want is for the music to go back where it was, not be saved to some backup cd or something. Can you please tell me step by step what to do at this point?
Thanks, Tawnie. Hi: I have the full, paid, version of Stella Phoenix. I want to recover JPEG files that were erased and removed from trash about two years ago.
I have run the trash recovery as well as the quick recovery. I don't find those files. I know the date that some of them were 'created'-ie the pictures were taken and loaded onto my iMac. That date does not appear in the recovery screen. Must I search by file name? That will be tough because I obviously didn't keep them.
Can I search the files with thumbnails?-if so how? I run Snow Leopard on an Intel iMac. Hi Bruce, It would be quite difficult to say whether the software will recover data that was trashed 2 years back.
Since then the hard drive must have went through no. Of read-write processes resulting in overwriting of the data present at that location. Once the data is overwritten it is difficult to be traced by any recovery tool. Anyways you can still try below method to check if the trashed jpegs can still be recovered.
Launch Stellar Mac data recovery and click on Preferences icon. Goto File List - Photo Recovery and unselect everything expect the JPEG files. Also navigate to side icons of audio and video, deleted and raw recovery. Again Unselect all file formats. This way the tool will scan for.jpeg file extension only.
Click OK to save the settings Now select your volume/HD and begin the scan. The result will let you know if jpeg are recovered or not? You can also apply another method. No need to filter any of the file formats. Simply proceed with drive selection and scan.
Once the scan is done jump to left side of the panel and click 'Filter List'. A small windows appears. Enter the extension as -.jpeg, enter size if you know and enter previous months like 24 in the date option. Click OK to save the settings. The tool will automatically lists all the files (jpeg) recovered from last 24 months.
If it doesn't show up then it won't be able to recover those files as they are overwritten by new data. Let us know if you need further assistance. Hi, I am trying to recover some.MOV files which I accidentally deleted.
I have tried deleted recovery, photo recovery and now raw and I am having no luck. I am recovering some files but not the one I was looking for.
Its surprising i am recovering files deleted a long time ago, but the ones deleted recently I cant get. Im about to give up, just wondering if you had any suggestions? Could the videos be stored under a different extension?
Or does the mac not actually fully delete the files as soon as trash is emptied? Hi Amit: I was given an Okay by a client to delete about 200 GB worth of graphic files and their back-ups last week, as they were taking a lot of space.
Delete Files Now For Mac Windows 10
Three days later, I'm told 'Hold-it, we still need some of those files!' Of course they had been deleted just the day before. The files were deleted from a Mac Pro; OSX 10.6.8 and from both sections of a HFS+ formatted two-partition 1 TB drive. I have run Deleted Trash Recovery on both partitions, but it seems it won't or can't recover the needed files due to their size.
Of the few larger files that were recovered, those over 1.97 GB are corrupted and the compressed.SIT files will not expand. I specialize in large format production and the files needed for recovery are: Photoshop live layer.PSB files, TIFF, JPG, or compressed.SIT files with sizes ranging from 2 GB to 8 GB each. Yes, Gigabyte. I was able to add.PSB to the header list, but was not given 'GB' as a size option, only MB.
Also, I have run out of room on my two external drives to write any additional recoveries. If I delete the previously recovered files from the externals, do I risk overwriting anything on the main hard drives from which I'm trying to recover files from? Please, please help! I've been running the recovery software for about 48 hours straight.
We really need these files. Thank you Amit, especially if you can pull our (me and my client's) butts out of the fire! Hi Amit, A few days ago, I accidentally deleted my iPhoto library and with it my whole photo collection. I have a 320GB Mac OSX Lion and I used the Raw Recovery to scan my computer which took more or less 11 hours. I didn't get to preview everything but it looked like it found the pictures.
I wanted to test out if the 'Recover' actually works so I selected a small file and pressed 'Recover'. It seemed to work ok. I started looking through the other folders and not long after that the program crashed:( So I re-opened it and I wanted to try Trash Recovery but my HDD wasn't in the list. I also, tried Photo Recovery on both Macintosh HD and ST9320325ASG Media (are they the same drive?) but no files are found.
I then tried the Deleted Volume Recovery. When I selected that option, it showed me a list of drives that I could scan, but when I select my drive, nothing really happens. The process starts and the first cube is greyed out, but then the scanning display goes away and all there is are icons of other Recovery options greyed out down the bottom. I tried to do the Raw Recovery again but this time, the list of drives that was available to scan when I first run the Raw Recovery had changed. Again, I run it on Macintosh HD and ST9320325ASG Media just to be sure.
Both process finished A LOT faster this time (less than an hour!) and 'No data is found'. Why did the list of hard drives change?
And what happened to all the files that the program originally found before it crashed? Please help me:(.
I want to recover deleted files and downloaded Mac Data Recovery. I selected just Canon type files and selected deleted files to see if program would recover anything before I bought the program. It is working away but just says SCANNING IN PROGRESS - SEARCHING DELETED FILES. The drive is a 2 TB USB. There is no feedback on progress and it has been working for over 6 hours. The drive is not giving any problems and has not been formatted. Files deleted and emptied from TRASH.
How long before I should give up? Imac with 10.9.2 + 8GB ram. I am trying to recover files and folders from accidentaly formatted 1TB External Drive.
All the files and folders comes up when I scan my drive. I select it and hit Recover. A root folder appears in my specified location (I tried to save the recovered files in my mac as well as new 2TB external Hard drive), but appears empty. I've attempted this a few times now with the same result. Root files does not show anything but it is not empty as it has finite size.
Some how my files are hidden in recovered root folder which I am not able to see. How to make the hidden files visible that's supposed to be in that root folder? Dear Suresh & Hannah, We request you to please follow the steps below to show hidden files on your Mac Operating System: Note: This changes the default setting of Mac OS X so that Finder always shows all files. Step 1: Launch the Terminal (found in /Applications/Utilities) and enter the following commands exactly as shown below: - For OS X Mavericks 10.9 - defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE - For Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, 10.7 Lion, 10.6 Snow Leopard - defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE Step 2: Hit Return, nothing happens yet because you must relaunch the Finder for the changes to take effect. This is done by ‘killing’ the Finder process, which is also done through the command line with the following string: killall Finder Again, hit Enter/Return, and you’ll discover the Finder quits and relaunches itself very quickly with the changes in effect.
Now you can see your hidden files successfully. Hope this helps. Let us know for further queries. Hi Amit I had help from Stellar via remote support yesterday. And after removing 200gb of 'stuff' from my external hard drive then formatting it I was able to recover 100gb of deleted files from my Imac to it.
However this side of computer world I am unfamiliar with - how do I not reinstall it to the imac. The root file contains smaller files of Pngs and things I am unfamiliar with.
If I send them all back to the Imac will they all go back to their pre existing positions? Folders have been broken down into elements - this was not the recovery I was looking for. Hoping you can help MB. Hi Amit, This morning I emptied my trash without noticing that I had accidentally dragged a folder from the desktop into the trash. The folder was very important and contained hundreds of Doc., JPEG., Photoshop files, MOV., and any number of other random file formats.
I ran quick recovery immediately but am having trouble sorting through where it could all be. Is there anyway to recover the folder itself? Not just the hundreds if not thousands of random scattered files mixed in with all the other crap I've trashed in the last few years.
Thanks brother. Begging and pleading for help, Walton. I have an older version of Stellar recovery which has helped in the passed.
However, as I try to recover.iba and.ibook files accidentally (always the case, eh?) deleted Stellar seems to be unable to find any of these files. I have tried all the modes of recovery, finding thousands of other files - NO.iba or.ibook! Currently doing a full scan 'lost/deleted volumes' which will take many many hours (2 hrs for 10%, finding 5 lost/volumes thus far?!) The files were also purged from the wastebasket (!) Should I be using the latest release? As could be expected, my latest backups seem to have the same issue. The most recent intact backup I have dates from 6 months ago. There was lots of changes/updates over those many months.
It would be nice to recover the.iba files. Thanks for any help in recovering these files. Dear Walton, Thanks for sharing your concern. I recommend you to run 'Deleted Recovery' (Right Next to Quick Scan) and scan your Macintosh HD (Startup drive) with Stellar Mac data recovery software.
You can also go to Preferences and select only JPEG, MOV, PDF, DOC, XLSX, PPTX etc. So that software recovers only your desired file format. Otherwise, let Deleted Recovery scan your entire hard drive and helps you recover all of the files which were accidentally deleted. Your deleted fielder will be listed either by their names or with title 'Lost Folders'. You have to manually check your files in every recovered Lost Folder. Hope this helps!!
Delete Files Now For Mac But No Free Space
Do let us know for further query. Hi Eric, For lost volumes & partitions, we recommend you run the option 'Search Lost Deleted Volumes' of the Stellar Mac data recovery software.
Can't Delete File Mac
If your file format isn't showing up then you can manually add file types through following steps: 1) Goto software preferences 2) Click 'Advanced' tab 3) In 'Add Header' section, drag-n-drop 10 or more.swift files and click 'Add Header' button. The software will now scan the hard drive for newly added file types. Hope this information helps. Do let us know for further query. Hi Oriane, No it is not important to buy the software before loosing your files. For better recovery results we recommend you can apply filters to the scan so that software looks only for deleted.DOCX files.
Below is the process for the same: 1) Select Macintosh Drive.
