Re: [sussex_mug] Restoring an iCloud backup

[Catherine Hunt]

Hi Stephen! I’ve been using Ancestry since 2014 since they lured me in with the offer of a free trial.  I didn’t want to research my history, because my father was a violent coercive controller, and I thought I might find more like him on his side. Turns out there’s no one else like him, so I can now happily imagine having him carted off to jail now that coercive control is a crime.  Like my grandmother and mum, I know how to be positive and peaceful. My father told me everyday what I couldn’t do, but I knew from my family, teachers and friends that he was talking nonsense.  In the 70’s at my mixed comprehensive school, I asked if I could study computer science and was told that the course was for boys only! I went off to university, got a degree and still didn’t know anything about computers.  I did a PGCE to become an early years teacher. My first job was in Islington and the first place I lived was in Stoke Newington, with a female head of department in computing at the local polytechnic. She showed me some of the work done by a female student and l knew I wanted to do the same.  I had still had no experience of computers.  I found a course at City Lit college, called Computers for the Terrified. I went along, discovered I couldn’t break the computer and I was off.  I’ve been self taught since then and the best courses have been Apple Teacher courses, which are free and amazing! I’m from Hartlepool, which was a steel town. It was the main employer and every family had at least one member working in it.  I grew up watching the furnaces from my bedroom window. I feel that Hartlepool women like my grandmother, mum and me have steel inside us.  The Angel of the North was made from Hartlepool steel and every time I see and visit it, I can feel the positive energy of all Hartlepool women!

She looks great and what you’ve told us about her is quite something. I’ve recently been using Synium’s Mobile Family Tree app to process hundreds of family photos and there are more documents and certificates to add and organise. If you’re after a genealogy program for the Mac/iPad/iPhone I very much recommend it and their service is excellent. Just a happy customer, as they say. Cheers, Stephen You meet your destiny on the road you take to avoid it. ~ Carl Jung On 14 Mar 2023, at 13:21, Catherine Hunt <cahun...@gmail.com> wrote:  Omg Sam!!! Thank you! That has just worked!  I didn’t know about using iCloud.com, but will definitely do so in the future.  I accidentally deleted a folder, was is down to me being left handed. The option to Share had Delete underneath. I can see that it’s less likely to happen if you are using your right hand.  I wanted to share a folder about my grandmother with my brother, who has just joined Ancestry.  She was an amazing woman, so here’s a picture of her, with many many, many thanks!!!  <556801654.889310.jpg> Best wishes Catherine ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sent from my iPhone On 14 Mar 2023, at 12:38, Sam - MacAmbulance <i...@macambulance.com> wrote: Hi Catherine If you log into iCloud.com and go to iCloud Drive there should be a Trash/Undelete function there. If the folder wasn’t in iCloud Drive but was in the Files section just on the iPhone itself, you’d need to wipe/reset the phone and restore from your last iCloud or iTunes backup, which may be a bit extreme! _ Regards Sam Mullen +44 (0)7747778022 i...@macambulance.com www.macambulance.com MacAmbulance Ltd.

This morning I tried to share a folder from my Files on my iPhone. I found the link to share, pressed it and it then disappeared. I’m worried I have deleted it. There is an earlier iCloud backup. Is it possible to restore that backup to my phone?
