Assholes! apple didn't delete anything. you interrupted the process before it was done and therefore lost data. if you pull the plug on any process that is writing to a file, you are more than likely to lose data. if the data was important, you would have had one or more backups, so the only loss would be the time it takes to restore it. > Apple has always > had an less than ideal relationship with its customers due to Steve > Jobs's arrognce being part of the corporate culture, but this is the > first time IME that they have totally sucked. no, it's not the first time, just not in the way you think. > Unless I find a workaround, this may be the deal killer for Apple and > me.
