I was trying to figure out how watch 4oD (as like many people it just loads forever and never actually plays anything) so I used the help on this page: 4oD (UK) - Can't stream

I started with this:

Close all browser windows and then:

Remove the adobe cache:

rm ~/.adobe -rf

But terminal said it couldn't remove this as it was busy. Everything was closed so I thought if I reset my computer it would stop this program being in use and allow me to continue the process. However when I logged on again EVERYTHING was gone! Music, Documents, Downloads etc. (I am definitely signed into the correct user).

Is there anyway I can reset my computer to an hour ago or something to reverse this? I honestly don't understand how I did this!

  • Did you type a literal `*` character in running that `rm` command? – dobey Jan 28 '14 at 19:08
  • And how did you reboot? Did you just switch it off or used *Magic SysRq*? (The REISUB stuff) – s3lph Jan 28 '14 at 19:13
  • Sorry I thought I was going to get an email when somebody replied! No I didn't type a * character just the code that I typed above and I restarted (sorry not reset) by going to 'shut down...' (top right icon on screen) > 'restart'. Thanks for replying! – Frannatello Jan 31 '14 at 17:29
