Early restore point help :(

[macisbetter4you]

I was making a few videos on iMovie and then deleted the projects and i went to empty the trash and some how my imovie is gone with my iphoto.
cant locate it anywhere.....I have no clue what i did because not even my SYSTEM PREFERENCE is coming up.....is there a way i can go back like windows and do a restore point? if so how do i do that?
Thanks Guys

Not unless you had previously made a "Backup" that you can restore from.
You did not say what version of OS X you are running.
