Getting bookmarks off the iPhone

So here is what happened. I sync'ed the iPhone, then my computer crashed and yes, my backup drive failed during restore. So all my bookmarks are stored on my iPhone, but I don't have the iphone.backup file (since the drive crashed). Is there a way to extract the bookmarks directly from the iphone?

I am also having difficulty with podcast bookmarks in IOS 5 on my Ipod Touch 4. It no longer remembers where it was if I play a song and then return to the podcast. And it does not mark the podcasts as listened to. The podcasts return to the beginning.
Is there someplace we can report these bugs to Apple?

  • I have an iPhone 3g. I cannot retrieve the photos from the photo library. Is there a way to get them off the iPhone?

    I am using a Windows 64 bit premium, the phone is the 3g 16gig, and I cannot retrieve the photos from the photo library. I can retrieve the camera roll. How do I get the photos from the photo library?

    I'm sorry I was not clear, I am extremely frustrated with iPhones right now. That is the reason my new phone is an Android!
    I have a camera roll folder on the iPhone that has 346 photos that I took with the iPhone. I was able to retrieve those simply by connecting the iPhone to the computer. I have a second folder on the iPhone that is called Photo Library that has 818 photos that I wanted to retrieve from my iPhone. These photos were placed onto the iPhone from a sync, but my computer crashed and I had to format the hard drive. Doing so obviously caused me to loose all of my photos on my computer. The photos on the iPhone in the Photo Library are associated to the old computer folder library so it will not sync to the new computer. I was trying to retrieve those photos, but was not having any luck.
    UPDATE! I remembered that I had backed up the computer hard drive to an external hard drive before the crash. I located ALL of the photos on that hard drive that I was trying to retrieve from the iPhone Photo Library.
    *NOTE* If anyone has an answer to how to retrieve these photos, please post as my father is also have issues trying to retrieve photos the same way only he did not have his backed up.

  • Getting photos off the iphone

    How do I move the photos taken on the iphone to my computer? Do they become available by performing a backup via iTunes? If so, where are they being stored? If not, then what?

    If you connect your iPhone, your operating system should detect it as a normal camera device if there are any photos on your camera roll. So you can use any application you would use to copy pictures from a normal digital camera (e.g. the Windows Scanner- and Camera Wizard).

  • How do you get Voice Memos off the iPhone and onto my Mac???

    Is this yet another iPhone dead end??
    I used the Voice Memo app that comes with the iPhone to record some rehearsals and now I want to move them to my Mac, edit them, make CDs, share online.
    I can't find any way to get them off the iPhone, unless I click the "Share" button, which means I can email them. But, it won't let me email the longer ones. I don't know how large the files are, but it just won't do it. I don't see any other facility for moving these files to my Mac. What is up with that???? iTunes provides no access to these files.
    Is there some proprietary utility for the Mac that will allow me to access these files and move them to my Mac??? It would be nice if the iPhone would show up as a mounted volume which I could then browse for files, but that would make too much sense and be contrary to the control freak nature of Apple and it's iPhones/iPod Touches. I would call it another lousy user experience, but it's just a user non-experience, a complete dead end.
    Is there any way to get these Voice Memo files off of the iPhone besides emailing them??

    Thank you for replying!
    That kb article refers to the iPod Nano and not the iPhone nor the iPod Touch.
    The Synchronizing section you pointed to does not work. I have a big bunch of voice memos on the iPhone. I tried the sync. Three of them were moved to the Mac, the rest were ignored. Four others were moved to iTunes Music/Music/Unknown with numbered names (i had given several of the voice memos names with the Custom label on the iPhone). For the synch I selected "Include voice memos."
    After a sync, or several syncs, none of the other voice memos were moved to the Voice Memo playlist, nor are they in the iTunes Music library.
    How do you get them to sync? I need to move them off of the iPhone and onto my Mac!

  • I updated my 3GS to os5 and set up icloud and it backed up, although, the backup says incomplete. I turned off the contacts and they are now all gone off the iphone. How do i get them back? I feel like they are in icloud, they are on other iphone i have.

    I did turn the contacts back on and it didnt work. I am hoping the wi-fi connection I am on at school is not compatible, and it will work when I get home. Thanks!

  • Getting Albums & Large Videos off the iPhone

    I tried to get help from this community to solve my problem only to end up handling it myself.
    I am not without knowledge however, granted the one thing I cannot post here is the iTunes
    system file code that prevents having to erase & sync the iPhone. Which I should add if you
    do this (erase & sync) it would appear to only delete your music, but thats "as far as I know".
    So to the gifts I bring to this place.. iPhone Explorer & why your transfers fail epicly.
    Google the "iPhone Explorer" because you will need it, go ahead say you've used it an failed.
    However before you dismiss my advice did you remember to....... UNDO YOUR IPHONE ENCRYPTION?!
    Yes.. it would seem that using this application is DEPENDANT on wither you have encrypted your
    iPhone thru iTunes. This is the only way to browse the pictures directory an copy ALL the folders
    out onto your PC. I repeat, phone to pc, pics from your phone onto your PC.
    What about the large videos you might ask.. WELL.. this applies to windows users ONLY.
    go into the directory below, make sure to change your name where I've written "your name here"
    otherwise you'll just be told the directory doesn't exist.
    C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR NAME HERE\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    I will say it again, "your name here" refers to your windows user name!
    Now once in this directory you'll see a folder or maybe more than 1, this depends on how many people
    use your iTunes an back up their iPhones onto your pc.
    Oh but wait, your going to say I never mentioned you had to backup your iPhone thru iTunes
    in order for this to work, an just maybe your on someone elses pc an you've never backed up
    your stuff here before an your worried it'll tell you some crap about "erasing & syncing".
    Well relax.. armageddon isn't upon you yet. Still use the backup function an go to the directory
    as mentioned, why? because! when you view the files by list & detail you'll be able to sort the entire
    folder by file "SIZE" this should help narrow down (quite fast) which of these scribble scrabble named
    files might be your "impossibru" to xfer video file(s).
    If you've got issues getting smaller 5min or less video files off your iPhone this will still work but your
    going to have to try to guess harder which file it might be.
    Once you've located the possible file, copy it over somewhere else you won't lose it, for the sake of
    all things.. DON'T mess with the original in the backup folder!! just COPY it outside.
    Once you've got the file(s) outside, if you haven't turned on/off "file name extensions" so that the
    .exe/.txt/.jpg an such show on all files, you'll notice the files I had you copy have no extensions!
    Just rename the file to whatever you want it to be like test.mov an it should open just fine provided
    you've got ALL the proper codecs for viewing video files (yes this matters an even if you think your
    pc is just friggin awesome you could still be missing the right one or an updated version of the codec
    you need most for this). Also you'll want a decent video viewing program to go along with the proper
    codecs. For your aid I've supplied the url's of such things for you below.
    Codecs: http://www.codecguide.com/download_mega.htm (Get the "mega" version, don't argue with me).
    Video Viewing: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ (I don't care who your pc tech is an what they said either, just use it).
    You will have to reboot once you install these 2 things, it would also be advised your copy of windows
    is legit an fully updated. You also might want to look into "CCleaner" if your brave enough to handle
    cleaning your own pc's temp files just to be on the safe side, it's registry cleaner is verified by me
    to do a decent job but hey, use it at your own risk as the cleaner isn't a required step to make this
    all work.
    Anyhow with this you've got your large video files & your 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc albums off the iPhone finally by now.
    Enjoy renaming the pics as you'll spend alot of time folder diving but hey it's worth not losing it all right??
    PS: It helps to move all the pics out of all the new folders into one folder, hence the above statement.
    PEACE! an to all you "hipsters" who said it couldn't be done, you KNOW what I wanna say >.>

    The method you suggest is how I have been doing it, everything copies over easily except the two large files.
    I wonder if there is a fix for that coming? I want the files, but it looks as if I can't delete them either, I can't move them in anyway, or open them in anything but the photo app.

  • I have previously viewed movies and TV Shows on my IPHONE that I want to delete and free up space so that I can buy new movies/TV show to watch.  How do I get them off my IPHONE and my ITUNES account?

  • So I have an iPad 2 for two years. Has never been dropped or in water or damaged in any way....now the volume is distorted and I get booted off the web all the time. Plus it shows and no service in top left corner. Any one have these issues?

    So I got is iPad as a gift and the same issues I had with my iPhone 4S is also happening with my iPad. Will Apple cover the problem as it lies within there updates or something. All I know I have taken perfect care of both products and volume is distorted. Can't listen to music, I get booted off the web all the time, I can't even chat with Apple icare it won't work and no service shows on top left corner. What is wrong with Apple products? I'm thinking it's time to switch! I've had to change my iPhone twice now......first time for mic not working and then camera shutter kept sticking. Same on my iPad........ I don't want to pay to get this fixed as it's not my fault this is happening...... It's software apparently?

    This really is starting to feel like a hardware issue than a software one.
    Especially if hearing noises when you connecting up your iPad for charging.
    Something happened to your iPad that has nothing to do with a software update.
    This is why I recommend that
    I can't help you any farther.
    It sounds as if you really need to take this iPad in for a repair.
    Since you are reluctant to do this, there is nothing more I can suggest to you.
    Good Luck on whatever you decide to do.

    I have tried to hold the "home" and "power" button to reboot
    I have tried powering it off
    I have tried, to unplug the cable, hold the "home" button and then plug it in.
    Can't check the SN or warranty, cause it is stuck in restore mode.
    Is the hard drive gone? Should there be something replaced.

    This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Usually this is caused by your antivirus or firewall blocking iTunes access to the Internet. It can also occur if the phone is jailbroken or if the computer you are using was ever used to jailbreak an iDevice.

  • How to get music off my iphone

    How can I get music off my iphone? My other itunes library was wiped and and now I have a new one, I cant do the new updated I'm scared ill lose everything on my phone.

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.
    The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is ituns purchases.  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You should copy everything form the old computer, or your backup copy of your old comptuer.

  • I have rearranged all icons on the second and third pages to have a just a photo on my home, but if i switch off the iphone when i restarted it all the icons come back in the old position on the home and second page. I have ios5.

    I have rearranged all icons on the second and third pages to have a just a photo on my home, but if i switch off the iphone when i restarted it all the icons come back in the old position on the home and second page. I have ios5.

    you can suggest it here - http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    And it is only a problem if you want a blank first screen.  Personally, it would drive me nuts always having to swipe over one page to get to my apps - the only time I unlock my iPhone is to use it or run an app, so no, I have no need nor desire to have a first screen with no icons at all.
    But, if they'd put it in as an option so people like yourself can also have what they want, that's fine too    So send them your feedback (they actually do listen - iOS 5 includes a number of things people have been asking for on these forums, like being able to delete individual entries from the call history, inproved alerts/notifications, being able to opt out of all the location based data they collect,...).

  • ITunes could not sync bookmarks to the iPhone...

    I've been running into this problem when trying to sync my iPhone 4 to iTunes for a while now. I was hoping that the latest iOS update would have fixed it, but it seems like it didn't.
    I get this error every time I try to sync:
    iTunes could not sync bookmarks to the iPhone "Crake" because the bookmarks are in use by the iPhone.
    Close the bookmarks settings on the iPhone, then sync again.
    I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.7, iTunes 10.2.2 and iOS 4.3.3.
    I have already restored my iPhone, replaced the bookmarks and closed all applications before syncing; nothing seems to work.
    Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a solution?
    Thanks!

    Just spent an hour with Applecare support.. I had been getting a message when I tried to look at Bookmarks on the iPhone "Bookmarks are being synced. Please add the bookmark once syncing has completed" - this has been the message for 10 days now on the iPhone whenever I try to create a bookmark or look at Bookmarks list.  Applecare advised resetting the Bookmarks in iTunes by manual setting but as I was talking on theiPhone I had to finish the call to do the sync.. Then I got the message in iTunes as above that the bookmarks are in use..
    Need to retain Mobileme cos I don't want to lose KEYCHAIN syncing yet until I have worked out waht to do with the service not being available on iCloud.
    I thought maybe the update of the phone to iOS5 would clear up this Safari Bookmark error but it was like safari had remained running throughout the update to iOS5 process - it looked exactly the same..
    So frustrating .. and yet the iPad is working perfectly on iOS 5 - it and two computers are all in sync on all Mobileme items..  Just iPhone Bookmarks is out.
