Iphone 3GS was dropped and will not turn on or respond to USB connection.  Is there any way to extract the data off when it is not responding so that I can restore to my new phone?

The phone is physically intact, but you can see the LCD is cracked behond the glass. I have tried plugging it in, tried putting it on the charger, and resetting it using the off and home buttons, bit response. I don't need the phone to work, but I do need to be bale to back it up in order to restore to the new phone.  Is there any way to extract the data or back up the hard drive without repairing the phone?  Just curious what my options are before I spend cash trying to fix the phone and find out there was another way to get the data.  Any thoughts here or should a good repair shop being able to create a backup somehow?

Im not going to be much help because I don't know of anything else to besides take it somewhere that fixes electronics and see if they can get it off some how maybe if you take it to an apple store they can do something to get your information.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    When my wife's Mac Book Pro was being updated to the latest version of OS X the laptop locked up at a grey screen with the Apple icon and status bar.  Is there any way to recover the data and complete the install?  I have not tried anything yet because of the data issue.  I am not sure which OS X version as I did not install the software.

  • One of the folders on my external hard drive has transformed into a unix executable file and I can no longer access my files. Is there any way to save the data?

    One of the folders on my external hard drive has transformed into a unix executable file and I can no longer access my files. Is there any way to save the data?

    Wow, have seen Files do that, but a whole Folder as I recall!
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

  • Is there any way to print  the data inside  the Notes field of MIR6 Report

    Hello Gurús.
    We need to include the data inside the Notes field in the report MIR6 - INVOICE OVERVIEW - report.
    Is there any way to print  the data inside (comments)  the Notes field as well in the Report  ?
    We found that the only way is to open the Notes and print it, but it takes time, any idea ?
    Rgds.
    MCM.

    There's nothing built-in that does that. If you only have text fields and they don't have any formatting or other property that would prevent it (e.g., Date, character limit), you can run a simple script to populate each field with the field name, and then print. A more complicated approach would be a script that adds text annotations near/over each field that shows the field name. This would just be for documentation purposes, but it's possible. Post again if you'd like help with the first. You'll probably have to pay someone for the second approach if you don't want to do it yourself.

  • I have written a binary file with a specific header format in LABVIEW 8.6 and tried to Read the same Data File, Using LABVIEW 7.1.Here i Found some difficulty.Is there any way to Read the Data File(of LABVIEW 8.6), Using LABVIEW 7.1?

    I have written a binary file with a specific header format in LABVIEW 8.6 and tried  to Read the same Data File, Using LABVIEW 7.1.Here i Found some difficulty.Is there any way to Read the Data File(of LABVIEW 8.6), Using LABVIEW 7.1?

    I can think of two possible stumbling blocks:
    What are your 8.6 options for "byte order" and "prepend array or string size"?
    Overall, many file IO functions have changed with LabVIEW 8.0, so there might not be an exact 1:1 code conversion. You might need to make some modifications. For example, in 7.1, you should use "write file", the "binary file VIs" are special purpose (I16 or SGL). What is your data type?

  • Had to crash my computer. Lost my recovery key. Have my iphone paired with previous install. is there any way to get the data back?

    In order to upgrade my computer from Windows xp to Windows 7, I lost access to firefox without thinking to generate a recovery key. Is there any way to get my data back?

    If the only thing you have paired to the account is an iPhone the answer is that unfortunately no. The iPhone client (Firefox Home) is just a "consumer" of the Sync data and can't do much.
    My best advice is to keep the iPhone synced to have access to bookmarks and manually transfer them to your new profile.
    Sorry to be the carrier of the bad news.

  • Is there any way to spy the data communicating between the GPIB and the PC.

    HI
    I have a device communicating with my PC using IEEE 488 GPIB card. Do we have any way to spy the data exchanged by the device and the PC running a different application.
    I am trying to program an application that needs to gather data from a HP 54602A - 150 MHz - 4 Channel oscilloscope using a IEEE 488 add-on card. I am able to talk to the device and request the device number through MAX. I need to know the other commands to the oscilloscope. Can any one help me in this regard.
    With Regards
    S.Gopal

    Launch NI Spy (Start >> Programs >> National Instruments >> NI Spy). You may want to configure it to capture 64k of data instead of 64 bytes since the strings sent to the device may be larger than 64 bytes.
    Start capturing with NI Spy and then run the application. All of the calls made to the device will be captured in NI Spy. You can then look at the data buffers to determine what strings are being sent to your device.

  • HT4314 I have two games Tribez and Tribez and Castles on my iPad. I have to send my iPad Air back for repair to crack glass. Is there any way to save the games., for when I have to restore back up

    I have two games tribez and tribez and Castle. As my new iPad air has a cracked screen I have to send it back for repair. I have to do a reset and restore backup when I get it back. Is there any way to back up above games. On tribez I have reached level 99 and will be annoying to starts again.

    Do you have a computer with iTunes on it that you have associated the iPad with?
    If the answer is yes, simply set iTunes up to back up the device locally, fully sync the apps, photos, movies, etc. A copy of everything, including the config of the device and all your settings (scores) will be made on the computer's drive. This even includes a backup copy of all the apps. When you get the replacement device (probably a refurbished blank unit), a Restore from that backup will totally reconstruct what you have today.
    If the answer is no, you will have quite a bit more work to do in order to get back to the original state that the iGadget is currently in (minus the crack).

  • I've broke my phone, it won't switch on, is there any way to recover the data from it?

    My phone has split up the side after I dropped it down some concrete stairs and now it won't switch on, so I need to know if there is anyway to recover the data from it, such as phone numbers, photo's etc. Anyone had this problem?
    I've tried plugging it in to the computer but it doesn't do anything, and tried plugging it in to the wall to see if that will switch it on, but nothing.
    Any help gratefully received! Steve

    If it will not turn on - you have zero chance of getting anything off the phone.

  • HT204150 I mistakenly deleted my calendar and my shared calendars from my I pad. Is there any way to bring the data back

    I mistakenly deleted all y calendar entries. And shared calendar eateries.  How can I get this data back onto my iPad

    If you've been making backups to icloud, then you should perform a restore to the ipad, unless you had the data on a computer, in which case you could try to restore the calendar file from a backup.

    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your phone.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your phone is new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.

If it does, is there anyway i can hide/delete some songs off my computer but keep them on her computer because I don't want her music on my compute but i don't want to repurchase everything i have....

    Try restoring your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. it won't remove anything from your iTunes library. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

  • I do not have Aperture installed on my computer anymore but I do have my old library.  Is there any way to extract the ORIGINAL image from the library without having Aperture installed?

    I started using Aperture back when it first came out.  I really had no idea what I was doing when I set everything up.  I got a new computer but do not have my Aperture disc anymore but I do have my old library.  I can get into the library and find the pictures in the Preview and Thumbnails folders, but these obviously are not the original pictures.  The ones in the Preview folder are only 10% of the size of the original digial photo.  I want to know if there is any way to get or reconstruct the original picture using the files in the library without installing Aperture.

    Hi Refringgers,
    Install the 30 day trial of Aperture. Open your Aperture Library, export the Masters and Versions.
    Other than that I will make a strong recommendation not to muck within the Aperture library. Yes, you can find your photos in there, but if you ever decide to again use it may well be unable to be opened. The other thing is the photos are scattered around in a gazillion folders it would take a long time, of course depending on the number of photos, to retrieve them.
    Cordially,
    RicD
