My back up from last Thursday on my iphone 4s is not showing up in my itunes. I deleted something today and I need to restore from last Thursdays backup.
HP Pavilion dv7 Note Windows 7 Home edition
Have you backed up the device since last Thursday? If so, every time the iPhone does a backup, it overwrites the last backup. So the most current backup you have made is the one that shows in iTunes.
Your backup files are in a location on the computer, but you cannot compel iTunes to use it. This support document will show you the location. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946

My back up from last Thursday on my iphone 4s is now showing up in my itunes. I deleted something today and I need it back desperately. I need to restore my phone back to last Thursday when the information was on my phone. How do I find the backup on my pc and once I find it how do I move it to itunes for me to restore my phone to that day?
I wished I had known this before I said yes to using icloud. I guess those things will be lost and gone forever, since I do not want to lose my present settings and data. Also do not want to go through the hassle of backing up present, then resetting phone, then restoring oldest back up, then backing up oldest backup to pc, so I can safely backup selected items to my pc; then reset my phone again to restore latest back up. It would take way too much time and no guarantee.
I backed up my phone to my pc, but have not checked it yet, so don't know if it worked.
If I decide to quit using icloud (which will probably happen since backing up to external hard drive allows me to open backups) what will happen to my present data and settings? Will they just remain as they were without icloud, as they were before icloud? I'm scared to just delete it; not knowing what will happen. Also why is icloud now my outgoing mail server, when my web email was before I installed icloud and how do I restore my web email as my outgoing mail server. I am using yahoo/at&t for all my mail.
What will happen to my contacts, notes, messages, voice memos, calendar info, alerts, etc., on my phone if I delete icloud? -
How do you delete duplicate songs from your iPhone that do not show up in your iTunes library?
everytime i purchase songs on itunes and sync them to my iphone 4, the songs downloads twice. one as the actual song, and the second one doesnt do anything. when you click on it, it just skips to the next song and doesnt play anything. also this second song has this cirlce dot thing next to it when i am scrolling through my songs in my music...so how do i get rid of this second download? its really annoying to have and it wont let me delete it off my phone. alsoooo since it doesnt show up in my itunes library, i cant delte it off there either! HELP PLEASE
On the springboard, locate the app you want to delete. For this example, I’ll use WeatherBug.
Tap and hold down the icon of the application you want to delete. After a few seconds your screen will start to “wiggle” and an X will appear next to each of the apps you’ve installed via the App Store.
Tap the X next to the icon of the app you want to remove. When prompted, selectDelete.
And now it’s gone.
If the application is listed in your iTunes Applications as well, you’ll want to remove it from there – or else it will re-install the next time you sync. Alternately you can keep the app in your iTunes Applications, and set iTunes not to sync all applications, just the ones you want to keep. See the Applications tab of your device the next time it’s connected in iTunes for syncing options.

How to delete an album from my iphone that is not showing on my PC iTunes?
an album and its songs are listed on my iphone iTunes but they are absent in my PC iTunes, so syncing does not remove that album. Any suggestions ?
DarwinobambinoHey darwinobambino,
It seems like you are asking about how to delete some an album on your iPhone. If this album is one that you have downloaded, then you can use the following article to help you delete it:
iCloud and iTunes Match - iPhone
http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphb8d9fd5a6
Remove a song that’s been downloaded. Swipe left, then tap Delete. The song is removed from iPhone, but remains available from iCloud.
View only music that’s downloaded. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Under Show All, turn off Music.
Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!

Hello. I just got the iPhone 5s today and I did a restore from icloud to it but none of my apps transferred. I checked on my computer and only Facebook and candy crush show up. How can I get them back?
Try restoring the backup again. Your apps and other purchased media should have been restored from your backup if they were on your old phone when you backed it up.

I have recently returned from a holiday in New Zealand and transited for 6 hours in China. Since returning to the UK my maps app on Iphone 5 will not show my surroundings in hybrid or satellite. I have also noticed that the data from section that usually displays data from TOM TOM and others now just says others. Has anyone encountered this before or know how to get the Satellite function on maps back?
Your phone is "stuck" in the Chinese version of maps. This also happened to me once I got back from China recently. I believe I solved the problem by logging out of iCloud and reloging in.
BTW the App Store app was also stuck in China. It only displayed Chinese characters and I had to log out and relogin.
Hope this helps. -
can you restore from a older\previous backup? My last restore point is today at 12:31 and I need to restore a backup done last week. Can i do this?
Hi Xkandrux
Do you mean if I go to edit-preference-device and delete all the recent backup except the older backup I want then it will appear when I select "Restore backup " ? -

My MacBook Pro was stolen last night. I need the serial number. It is not showing up on my devices list. My iPads and iPhones are. I have used it to to sync my phones and pads as well having it registered with apple. Any thoughts? Thanks
Click here: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
SIgn in with your Apple ID, the same one you used to access this support forum.
Hopefully, you will see a list of all the devices you registered with your Apple ID, including their serial numbers. Let me know how this works out.
Edit to add: If you enabled "find my imac" on your Pro, you ought to be able to remotely lock it, or even wipe its memory. Click http://www.icloud.com/ sign in with your Apple ID and click the big green "find my iPhone" icon (nevermind the name, it will find all your devices provided they're running Lion or iOS 5).
Then file a police report and nail the b*****d. -

I tried updating to iOS6 via itunes bc my storage space was pass limit and now my phone is telling me it's in recovery mode and I need to restore it. I didn't back it up. How do I take it out of recovery mode and keep the information on my phone?
You cannot. If it is in recovery mode, the data is already gone.
Did you fail to make sure everything was on your computer before updating? -
so i cant download itunes cuz of some patenting control on the computer and i needed to restore it . so went on icloud (find my phone,ipod etc) and restored it and my ipod is not turning on but ist is still buffering from the past 10 mins
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

How do I tell if my iPhone 4S is unlocked?
Yesterday I spoke with my carrier, Sprint, and they said they were sending the verification to Apple that my iPhone 4S should be unlocked. The man at Sprint said to wait 24 hours, then sync my iPhone 4S with iTunes and I'd be good to go. I've now s
