When I went to sync my iPhone, I accidently hit restore and it made my iPhone have all of the settings of my iPod Touch, erasing my iPhone pictures and contacts. Is there any way to get everything back?

Not to doubt you, but something sounds fishy. I can see accidentally clicking Restore, but to load your Touch's information you would have had to select your Touch's backup file after restoring, which would be hard to do by accident -- unless your iPhone and Touch have the same name?
In any case, your iPhone should have its own backup file on your computer. You can click Restore again and this time select the iPhone's backup file (there should be a device name and date associated with the pop-up window at the end of the restore process). This process will erase your iPhone, reload the OS, and then when you select your backup file then all your iPhone settings, data, sync options, etc. will be re-loaded, including your media (if you auto-sync ... if you manually manage music and video on the iPhone then you'll need to re-select the items you want loaded onto it).

If the photos were not backed up with a recent backup, there is NO way to retrieve them.

I deleted a contact,is there any way of getting it back? Thank you.

I deleted a contact and need it back,does anyone know how I can get it back. I'm on iPhone 4 using ios6. Thanks a lot for any answers and tips.

If the contact is no longer on icloud.com you would have to try restoring your contacts from your backup, as explained here: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.

No. When you restored the backup of the old computer it wiped out everything on the phone.

Also, is there any way to save a group or an open session and then restore it later?

History menu, if it was destroyed in the last session
then use "Restore Previous session:" and then restore all windows also from the history menu.
If done in this session try the restore all windows under the history menu.

I deleted contents from pages school report by accident. is there any way to get it back. I reopened the file and it is blank, I deleted the contents from a school report by accident. is there any way to get it back. I reopened the file and it is blank

I opened a file to print and by accident highlighted and deleted the content. Then in a panic I closed the file and now when I open it is blank. Is there any way to get it back. I have looked and can not see anyway. I dont have anything in my backup?

I'm not sure about older versions, but in Pages 3.x (OS X 10.9.x) select File > Revert To > Browse All Versions. Hopefully there will be an earlier version that you can "revert to".

Sorry no as you wipe the current data when you restore from your backup.

If the backup is corrupt, there is nothing that can be done.
For what reason did you choose to not copy the pictures off the device to a computer prior to attemping an update or whatever caused the need to restore? iPhones are not intended as sole storage of any media.

You restored your iPhone with iTunes from the backup for your iPod Touch?
If so, photos/videos that were in your iPhone's Camera Roll should have been imported by your computer before doing this. You could then transfer these photos/videos back to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process.

That doesn't sound like a wise thing to have done.
At this point having lost your software purchase, the quickest way will be to purchase and install it from the Mac App Store. It is not expensive and can then be installed on multiple Macs using the same Apple I.D.

I have an iPod whose contents I want to transfer to a newer Ipod. At some stage I lost the music files from my library. Is there any way to get them back from the older iPod and put them onto the newer one again? I stupidly synced the wrong one.

Have you not got a backup of your content on, for example, external drives ? If not then you could have a look to see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work : https://discussions.apple.com/message/11014893?messageID=11014893#11014893

If you did not backup your iPad, your photos are gone forever.
