After system restore to back up have lost texts, photos and app data

Speakers not working on iphone all of a sudden and volume switches not working (just the volume comes up but no bars at the bottom).  So did system restore and more problems.
After I did this restore (to my backup done today) to my iphone 4s, I now have no text messages on my phone, no photos and no data on my nike running app (6months of records of runs).  Have searched through these forums and still stuck.
I think I'm going to have to take my iphone somewhere for the speaker issue, but have no idea where as optus sent it out to me directly via mai l(Adelaide, Australia).  
In the meantime, I really want my texts, photos and app data back on my phone.
any help HUGELY appreciated..

thanks for your reply.  I am trying the restore again now.
But no, I still have no sound, so it was all for naught.  Its fine if I have headphones in, and fine if its in a dock or connected to bluetooth, the phone also rings and I can hear people on the phone:  the only sound that doesnt work is music playing through the speaker, and video.  Also when I press the volume up and down buttons, nothing works.  I suspect there is something wrong with the docking connection as far as I can see from other peoples questions on here.
But the loss of texts and app data is just the icing on the cake

  • I have updated my iPhone 3s to the latest software. I had backed up my phone before I did this. Now I have lost my music and apps. I can't sync the phone with my Mac, I can't re-download as the phone says I don't have any music or apps available. Help!

    I have updated my iPhone 3Gs to the latest software in an attempt to iron out a problem with a new telephone network provider (Tmobile). I had backed up my phone before I did this. Now I have lost my music and apps. I can't sync the phone with my Mac, I can't re-download from iTunes as the phone says I don't have any music or apps available to re-download although it all shows up on my Mac. The music and app content cannot be restored when I try to restore the phone from the back up I madeon my Mac. Help!

    Working on that now.  I'm just getting frustrated that everytime I run updates for the phone I end up with tech problems that I have to spend time solving as opposed to updates that actually improve my usage.  Now I will once again get to spend hours reloading my phone all for updates that didn't affect my usage in the first place.

    Set up as New now, or set up from iCloud back up if you have this. Then you can Restore from Back Up on iTunes at a later time.

  • I tried to sync my iPhone with iTunes, was asked if i wanted to use old phone or new.  I pressed old and lost  recent photos and apps.  what can i do to undo this mess

    An update was requested in my iphone settings to sync my iphone with itunes.  In my attempt to do this, I chose to sync with my old phone and lost all recent photos and apps.  Is there any way to reverse this mess and retrieve what I had?

    So, what i need to is
    1. Check my iphone backup first if avaiable
    2. Do ' restore ' my iphone at itunes
    Is it correct?
    After i do all of this, what is the next step? Is it
    1. Just plug in back my iphone and itunes will automatically sync asking to use a backup ipnone?
    Or need to do manually?
    Make me confuse is, if i do all the step as previous mention, but pc still recognize my iphone as a ipod everytime i plug in into itunes.
    How if i in pc dont have my iphone backup ? Because since first time plug in into itunes, i was used the ipod backup?
    Sorry to ask too much since i really need help from your guys

  • Synched Ipod lost all photos and apps.

    I synced my ipod to my computer for the first time. I downloaded itunes on my computer. I connected my ipod and was told to download latest software for ipod. After downloading, I got message that download failed. Had to unplug and reconnect ipod to computer. Set up as new connection and new ipod name. All photos and apps are gone. Where did the apps and photos get downloaded to?? How do I get back to original ipod name I had before I unplugged and re-plugged in and gave new name. Apps and photo's no where to be found in Itunes on my computer.

    You should have backed up to iCloud and restore backup after the sync or update.

  • Tried to transfer all my data to iPhone 5 from iPhone 3GS lost my email and app data?  Do you why and how I can fix this?

    Hi...
    Tried to transfer all my data to iPhone 5 from iPhone 3GS lost ONLY my email and app data?  But weird thing is, its still on my old phone!!!
    Do you know why and how I can fix this? 
    Shelley

    How did you "try" to transfer this data? The only way to restore App data is by restoring from a backup that contains the App data, then syncing the Apps back to the phone. Emails are not included in any iPhone backup, only account settings.

  • Metro fails completely after system restore - can no longer access either Metro or Metro Apps

    Following a system restore, Metro no longer works - The windows button on the keyboard does nothing and clicking the start icon doesn't do anything either. Attempting to start Metro Apps results in failure - they cannot display on the screen and I see the
    outline flash up briefly, then the app crashes. All non-metro programs work fine and aside from Metro, there are no problems.
    How can I re-install Metro or solve the issue? This seems a pretty major failure in the preview - If Metro fails it causes major disruption - kind of like it used to be when explorer.exe failed. No menus, no access to system functions - updates etc. 
    Any suggestions? How can I re-install ( or fix ) Metro without having to scrap the entire OS and rebuild from scratch?
    I thought the store beta not working was a major problem, but it's nothing compared to this. 
    Rolling back the system restore, or choosing another restore point does not correct the problem - 
    Thanks

  • After system restore firefox wont open is crtashing i uninstalled and reinstalled no help

    it trys to open and the crash reporter comes up. i restored to a date when it was working. i had a virus attack that was removed

    It is always better to do a reinstall of Firefox after doing a system restore. The result of a system restore can be unpredictable and may cause some files to get replaced by older versions. That can also happen with files in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]. Files with the file extension .ini and .js are the most obvious candidates.
    Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]<br />
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.

  • I have lost my photos and music!!!!

    Hi, I recently updated my iphone 3 to the latest soft wear. I moved my I tunes account from my Microsoft computer and put it onto my boyfriends apple mac pro. When the phone had been updated and I cloud activated and set up it appears that I have lost all my photos and music. I have however found some selected photos in my yahoo email account in a smart folder. I can only access this from my phone not the computer. My boyfriend has his own iTunes account on his computer and also has I cloud. When I look under settings at the I cloud section it accepts my iTunes pass word but when I go back to it there are more dots ( indicating the letters in the pass word) than are in my pass word. There are however the same amount as are in my boyfriends password so it seems to be changing it. We have searched everywhere for the pics and photos and videos. There are over 3000 photos and 15 days worth of music. I hope some one can help me. Fingers crossed. :)

    Also restore from the backup of your iPod with all your synced media like apps and music are in the iTunes library backup since synced media is not included in the iPod backup that iTunes makes.

  • Lost all photos and apps on update

    I have a 3GS and have just done the ISO5 update and have now lost all my photos and applications.  Prior to doing the update I backed up but during the update the phone synched again to the new settings, extremely upset.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Yes, try all possible to get any backup if you did, such as Google address books, iTunes backup files, or iCloud backup.
    If you really don't have any backup, don't worry, you can use some third-party iPhone data recovery software to get your photos, messages and contacts back!

  • Updated and back uped phone last night and now have lost all photos and aps.  What happened

    backed up phone last night and lost all aps, contacts, and photos.  What happened

    The phone was not restored from the backup.
    Frankly, unless the user actually copies the pictures off the device to the computer, there is no guarantee they will return.  They should return when restored from backup, but it's not a risk that most intelligent people are willing to take if the photos are considered valuable.
    Apps may not be syncing due to the "Sync Apps" option being deselected.

  • I got  iphone5 two days ago and had taken some lovely photos. Tonight i tried to sync my ph to get my old contacts and have ended up with all  my old contacts and apps and have lost my photos from today. I also have lost the iphone5 apps. Can i get back?

    I got the Iphone5 a couple of days ago. Today i tooks some lovely photos and tonight i went through itunes to sync my phone and get my old contacts. In the process i have lost todays photos and the original iphone5 apps. Can i get them  back?

    Hi. The two user tips both describe a sequence of steps that should get your library from the point where it threatens to wipe data from your device to where it is syncing normally, while recovering as much information as possible. It may still be necessary to wipe and reload the device but this should only take place once all the data that can be recovered has been recovered.
    Doing step 1 of 8 and then complaining things aren't the way you want them to be yet strikes me as premature...
    Since you appear to have all your media content, and we are discussing an iPod classic, not an iOS device, the main worries are already taken care of. What's left is ratings, playcounts, playlist membership and checked status. Since your device holds only part of your library at best you could only recover the missing data for the content that is on the device using third party tools.
    Recreating the previous checked/unchecked status of every track in your library from where you are now may not be that easy. Syncing with selected playlists has many advantages, one of which would have been that you would have a named playlist that could have been retrieved by 3rd party software if you had used this method.
    You haven't explained what caused your problem in the first place, but if you have a Previous iTunes Libraries folder holding old copies of your iTunes database (generated with each iTunes update) then it would be possible to restore the most recent of these and then update the library with any changes in your media folder.
    BTW Apple doesn't offer free support for this kind of issue with iTunes.
