Backed up my photos and have lost them
Ok so bit of a complicated one, i have got an iphone 4s and itunes on a mac
Ok so came back off honeymoon about 6 weeks ago and proceeded to update my Apple account with my new surname (double-barrel) and edited email address, as far as I remember something popped up on my phone straight after confirming a change had been made which i 'ok'd it or something similar.
Whilst trying to understand the issue of the title of this topic I have noticed that my iphone is still set with my old name/email address on the iphone (icloud) and itunes (on the phone), so I signed out of both and logged in with my new credentials created about 6 weeks ago.
Now for the issue, me and the wife wanted to add our wedding snaps which came on disc from the photographer, which were copied onto the hdd of the mac and we wanted to copy them onto our iphones, so proceeded to plug them in and we could not sync either one of them (important to note wife's login credentials haven't been updated with her name change and as far as i'm aware itunes on the mac is under my old email address (didnt think of it at the time if indeed it is under my old one).
For love nor money could we get them to sync, I proceeded to back up both phones with our current photos taken on the photo roll to icloud just incase, we then updated both phones with the new ios update hoping that may fix it, but it hasn't, and for some reason now the original photos from over 3 years worth have disappeared on both phones and I cant find a way to get them back.
Sorry for the confusing post, but at a lost end, surely a back up is that, that if you need to 'get back' items you can do so easily, which i cant seem to do
Kind Regards,

You can't, unless you have the photos synced them with your computer on iPhoto/iTunes.

I Have an ipad 2. I have never back up my photos ever since setting it up or ever since I bought it. Wiith all the previous upgrades that I have I never lost any photos and videos taken from the ipad itself. Now I upgraded to the new IOS 8 and all my photos and videos are all gone. Is there a way to retrieve the lost photos and videos?
Did you have I cloud that automatically back up you data to iCloud backup happens when you charge your iPad Have a look in Settings iCloud backup If you do then all your photos will be safe When you have iCloud if you buy a new iPhone / iPad And you use the same Apple ID all your Apps & photos will download to your new Device Cheers Brian

HT1766 I have restored my iphone instead of backing it up and have lost lots of photos, please help?
Hi,
I have connected my phone to itunes and restored it instead of backing it up. I have lost about a years worth of photos.
My apps and notes are still there though.
please can anyone help me to recover my lost photos?
ThanksHey
To answer your question, a restore deletes everything of your iphone/ipod/ipad. Unless you have your photos on your comupter or a memory stick then sorry but you have lost them. Make sure that you back up ur iphone in the future regularly so that you dont lose ur stuff.
Hope it helps Peter -
Hello. My iphone 4 got stuck on the itunes logo. I had to restore it and have lost everything. Is there anything I can do to get my photos back?
Not easily, the recovery mode erases the device, but you can see if any of these data recovery tools may work: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1689

I upgraded to IOS5 and have lost my contacts and other app profiles - is there any way to get them back from the backup taken before the IOS5 process started?
Thanks but have tried that - When I try to restore I get a -50 error and into a loop of taking another back up. I took a copy of the back up before the IOS upgrade and have it stored on my desk top but I cannot get Itunes to restore to that back up
Any ideas how I can do this? -
I have installed the new OS and have lost a part of my personal data: music files and pictures. The new safari is horrible. Give me back the previous version! Or fix the bugs!

What bugs ? Have you not got your music, files, photos on your computer so that you can sync them back to the iPad ? -
I'm running iPhoto '08 on an eMac G4 using OS 10.5.8 and have lost my photo library. Any ideas as to how to find it and /or rebuild it? I know it is there on my disk.
However, in pictures there seems to be a complete set of my photos(?).
I'm don't understand what you're saying here.
In the iphoto window I somehow managed to open a type of "photo library" that includes every photo I've every downloaded on my computer in multiple and entirely random order.
This can happen if someone inadvertently drags the HD icon or even the home folder icon to iPhoto Window. The best soluion for that is to restore from your back up.

I was updating my software on my iphone 4 and it crashed so it recovered it and i restored it from its back up. However I have lost all my music and my apps but not my pictures. How can i get my music back. I did not remove my phone from the computer until it had said it had finsihed.
Media and apps are not part of the backup. They need to be re-synced from your itunes library or re-downloaded from the store.

Can I back up the organizer, move my photos and still access them in PSE?
I backed up my catalog to an external HD last night and there were about 20 disconnected files. I was not able to locate them so I allowed the back up to continue without them. Do you know what the consequences are for that?
Also, several of my photos are on my C drive and several are on the external HD. My catalog included photos from both places. When I move the rest of my photos from the C drive of my computer to the external HD will the catalog still be able to access them or will I need to back everything up again?
My goal is to free up space on my computer so PSE will stop freezing up. All I'm intersted in doing right now is getting all of my photos into the organizer and tagged. I'll edit them later as I begin to create digital scrapbook pages.
Can someone tell me if the way I'm going about this is correct?
Thank you,Thank you Ken. I backed up everything to my external HD, but now I think I'd rather just move everything there and recall my photos from the ext HD to free up space on my C drive. Is that possible?

When you use PSE to back up your catalog, the actual photos as well as the catalog (database) are backed up. When you restore from a backup, you can specify where the incoming photos will be placed. Ken

I presume that you mean that the switches do not light up as appropriate when you select a Patch in MS?
If so, in Layout Mode, select each of the buttons in turn, and check that they are a) Assigned to the correct MIDI CC number etc, and b) that "Send Value to" has the correct Port selected.

I have upgraded iphone ios 3.1 to ios 5.1 and have lost all my contacts and can not find them on my pc. Can anyone pleeeeese help me?
If you are saying that you both have iCloud accounts and use the same icloud ID, then yes, the contacts will be deleted. The idea is that all devices using the same icloud ID are kept in sync. You need to use different IDs. You can keep the same iTunes ID so you can share the songs and apps. But use different icloud IDs.

I upgraded to v3.6.22 today and have lost the ability to ctrl-click a link to open the link in a new tab; how do I get this back?
Strangely enough, putting my laptop into Hibernate mode solved the problem. It didn't even take a reboot.

i backed up my ipod and i lost all my music. And its not letting me put my music back on my iPod and i also tried to buy a song from iTunes but it didn't download to my IPod. So now i dont have any music on my ipod now
What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Does iTunes see the iPod?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

i have just updated to the latest ios 5 and have lost apps and their data, can i reverse the new update to get back what i had on my ipad?
There is no need to do that, I had the same problem pal! Just do this and all should be fine!
Delete one of the app's and re-install it, then for some reason everythign is restored to as it was!
Hope you get on fine, let me know!
Thanks
