Can I retrieve data from my iPhone 4 hard drive without the SIM card?

Can I retreive data from my iPhone 4 hard drive without the sim?

There is no hard drive in an iPhone, it is all solid state memory. If the phone is working you can always copy content from it. If it is not you will need to restore and activate it, and that requires a SIM card.

  • How do I retrieve data from my broken macbook hard drive?

    My macbook suddenly crashed and I had to do a forced shutdown. When I tried to turn it back in, a folder with a question mark kept flashing and by computer did not start. I looked up what might have been the cause of this, and I found out it was my hard drive or the cable that connects the drive to the mac. But I brought it to my school since they have tech support and they said that my hard drive is pretty much dead, but it can still be possible to retrieve the data from. I really need help because I need to hand in my Extended essay in about one week and I already had done quite a lot for my essay. Please tell me how to get all my data back, or past it to a new hard drive.

    No no, I backed up my computer about 1 month ago but I never thought anything will happen. My mac never crashed before and I just was not expecting anything bad to happen to it, but I agree it was stupid of me to not back it up in daily bases. But thanks a lot for letting me know that I can retrieve my data.

  • Help me move my photos from Aperture to external hard drive without the program

    I'm having problems with Aperature.  I need/want to get rid of it.   I need to move my photos out of it ASAP using Finder.  I can't locate the photos in Finder.  The instructions i see online don't work.
    Help!

    The first step is wrong "1 I click on Aperture.app"
    Don't click the Aperture application -  that is the program. You need to click the Aperture library, the database with your photos.
    By default your Aperture library will be in the folder "Pictures" and named "Aperture Library.aplibrary". It will show an icon like a fan of pictures. The color of the icon will depend on the version.

  • When I was talking on phone, suddenly the phone was switched off. i tried to switch it on but it gave the message....connect to itunes for set up.  when I connected it to itunes...it gave the message, itunes can not read data from this iphone, restore it

    when I was talking on phone, suddenly the phone was switched off.
    i tried to switch it on but it gave the message....connect to itunes for set up.
    when I connected it to itunes...it gave the message, itunes can not read data from this iphone, restore it to factory settings. It also said while restoring ypu will lose all media data but you can restore the contacts.
    I restored the factory settings....the phone was on recovery mode...it was verified by itunes and all that..but in the end it again said that iphone has some problem and can not function right now.
    after that when ever i connect it with itunes, it gives the message, it can not activate the iphone further, try again later or contact customer service.
    What to do now?????? Customer service people say..it is hardware problem

    If it's a hardware problem, then the phone will need to be replaced.
    There is no magic that can fix a hardware problem.

  • ITunes is telling me it can't sync data from my iPhone or iPad at the moment. Any ideas why, please?

    IiTunes is telling me it can't sync data from my iPhone or iPad at the moment. Any ideas why, please?

    Your iPhone's iOS must be same or newer than the one in backups. In your case it is older so you need to update your iPhone and then recover it with backup.

  • Can I retrieve files from a modern Mac Backup drive to a PPC Mac?

    Can I retrieve files from a modern Mac Backup drive to a PPC Mac?  I have been having problems with my Macbook Pro not starting up.  I need to figure out how to access files with my PPC Desktop; if possible. 
    What type of files can I access and what type I cannot?
    My Macbook Pro: MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3), 750GB HD, 2.2 GHz, 6 GB RAM
    My PPC: Power mac G4/Upgraded 1.2GHZ /800+RAM/3 HD =400+ GB, Mac OS X (10.4.2)
    Thanks in advance,
    God bless 

    You will need software that is compatible with the data files on the backup drive, ie. if they are .doc files you will need Word (or a substitute).
    You don't mention what type of files are on the drive so it is hard to be specific.

  • How can I transfer photos from my iphone to my computer without emailing each one to myself

    how can I transfer photos from my iphone to my computer without emailing each one to myself, and I thought they would be in icloud but I can't find them

    Pics taken with the iphone are imported to your computer as with any other digital camera ( as explained in the manual).
    Pics synced to your iphone from your computer should still be on the computer.

    Can I use my iPad with airport extreme to retrieve files from a USB connected hard drive?

    Yes, I believe so. Please check out the NetPortal app. I don't have an iPad, but I use it on my iPod Touch to access files on my Time Capsule. It is available from the iTunes App Store.

  • Recovering data from a newly formatted hard drive

    Has anyone had any experience with programs that recover data from a newly formatted hard drive?  There seem to be a lot of programs out there to do this, but, a) do they work, and b) which one worked best for you? 

    Ive had so and so success with a freeware utility called "Recuva"
    http://www.recuva.com/
    Its from the makers of CCleaner.

  • How do I transfer all data from my old internal hard drive to a new internal hard drive

    How do I transfer all data from my old internal hard drive to a new internal hard drive? I have an iMac with a 320gb internal HD that is full and I am replacing it with a 2tb internal drive. I have several external drives; 1 tb, 2tb and 3 tb. The 2 tb is being used for Time Machine. Do I have to buy an enclosure? If so, where would I get an inexpensive one?
    I also want to partition the new internal drive for Windows, and I'm not sure how much space to use for that. I plan to use Windows to check my work in PowerPoint created on my Mac for clients on PCs.

    Do you already have Time Machine making backups onto the 2TB drive? If so, after you get the internal drive replaced, boot up into the recovery partition (hold down ⌘R) and restore the latest Time Machine backup that you have onto the new internal drive.
    I recommend always having two backups. I'd use SuperDuper to make a complete clone of your internal drive onto an external drive in addition to having the Time Machine backup.
    Boot Camp is what is used to make partitions for Windows. How much space to allocate depends on how much space you expect Windows to use up based on how you plan to use it.

  • How can i activate iphone 4 on ios6 without a sim card?

    how can i activate iphone 4 on ios6 without a sim card?i upgraded mu iphone to ios but the iphone is factory locked so i can not activate it with a sim card because i dont have the original sim card.is another way to do it?

    You cannot do anything without a sim for the carrier the iPhone is locked to.  With that you can attempt to restore using the recovery mode described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 but note that if the previous owner installed an Apple ID and password and turned on Settings > iCloud > Find My Phone, you will never get it to work without the Apple ID and password.  That is the Activation Lock, an anti-theft protection system.

  • Can i reset my iphone without the sim card burning ?

    can i reset my iphone without the sim card burning ?

    Why would your sim card be burning?. If anything is burning it is safe just not to use the device at all and take it into an Apple Store to be evaluated.

  • Is there any way to connect an iPhone to an external hard drive without the use of a computer?

    Hello All,
    I am planning to travel to Central America, and I want to take pictures with my iPhone. I only have 8 GB memory, so I wanted to take my 1 TB WD Mac External Hard Drive with me on the trip. Is there any way I can connect my iPhone directly to the external hard drive, without the use of a computer? Thanks in advance!

    The external hard drive has only one input port which is usb, so you can only use usb here. Also try considering online storage.

  • Is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ?

    is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ? because i dont have that much memory and i wanted my external hard drive to be the source for my music files and not my computer.

    Many users keep their iTunes libraries on external drives. You just have to remember to connect and power up the drive before launching iTunes.
