Data back up

I locked my iphone and want desperately to save/back up my data that is on the phone before resetting to factory settings. Please help any suggestions. To make matters worst. The computer that the phone is sync to is broken and the phone hasn't been backed up in months.

What do you mean you locked your iPhone?
You set the passcode lock and you can't remember the passcode?
If so, you have no choice but to restore your iPhone with iTunes and if the computer you were syncing your iPhone with but haven't done so in months is broken, you will have no choice but to restore the iPhone as a new iPhone on another computer - you won't be able to create a backup for your iPhone on the new or different computer before doing so.

TS3988 My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

If you can see the iCloud contacts in Outlook, you can copy them back to your PC by selecting all the contacts (click one, then press Control-A), then drag and drop the selected contacts to Contacts under My Contacts on the left sidebar of Outlook.
If you want to copy your calendar back to Outlook, select your iCloud calendar on the left sidebar of Outlook, switch to the list view (select View from the ribbon, then click Change View>List), select your events (click on a single event, then press Control-A), then control drag and drop them to Calendar under My Calendars on the left sidebar.
Then you can sign out of iCloud on the iCloud control panel and your local copies will still be there. If you want to add your iCloud email account back to iCloud, you can do this with these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.

If someone has wiped my ipad and changed passwords on icloud how do i get my data back

if someone has wiped my ipad and changed passwords on icloud how do i get my data back? please could someone help me out thanks

How did they wipe it? By using Find My iPad and performing a wipe? If so, that means they have your icloud ID and password, not a good thing.
You could try connecting it to iTunes and performing a restore from iCloud. But if they changed password, then you are out of the loop. How did they get your password in order to change it?

IOS 8 upgrade gone wrong - how do I get my data back?

I was upgrading my iPhone 5S to iOS 8 today using iTunes. Halfway through iTunes through an "unknown" error and recovered my phone back to the factory settings. I don't have any backups on either iTunes or iCloud (don't ask why).
I did a search for data recovery tools and it seems there are many out there that claim can get data back. Has anyone used any of these data recovery tools. Can they recover data in this situation?
I have lots of contacts, Messages and Notes which are gone forever if I can't recover them.
Many thanks.

If your phone is back to factory condition, there's nothing to recover.
I won't ask why you didn't make a backup before upgrading as you requested. Doesn't mean I'm not baffled.

I backed up my ipod. I then updated it but all of my data is still gone. How do I get my data back??

Were the app in your iTunes library? If not the app data in the backup has no place to go. Redownload the apps in your iTunes libaray
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
and then restore from backup.

Otherwise, try restoring from backup again.
If still problem that means the backup does not include the data.

Apple has a 90 warranty warranty on all of their repairs. You should take your computer back to the repair shop. Or call Apple Customer Relations (800) 767-2775. Wait for a human to come on the line and ask politely and firmly that you want to be transferred over to the Customer Relations department. Tell them your issue.

I deleted a calendar tab. How can I get the data back?

I accidently deleted the calendar tab of my wife and deleted all her apoointments on her iphone and the iMac. I am in ****. How can I get the calendar data back=?

Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer

As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

My battery died and then when i charged the phone it is asking me to connect to itunes and restore. if i restore how can i get my data back

My iphone battery died and on charging the phone it asked me to connect to itunes and restore the phone.
If i restore the phone how can i get my data back and how can i check when i last backed up my phone

If you have been syncing regularly as the iphone is designed, then you can sync the data back.
Regardless you will have to restore the iphone.

I've succesful login in old sync, but nothing synching,New Sync says unknown account on Login. How can i get my data back?

Actually I couldn't use internet for approx 1 year. I thought My every detail is safe on FF server Now. when I am trying to sync my details in old sync, in first few attempt it can't login, but eventually it successfully logs in. but nothing is synching. So tried the same thing in New Synch. but When I try to login with same details It says unknown account. So I thought making new account with same id would overwrite data with new one. so I didn't. If there is any way I can get my data back, atleast some of it. As its quite important.

It's "safe" when you use it as intended, for synchronizing Firefox data between multiple devices. Sync was not intended to be used as you tried to use it; as a backup medium or "cloud".

I lost my iPhone device, how can I get my data back on another one without using an iCloud backup just back up on i Tunes, Please Help.??

You can find the backup files and then copy them to a safe place if you are worrying about this.
iTunes places the backup files in these places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
The "~" represents your Home folder. If you don't see Library in your Home folder, hold Option and click the Go menu.
Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then press Return.
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, then choose Run. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then click OK.

How can I safe my data back from the Time capsule to iphone and macbook?

Hi,
last weekend we were robbed while being on vacation and iphones and macbook air got stolen. Good thing was that at home we had a time capsule and our normal macbook. As soon as we get the new iphones and the new airbook we want to get our itunes and apps and datas back to the iphones and airbook ... can somebody tell us how to re-safe or back-safe stuff from the time capsule back to the equipment?
Thank you ... I feel so "naked" without my phone :-(
Virtualkate

Sorry about your loss. Follow the directions here to use Time Capsule to restore your new Air to the state your old Air was in when stolen. When you first connect your new phones, you'll be given the option of restoring from the backup of your old phones or setting up as new. Restore from your previous backups, followed by syncing your content back to your phones. You should be good to go. Maintaining current backups makes this a piece of cake.

How can I get my data back?

I have a Macbook Pro running 10.8.5. I went to startup my computer tonight and got an osx utilities window. No desktop. I don't know how to restore my desktop or get my data back. I don't have a backup. Please help!
Thanks

Since you've a Retina machine, you have flash storage. If you can get to the Recovery partition (it sounds as if that's where you are? Nonetheless, you can boot into your Recovery partition by holding down the command and R keys whilst booting).
Use Disk Utility to verify and, if needed, repair your flash storage. If it can't be repaired, call back.

How do I transfer my data back to my iPod from icloud after my device was restored?

I had to restore my iPod because it got stuck in recovery mode. Now, I am trying to figure out how to get all of my data back on my iPod from my icloud backups.

Hi,
If you are using the iTunes command File>Transfer Purchases from iPod, only purchased music is transferred to iTunes from your iPod.
Hope this helps!

How can I get all my data back after erasing my iPad from find my iPhone?

What happened is that I have 2 iPads . So I deleted the two from "find my iPhone" so one already got deleted but the other one is still awaiting to get delete. What I want to know is that the one that is not deleted yet is using the same ID as the other one... So I have the one that got deleted and I had to put my ID again and all those stuffs and I wanted to get all my photos back but I couldn'. So the other one has the same ID but already did the backup therefore it's supossed to get all its inforMarion back with the ID but the other one has that ID so how can I get my data back and the one that already got deleted?

Howdy Axelbm01,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you want to know how to restore one iPad from the backup of another iPad. Take a look at the article linked below, it’ll walk you through the restore process which will prompt you to choose the backup that you would like to restore from.
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
Cheers,
