E72 Hard Reset - unable to restore backup

Due to some trouble with the camera getting the focus right, and general low performance of my e72, i had to perform a hard reset on the device (german fw v. 53.x.1).
I made 3 backups of all date via Ovi Suite 3.1 before. After the reset, the device runs fine again but I am unable to restore all data. In fact,
- Messages (SMS)
- phone settings
- applications
- calendar/notes (which is synced by outlook, so not a problem)
are missing! When I only restore the messages, I receive an error from OVI. It runs fine with Nokia PC Suite Content Copier (it says 100%), but the messages are still not restored.
In Content Copier, I don't even see a check box for applications and phone settings! Has it been disabled for e72 devices?
I have done the procedure on an old e71 and n82 befor and it just ran very well, everything was restored. Why does the e72 make such trouble? Is there a possibility to recover things another way out of the *.nbu file??

Okay, this Prog helps-a-lot:
http://techie-buzz.com/mobile-news/browse-nbu-files-with-nokia-backup-explorer.html
there are no settings / programs saved in the e72's backups - WHY??
at least I'm able to recover the messages.

Unable to restore backup after updating iphone 4, because "not enough free space"

I updated my iphone 4 to v7 via itunes (v12), and in doing so, my camera roll was erased as were most of my calendar events. I am trying to restore the backup that I created just before updating, but I get an error message in itunes that says "itunes could not restore the iphone" because "not enough free space". There is 2.5gb free on my iphone, and I created the backup just before updating so there should be plenty of room. Does anyone know how to get the iphone to restore and/or how to put my pics & calendar back? itunes hangs up at the end while syncing too...

hello again, don't post twice the same question, it won't be answered faster.
see your previous thread: iphone 4 unable to restore backup after updating to v7

Screen zoomed can't undo with hard reset or full restore!

I was playing with a particle App and the screen zoomed. It zoomed back but then zoomed again and froze - I tried resets, hard resets, and finally full restore (iOS 4.1) and it still starts up looking normal then suddenly without touching the phone, the screen zooms and you cannot pan.
Is this a hardware failure of some kind? Has anyone experienced this before?

TAP 2 times with 3 fingers !!!
Hope it helps
These useless 'quick buttons' are VERY annoying (2 unitended taps with 3 fingers or 3 unintended clicks with the home button etc.)
Maybe we have people around us that know these tricks, and play games with us, but ....I already restored my phone twice for a perceived VIRUS.
1st time all remained in photo negative (press home button 3 x which I did not know). Lost all my data and the iPhone remaind in negative until someone gave me the 'code' to resolve this. (Really looks like something is wroing: who would want 'negative' as a homebutton feature...?
Then this 'unresolvable' zoom occured today which made me sick and restore. Until I read this forum.
Apple used to be the ultimate 'user friendly' 'foolproof' company, and we all might be fools, but who the **** would want to have a MEGA zoom feature that disallows any operation of your phone and remains even after a restart?!
APPLE:
PLEASE TAKE THESE 'SHORTCUT ACTIVATION' FEATURES OUT of the primary interface
and make many unintended users happy!!
And if they need to be there, put them in the 'settings' menu, because just look at the Forums and draw your own conclusions !!

Iphone 3G 8GB resets when syncing, unable to restore/backup

ive recently updated to OS 3.1.3 and ever since am unable to sync my phone to my pc, im on windows 7 havent had a problem until i updated iphon software. does anyone have any suggestions?! am unable to use my phone and getting pretty desperate !
thanks

I don't have an iphone, but if it's anything like my click-wheel ipod, a reset doesn't delete anything.
It just resets the ipod's operating system, kind of like a PC restart. Did you try this Sleep/Wake button thing mentioned here?

Maybe it's a podcast of voice memo causing the problem like it did for this person
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10907809#10907809
That's all I got. You might have better luck on an iPhone forum. Everyone there would probably have one. Like I said, I don't.

Unable To Restore backup after updating to OS 10.3.1.1565

Hi there...
i just updated my Q5 to os 10.3.1.1565
(Had an error with memory when trying to do OTA update , so i did a full backup on device via link , Factory Reset , then updated it )
Then i tried to do a full restore , but it wont restore it
saying:
"Restore was canceled"
"The Operation was canceled, and some items were not restored."
is there anyway to restore the backup without reverting to an older os ?
Really could use some help or info's ...
much thanks in advance

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Refer:
Article ID: KB36134 BlackBerry Link fails when attempting to restore a backup file and displays "Restore was cancelled. The operation was cancelled and some items were not restored.
However, given your description, I suspect something else. It has been reported from time to time that if you update too far in the OS versions that the restore will fail. Usually, though, this is in downgrading the OS...not updating...but it has happened (as per reports here) more than once in the way you describe.
Sadly, the "fix" depends on your situation. If you have all of your contacts, calendar, etc. on a compatible email server (e.g., Outlook.com), then simply reintegrate that account and the data will come back from the server. Or, if you were using LINK to synchronize to desktop Outlook then simply re-establish that. But, if you were taking the most risky method of using these on the device truly "stand alone", then your recovery is much more difficult. Plus, if you had other data (photos, videos, documents, etc.) that you were storing in Device Memory instead of on the SD card, then you may have to also do this.
If indeed you need to do the most challenging method, then it is thus:
Load your prior OS to your device...either via LINK (if it offers it) or via AutoLoader
Restore your data to your device
Purchase, install, and use Ultimate Backup to backup your calendar, contacts, etc. to your SD card
If you also have data in Device Memory (photos, etc.), then copy those as well to the SD card
Load the more recent OS to your device
Restore via Ultimate Backup from your SD card, as well as continue to store your photos and such there (to avoid this problem in the future regarding photos, documents, etc.)
Good luck!

Machine A - Time Machine Backup - Unable to restore Backup from Machine B

Hello,
My Workstation A has a time machine backup.
My workstation A bit the dust (24in new flatscreen)
I was able to borrow a laptop from a family member and have created another account.
From this user account I am able to ENTER time machine, SELECT the backup on the external hard drive.
My problem is when I try and select the files I need to restore in order to be able to continue my work, that I am getting an error message that says "insufficient access privileges"
How do I access my time machine backups made from my original workstation from a replacement machine ?
Thank you for your feedback.

I have 2 user ids on the laptop. Each userid is an admin account. The suggestion was enough for me to log in as the other user and try to access my backup data. I was able to access my TM backup data from one admin userid, but not from the other.
My goal was to get to my backup data. Once I was able to do this (one admin or another admin, it did not matter)...There is still the problem of why one of the admin's could access the time machine data and the other one could not.
Thanks for your suggestion. It helped me get to the data I needed.

Unable to restore backup, Unable to restore backup

With each restore I get message that it is defective.

I am using a windows server 2008R2 disk to boot up. Both the servers have windows server 2008R2 on them. I have two licenses for each of the servers. I want to use the server at home as a backup server in case the server in office goes down. I used
windows server backup to backup the server at work to a portable USB hard drive. I bought the hard drive home and want to clone the server at work. I heard bare metal restore is the best way to do this. So I booted the server at home with the windows server
2008 r2 disk that I have and clicked repair. I had attached my seagate portable drive to the usb port so that the server could find the image of the server at work, however the server cant find the hard drive or the server image. Is it a problem with my usb
hard drive? Do I need a specific type of usb hard drive to do server image backups?
If I let my server at home boot regularly and it comes up, it can see the image on the hard drive so I dont know how to do the bare metal restore. I know it can be done becuase my IT guy did it when he set up both the servers. I just want to periodically
clone them so make sure the server at home is updated with the settings of the server at work.
Thanks for any help here

Unable to restore backup

Why does simple thing like backup and restore doesn't work correctly using OVI Suite v2.1.1.1 on 5800XM v50.0.005?
for detail please view: /t5/Nseries-Devices-and-S60/5800XM-Restore-Question/m-p/673160
Does your company want your customers manually enter everything into the phone instead of using backup(but text message can't entered), it yes please put the notice in a place that customers are able to view it before updating their device or PC Suite?

I took back from Ovi Suite on Day1 and on Day3 I mistakenly tried to restore with content copier but it did not restored. Later Day3 i retried to restore with Ovi Suite and it does not with it also.
Please help me out. I am using E63.

My iPhone 5 is charging but wont turn on even with the hard reset and restore. Keeps showing low battery. HELP PLEASE

My iPhone 5 shows it's charging but wont turn on even with the hard reset and restore. Just keeps showing low battery. HELP PLEASE
I usually sleep with my phone on charge through the night and I haven't had any problem since, I left my iphone 5 charging last night and in the morning it stated 100% charged so I decided to turn the power off normally (Hold the hold button till it says slide to turn power off) I turned it off and suddenly my iphone went straight to low battery. Although I have been having weird battery percentage changes for example it would stay on 1 % for an hour or so or drain really quickly.
I have restored it as i thought was the thing to do all it's doing it restoring and still stating low battery and I have charged it for hours +. I can't hard reset it nor restore it NEED HELP PLEASE.
Most Apprieciated.

Nokia E7-00 system error after hard reset

Hi Guys I did a hard reset on my phone today as my phone would freeze at times but it seems that it has given me new problems
Firstly, Everytime I restart the phone, the system error message comes up on the homescreen, I would click ok but it comes up 3 or 4 more times
Secondly, I cannot access my contacts at all, whether I try accessing it from the menu or from a shortcut I have on the homescreen.
I have tried to solve this myself...
I have re-installed the phone software after doing the hard reset,
I have restored my phone from the backup I did,
and I have rebooted the phone a few times but I still get the same thing
The software is Symbian Anna, I understand that there is a Belle update but it is not yet available for the phone that is on the network that I am on (which is network Three)
I have had this phone since september 2011 and it is under warranty. This is the first time I have encountered a problem.
Other than that, everything else works fine; I can install apps and make calls and use the internet etc. I just want to get rid of the system error message, and have access to contacts without having to send the phone off for repair!

The issue could also be caused by the restore ? I never do a full backup and restore when doing a reset as the restore may apply settings/data that caused an issue. My advice would be to backup Calendar, Contacts and Notes ONLY. Dial*#7370# followed by 12345, if required, then re-install the latest firmware using Nokia Suite. After this restore your contacts etc, then set up the phone manually, hopefully this would resove any issues, bit of a pain, but should work !!
Good Luck

Errors trying to restore backup

I had to reset my iphone 5 as it was in a reboot loop. Ever since, I have been unable to restore backup as it says "Itunes has been unable to restore this Iphone because an error occurred"
iOS8.3 on phone and Itunes also up to date. Have tried different cables & USB sockets, as well as reinstalling Itunes. Have tried everything in terms of locating and moving backup files and I am currently trying to move them onto a different laptop. Currently on Windows 8, moving onto a Windows 7. Checked firewall etc, to ensure it is not preventing restore.
I have lost all contacts etc and really need to get it all back. I think the issue may be with the laptop harddrive. Is there any way I can wirelessly restore?
Please someone help!

Hi sweenyness,
Based on the information you have provided, it appears your iPhone cannot be restored. The following article provides troubleshooting steps you may want to explore:
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Use recovery mode
You might need to use recovery mode to restore your device in these cases:
iTunes doesn't recognize your device or says it's in recovery mode.
You see the Apple logo onscreen for several minutes with no progress bar.
You see the Connect to iTunes screen.
Learn what to do if you see the progress bar onscreen for several minutes.
To put your device into recovery mode, follow these steps:
Turn off your device and leave it off.
Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes.
Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
When you see this screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 again.
When your device is connected, iTunes will open. You'll see a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore your device. Restoring in recovery mode will erase your device. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you might be able to restore from your backup.
Get more help
Learn what to do if you don't see your device in iTunes for OS X, or in iTunes for Windows.
If you put your device into recovery mode by mistake, restart it. Or you can wait 15 minutes and your device will exit recovery mode by itself.
After you perform the restore using Recovery mode, you can attempt to restore the backup you created previously.

Ipad keeps freezing .... Even after hard reset . . . Reset back to factory . . Etc. is it dead?

Ipad keep freezing up ?? Even after all the resets . . Etc. am I toast ?

"so I did a hard reset, tried to restore it. But not I cannot not even open my iPad"
Just to reiterate what Tedfixit said - I would book an appointment at the Genius Bar as well. If you restored it and it is still acting up, the device should be evaluated.

IPad is acting very strange, also after hard reset. No sliding to open possible.

It all started with my iPad doing things on its own, opening and closing apps, starting music, skipping songs and opening photo's. All without me push any buttons, so I did a hard reset, tried to restore it. But not I cannot not even open my iPad, when I try sliding to open, it i not working at all. Not even after another hard reset and new configuration. Some kind op virus seems to have caused damage. Any advice on what to do next? I am clueless,
Your help would be highly appreciately.
