Getting back text messages and videos

My iphone was freezing up, so I restored it. I was able to sync and get everything back except my old text messages and a few videos is there anyway I can get them back?

Moving from a BlackBerry to an Android, there is no "direct" backup file type that will accomplish this. I've used Verizon's Backup Assistant to transfer contacts from a BB Bold to an Android OS phone without any issues.
Text messages are something else. If you are using Verizon's Integrated messaging app, you can back up your texts and then restore them on the new device. There may be other third party texting apps that allow backups as well.

My computer died when I was syncing music from iTunes onto my iPad. I can reset it and get it running, but I want to get back my photos and videos. How do I get back photos and videos in recovery mode?

I accidently synced my phone to my dads itunes account, so when he went to 'backup' his phone, he got all of my photos and text messages. How do I get his text messages and photos back?

When I first got an iPhone, I didnt have my own iTunes account. So in turn i used my Dads. Well being unaware of what i was doing, I synced my iPhone to his account. Well a couple of months ago, i started using my moms apple ID to buy things in the app store, and i started recieving her text messages. Now my dad, has plugged his phone into his itunes account and has synced it and has all of my photos, his contacts are still there, but he has all of my apps, all of my text messages and has all of my photos. What can i do to get his things back? And stop getting my moms text messages. I really would like some help on this please Thanks!!!

How can i get back the pictures and videos i deleted?

I deleted some of my pictures and videos two months ago. now I really really need them , is there any way that I can gt them back.

Two months ago? Highly unlikely, but you can try these;
Data Rescue 3;

Stellar Phœnix;
http://www.macintosh-data-recovery.com/
Both programmes will give you a free download to scan your HD and see if the files are recoverable, but you'll have to pay for the full application to actually recover them.
In this case I doubt there'll be much left to recover as the files will probably have been overwritten by now. If you're really desperate you could try a Forensic recovery service, but you'd be talking 4-figure cost with no guarantee of useable results.

Is it possible to get back old music and videos i've bought through the store? I'm on a different computer

I'm on a new computer and i have bought a movie and alot of music but i'm on a new computer is there anyway i can get my music from my account? Even if i'm not on that computer anymore? I'm a little annoyed since i used some of my own money to buy a whole lot of that music.. Someone told me i can connect me ipod to the itunes and the music will go over to it but it wont show my video b/c i'm old school and have the old ipod...

Go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. From there you should be able to re-download some or all of your purchased content. Note that not all content has been licensed for re-downloading in all countries at this time; you can see what content you can download here:

You can also do this from an iOS device.

Or you can just copy the content over from your old computer, or restore from your backup.

How can I get back lost photos and videos after updating

I am having a big problem I tried to use a back up but that didn't work out well.

You should be importing all pics and vids taken with iphone regularly as you would with any digital camera, most especially before any update or restore
If you failed to do this, then they are very likely gone.
All you can do is try a restore from backup

My daughter and I share the same apple ID. I am getting her text messages andphone calls. How do I stop that?

Get your daughter her own Apple ID.

I loaded ios7.1 to my Ipad2 and my wife's cell phone came up. I can't change it and now I get her text messages on my iphone4S and she is getting apps I download on her iphone 4S. How do we fix it?

I recently downloaded ios7.1 to my ipad and my wife's cell phone # appeared on my ipad. It would not let us change it. Now I am getting her text messages and she is getting the apps I load on her iphone4S. We both have iphone 4S, but she has version 7.1 and I still have 6.0 because I didn't like the changes in v.7.0. We share an Apple ID and password which was not a problem before. My daughter says this is our problem, as she had her husband had this issue. She doesn't know how he fixed it. Has anyone else had this issue and can you tell us how to separate our Apple ID/passwords if this is, indeed, the problem?

If you share an Apple ID, both of your phone numbers should be linked to that ID. You should be able to use your phone number as well. My wife, my daughter and I all share an Apple ID for purchases, and we each text from our iOS devices using our own iPhone numbers.
When iOS 6 came out, you were able to link the phone number with your Apple ID to use for Messages and FaceTime. You will need to sign out of messages on all devices and then start the process all over again.
Take a look at this.

HT3529 I lost some text messages and I want to get them back. I tried an iTunes backup, but I ended up losing even more messages.

Go to settings>messages>send and receive at>you can be reached by iMessages at> Uncheck your phone number and you can select your Apple ID emal address if you want to use that for messages.

HT5622 I lost my phone in Regina, Saskatchewan and had my same number to my new phone I purchased in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. All my contacts, text messages, and a few pictures and videos automatically transferred to my new phone how get latest pics

My phone number is same as phone that was lost. When the rep from Bell in Moose Jaw, sask all my contacts, text messages, and only some of my pictures and videos came through but, not all of them, it loaded my oldest pictures and videos. I want the latest pictures and videos, how do I do that? I also purchased 15 GB Icloud storage, when I go into the "Manage Storage" at the bottom of screen it says 12.1 GB available of 15.0 GB on icloud the processing bar has only moved slightly and just stays that way. What do I do to get all my pictures and videos?

On your iPhone tap Settings > iCloud
Make sure Photo Stream is switched on.
iCloud does not store videos. Images only.

I plugged my iphone 5 into my windows computer and it automatically restored my phone so all my photos and messages and apps were deleted. is there anyway i can get my text messages back??

is there anyway to get my text messages back onto my iphone 5 after plugging it into my windows computer?

Your title asks "How do I get my iPhone information back on my (iPhone)?
You also said "I have yet to back it up." Therefore, all your information that had been on your iPhone is now gone.
Your iPhone has (and will continue to) been refreshed from iTunes.

My iPhone 4S deleted all my text messages and it said u can retrieve them back if u do backup resort and I did and it completely wiped out all my messages and I just want my text messages and photos back

Someone please help me get back my text messages from my boyfriend that have a lot meaning and my heart is shattered cuz I lost all those text messages.. Please help me get back my messages from him!!

You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

'imessage' turned off and not getting some texts message

Hi
I have turned 'imessage off on my iphone 5.. Now im not getting some texts messages from people.
I have had it turn off all the time as i run a group text app. I did the current 'software update' and it turned imessage back on. I didnt realise for a few days. I have now turned it off. BUT now im not receiving some peoples texts??? any ideas what to do??
Thanks

Those messages are probably queued up waiting to be delivered
Try turning iMessage on for a brief period and see what happens
If you permanently want to not use iMessage you should consider de registering your number
