HELP - how to get photos from iphone after Telstra wiped it

Hi
I am asking this question on behalf of my sister. She had her second child last week and her husband took heaps of photos on his iphone from the birth and the first couple days in hospital, I'm not sure what model his iphone is but he only got it in the last couple months. On the weekend him and a mate mixed their phones up, his friend kept putting his pin code into my brother inlaws phone and by the time he reaised it wasn't his phone he had locked it up somehow (I don't have an iphone so I'm not sure about all of this!) They took it into the Telstra shop and they got the phone working again, but in the meantime it wiped all his contacts/photos etc that were stored on the phone. My sister was very upset as now they don't have any photos from when Charlie was born. The girl at the Telstra shop said they are gone forever and there is no way to get them back but I am hoping there is somehow - can anyone help us?
Thanks
Jade

Sounds like the girl at Telstra did a restore of the phone and then wipe out all the data on your bro-in-law phone.
Data could've been saved if your bro-in-law would've synced his phone to the computer he normally syncs too.
By doing the restore there is no way to get the data back from the phone.  Sorry.

  • How to get photos from iphone to ipad ...?

    I am tyring to get photos from my iphone to my ipad...the photos from the ipad moved to my iphone but photos from the iphone did not move to the ipad. Photostream settings are on; wifi is connected on both devices...

    You're welcome.  It is possible to stream to older photos to your iPad by adding them to a shared photo stream and inviting yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99).  Another option is use an app like PhotoSync to transfer photos between your devices over wifi.

  • How to get Photos from iPhone to MacBook?

    I've just upgrade my iPhoto library to the new Photos app and photos which used to automatically copy from my iPhone to all my devices, including MacBook are no longer copying. I can't use iCloud as I have too many photos to mirror the whole library and connecting my iPhone to MacBook by cable no longer syncs via iTunes either ... HELP please

    and connecting my iPhone to MacBook by cable no longer syncs via iTunes either ... HELP please
    After connecting to your Mac by USB download directly to Photos or to Image Capture.
    If iTunes does not copy from your photo libraries to the iPhone, it looks like you enabled iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone. Then iTunes will no longer sync photos, and My Photo Stream will no longer stream from your Mac to your Phone.
    Try to disable iCloud Photo Library in Settings > Photo&Camera.

  • How do delete photos from iphone after import to new photos app?

    With iphoto (or aperture which I own), after importing photos I was always asked if I wanted to remove the photos's from my phone. With the new photo's app I don't get that option, and I certainly don't want to delete 1200 photos by having to individually select each one on the phone. Any ideas?

    You should ask on the forum that Apple told you to use for Beta software discussions. This isn't the place. The moderators will likely soon remove your post.

  • How to get photos from iphone on to laptop

    Im not sure if im being completely thick, but normally when i plugged my iphone into my laptop a menu came up asking if i wanted to transfer the pictures from my iphone onto my laptop.
    But its stopped doing that. I thought it was my laptop's fault, but when plugging in any other device the menu comes up so im starting to think its the phone. I use an iphone 5, and have had this problem since i'd got it. Essentially, all my pictures are stuck on my phone & i cant get them onto my laptop.
    Help appreciated

    how to get photos from mac to iPhone 6? when i try it just comes up iCloud instead of my photos

    Make sure Settings > iCloud > Photos > iCloud Photo Library (Beta) = "Off"
    Then sync your iPhone using iTunes and make sure your sync settings for photos are set correctly in iTunes.

  • How to get photos from pc to iphone ?

    how to get photos from pc to iphone?

    1. Connect your iDevice to your computer with the USB connector. Open iTunes and select your device from the left sidebar. Then, select the photos tab from the top menu.
    2. Organize and sync.
    First choose where you’d like to sync your photos from. I use iPhoto, but you can use any photo management system.
    Check the box next to each album &/or event you’d like to sync.
    Alternatively, you could put all the photos you want to transfer into a separate folder on your computer, and choose to sync just that folder from the drop down menu.
    Notice that I’ve checked the box “Include videos” so any included videos will also sync.
    When your selections are made, click “Apply” and the photos will sync to the photo library on your device.

    To sync any photos that are not part of photo stream, you will need to sync the photos to your computer via iTunes first and then to the other device.
    WC, will this work from photostream on my computer too?  I just turned photo stream on on my computer.  Thank you.  Liz

    Are you attempting to do this with iTunes? What you ask is a job for iPhoto. Did you try to import the photos to iPhoto?

    How to get photos from iPhoto back onto a SD card. I have a MacBook Pro with built in SD card slot. I have tried "Export" but this does not work.

    It's best to export the photos to a folder and then drag the folder onto the memory card.  Memory cards are usually formatted for PCs, FAT 32, which doesn't permit more than a limited number of files in the root directory. Putting the photos in a folder gets around that limitation.
