Help!!!! I'm trying to restore my back up discs

I have a Gateway 7818 and just recently did a full system recovery......I'm trying to load the back-up discs and am having a heck of a time.....does anyone have any ideas??????????
Thanks

If you did a full system recovery you shoulnt need to use those discs then. A factory image contains everything.

I changed my LCD last day and now i noticed all my pictures on my phone are gone. I tried to restore the back that I got yesterday but it wont let me because its telling me there is not enough space on my phone!!! That's wierd because I didn't download any app or anything else since my last backup and on the other hand about 3000 pictures are gone, how come there is not enough space left! I also check my usage on my phone and it shows that i have about 7.0 GB pictures!!! BUT my photos is empty! I want my picture back on my phone any solution anyone?

Sounds like your phone was previously jailbroken.

I'm trying to restore and back up my iPhone 4 it's taking more than 45 hours. What should I do?

I have been trying to restore and back up my Iphone which i have just updated and I wanted my apps, contacts, messages,etc,. all back on my iPhone but its taking more than 45 hours and it's only 16 GB. I have really important contacts that I need to have in my phone but it would take weeks to get them back one by one without using the back up.

As has been said, you may have a corrupt backup on your computer. However, if it is a Windows computer you may also have a corrupt socket layer in Windows. So first try this (after canceling the backup):
Open a command window with Administrator privileges and type:
netsh winsock reset
then reboot your computer and try again to do a backup (right click on the phone's name in iTunes and select Backup from the floating menu).
If this doesn't work you will have to delete the existing backup. Go to iTunes preferences, Devices page.
Note: If you have a Mac first try restarting it, launching iTunes, and back up as described above.

Hello Zerolove02,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information, take a look at:
Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Configure your security software
Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.
Common errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
Check USB connections
If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
Use another USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.

HT1766 hi, just got a replacement phone, tried to restore a back up, but keeps asking for my password, i type it in, and it keeps saying incorrect password...please help

its a 4s, backed up on the 5/sept at 10.49pm, trying to restore on 7/sept and it saus password incorrect.
have tried 1234, 0000, and my only itunes password, and the lock phone password i had when i restored it.
resarted my computer, turned device on and off....still cant do it..
i'm annoyed now!
can anyone help??
thanks
bambico

Because when you first saved an encrypted backup that is the password you used. The backup password does not "track" your password changes; it stays with what you started with unless you change it.

TS2529 I backed up my phone to my computer, then when I tried to restore the backed up version it hadn't backed up all of my content. What have I dont wrong and how do i find it?

I had a software problem with my Iphone 5 and so was told by someone in the apple shop that I should restore my phone to factory setting. So, i plugged into my computer and itunes, then backed up my phone to my computer. I wiped it and then clicked restore back up version. I did this the same way around 6 weeks ago when I was switching from my old Iphone 4s to my new 5, and didn't have a problem with it then. So, when I go onto my phone after it had finished restoring the backed up version I realised that the backed up version did not contain all of the data from my phone. For example, no text messages at all, no settings restored, and worst of all not a single photo. Not sure how this has happened, I cant seem to find the backed up version I did earlier today before wiping my phone. The only versions of my phone listed in the back up bit are the new crap version with all my stuff missing, or my old version from when I transferred from the 4s to the 5. I have managed to restore that version to my phone so at least I have everything I had up to 6 weeks ago. But i would really like the version from earlier today before it was wiped as I'm missing some important information and contact numbers. If anyone can help with this I would appreciate it. Thanks.

You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup that iTunes makes.

HT1338 when I try to update, I get a message that says none of the selected updates could be saved, you don't have permission?????? help. I tried to restore my hard drive, but the restore tab does not light up

HELP!! trying to restore

I purchased an update from the itunes store and this did not work so had to restore, my ipod has been stuck in the restore mode for over 10 hours now and am at a loss as to what to do, help please

Hey I use snow leopard.. thanks for the tip.. currrently I'm trying my osx 10.5 disc
No, that's not going to work. To restore a Snow Leopard backup, you must use a Snow Leopard install disc. If your iMac came with Snow Leopard, that one will work. If not, a retail (white) one will work, and doesn't violate the license, since you don't install OSX from it, just use the installer utility).
The backups will probably install, but your Mac won't boot (you don't get a warning up front that it won't work, unfortunately.)

Help!! Trying to restore mail preferences

I deleted my mail server and did not realize that it would also delete my inbox, sent messages, trash, etc.
I want to restore my mail program to exactly how it was at a back up I did this morning at 5am.
I have Time Machine up and running and when I go back into the old back up I cant find anything related to the mail program. I can't even find the "Library" folder under my user account.
I can not figure out how to do this or even where to find the "mail" folder that has all the preferences and old mailboxes.
Please help!!

To open your User Library, click on your Desktop to activate the Finder, then go to the Finder main menu:
Select the "GO" tab of the Finder menu and hold down the "option" key. Now you will see your User Library in the drop down menu. Click it to open in Finder.
Once the Library folder is visible in a Finder window, you can select the folder icon in the toolbar of the window and drag the icon to the sidebar of the window or to the Dock, to keep it accessible. If you want to find your Library in Time Machine it is important to have the Library accessible in the Finder.
Your Mailboxes are stored in the "Mail" subfolder of your Library, your preference settings in the "Preferences" subfolder in "com.apple.mail.plist".

My iPod touch 4th generation is stuck in recovery mode. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, but that hasn't helped. I tried clicking restore on the computer but an error message keeps coming up. HELP! PLEASE!

Like, every time I hit recover, it tries to contact the server or whatever and then it can't find it. The screen is stuck with the iTunes and the USB cable thing on it. Somebody please help me! Do you think if I take this to Radio Shack where my mom bought it for me my warrenty would help either get a new iPod or they could fix this for me? If anybody knows how to fix it, pleaseeeeee, pleeeeease help me out.

Download RecBoot and see if that will kick it out of recovery mode.
Try doing a manual install following the instructions in the link below.
