How can I get my photos from my phone when it's asking to restore the handset?

I've just done a system upgrade on my phone and then it asked to restore.  The thing is I don't want to lose any of my pictures or videos.  Can I get round this?

Photos are included in the phone's backup. So if you did a backup before the upgrade (which happens automatically) they should be restored when the backup is restored. If you don't have a backup you are out of luck.

  • How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    You can't.  iCloud is not for general file backup from a Mac. It's for backup up and syncing data between mobile devices and and Macs and  The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: Backup and restore overview.
    iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your (mobile) device using iOS 5 or later. Once you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch .....
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
    Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
    Ringtones
    Visual Voicemails
    But not from a Mac.  If you want to backup your photos and other important files I suggest you get an external hard drive and use  it with Time Machine.

  • How can I get all photos from the camera roll onto the photo stream so they will share between iphone and ipad?

    How can I get all photos from the camera roll, and all new pictures taken, to get on the photostream so they can share between iphone and ipad?

    When turning PhotoStream on with photos available in the Camera Roll, only photos captured by the iPhone or saved on the iPhone are placed in the PhotoStream.
    For all photos that were in the Camera Roll prior to turning PhotoStream on, import the photos with your computer and add the photos to your PhotoStream on your computer.

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    - Make a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up.
    - Restore the iPOd from that backup.

  • How can i transfer my photos from my phone directly onto an external hard drive?

    My desktop is full on my macbook pro, so how can i download my photos from my old iphone 3 onto an external hardrive, without putting them on iphoto?

    1. Start Image Capture on your MacBook. It may be in LaunchPad under "Other" or you can start it via Spotlight (Command + space bar).
    2. Connect your phone to the MacBook. If iPhoto starts automatically, quit iPhoto.
    3. At the bottom of the Image Capture window where it says Import To, select Other and then navigate to your external drive.

  • How can I get my photos from my iphone back?

    I had lost my iphone 5 about a month ago. I purchased a new iphone 5 and began taking photos. When I accessed itunes, I clicked the restore button, and got all my apps and photos from my stolen phone back on to my new phone. How can I get back the new photos I have taken?

    Unless you did a backup of the phone prior to the restore, you don't. Remember that restoring to a particular date and time will restore the device to that particular date/time, so anything after that point is deleted.

  • My Laptop was stolen. How can I get my photos from my iphone onto my new laptop that are in albums, not the camera roll?

    I have photos in albums that are stored on my iphone. My laptop that I had everything backed up on was stolen. I would like to be able to re-sync my iphone with my new laptop (Windows 8) without losing the photos that are in my albums. I'd prefer not to have to individually email them all to myself and I have everything off the camera roll already. I would appreciate any and all help. Thanks.

    Also, ALL of the photos were taken by my iphone.

  • How can you get text sent from a phone on your account to your email?

    I need to know i can see what is being sent in text by a phone on my account or the number that is being texted but i dont know how

    The title of your post isn't the same as the post, so I'm a bit confused.  If you want to see the numbers being texted by phones on your account, log into your on-line MyVerizon account (assuming you are the Account Owner and logged in as such) and click the blue Usage Details.  Select the appropriate line at the top of the page (if applicable) and then under the table showing text usage, click the blue View Messaging Details.  However, texts sent/received via iMessage won't show up since they don't go through Verizon's system.
    If you want texts sent to your e-mail, you should be able to forward them.  If it's another phone on your account that you're wanting those texts sent to your e-mail, there may be an app for that, but I'm not sure.  With Androids, you can get apps that back up text messages and then forward them to your e-mail; I don't know if there's a similar iPhone app or not.

  • How can i get my contacts from my phone into my pc? itunes/excel

    Hi
    I'm pulling my hair out here so would appreciate any help from you kind people!!
    I just want to export the numbers from my iphone 3GS onto my computer, I'm not worried about format or on what program they are stored, its just as a back up in case i were to lose my phone.
    Simplest way possible would be good!
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    You don't need Outlook to sync contact info but if you have Outlook available, you can access your Hotmail account with Outlook.
    With XP you can sync contacts with Outlook 2003 or 2007 along with syncing calendar events, or you can sync contacts only with the address book used by Outlook Express called Windows Contacts or Windows Address Book.
    Before syncing contacts with the address book used by Outlook Express - which is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, enter one contact in the address book application on your computer. Make this contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.

  • How can I get my iPad to Sync Automatically when I plug it in. The Option is greyed out.

    My iPad came set to Sync Automatically. At some point I unclicked this Option. Now I would like to reset that option to AutoSync again. The option in iTunes is greyed out and I can not figure out how to get it to come back.

    On the computer's itunes, go to:
    Edit > Preferences > Devices > Deselect Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically.
