How can I retrieve Apps and Contacts (possibly photos) from deleted iPhone?
Hi everyone, my wife asked me to upload an album from her iTunes onto her iPhone 4S this morning as she is going on a long walk. However I did not realise that she has never plugged her phone into her laptop since she got it. I assumed that she had done this at least once since getting her phone.
So when the phone was not recognised and prompted the question (set up as new phone) I clicked "no" and as a result her phone automatically synced to her old iPhone 3s back up from iTunes...
I have searched a lot but I am resided to the fact that I have wiped all her photos from her new phone, and all contacts she has made over the last year and any of the Apps she may have downloaded.
Is there any way of retrieving the information without having an iTunes back up?
I am going to try software from Wondershare when she gets back but can anyone suggest any other alternatives?
Thank you for your help on this..

By chance, was the phone backed up on iCloud? Was she using PhotoStream on iCloud? If not, the chances of revovering the data are slim.
As to the wondershare software, I wouldn't know. But if you have lost the data, trying it wouldn't hurt. You will be no worse off than you are now (except the price of the software).

How can I stop sync and remove a computer from my iphone?
How can I Cancel iphone wifi sync with my computer? and how do I remove my computer (W-VAIO) from my list? I did the settings from iTunes & it still doesn't work, I even hit the 'apply' button..... what do I do? I recently plugged a friend's phone on my laptop and it automatically sync'd everything to her, how do I turn off this feature so I can avoid this?
I recently upgraded my wife's computer to mountain lion so we could sync it with her iPhone, allowing her to send emails to the groups she manages whether she's at home or on the road.
Is it really the case that the iPhone is incapable of this? The mac does it fine and the iPhone goes through the motions but then bails when you hit send, saying it isn't a valid address.
This really makes no sense. Isn't this the whole point of iCloud? -
I have lost all my iphone contacts after I sign in to iCloud, how can I retrieve again my contacts?
This has happened to me too!
I have lost all text messages, photos, notes and calendar dates. Also some of the apps.
I think it was my second time of syncing. Also I tunes keeps opening when no apple prod is connected, and a dialogue box tells me it cannot find the I phone. When it is not connected?..

I have a windows computer. How can I create apps and put them on itunes?
You can't. The iOS SDK requires Mac OS X and an Intel Mac; Windows applications can't be put on either the iOS or Mac OS X App Stores.

my iPhone was stolen last night and I'm trying to recover all my photos from that phone and get them on my mac laptop. The iCloud photo stream only imported 1,000 photos from my stolen phone. How can I retrieve all of my other photos?
You have to reset the device to Factory Settings in order to restore it from an iCloud backup. You probably want to back it up as is before you do this.
To do the reset after you have backed up the current device, go to Settings>Reset>Reset all Content & Settings. This will erase the device. If you are signed onto iCloud with Find My iPhone turned on, go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom to sign out of iCloud before you do the reset.
Once you have reset your device, you will set it up like a new phone. When it asks if you want to restore it from an iCloud backup, select the backup you want to restore it from.

How can move the apps and playlists on my iPad to my Mac? Whenever I attempt to sync, I get a message stating that all apps and music on my iPad will be replaced by content from my Mac and there are no content. Thanks.
the apps will not be deleted if the itunes is authorised for the apple id from which you downloaded the apps.
for the songs if you have downloaded it from a store other than itunes an app "TuneAid" will help you. download the full version then you can copy all the songs on the ipad to ur itunes library -
i lost my macbook pro and i just got a new one. how can i retrieve the pictures taken with photo booth(old laptop) to my new laptop?
Well if you don't have the laptop to get the storage drive out of it, and you don't have any previous backups how do you expect to get the photo's?
PhotoBooth is just a program, it stores the files on the computers storage drive, if the computer is lost so are your photo's.
There is nothing you can do to delete or retrieve them using your new computer unless you stored them online someplace.
DId you save them online? iDisk or something else?
I don't use such services because my data is mine and not theirs to snoop through, so if your looking for that sort of help I can't assist you any. -

How can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?
how can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?
Thanks, varjak, it is too easy to fall into use of jargon assuming everyone understands what it means.
One additional point in all of this, not all "iDevice" apps run on every "iDevice". Some are customized for a specific device, or class of devices such as the iPod/iPhone with their smaller screen. Others for just the iPads for their larger screens. So the user needs to be sure they are getting an app that will work on their specific device.
And to Phoneboone, you do need to purchase the app again if it is for a different class of equipment. When you are looking at apps such as iWorks for the Mac and iWorks components for the iPad, the iPad versions are very inexpensive. Pages is only $10 (US) which is really cheap for such a good word processor that reads and saves in the MS Word format.
Anyway, search for what you need and just enjoy the convenience of so many options for apps. -

How can I remove my very old Apple ID from my Iphone 4S. The old ID is still staying on my mobile but that email doesn't exist anymore. I cant rest my mobile as everytime i tried it asks ID password which I don't remember.Hello mushysun,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you did not sign out of your Apple ID on your iPhone before creating a new one, then you will need to sign back in with your previous Apple ID and then sign out. If you do not remember your password and do not have access to the email account, then you can reset your password by using the security questions.
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

How can I see or transfer my old photos from my iOS 6 iPod Touch to the 'Years, Collections, Moments' in my iOS 8 iPhone 5S?
For example, my mom's 'Years, Collections, Moments' in her iPhone 6 has pictures from her old iPhones, even her 3GSGreetings Yushk,
It seems you would like to transfer photos from your previous device to your iPhone 5S. I have linked to an article which may help you. You can transfer those photos to a Mac or PC, then sync them to your new device:
Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
After you import your photos from your iOS device or Saved Photos, you can use iTunes to sync them back to your device.

How can I easily remove a group of photos from my iPad
how can I easily remove a group of photos from my iPad?
Iif the photos were synced to the iPad they can only be removed by connecting to iTunes on your computer, unselecting the photos folder that you synced to the iPad and then follow that with a sync.
IF the photos are in the camera roll, open the camera roll album, tap the as select button in the upper right corner, tap on each photo that you want to delete in order to select them and then tap the trash can icon.
