How can i retrive my back up data

I finally updated my IPod touch after a few years. Prior to downloading, a window popped up saying I can download the update to my computer so I dont lose my content.Well that I never got the option, it went right into "Backing up my IPod" so I figured its backing everything up. Once it was done, that's when I realized I lost ALL of my 3000 plus songs!!!!!!! How can I get it back?????

- Depending upon yur location, yu may be able to redownload iTunes' purchased music by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- For other music, you will have to get it from where yu got it the first time. The backup that iTunes mkes does not include music, apps and some other stuff. See:

  • How can I recover my back up data?

    I back up data on iTunes (iPhone 5)
    And I accidentally deleted some files on iTunes and iPhoto folder. (I don't know it is the back up folder)
    Now I found out that my application are all grey, they don't show the image of the apps.
    I also imported all the photos in iPhoto, for sure they were gone.
    I still have my contacts
    I try many applications, but I have to buy them for around $30 to recovery my files.
    Thank you in advance.

    Time Machine is not for archiving files. it keeps a record, backup, of what is on the internal hard drive in your system. Deleting files on the internal hard drive will eventually remove those files from the TM backup files.
    Not sure there is anyway to recover them as TM thinks you no longer wanted or needed those files because you deleted them from the internal drive.
    Good Luck.

  • How can I retrieve my backed up data in icloud?

    My iPhone went out on Thursday so i purchased more storage on iCloud and backed up my phonr to it. The new iPhone that was given to me did not have the iOS 5, so i had to get it via my PC. I did the usual sysnc and put the most recent back up in just to get the new soft ware in the phone. Now I don't know how to get the data I backed up in iCloud, any ideas?

    You can't.
    You can restore the phone with that backup to get the photos back.
    Note that only the photos in the camera roll are backed up.
    Ideally, you will be syncing your photos to your computer (and regularly backing up your computer).
    Then you would simply resync the photos.

    My current situation: I have soooo many texts on my iphone and I haven't deleted many because I need the information contained in them for future reference and for legal purposes.  I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself. I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need.  It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and my MacBook Pro.
    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

    They're not lost, they simply don't show because you settings ask it not to.
    Go to Settings --> Mail, Contacts, Calendar --> Calendar --> Sync --> All events

  • My friend took my phone and tried to guess my password to unlock it, and he locked me out of my phone for a minute, but when it unlocked and i tried to use my phone all of my apps, photos, all my data had been deleted. how can i get them back?

    As Ocean20 say, your only shot at recovering the photos and data is to restore from a backup (with iTunes if you took the backup with iTunes, through iCloud if you took the backup through iCloud).
    The erasure is to prevent your data from falling into the hands of somebody who takes your phone and eventually guesses your password. If you feel that the inconvenience caused by this feature and your friend outweighs the trouble that somebody could cause if they got possession of your contacts and other data, you can change this behaviour.

  • Upgrading to V4 has lost all of my Bookmarks, I still have the restore files in my profile data but they will not load, I have tried importing the html backup file too but it didn't work either. How can I get them back?

    Ok this is bizzare!
    Thank you for your response, I went throught each and every step without any luck, even got the recovery programme, and painstakingly tried to sift through all that mumbojumbo to find what i needed. finally found the bookmark bit, but it had been fully overwritten :(, so on reading about previous ff versions, found the sqlite thingys, and they were relatively unscathed(partly written over, but saveable apparently TG), saved them to adiff drive, amongst other possibly good folders. Then looked up how to install them, and it said to close FF, and install to profile folder.
    So i tried to close FF, and the original problem from a few days ago, where it asked me if 'i was sure i wanted to close this window as it has X tabs open', popped up again. This is where 'open blank page' selection was set, over 'open previous tabs'. Wanting to save that info on how to sort out these friggin files, I reset the Option to 'open previous tabs', and closed FF. After unsucessfully searching for the profile folder on my laptop, i opened FF intending to search online for where i could find said folder.
    AND BANG, surprise surprise, the FF I had just closed with only tabs open about finding out what the heck to do, had disappeared, and instead my original saved tabs were up, and my bookmarks are there..... I am gobsmacked! what the heck just happened there???
    I have made 3 back up in different folders now, of those friggin bookmarks. I am weary now tho of shutting it all down.... what if its back to the other pages I had with no bookmarks, tomorrow :(

  • HT4859 I forgot my passcode and then my phone reset and backed up but the icould its updated back to has lost all my data.... How can i get this back?

    I recently forgot a new passcode on my phone so it became locked. i went to rest this via itunes but when it came to restore the phone non of my data including contacts, apps, messages, photos etc are available. It seems to have restored to a back up from after the phone was wiped. How can i get these back?

    There's one other variable, although it shouldn't really come in to play but worth checking anyway.  Is it possible that the backup was made using a higher version of iOS than the one you are running now?  For example, if you were running the iOS 7 beta, then restored to version 6.1.3, the backup would not be listed as you cannot restore to a backup made on a device running a higher version of iOS.  If that's the case, you would have to update to the same or higher version of iOS in order to access your backup.
    Also, you can redownload apps and certain other purchased media (in most countries) as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.

    If you restore you will have to restore to latest Apple's software, that frankly *****. I did it and I completely regret. On iOS 6.1.5 NOTHING works.

  • I was typing a post on my blog and Fire Fox crashed. I lost my data. How can I get it back?

    Fire Fox has been crashing the last few days. Tonight, I was typing an article post for my blog and it crashed again. I was just finishing the article (900 words). The open sites usually come back up and they all did except the blog post site. I lost all my article post. I worked 3.75 hours on this. How can I get it back?

    Did you try:
    History menu > Restore Previous Session
    I'm not sure that's still available if you've been browsing around again for a while.
    ''Actually, you used session restore, so that's the same thing.''
    I'm not sure what blog platform you use, but I've noticed that WordPress auto-saves for me at regular intervals. If yours doesn't do that, you should definitely see about getting it set up.
