How can I see my messages after restoring from backup?

I have 2.1gb of messages saved in my storage on my 4s but they're not in messages after restoring from backup.
How can I get all my messages back in my message app because I know they're their it's just a matter of getting them restored into the app.

When you restored your phone from an old backup, it wiped ALL data from your phone and replaced it with the data from that backup.  It's like your phone went back in time. 
Your data that was on the phone before you did the restore is now gone forever.  There is no way to get these data back.

    My Gf has my iphone. How can I see recent messages and calls from another device?

    Depending on your carrier, you may be able to see recent calls by logging into your account on the carrier's web site, if they offer such a feature, though incoming calls being shown is not usual. There will, as diesel said, be no way to see messages already received, either SMS/MMS or iMessages, without having the phone.

  • How can i see text messages people sent from when my phone was turned off?

    i was abroad for the past 3 months, and my phone was turned off (NOT deactivated). when i got back i received one text from 5 minutes before i had turned the phone on. I know for a fact that i should have received numerous texts/picture messages, etc. Is it too late to receive these in some way? There are also voicemails but i can accept that these are gone forever. Are pending texts/ whatever deleted after a certain amount of time?

    If the text message is not able to be delivered for 5 days, it is deleted - so only the most recent days would be coming when when you turned the phone back on. New voicemails would be saved until the mailbox is full, I would think.

  • How can i see txt or numbers txt from phone that is on my plan

    how can i see or print out txt from a phone on my plan ..either the txt or number that was txt

    The text content is not available via your on-line MyVerizon account; you might could get the past 3-5 days' worth of texts from Verizon, but it would require a court order.
    You can print out texts by backing them up via a third-party app and forwarding the backup to your e-mail, or by forwarding individual texts to your e-mail.
    You can view the text logs for all lines on your account (assuming you are the Account Owner and logged in as such).  Log into your on-line MyVerizon account and click the blue Usage Details under My Usage.  Scroll down to Messaging and click the blue View Messaging Details.  Use the drop-down to choose th appropriate line.

    after restore from backup, iphone is not getting start, only apple logo is there on screen

    Hi there.
    Try some basic trouble shooting steps first, before looking into some advanced issues that might be causing this. The first thing I would try, is holding down the power button and home button at the same time until the screen turns off on you. See what steps you can take from there, if any.
    Kind Regards.

  • After restoring from backup on a new phone (same model, just replacement) all my apps are showing as waiting....I have sync'd but still without any joy - this has been going on for hours

    It just means some spammer is using your email address as the sender address for their spam. This is very easy to do - anyone can do it simply by changing the From email address in their email program. It does not mean your account was hacked or you have a virus (there are no current Mac viruses on the loose anyway, nor has there been for years).
    There's nothing you can do about it. It can happen to anyone and the spammers will move on to using someone else's email address before long.

  • After restoring from backup on iCloud, my photos have been "downloading" for 2 days with no progress at all.

    After restoring from backup on iCloud, my photos have been "downloading" for 2 days with no progress at all.  Everything else seems to by fine, however. I have all my apps, contacts, even my photostream back, but my camera roll has said "downloading 137 of 1,345" for two days.  I really don't want to have to start over as the whole process took almost 3 hours. Help?

    Someone mentioned that syncing with ITunes, making sure that photos are being synced - even with an empty folder, fixed the problem.  I tried it and it didn't work for me.  Anyone got any answers that don't include losing the photos or erasing and restoring from backup again?

  • I have a new iphone how can I see what is on iCloud from my old iphone?

    I have new iphone and ipad.  How can I see what is on my old iphone on iCloud so I can delete some space???

    If you mean you want to see what is stored in the iCloud backup of your old phone, you can't.  You can only see data in a backup by restoring it to your device.
    If you mean you want to see the data you old phone was syncing with icloud, either go to icloud.com from your computer or sign into the account on your new phone in Settings>iCloud and turn on the data you want to see.  It will then download to your phone.

  • HT4859 How can I see what in in my icloud backup?

    Not all of my pictures were restored when reloading my iPad from a backup. Is there a way to see what was backed up to verify my pictures exist?

    Many users have lost photos while preforming a restore from backup or upgrading the iOS.   Recall, only photos in the camera roll are backed up to iCloud.  There is a way to turn backups for camera roll on/off, perhaps these users had camera roll turned off.
    See:
    Settings>icloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage,  tap the device's name and on the next screen, be sure Camera Roll is turned on.
    IMPORTANT...
    Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album) or using photo stream - and then moved into permanent albums for storage.  If using Photo stream, but sure to move the received photos to a permanent album.  If you have been doing that, then you can sync those photos back to your device.
    If you haven't been saving photos except relying on iCloud to store them in a backup, then that is risky, as many users have discovered.  I'm afraid I have no advice in this case - there is no "cure".

  • After restoring from backup, iPad hangs after sliding to unlock-I have to reset every time to get it to work--Any fix?

    I have a first generation iPad.
    After having crashing issues I restored from backup.
    Since restore, whenever I slide to unlock, it hangs for few minutes.  Then I get a pictrue of the spinning circle but is doesn't spin---just hangs there--frozen.
    I have to reset the iPad to get it to function every time (holding down the home button/on-off button).
    Any ideas on how I can resolve this issue?

    Seems to have something to do with the passcode.  I turned the passcode off and now there are no issues.
