How do I recover data from broken iPad mini

My granddaughter broke the screen on her iPad mini. When I tried to get it replaced, the repairman stated two pins were dislodged and the touch screen will not work. How di I recover her pictures etc

The only way is if you have a backup on a computer or on iCloud.

How to properly recover data from "broken" hard drive?

Hello Mac users,
I have a mid 2012 Mountain Lion MacBook Pro. My hard drive recently failed. As I have been working in Thailand, I decided to bring my laptop an Authorized Service Provider (Macintosh Center Co., Ltd.) in Bangkok. Their diagnostic was that my hard drive wasnt working anymore, and I had to change it. The problem is, since I had no backup, I asked them to recover my data and transfer to the new hard drive. But, this Apple Authorized Service Provider told me I had to go somewherelse because they have no software to recover my data! So, I went to the local Joe's repair computer store who retrieved my data from the problematic hard drive to the new one. Now, the problem is that all my "old" data is located in "orphan folders". In other words, counteless files were retrieved without folders and settings.
So, I would like to know if it is possible to recover my data with all the settings I had and then transfer it to my new hard drive. If it's possible, what software should I use to properly recover my data? If it's not possible, how should I deal with the "orphan folders" and my current settings?
Thanks in advance for your help.

First stop using your system, then get a copy of a program that will recover files like Data Rescue 3. If you have a time machine backup you may be able to restore them.

How do i recover data from an external hard drive that was accidentally deleted? After I verified the drive, a message appeared that said my drive needed to be repaired. When I tried to access the drive again, the 700 Gigs of music is gone!

Stop using the drive immediately, un plug it.
Buy a copy of ProSoft DataRescue 4 and use it to search for deleted files.

How do I recover data from my dead hard drive?

How do I recover data from my dead hard drive?

Is it dead or corrupt? There are recovery programs out there, however if your HD is head, paying pros to do data recovery is VERY costly. Some have removed the platters and installed them in likewise drives that dont have head crashes, but torque tolerances are tight, and doing it right is a bit advanced and tricky for most. Ive done HD disk swaps 4 times and had success 3 of the 4 times. It requires cannibalizing another working HD. In the future remember the golden rule, 2 copies is 1, and one is NONE.
Its likely you could find a local computer repair station that can do it for you cheaply. HD dont really "die", they have fried SATA bus, or crashed HEADS........the platters DO demagnatize over long time due to heat and degauss of the data (poor storage, etc).........but in specific, a HARD DRIVE DOESNT DIE ,.........only the flying head mechanisms that read and write the data, and SATA / bus that feeds the data DIES,.......but the data (unless corrupt or magnetically corrupted) is THERE

I'd defiantly try a factory reset first to see how things look afterwards.
Its safe to say IOS8 is buggy for me and I'm sure Apple will fix many of the issues soon. The main problems I have experienced to date on a factory reset iPad Mini are as follows:
General system slow down.
Safari is very slow to render web pages, this could be WIFI related.
The keyboard seems slow to respond especially within Safari.
I opened a new email earlier this morning and it caused the iPad to auto reboot. Thats a first for me on an Apple device.
The ability to make / receive a call on your iPad always seems to fail for me. My iPad will ring when a call is received I will answer but it will immediately fail to connect. The same happens on outgoing calls.
Battery life on first impressions seems to have suffered since the upgrade.
Role on IOS 8.0.1...

How do I delete photos from my iPad mini?

Photos that were taken with the iPad (or any photos in the camera roll) can be deleted right on the iPad. Tap the trash can icon in the top right corner if you are viewing the photo in full screen, or if you are viewing as thumbnails - tap the arrow in the upper right corner - tap the photos that you want to delete and then tap - Delete.
Photos that were synced from your computer using iTunes can only be deleted by de-selecting them from the folder from where they were synced - and then re-syncing.

How can I delete music from my iPad mini?

I want to delete music from my iPad mini, as in from the library but I can't seem to be able to. Does anyone know how to do this?

If the music is downloaded/synced to the Music app (i.e. it's not in the cloud, it doesn't have the cloud icon against it) then you should be able to delete tracks by swiping/dragging across them from right-to-left. If you have iOS 8 on your iPad then you can use the swipe/drag to also delete albums and/or artists, or you can delete tracks / albums / artists via Settings > General > Usage > Manage Storage (under 'storage' heading) > Music. You can also delete all music via Settings > General > Usage > Music on iOS 7, Settings > General > Usage > Manage Storage > Music on iOS 8.
If the music does have the cloud against it then you can stop cloud music showing via Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music (under 'show all') 'off'
You can also delete music when connected to your computer's iTunes, either by changing your sync selection if using automatic syncing, or by selecting Music under the iPad 'device' on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes (option-comman-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC, should enable/disable the sidebar) and using the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and delete music

How do you transfer data from one iPad to another after manual setup of new device?

Okay so, i just got a new iPad air, to replace with my old ipad 2. I have already set up the new ipad, and backed up the old one. I went into the settings of the new iPad, and hit 'Restore from backup'. When i did this, it restored the ipad to the backup, but it only managed to get all of my photos, and three of my apps. None of my music was transferred, and neither was the rest of the backup. Now i cannot figure out how to transfer the rest of the data to the new ipad. How do i do this??

If you only backup with iCloud and have never used iTunes, then there is nothing more for you to do. But you have the iPad original so I'm guessing that you must have used iTunes at some point. This is what I would do - if you still use iTunes.
Backup the iPad, transfer purchases into iTunes, and sync one last time. If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.
Transfer purchases.

How to backup and restore from a backup
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
After you have all content saved in iTunes and iCloud go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings to wipe the old iPad.
When you get the new iPad, restore from your backup and then sync with iTunes. You will have the option of restoring from iCloud or iTunes when you set the iPad up. I used iTunes because I still use iTunes as my main backup and iCloud as my "backup" backup.
At some point, remove the old iPad as an associated device in iTunes. Do this after you erase the iPad,

How do I recover data from a repartioned boot drive?

Hello all, I am hoping someone can help me with my problem. I have a PowerMac G5 1.8 single CPU. OSX 10.5.
Recently my 'B' hard drive dedicated to Time Machine failed. I purchased a replacement drive, and when in disk utility I accidentally repartioned my 'A' drive. So now there is no startup disk. Can I reverse what I did? I am thinking no.
I have Data Rescue by Prosoft, and I scanned it and I can recover all from the A drive (it's about 2 TB for everything). But I don't need to recover the OS since I have the disk. I just want all my data.
So here are my questions:
I don't have a 2TB drive. I could purchase one and recover all the data from the A drive. Then what do I do? I assume I would reload a fresh install of 10.5 onto the new B drive (saving A for now). Then how do I get all of my files and setting backs into the new boot drive? Is there an easy way to reimport?
If I don't buy a 2TB drive, what are my options? Again I assume I would load fresh 10.5 onto B, then try to recover the files I need from the old A drive. I have tons of photos, emails, and some PShop and Illustrator work files.
What happens of I reload 10.5 back onto the A drive? Will it wipe out all of the files I want to save, or is OSX smart enought to keep data and only install the OS?
Are there any other options for me?
Thanks,
Neal

Run Data Rescue and cherry pick the data off the original A drive onto the new boot disk B.My fear is that I am not savvy enough to filter through all the files I don't need to find what I do need, and then knowing where on the new drive to put it.
Safer to recover everything that's recoverable, then pick out what you want, and ensure it's usable.
Oh, another question. Let's say I get the new 2TB drive and recover everything, does that mean it become a bootable disk again? Wiil it behave like the original A did? I understand there will be some damage, I'm just not clear (and Data Rescue's literature is not clear) on what happens after a full recover. I guess it will just be folders/files that I need to review for what I need.
No, it won't be bootable; you'll just have a data disc.
