How do I retrieve apps and books that were lost in recent software update for my iPad?

Is it possible to retrieve lost apps and books in recent software update?

Yes it should be possible deppending on your version of ios on your ipad. In the app store you can go to "purchased" and download any apps you've previously purchased. I'm not sure if this will also work for books or not. Also, if you haved synced your ipad to your computer, itunes will have all your data (books, apps, music etc...) and you can load it all back up.

How do I retrieve all of my music, videos, apps, and pictures that were lost after I updated to the new iOs 5 thing

tech support sent me here and I need to figure this out

Some of those are part of the backup, for example photos, app data and settings and much more:
iTunes: About iOS backups
If you still have the backup from the time before you updated, use it to restore from.
Download the apps again for free before you start, apps are not part of the backup data made by iTunes.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Those apps should also be part of your iTunes library on the computer you usually sync to.

How can I recover bookmarks and files that were lost when Firefox updated?

This morning, there was a message that firefox needed to be updated. Since I don't like (or use) Google Chrome or IE, I unchecked those options as part of the update. Once the update was completed, all of my bookmarks and folders were gone. Is there ANY way to either recover the missing items OR restore/roll back to the firefox browser I was already using?

Hi, first open bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import and Backup >Restore, and see if you have a backup there.
If not, please see - [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]], and [[Recovering important data from an old profile]].
If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

How do you close apps you hve looked at with the new software update?? You used to have to double click the home button and the apps would come up to delete bu that doesn't happen anymore.

The apps in the multitaskbar should appear like pages on the whole display. To close them, just swipe from the bottom to the top. you can select single apps for closing, when you swipe them like you would swipe your homescreens.

Yes.
Choose Apple menu > Restart. Hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys as your computer restarts.
When you see a white screen with an Apple logo in the middle, you can release the keys.
Click Disk Utility, and then click Continue.
In the list at the left, select the item you want to repair. (Be sure to select an item that’s indented to the right in the list, not an item at the far left.)
Click First Aid.
If Disk Utility tells you the disk is about to fail, back it up and replace it. You can’t repair it.
Click Repair Disk.
If Disk Utility reports that the disk appears to be OK or has been repaired, you’re done.
Otherwise, you may need to do one of the following steps.
If Disk Utility can’t repair your disk or it reports “The underlying task reported failure,” try to repair the disk or partition again. If that doesn’t work, back up as much of your data as possible, reformat the disk, reinstall Mac OS X, and then restore your backed-up data.
If you continue to have problems with your disk, it may be physically damaged and need to be replaced

How do I get music and books that are on my iPhone4 to show up on iTunes and vice versa?

I have an iPhone4 which has the Nook app on it. I have about 70 books that I have purchased from BN.com and two of them show up in iTunes on my laptop. Why don't the others? Conversely, I have copied some of my music cds onto iTunes but they don't show up on my iPhone. A couple of songs that I purchased on iTunes are on my phone - is there a way to get the other music OR is there a way to tell what will sync between the two?

As for the content purchased from BN.com that shows up in the nook app... check with Barnes and Noble to see if it's possible for that content to show up on your computer.

How do i get my apps and music i've lost e erything arfter updateing and i've tried restoring.

.

You can redownload apps at no additional cost. See:
How to redownload purchased apps from the App Store
You only get one download of music and videos and it is up to you to back it up. Music, videos and the apps themselves (app data is) are not part of the backup and is synced to your iPod at the end of an update. It appears the the apps and music were not in your iTunes library and thsu would not be restored to your iPod.

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).

HT1449 How can I retrieve a audio book, that says it's been downloaded, but is not anywhere I can find to hear it?

I am having trouble downloading an audio book from iTunes, it says that it downloaded, but it is not anywhere that I can see to hear it. Does anyone have any ideas that can help me ? I have already contacted support, but the advice given still has produced my audiobook that I have paid for.

Hello Slordan2012
Log in to appleid.apple.com and resend the verification email to then verify the address. If you cannot get pass that, then you can always force the restore on your iPad and then enter in the password to bypass trying to turn it off.

How can I retrieve all the CONTACTS that were deleted after the sync of iphone to Mac?

After I backed up my iphone onto my Mac computer I was asked If I wanted to save the photos from my phone. I said DELETE. Then I discovered my address and phone numbers (CONTACTS) went empty in the iphone. How can I reverse my DELETE and get these Contacts back to the iphone?

iCloud maintains a database of your contacts which it uses to keep all devices and computers connected to the same iCloud account in sync. If you ever wonder whether you've lost contacts because they do not appear on a device or mac/pc, you should log into iCloud.com using a computer's browser and go to the Contacts page. You should find your contacts there. If there but they do not appear on your device, see below for instructions. If they are not there, then for one reason or another, they have been deleted. See below for options if this is the case.
Getting contacts from iCloud to a device.
Your device/computer needs to be connected to the proper account in iCloud and have contacts set for syncing. Go to Settings>iCloud (for a device) or System Preferences>iCloud (for a mac - can't help you with a PC, but hopefully you'll know where to go). Be sure iCloud is turn on and that you have the right account. If you need to change the account, scroll to bottom of screen (device) and tap Delete Account. Find a similar button on a mac. This will not delete data from iCloud, it only disconnects the device/mac from the current account. Then enter ID/password for the correct account. Next, be sure Contacts is turned on. [If it has been turned on, try turning off and then back on. If still not working, disconnect from iCloud and connect again.] You should get your contacts back.
Contacts are gone from icloud.com.
Then they have been deleted. There are many reasons for this. One possibility is that someone else is using the same iCloud account (family member, etc.) and they deleted contacts, thinking they did want them on THEIR device. How to get them back? Unfortunately, an iCloud backup does not include any of the sync databases, like contacts, notes, calendars, reminders, etc. because the data is already stored in these databases. Your only hope for restoring the data is if you had that data on a computer (like a mac's Contacts, Calendars, etc.) and that data was backed up using whatever backup software you typically use (e.g. Time Machine on a mac). Just restore the data files back to the computer. Other than that, I'm afraid the data is gone.

How can I retrieve texts and photos from a lost iPhone without backup?

I recently lost my iPhone at a concert and unfortunately, it was never connected with iCloud, nor was it backed up to iTunes. I got a new iPhone and connected it to iTunes. I have my contacts (taken from my sister's iPhone) and voicemails, but nothing else. I would really like my old text messages and photos, but have no idea what to do in order to get them. Please help! And like I said, backing up will not work, and I tried to use iphonebackupextractor.com also.

Let me get this straight.....You lost your phone. You never backed it up, either to your computer or to a cloud service.
How in the world would you expect to get data back?

How do I get back old emails that were lost when I changed my email address?

I changed email providers. I have the new account set up. I then went to Tools/Account Settings/Account Actions. I then removed the old account (assuming that it would stay in my inbox and just not try to send or receive) and all of the old incoming and sent emails that I had been saving under that account in my inbox and sent files folders disappeared. How do I get them back?

Which program do you use for email: Thunderbird? Outlook Express? Other?
As you may know, you can set up accounts using two different protocols: POP3 and IMAP. With POP3, you actually download copies of all mail and Sent messages are stored locally. Removing your account should be no problem. With IMAP, you are viewing a mirror of your mail which really lives on the server. Removing an IMAP account might remove the folders, although I can't recall ever trying it.
