How do I retrieve my imessages once deleted

I have deleted a block of iMessages off my phone but want to retrieve them ? Is this possible ?

Hello Mikaela,
It sounds like you have deleted some messages from the Messages app, and would like to restore them. To accomplish this, you can restore from iTunes or iCloud from a date that had the messages on the device. Please note that this will restore the entire device to the way it was on that date.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

    How do I retrieve messages, iMessages, emails in I icloud backup?

    The only way to access text messages in the backup is by restoring the backup to your device.  This explains how to restore an iCloud backup: https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521.  The backup doesn't include email.  It does include your email account settings, but not the actual email.  Restoring a backup will not recover deleted email.

    How do I retrieve it?

    If you made a backup of the device while the conversation was on the phone, you can restore to that backup. If you did not do a backup of the device with the conversation on it, then the conversation is gone.

  • I accidently hit "forget about this site" in my history, and it deleted all related sites to it. i desperately need to get them back. how do i retrieve the forgotten or deleted sites from history in firefox4 ?

    i use the firefox4, and when i went to my history, i right clicked to delete a certain site, and accidentally hit the last option; (forget about this site) which deleted all the similar sites to the one i clicked! i.e. if it were facebook site, all facebook sites were gone..

    Tony, thnx for the prompt response,,
    however, i didn't delete. i hit the below option which reads; "forget about this site" which is the last item in the list that appears when you right click any site in history.
    i was told there are open source programs that can retrieve it.

  • How do I retrieve bookmarks that are deleted when I click onto a bookmark on my iPhone. Ive done something to my iCloud. I haven't backed up my stuff

    Ive done something to my icloud. Every time I click on a bookmark it updates and deletes everything. Everything in that bookmark is lost on my iphone and my laptop. How do I retrieve my deleted bookmarks?

    If you see next to these bookmarks you are in Edit mode and tapping the bookmark will delete it.  If that's the case you need to tap Done to exit this mode.
    If you don't see the symbol, try going to Settings>iCloud, turn Safari off, then after a few seconds turn it back on.  Then test your bookmarks again.

  • HT1923 how do I retrieve and reinstall a deleted iTunes song to the appropriate Album?

    How to retrieve and reinstall a deleted iTune song to the appropriate album?

    Please read before going through with this procedure.
    If you really want your contact back and you did not do another iCloud backap since you deleted some of your contacts, you can do a hard reboot on both devices with iClouded contacts by holding down the home and lock buttons on each of them for 10 seconds ignoring the slide to turn off thing. Make sure you have iCloud contact services off before doing so. You can then go through the whole set up process until you get up to the backup part. You then press to restore from an iCloud backup (make sure you choose the right backup for the right phone). If you didn't make an iCloud backup before the contact incident, you will have to use your two-month-old iTunes backups. Each phone should have their contacts the way they were from your last backup. You then go into Settings>iCloud>and turn off contacts. You then can choose if you want to keep your current contacts or not. Turn this off on both phones just incase you add another iCloud device to the mix later on. Now your contact lists are no longer linked (Caution: side effect may include lack of edit button). You may now add and delete contacts as you please without it happening on your other phone.
    Thank you for choosing Apple.

  • How can i retrieve my pictures accidentally deleted

    i was trying to download my pictures on my mac, next think my phone is starting to reset. i lost all my pictures. how can i retrieve my pictures.

    If you synced to your computer, then you may be able to restore from backup.  You would lose any pics taken since the sync.
    You should be importing all pics taken with iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

  • How can I access archived imessages, not deleted, on iphone 4

    How do I access imessages that haven't been deleted, just go back further than the stored conversation?

    I want to make sure that I understand this completely. You speak about iCloud mail, but you talk about @internode. You did not answer my earlier question, is this an email provider? Did you forward this mail to the iCloud account? I'm not exactly sure how you are doing things here, and that would make a big difference about how this mail is being handled, and how your mail folders would be viewed. If this account is being forwarded to iCloud for you to use on your device, then it would not display folders you are seeing on your computer, depending on how you have mail set up there. I'm not a Mac user, so how Mac's mail client handles mail is a little out of my purview. Is this @internode mail address what you used to create your iCloud account? If @internode is a mail provider, what type of account is it, as I asked earlier, POP, IMAP, or Exchange? If it is a mail provider, why don't you just set that account up on the device and handle it directly? I just need to get a better grip on how this is all working here.

  • How can I retrieve emails from a deleted account?

    Hi, I've done a stupid thing. I was setting up a new account and only wanted to disable my old account but deleted the account details instead of disabling, not realising that this would actually delete the emails as well and I had most of my emails sitting in the inbox and sent folders. Does anyone know how I get these back? I don't have any backups.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    If the account was an IMAP account, and e-mails that were on the server should still be there. However, I get the impression that isn't the case. For a POP account that has deleted the messages from the server, unfortunately, no, there isn't an easy way to get them back. You could try a file recovery utility, but I'd put my money against getting much useful data back that way. If you want to try, I believe that TechTool includes a file recovery tool.
    Since you don't have any backups, take this as your cue that you need to start keeping them regularly. Start today!

  • How can I retrieve emails that were deleted off my iPhone 4s when I changed the password to my email acccount?

    I changed the password to my email account and when I changed it in my phone all of my emails were deleted Is there any way to retrieve them? They are in the server and I can access them via Outlook just not on my iPhone or iPad.

    They won't be in icloud, since the only thing that would contain pictures are backups.  But they were deleted before you signed up for icloud, so forget that.  The only other thing to check is you computer.  Users are always advised to sync photos to computers for archiving.  If you did that, you should be able to find them there.  But without any backups or copies of them, then they are history.
    And no, you can't look at pictures in icloud.

  • How Can I retrieve old podcasts I deleted by error?

    Hello,
    I uses the last version 7.2.2 on MacOS.
    I deleted a few podcasts from an album I subscribed to.
    I know that the podcasts I deleted are still available on the publisher's site.
    Until version 7.1.... It was possible to retrieve old podcasts again by using the command "retrieve old podcasts" (or something like this) (just below "refresh album in the contextual menu). But it seems that this useful command has been removed.
    Is there any way to do it anyway?
    Many thanks in advance for any help.

  • How can I retrieve old iMessages (from phone) from Messages on my computer

    Hi,
    I recently installed Mavericks, and now have Messages. However, it only seems to have access to my texts from one person, and no one else.
    I have tried the steps described here—
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17818978#17818978
    —without success. In particular, my Contacts are synced via iCloud, my phone is aware of my Apple ID, its own number (which it automatically sends from), and two email addresses, and my computer knows that same Apple ID and phone number (which it is set to send from) and two email addresses. When I attempt to start typing a text message to a new contact, my text history with that person does not import. Their name shows up red.
    Much worse, when I tried to send texts to someone else (who I know uses an iPhone) via Messages, it instead sent it to the one person whose texts it has imported. I would rather be able to text more than one person.
    Thank you for any advice you can give.

    HI,
    Just to restate to make things clear.
    Lets presume the Apple ID is already on the Mac in Messages for the iMessages account.
    Then you should add the Apple ID to the iPhone.
    Once this is done the iPhone should show the number and th Apple ID in the Send and Receive spot.
    If you restart the Mac version at this point you should get a pop up saying what the iPhone is using.
    You should accept this and it will add the iPhone number to the Messages app > Preferences > Accounts > iMessages account details in the "Receive At" spot which in turn should show the drop down for "Send From".
    It is possible to have an email at Apple for your Apple ID that has never been verified.
    If this is the case there can be issues with the iMessages side of Messages and FaceTime.
    Go to the Apple ID site
    Login using the Manages option and make sure your email is verified.
    (it should send you an email and you click a response link to confirm).
    This may explain why the Mac version is not logging in properly and showing you the red names when you start to set up a conversation.
    EDIT
    Also you can only "Sync" the iMessages from the time both devices have the same Apple ID
