  • How do you restore your iPhone without deleting all your apps?

    Ok so I'm trying to remove Cydia from my iPhone 4, and I wanted to make sure it's fully removed. I managed to delete the app straight from my iPhone by force deleting the Cydia Installer package, and the icon is totally gone my iPhone. I deleted it because the jailbreak is eating up my battery. However, I don't think the jailbreak is completely removed.
    Question: How do you restore your iPhone from iTunes without deleting all your apps and everything from your iPhone? Like when I click restore it says it will delete it and you will have to repurchase your apps. I have tons of apps and I don't want to spend my money for the same thing twice! I want to know how (step-by-step) to back up and restore your iPhone without it messing with any of the photos, apps, etc.
    Also, will updating your firmware to 4.1 wipe out the jailbreak?
    Thanks a ton.

    How do I know if it's on my computer?
    If you bought the apps via iTunes, they will be on your computer. If you bought them with the iPhone, syncing would have transferred them. Look for them in:
    ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Mobile Applications
    Photos taken with the iPhone are transferred via iPhoto or Image Capture when the phone is connected to the computer. Other photos on the phone must have been synched from the computer, so should still be there.

  • TS1363 how do you unlock an Ipod that is disabled?

    how do you unlock an Ipod that is disabled?

    If the iPod is showing the 'disabled' screen due to too many failed passcode attempts then you will need to connect the iPod to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPod and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPod into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If you do it via a different computer then :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

  • How do you erase an iphone that is dead?

    My iphone died, won't take a charge anymore and only displays the empty battery symbol.
    I have a new phone on the way and will most likely hand the dead phone over to the tech guys (it's a work phone) but I want to clear the phone first. Who knows where the phone ends up after you hand it over.
    How do you clear/erase a 3G iphone that is dead?
    thanks

    I left it on the charger for hours but to no effect. As it was on its way out it would not even plug into my car radio to play itunes.
    How about running a very strong magnet over it?
    I don't like the idea of handing it over to the tech guys at my company and who knows where it ends up after that.

  • How do you restore your iphone from a certain date?

    Is there a way to restore your iphone 4s from a certain date (i.e. the last time you synced)? I downloaded a program today that enables me to access work email from my iphone; however, the security restrictions it has put into place on my phone (not my employer's phone) are making me want to remove the program. I have been told by out IT department that I can only restore my iphone & start over from scratch.

    Well, if you create iCloud backups, they overwrite one another every night around 1:30 AM, so that may not be so helpful unless of an emergency. The only other way is through an iTunes backup. When an iTunes backup is overwritten, it is sent to the recycling bin. It may take a while to determine which backup you want to open in iTunes, but once you do, you can restore your phone to the backup date of your choice.
    Thank you for choosing Apple.

  • How do I restore my iphone which is disabled?

    I just find one iPhone but it has a password.. i tryed to put it on Restore Mode but iTunes doesnt let me to restore, it says that my phone isnt elegible for this firmware, what shoud i do? i can't use this phone so?

    Did you bother to contact the carrier this phone was using in an effort to return the phone to its rightful owner? That's what you should have done.
    it says that my phone isnt elegible for this firmware
    That's an indication this iPhone was "hacked". If that's the case, you may never be able to install a stock firmware on the phone. Regardless, there is no support here for hacked iPhones.

    Connect the iPod to the computer and restore via iTunes. If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore.

  • How do you restore your ipod touch when disabled

    my grand daughter put a screen passcode on her phone and forgot it.  How do you unlock it so she can use it again.

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

    My iphone will not turn back on after i accidently said quit on the IOS5.0.1 update and i cant find out how to restore it

    If you can't get it work normally, put the iPhone into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:
