WHY IS IT SO DIFFICULT TO BACKUP MESSAGES </3

i don't wanna use the stupid program that called iTunes because i ONLY wanna backup messages
please help me guys i'm using mac
please if you know a free program that can backup messages let me know

iTunes backs up messages, along with other things.
iTunes makes it easy to restore to your iPhone.  iTunes should definitely be your way to proceed.

  • How to backup messages in Spice fire one?

    I am using Spice fire one and want to reset it but I do not know how to backup my messages because it contains really important messages.

    Hi abhipuru,
    Unfortunately, there are no native features in your device to backup your SMS messages.
    You may contact the manufacturer of your phone, Spice, and they may be able to provide you with a solution for this.
    You may also be able to backup some information in your device using the application PC-Sync from the Firefox Marketplace:

  • How to backup games on iphone on new PC

    Hi all,
    I formatted my windows system and connected my iphone. But when i connected my iphone it doesnt show any document file in Apps window. As i have to update my iphone to 6.1 through my system but if i update my phone it will erase all my stuff... i am only worried about my paid apps. Please suggest me how to backup my paid games from my iphone.
    Thanks

    Certainly you did not format the pc without first backing up your media and important data files.
    Use that backup to restore everything.
    iOS devices are NOT backup devices.

  • How to backup contacts in iphone to MacBookPro

    I understand the iphone backup does not include contacts - which is the most important thing (to me!) on a phone to backup! How do I ensure this happens?
    Also, I do not want calendar sync'ing b/t iphone and laptop, but do not see a checkbox to "uncheck" to avoid this....
    Thanks for any help! dj

    The iPhone's backup DOES include contacts, but not a good idea to depend on your iPhone's backup alone for this data.
    Contacts should be available on your computer and the iPhone is designed to be synced with a supported application on your computer. Not a good idea to depend on the iPhone or on any cell phone for contacts which can be lost or stolen.
    With a Mac, this can be with the Address Book application, which is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences, which is also where syncing calendar events with a supported application on your computer is selected/deselected.
    If you don't use the Address Book on your Mac - it is empty, before the first sync for contacts enter one contact in the Address Book. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.

  • E61 - how to backup messages saved to a customized...

    Hi,
    I want to backup all the contents of my E61 prior to handing it in for repair again. The screen doesn´t work, so I cannot navigate on the phone itself though I can connect it to my PC.
    In the "Nokia Communication Center" (I use Nokia PC Suite and that´s what opens when I hit the envelope symbol), I only see the following SMS folders: Inbox/ Draft/ Sent/ Outbox. On my phone, however, I have created a custom folder "important" and the text messages in that one are - well, important. One holds a licence key I needed to activate a piece of software and I don´t have that key any other place.
    Can anyone give me a hint how I might be able to backup the contents of that folder?
    Thanks a lot!

    Hello?
    Does no one have any ideas on this one? I would hate to have to buy that software again on top of everything else I face until I have a working phone again...
    I suppose that when I do a full backup including the messages (via PC Suite), those customized folders will also be backed up - but I´d like to be sure.
    I want to give it a shot and hand my phone in, at least to get a cost estimate so I can judge if it´s worth repairing or if I´d be better off with a new one from ebay.

  • How rman backup messages printed in alert file?

    surprised how the messages of rman getting printed in alert file?
    i am using 10.2.0.4 on AIX and using veritas net backups.....from rman.....
    ORA-19624: operation failed, retry possible
    ORA-19506: failed to create sequential file, name="c-1650503797-20091118-0c", parms=""

    Well. i agree. we have logs to capture media backups....so wanted to cut only these media backups failure out of alert file...else what is happening here is our monitoring reports these as alerts as already we know from media backup logs...So why not modify your monitoring of the alert log to exclude that particular error?
    Personally, I'd allow both systems to continue to report the error from their perspective.
    >
    in nutshell...just exploring any options to turn off the media backup failures like any rman parameters or can anything to do with veritas parameters?
    Anyway thanks to all for your valuable opinions.
    Thanks,

  • How to backup photo from iphone 4 to new computer..

    Hi there,
    I had a macbook which is sync with my iphone 4..All my data is already sync to the iphone..
    After that, i decided to sell my macbook and i purchased a new Computer..
    And then i wanna backup all the photo from my Iphone to the new Computer..
    But the problem is ,
    Is usually when we sync with the computer, All the data from New Computer will move to the Iphone , replace everything and all the photo from the Iphone will be gone??
    Or,
    The photo from my iphone will transfer to that new computer ?
    Thx so much

    I don't know about MacBook, but when I plug my iphone into my windows HP laptop a message pops up (part of AutoPlay).  It asks which action I would like to take.  I would open the folder (device) to view files.  Then you can locate any or all your photos from your device and manually import them to a file you create on your new computer.  In Itunes, do not select sync photos.  You are correct, this will import itunes photos back on your iphone.  If you do not get an autoplay message, you can locate your device by finding it through your drives (C is for your computer, F is for a DVD -- at least on mine). 
    I hope this helps.

  • How to backup a broken iphone 5

    The iphone 5 has a pass code on it but half of the screen will not work and it is impossobible to enter it. How can the phone be backed up or is it a lost cause?

    Did you drop your iPhone?  Have you tried a reboot?
    Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPhone will restart. 
    If that doesn't work, go to the Apple store Genius bar and maybe they can help you.  If they can't, you likely need to replace your phone.  Do you know when you last backed it up?

  • How to message an iPhone from Moutain Lion?

    The problem is, my address book (Contacts) entries have mutilple phone numbers and email addresses. So when I just type a persons name in Messages, there is a list of phone numbers and email addresses and on the right it says "imessage." There are also some that say AIM instead. Alas, none of those labled imessage seem to work.
    So how do I message an iphone? it should be easy.

    What do you mean by "available?" Surely I can send a message any time I want and they will recieve it when their phone goes on line.
    Yes, if the person has an iphone and they are out of range or something, the bubble will be white. You can still send.
    You can only message people who have an itunes account though, as imessage actually uses the ID email address of the iTunes account (Apple is supposedly tying the email address to peoples phone numbers, but I don't think it is done yet). So people who don't have an iTunes account but have an iPhone, when you put in their name it will show as red instead of blue.
    As to how to bring up the bubbles, I had forgotten but I just found an iphone user in my contacts that I have not sent a text too from Messages on the computer, and the blue bubbles just came up by themselves.
