  • Can I get my contacts back from old backup files after restoring iphone?

    Hi,
    I've recently upgraded to windows 7. My iphone crashed recently and I have restored it. It is now working but all my contacts, apps etc are lost, I assume because I had never synced the iphone since I got win 7.
    Though I dont have my old XP computer anymore I do have got the old hard drive out of it, so I was able to go into it and copy the folder containing the backup (c:\documents and settings\USERNAME\application data\apple computer\mobile sync\backup\) so I have got the old backup but I don't know how to use it. The backup is a folder containing several .mddata and .mdinfo files.
    Just putting the backup into the equivilent folder in win7 doesn't work so can anyone help me to do one of the following:
    either - use the old back up to restore my iphone in windows 7
    or - if the above is impossible or very complicated does anyone know how to read the old back up? I really just want the contacts which I can enter manually if necessary so I its possible to extract the contacts as text from the mddata and mdinfo files that would be great.
    I'd be really grateful if anyone can help.

    A 3rd party utility called MobileSyncBrowser allows for extracting this data from your iPhone's backup.

    I suggest you start syncing contacts with a supported application on your computer as is designed and intended.

    Don't you just love changes in interfaces?
    I found the answer to my question.
    When you attach a device (iPhone, iPad) to your Mac, in iTunes 12 in appears as a tiny icon in the second "row" of the iTunes display. Click the icon and the familiar iTunes display for the device appears. From there, on the Summary screen, you can see the dates of the backups of the device (iCloud and backup to the computer). You can also use the button to backup to the computer.

    iTunes won't recognize my password to restore my iPhone backup file after upgrading to ios5.

    Any advice?

    Nope.  You obviously didn't read (or didn't remember) the User Guide.  I will include a link for you.  If you use the iPhone as Apple recommends (so that you do NOT experience data loss), frequent backups are advised, as are synching contacts/calendars with an appropriate cloud service or computer-based contact manager like Outlook.

  • How to recover a single file

    As far as we know there is no way to recover a single file out of a database (incremental or full) backup - full database recovery is no option.
    However, the recovery of single files used to be a common task of our user help desk.
    Any ideas how to achieve this with OCS?

    Oracle Files has a two level trash. When users delete a file it goes into their Trash folder - and they can recover such files themselves. If they empty their Trash folder the contents are moved to the Archive. The subscriber adminstrator can recover files from the Archive.
    The subscriber administrator can configure how long files stay in the Archive before they are deleted.
    hope that helps,

    HOW DO I SAVE A FILE AFTER I HAVE CONVERTED IT FROM PDF TO WORD

    Hi,
    After converting your file a box will appear on top of the window showing 'Download' option.
    When click on that your file will be downloaded and it will show the notification at the bottom.
    Click on arrow -> 'Show In Folder'.
    It will direct you to the location where your file has saved.
    Regards,

    how can i fix "the sim card inserted in this iphone does not appear to be supported " after restoring a factory unlocked iphone 4

    The term "factory unlocked" has no meaning. Your phone was not legitimately unlocked. Contact the carrier it is locked to and find out if you can get it unlocked.
