HT1766 Can I backup my I phone to an earlier back up date

Can I backup my I phone to an earlier backup date to try to recover photos etc.

No iTunes content is included in any iPhone backup. Once you restore from backup, you must either sync or redownload your iTunes content to restore it to your phone. So, yes, you'll keep your apps, but you'll lose any current app data. While the apps themselves are not included in an iPhone backup, app data is.

  • TS3992 old iphone won't verify my icloud account. Can't backup my old phone so I can start using my new phone

    My iphone won't verify my account even though I did it thru the email confirmation as instructed. I can't verify my i cloud account on my phone, it just keeps spinning saying it is trying to verify the acct, so I can't backup my phone info. I can't restore my current phone info to my new iphone until I get the original iphone backed up. Everything online seems to be setup and working, but my phone still won;t recognize the account. Should I delete the accoutn on my phone an dstart again? Will I loose all my info in my Itunes account?  Please help!!! This is driving my crazy!!!
    I thought they called these smart phones? This is a lot of work with no end in sight so far. :-(

    Did you click the Verify Now link on the verification email from Apple?

  • HT1766 Can the backup file for a IPAD be stored and accessed on an external drive?

    Can the backup file for a IPAD be stored on an external drive to free up space on a computer?

    There are some wireless external hard drives that can be used with the iPad.
    The Kingston Wi-Drive, which costs $50 for the 16 Gigabyte, and then $30 more for every 16 gigs more. It works by you turning it on and then accessing the files on it from an app that you download on your iDevice. You can access music, movies, and other stuff. No connections or anything, it works like a WiFi connection, you connect to it from the setting on the iPad under wireless networks.
    Then there is the Seagate GoFlex, which some would recommend over the Wi-Drive. But this one costs $199 and had 500 Gigabytes of storage. It works the sameway as the Kingston: no wires, runs over its wireless connection. You can actually fit up to 300 HD movies on it.
    Another option:

    You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

  • HT1766 Can I backup my iPhone to my iMac at home AND my Windows Laptop at work ?

    New to iPhone.  I have it backed up to my iMac at home but would like to back it up to my Windows 7 Laptop at work.  Any problems in doing that ? Should I create another Apple ID for the Windows 7 Laptop ?
    Thanks,
    RJ

    You can only sync to one itunes account.  IF you try to backup/sync to your work PC it will erase everything on your phone and you'll have nothing to backup to.
    Stick to your MAC.
    If you need to backup look into icloud http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766

  • HT1766 Can I backup manually and leave off the apps ?

    I believe I need to perform a reset to the factory default and know I need to backup my iphone first.  When restore the backup I would like to leave off the apps.  Can you restore bit by bit and not automatically restore the apps ?  Thanks for any tips.

    Makes sense to me so I'm not exactly sure what you're confused about. This clearly states that contacts are part of the backup in order to preserve recent calls and favorites.
    Well, let's start by emphasizing the back half of the same sentence you quoted:
    * Your contacts are part of the backup to preserve recent calls and favorites lists.
    Why would Apple even need to include the end of that sentence, and not simply end it at "Your contacts are part of the backup."?  What does that last part really mean to you?  By adding that last statement, it could easily be interpreted to mean as "the only aspect of your contacts that are recovered are those you've designated as favorites, and those who you've recently called".  If this is so clear to you, please explain what Apple meant by that last part.

    Your comment of "Apple only claims to save your Favorites and recent call history, that's all" is wrong and you need to learn to read.

  • HT1766 Can itunes backup ipad/iphones to a different hard drive in windows?

    I currently have a 100GB hard drive I use for my windows operating system, and itunes uses this location to backup my various iphones, and ipads. However I don't have enough hard disk space to manage the backups. Is it possible to direct itunes to backup and ipad to an external hard drive?

    Yes. See this previous discussion. Some Googling is still required.

  • Got error code 50 in middle of phone syncing lost all back up data? How do I restore?

    while upgrading my wife's Verizon iphone to iOS5, on my macBook pro, at the very end of the restoring from back up, I got error code 50, then was asked to look for backup to restore to, only option was to back up from my phone.  All of her data is gone.  How do I restore that now?

    Restore the device again using the most recent backup.
    If there is no more recent backup and the pictures were not copied off the device prior to the original restore, they are gone.  Same goes for videos taken with the device.
    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service, simply sync them back. 
    Any content acquired from iTunes should be on iTunes on the computer, simply sync it back.

    How do I back up my iphone5 to my ICloud account, whqen iI have forgot my restrictions password. My restrictions pass code has my icloud a account greyed out? Can i backup to a wd external harddrive, or try to backup to a new mini-mac, I just purchased yesterday? This is my first iMac and IPhone5, so i am kinda out on my own, and can use some pointers!! My phone is full of pictures, and will not download anything, until i store my pictures somewhere!!

    If you don't remember your restrictions passcode, you will have to force the phone into recovery mode and restore it using iTunes. Do NOT restore your backup. The restrictions passcode is part of the backup.
    Everything on the phone will be lost.
    You can extract the photos from the camera roll the same way you would from any other digital camera. Having a restriction passcode set should not prevent that. do that before you put the phone in recovery mode and restore it.
