HT1766 How do I restore an iphone 4 from an older back up from my computer? I cannot see the restore file that I need but I know I did not delete it.

I have an iphone 4 and before I installed the new software I transferred all my pictures to my computer then deleted the pictures from my iphone to create space for the upgrade to iOS 7. I saw that I had a back up made in jan 2013. I then sinatlled the software and something went wrong because I had to connect to my computer to complete the process. I tyrie to back up from my old back up but I forgot the password. I did not have time to look for it so I started my phone as a new phone. I then at a later time attempted to restore my phone once I found the passord but my old restore file is not there anymore. Is there anyway to find this file on my computer and use it to resore my phone?

Connect your iPhone to Your computer and Sync it with iTunes. Then you can Restore your data.

How do I get my entire photo stream to my new iPad. I use my ICloud and some of them showed up but most if them did not. I am trying to sync the photos from my phone to an iPad 1 and iPad mini.

How do I get my entire photo stream to my new iPad. I use my ICloud and some of them showed up but most if them did not. I am trying to sync the photos from my phone to an iPad 1 and iPad mini.

Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

How to see the .AS file that .MXML file is translated to before being compiled to SWF?

I am trying to dynamically load some other Applications in
one Application, use ActionScript but not SWFLoader tag, it looks
like:
<mx:Application>
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
private var loader:SWFLoader = new SWFLoader();
private function loadSWF(url:String):void{
var baseURL:String = this.url.substr(0,
this.url.lastIndexOf("/"));
var url = baseURL + "/"+ name;
//even if I did not add any event listener!
loader.load(url);
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Button label="B" click="loadSWF('Top_2.swf');" y="10"
x="58"/>
</mx:Application>
then when me click the button, always occured an error like
this:(even if every method I add try...catch... )
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of
a null object reference.

however, if I use <mx:SWFLoader source="Top_2.swf" />
tag, there is no such problem! So I think it must be I didn't init
SWFLoader correctly!
I hope someone can tell me how to crrect this mistake
directly, but I more wish someone to tell me how to view the .as
file that the .mxml file translated to before being compiled to a
SWF( If there is a such step!)
Thanks!

Maybe the SWFLoader must be one child of one DisplayObject!??
I found when the swfloader is been added to some
DisplayObject in actionScript like below, the problem didn't occure
any more.
swfloader.visible = false;
this.addChild(swfloader); // 'this' is current Application
swfloader.addEventListener(".....", someHandler);
swfloader.load("someurl");
Why? Is this a bug or not?
I am still waiting someone to tell me where a .mxml file can
be translated to a .as file which could be visited!

HT1766 How can I have multiple iphones on itunes and prevent them from having the info from one ipone going to the other

How can I have multiple iphones on itunes without them sharing contact info

If contacts on each iPhone are being synced direct with the same supported address book app on the computer via the iTunes sync process, deselect Sync Contacts under the Info tab for the iPhones that you don't want synced with the same address book followed by a sync.
If each iPhone is sharing the same Apple iCloud account with Contacts enabled for over the air syncing, each iPhone needs its own iCloud account.

I restored my iphone then chose to back up from itunes and lost all my photos !

I restored my Iphone 4 and then chose to back up from itunes (as there where I have always backed up on to) I got all my apps back and contacts, but lost all my photos, wi-fi info and other little bits.
Does anyone know how to get them back at all?!??
Thank you so much

Something may be wrong with the backup in regards to texts and photos in the Camera Roll with your iPhone 4, but music is not included with the backup and the same for photos transferred from your computer.
The music should be in your iTunes library on your computer and any photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone 4 should remain on your computer.

How do I recover the original jpg photo files from my computer? They are embedded in the iPhoto Library and I cannot see the actual file.

I am trying to locate the original jpg or photo files that I uploaded from my camera. I know that the photos are there, because they show up in my iPhoto Library. Where can I go to find the original file ex: DSCN1242.jpg or OLM4564.jpg ?

Select the photo in iPhoto and use the command "File > Export" and set the "Kind" in the Export panel to "Original". That will write a copy of the original to a folder you can access in the Finder.
The command "File > Reveal in Finder" will show you the original inside the iPhoto Library, but you must not access the files this way. If you access them from other apps using the Finder, you will corrupt your library.
See Terence Devlin's user Tips:
iPhoto and File Management
How to Access Files in iPhoto
To what purpose do you need to find the files? Is there a problem and iPhoto giving an error message about missing originals?

IPhone 5S! I dropped my phone and now I cannot see the screen and i need to restore to original settings

When i dropped it, the screen went crazy and now I see a whole bunch of random colorful lines on the screen and I am unable to press anything. I want to restore the phone to factory settings, but when I connect to iTunes on my Mac, it is saying that I must enter the passcode, which I cannot do, because of the screen. It also says that I can't restore my iPhone because Find My iPhone is on. In order to turn it off I have to unlock my phone and turn it off through the phone but i can't!! Someone please help me

If you turned on Find My Phone in Settings > iCloud, login to your iCloud account, go to Find My Phone, select the iPhone and do a remote erase.
If you did not turn on Find My Phone there is nothing more you can do...take it to an Apple store genius bar for an out of warranty replacement, in the US that is $269.

How to restore my iPhone 3G, ios 3.1.3, from backup without updating.

How do I restore my iPhone 3G, ios 3.1.3, from a backup without updating. I need to restore my ical entries and they are wiped out on both my main and backup drive and mobile me. My phone is also wiped out and I think my back up may be my only hope of getting that info back. Every time I try to restore using itunes 5.1 itunes only shows me th option to restore and update. Not just restore. Will the option to just restore from the last backup present itself in the process or do I need to shift click or something? Thanks for your help...

Can't I fake it out so it just leaves my ios as it is but restores files and settings? ios 4 doesn't really work well with the 3G models. They get slow and buggy. Isn't there some way to just put the ipsw file somewhere and point to it? Or, is there a way to just rip the ical info outof the backup files. That would work to.

How can i restore my iPhone from an older back-up?

Hi there,
Recently, my iPhone 4 was restored by Apple. When I plugged my iPhone in to iTunes it automatically synced and did a back-up. It then restored my phone with the apps and music that were on my phone at the time of the last back-up, however not with the contacts or photos.
Is there any possible way to restore my iPhone with the photos and contacts that were on my phone at the time of the last back-up? Is there a way to restore your iPhone from an older back-up (not the latest one)? Please help!! PLEASE!!

Hi AnaMusic,
Thanks for your reply. I don't really understand your answer though. I plugged my iPhone into iTunes with the intention of restoring from my latest back-up as I have lost all my photos and contacts on my phone. However, when I plugged it in it automatically did a sync and a back-up. Now when I click restore from back-up it just restores to what I have on my iPhone now, because that was the latest back-up (it did it automatically). Do you understand what I mean?
What I am wondering is whether or not I am able to restore my contacts and photos from my last iTunes back-up (before today's one)?
Thanks.
P.S - My photos and contacts did not save to Address Book and iPhoto if that helps.

After I restored my ipad I chose itunes restore. now how can I get my info of which is backed up from icloud?.

hi all!
Reseting ipad, we are asked to restore info from icloud or itunes. If we choose icloud, the info will be restored, but the apps on the ipad should be downloaded from app. store! because icloud can't save the applications. and If we choose to restore with itunes, the apps will be loaded quickly ,But still we need our info in icloud. and if we go to icloud backup , from ipad settings, we just have one choice: back up now! that backs up the new info, not our backed up info. but we need our backed up info.
After I restored my ipad I chose itunes restore. now how can I get my info of which is backed up from icloud?

My friend wanted to get some music off my itunes
This is called "stealing". You do not have the legal right to give her the music you have in your iTunes library unless you are the copyright holder.
when syncing it it said she had to update her phone software first
That's not quite what it said. Someone should have paid more attention to the great big warning about the possibility of losing data if the phone wasn't backed up.
We cannot find her new photos. Please help and there was 100 new pics. Is there any way we can get them back. I already have the program Asoftech - but it doesnt seem to register the iphone only C and D drive. Please help!
It restored the backup that was made on your computer 6 months ago, which did not contain those photos. You're wasting your time trying to find them on the phone. They don't exist.
Hopefully, your friend syncs her phone to her own computer on a regular basis. She needs to plug her phone into her computer and restore it from her last backup. That will restore it to the state it was in when the backup was made.
She also needs to get in the habit of extracting the photos on a regular basis, like she would from any other digital camera.

HT1766 I backed up my iphone 3GS using itunes 10. on 27/12 and today 29/12 and would like to restore using 27/12 backup but cannot see option to choose that backup nor can I now see that backup.

I backed my iphone 3GS on 27/12 and did a synchronization today with itunes 10.. which automatically did a backup prior to carrying out the synch. I have just realised that I have lost my music as my music setting is defaulting to "selected playlist, artists, albums, and genres" and I am trying to restore using the backup I carried out on 27/12 but cannot see the option to choose that backup. When I right-click the device and choose restore from backup, there are two iphone names - admin iphone and admin iphone 29th Dec 11:14 and statement underneath - Last backed up today 11:34.
To restore I selected admin iphone and restore - should I have selected admin iphone 29th Dec?
Where can I find the backup I carried out on 27th and how can I use it to restore to it?
ta

Thanks for the info. No problem as I can sync my music to my iphone anyway - it is still available on my music library on itunes - did not want to sync entire library as it is massive now and for my ipod classic.
Other question - is it safe to update my iphone software to version 6.0.1 which keeps being prompted each time I connect my jailbroken 3GS iphone on itunes. I cannot install nor update a number of apps such as whats app, some games which I used to have on my iphone as each time I try to update or re-install, I am informed that I need IOS 4.3 or above.
thanks

I followed the steps to restore to factory settings now I can't get back my info from a prior backup. My pads screen was frozen on the connect to iTunes I needed to restore. I had to setup my pad as if it was new. How do I acess my prior backup

Once again, KP is correct, but I just want to add that if you don't see the backup in the drop down menu on the summary page of iTunes when you choose the restore from backup option, then the backup is unfortunately gone. If you backup your computer, the iPad backup should probably be in that computer backup. I use Time Machine with my MacBook Pro and can access backups from months ago.
On a side note, I also archive backups from time to time. If you right click on a backup name in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>Devices (Windows) or iTunes>Preferences>Devices (Mac) you can save that backup or archive it. It will be date and time stamped. I have no idea why I do this to the degree that I do it, but I probably have 12-14 iPad backups archived in iTunes.

How can I order an iphone 6 and pick it up from one of the apple stores in London. It doesn't work with reserve and pick up because the 64 gb is never in stock.
