    I just updated my Q5 to BB 10.3 this morning and of course I didn't have enough space so I did a full back-up by BB Link and then wiped the device and made the back up.
    after that I tried to do the restore by BB Link but it didn't work, it's gives me error as the following:
    "Unable to save name
    An error occurred while saving devie name. If the error persists reconnect your device and try again."
    PLEASE HELP me in solving this problem !!!or how I could be back to BB 10.2 to get my data back !!

  • HT1766 Manually restore data from iTunes to iPhone

    My 64 gb iphone 5 had the sleep button defect, and it is being fixed free. They gave me a 16 gb replacement to use until mine is back from being repaired. I backed up my 64 gb to itunes before I let them send it in, but when I try to put everything on the replacement 16 gb, it is to much data and I can not find where I can manually choose what I restore (such as just contacts). That is what I need help with.
    However, I want to MAKE SURE that if I restore (only contacts) on this lended iphone, that it will NOT overwrite my original backup on the 64 gb iphone because then I would lose the data that won't fit on the 16 gb. I set the lended iphone up as a new iphone to ensure that it should have seperate backup than my 64 gb iphone, but I wasn't sure if it would overwrite my 64 gb backup once I manually restored it.
    If anyone could help, I would realy appreciate it.

    No, you've got it right. I used the Restore feature in iTunes to wipe my iPhone. From there, i restored the latest backup (Last Synced- Today) as opposed to creating it as a new device. Now, I want to put the synced data that is in iTunes back onto my iPhone.
    What I am worried about is that by pressing "Sync," the data in iTunes will be replaced by the data - or lack there of - on my device. Basically, I want to make sure that by pressing "Sync," my iTunes data isn't going to be deleted.
    Thanks for all the help Dave, sorry this is so confusing

  • Restoring data problem!

    Hi!
    I already did a backup file for my old iphone4 16G but then iTunes has restored (From the same backup file I did) all data into my new iphone5 32G (my conacts, my only 5 apps!) except my 470 photos! Why?! Where they gone?! What should i do now? Please!
    Notice that the processing of restoring my new iphone5 takes around 2 houres! which means that my large photos data are still in the iTunes! (In the backup file I did).

    Take a look at http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB36134
    It doesn't refer to the first error, but it does the second.

  • Restore data problem

    My 32GB IPhone 4S was stolen and replaced with new 16 GB IPhone 5S. I backed up my information of 4S (about 12GBs) in ITunes but realised that new 5S only has capacity of 12.8GB (not really 16GB). Due to the capacity limit, I was unable to restore. Advise needed. Thank you in advance for your kind assistance.

    There isn't anything that you can do about restoring the backup of the larger phone to a smaller phone. You cannot select certain things to restore from the backup. It is either all or none. You would have to sync data over from iTunes, etc. individually to the smaller phone.

  • IPod touch 3 volume and date problem

    My cousin was using my iPod touch 3 when she came to visit. Now she's gone only one side of the volume works in earbuds which is the right. without earuds it sounds like the left side. Also the date and time keeps missing up. ex. my iPod touch 4 ran out battery this morning so I used my ipod touch 3. it said it was 10 minutes behind on normal time ,and that it was Jan,7 1972. It'll be fine for the next hour or less then flip back to the date.
    Any suggestions?
    ~thanks

    The iPod only has one speaker so there is no left or right.
    - Have yu tried another pair of headphones to determine if you have an iPod or headphone problem.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod
    If still problem that indicates a problem with the iPod, likely the headphone jack is bad.

  • IPod Restoration problems Error 1413

    I am having problems restoring an iPod to factory defaults. I wanted to do this just to wipe everything off of the 8GB nano before I gave it to my girlfriend for X-Mas.
    I loaded it with music and photos and enabled it to be used as a hard drive. Through iTunes I went and deleted all the music and photos from the iPod. I then opened up the ipod in Windows Explorer and deleted the files that I transfered from my computer to another.
    When I tried to restore it, it gave me an error 1413. I was able to find this information on it.

    I downloaded the latest version of iTunes already. I havent had a chance to try solution 2 but I tried solution 3 and it didnt work. If solution 2 doesnt work what else can I try? Could I just go to the iPod through Windows explorer and delete the folders on the iPod and then try to update it?
    Acer Aspire AMD Sempron , 512MB, 60GB,15.4" Widescreen, XP Home Edition Notebook, AS3004WLCi - LX.A5505.A74   Windows XP  

    IT WORKED! I uninstalled Spycatcher, rebooted, uninstalled iTunes and Quicktime, made sure that all the files were deleted, rebooted again and re-installed iTunes and quicktime and I was able to restore the ipod with no problems at all. Thanks for all the help. I really do appreciate this. Now that I know this I will have to make sure when my girlfriend tries to load iTunes on her laptop that she gets rid of spycatcher first.

  • Does restoring your iPod solve the problem with the updater?

    I have a fourth generation iPod and I downloaded the 10-12-2005 updater. Since then my click wheel will not work, but all the buttons on my iPod still work. I have looked through the discussions and many other people have this same problem, but i have not found any solution. Will restoring my iPod solve this problem? I want to be sure before I erase everything.

    The music will come of your iPod but STAY on your computer. Documents that are on your iPod should be backed up because they will be deleted as well. Check the link below if you need more help.

    No. In fact, my ipod detects the livebox and the network but I can not connect to the internet.

    Not much you can do.  You overwrote your current data with older data when you restored the phone from that backup.  Your data's gone.

  • Will Time Machine restore software problems as well as data?

    Hi all -
    I've got a 20" aluminum (2007) iMac with Leopard (all updates installed) and Time Machine. I'm having a shutdown problem that I'm trying to resolve. Yesterday, the computer started powering itself off randomly, as if someone pulled the power plug. I ran both the quick and extended Apple Hardware Tests, and both came up clean (no errors). I'm thinking this may be a software problem.
    I'd like to reload Leopard to clean up the software. However, I already tried doing a Restore via Time Machine yesterday, and the problem did not go away. I restored to the previous day - prior to when the shut downs started happening.
    My question is - If I reload Leopard using the "Restore" feature of Time Machine, does that also copy any problems I had backed up in software to the reloaded system? My guess is yes, since all of my applications remain intact after the Time Machine Restore.
    That said, I find Time Machine to be absolutely brilliant in its simplicity and functionality, and think it should be in every single computer user's hands.
    At any rate, I'm fearing that I'm going to have to do a clean install and then reinstall all of my software manually to get a truly clean system, then restore data manually via my Time Machine backup. I hope I'm wrong.
    Can anybody shed some light? Thanks,
    Shelly

    it really does back up almost everything, even broken files. Go back to the initial backup and restore from that. If that doesn't fix it, you've got hardware problems.
    Crashes are one thing, hangs another, but actual shutdowns where the computer just goes completely off really indicate hardware problems. Software by itself won't do that, even if it's broken.

  • New Ipod Classic syncing problems, restoring problems

    Hello,
    Just got my 80gb Ipod Classic yesterday, and have had syncing problems, and now Itunes does not recognize it at all.
    I'm using the latest version of Itunes (7.6.2.9)
    Ipod Firmware 1.1.2 (or whatever the newest is)
    Windows XP Pro
    I'm a long-time user of a 5g 30gb Ipod and never have had issues like this. I am syncing to the same Itunes library as my old Ipod. Connecting my new Ipod Classic, I updated the firmware, and tried to sync. Halfway through the sync, I got an error. I disconnected the ipod and reset it. I tried syncing again, and again it would hang at some point, had to disconnect, and then it said my ipod had no music, but with 60gb free only. So obviously a database problem on the ipod and some mp3 files that my new ipod classic didn't like (though my old 5g ipod has no problem with this library).
    Next, I connected and did a Restore.
    I removed the culprit mp3 files from Itunes Library, attempted to sync again. Again, it would freeze at some point during sync. Had to disconnect Ipod while Itunes was frozen. Again, Ipod says has no music but with only about 60gb free.
    So Ipod is corrupted again. The problem is when I connect it to my PC, Itunes no longer recognizes it, so I can't do a Restore. What do I do?

    Just wanted to post my results, for future users benefit:
    Putting my Ipod into Disk Mode, connected to computer, Itunes recognized it, performed a Restore.
    Still had syncing/freezing issues.
    Decided that my Itunes library database was corrupted. Went into My Documents > My Music, and deleted the Itunes Folder, except for the containing Artwork Folder.
    Have been rebuilding my Library from scratch since, and have had no syncing problems yet again.
    Only problem is that in the outermost Podcast menu, it is always empty. The only conveninent way to access my Podcasts is to make a playlist and put them all in it.

  • HT1766 how to restore data file from back up on iPhone 5 docs to go

    how to restore data file from back up on iPhone 5 docs to go

    If it backed up the lock file, then Lightroom was open when Time Machine ran, and the backup therefore may be corrupted.  You could try restoring that backup (without overwriting your week ago version) and see if it'll open.  If it does, you're off and running.  What methods have you tried?

  • I had to restore my ipod restore but erase all data

    i had to restore my ipod restore but erase all data

    If you do not know your Restrictions pass code you have tow alternatives:
    - Restore the iPod from a backup that was made before you added the Restrictions passcode (or from a backup that you remember the passcode).
    - Restore the iPod to factory settings/new iPod.
