  • Restoring my phone from backup. it wont complete.

    hi, ive been trying to restore my iphone 3gs from an itunes back up. it just keeps saying a longer time. it tried all night and ive started it again but the time estimated just keeps increasing. any help appreciated. thanx

    No matter how you restore, either from backup or as a new device, ALL current data on your phone will be erased. So, if you have data...photos...you don't want to lose, you need to first import these to your computer BEFORE you restore from backup.

  • What content will I loose if I restore my phone from backup?

    Is it guarenteed that everything will be brought back?

    If you restore from backup, ALL data, currently on your phone, will be erased. If you have any data that you want to save...pics, etc.,...you need to first import to your computer.

  • 7.2 upgrade: how to recover corrupted iTune library index file from backup?

    Hi folks,
    I upgraded to iTunes 7.2 and my library file (the xml one)
    got corrupted...
    My >40 GB of mysic seem to be on the safe side fortunately,
    same for a half way recent backup of the file
    iTunes Music Library.xml.
    Both sit on an external hard drive, while the corrupted files
    are on the main disk. Sounds not to bad, compared to what I read from others!
    Questions:
    1) How can I use my backuped XML index file to recover my playlists etc in iTunes? Unfortunately I only backuped this single index file, i.e. the "Music"
    one, yet not the other iTunes database file.
    2) Then, I had still made some modifications (mostly MP3 file tags)
    after the backup of the index file. I realized that while looking on
    the time stamps of the directories that contain my actual music.
    Do I need to do something to make these modifications visible
    in the recovered iTunes??
    Thanks for any useful hints in advance!!

    I solved my problem through a minor variation of this recipe:

  • Will restoring my phone from backup update ios?

    i have done a lot of research on this question but i keep getting mixed answers of people saying yes while others say no. i want to clear out "other" space on my iphone 4s 6.1.3, and i heard restoring it will clear up that space but i dont want to upgrade my ios to 7.
    If the answer is yes, will "erase all settings and data" upgrade ios too?

    And that's exactly the problem, because everyone should have their own account for iCloud. You can share an Apple ID for iTunes & App Store purchases, but you shouldn't do that for iCloud (Mail, Calendar, Contacts etc. ... ...and Photos). The problem of using the same account together could mean that only your dad's photos were stored.

    How to recover Passwords Plus data after installing Lion?

    While waiting for DataViz to rewrite the app, get another hard drive and install 10.6 on that; re-start from there, you can then open Passwords Plus. Use whatever method you like to copy the data. A bit of a chore yes, but I can't think of another way.
    There is in the AppStore Ascendo DataVault which performs the same function. I am going to wait a week for DataViz, then jump ship.

  • How do I restore iTunes library from Backup files on External Hard Drive?

    How do I restore iTunes library from Backup files on External Hard Drive and keep the new iTunes library on the External Hard Drive. I have all the media and playlist and .xml .itl files, just want the iTunes to recognise the content.
    I backedup my iTunes content by dragging to External Hard Drive. Formatted and reinstalled OS. My iTunes content is so large, that I wish for the Library and content to remain on the External Hard Drive. I have all the music files and playlists, I just cannot get the iTunes application to display all the content. Hoping to Not have to drag and drop all the content to be recopied into new iTunes organised files.
    Troubleshooting this by researching other conversations on the web, I have come stuck for a solution. One Troubleshoot told me to hold down the Command key and then lauch iTunes and a dialogue box will appear to Choose a new library, however when I try this, no Dialogue box appear to give me the option!?

    It sometimes has that funny switch symbol on it too.

  • I had to re-install XP on my laptop. I installed itunes. Now I want to restore my music from backup CD's. But the option device under file is greyed out. I can't select restore from backup. How do I make the restore option active. I have an ipod nano

    I think it's QuickTime player causing the problem, when I try to open it I get the windows error that an error has occured
    Let's try swapping out your QuickTime again, taking a few extra explicit precautions this time.
    Head into your Add/Remove programs. uninstall QuickTime.
    Next, we’ll manually remove any leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx. (If “Hide filename extensions for known file types” is enabled on the PC, then those two files will appear as “QuickTime” and QuickTimeVR”.)
    7. Restart your computer.
    Now download and save a copy of the latest standalone QuickTime installer to your hard drive. (We'll run the install from there rather than online.)
    Latest Quicktime Installers … get the one that doesn’t mention iTunes
    Switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install. Start the install by doubleclicking the QuickTimeInstaller.exe.
    If that install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching iTunes again. Does your iTunes launch properly now?
    (If you get an error message on the QuickTime uninstall or standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. Include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

    Sorry Raj,
    If you did not back up your information, and you have now restored your phone, then your information is not recoverable.
