HT201263 What can i do if i dont want to restore it?
I opened setting on my iphone and found that there is a new software update. so i downloaded it. And my phone went off just like normal when i update. but this time they said i have to connect it to iTunes when it opened. So when i connected it to iTunes it said that i have to restore it, but i dot want to delete anything on it, what should i do?
There is nothing that you can do if you want the phone to work again. It's too late to worry about backing up and losing everything now. That's why it's important to backup on a regular basis.You don't have to restore the phone, but it will be a very expensive paperweight unless you bite the bullet and restore.

I updated my iphone 5 and now it is telling me to be able to work i had to connect it to itunes and itunes it telling me that i have to restore my iphone. what can i do? i dont want to lose all my pictures and stuff like that.
Something went wrong with the update, this can and does happen with every version of iOS.
There is nothing wrong with the update.
Simply restore the device via iTunes on the computer.
If iTunes is stating it will take hours to update, that indicates an extremely slow Internet connection and is likely the reason the OTA update failed. -

- If you can't get it out of recovery you will have to restore the iPod.
- I would tyr another computer to help determine if you have a problem with the iPod causing it not be be scene in iTunes or problem with your computer. -

If you are getting emails from these forums then you probably accidentally clicked on one of the links on the forums page where all the questions are listed e.g. at the top right of each forum's page there is text box with Actions and Notifications in :
So far you've posted in the iTunes Store forum :
https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes/itunes_store#/
And the Using iPad forum :
https://discussions.apple.com/community/ipad/using_ipad#/
If on either of those forums that box says 'stop email notifications' instead of 'receive' then click on it and it should stop that forum sending emails to you.
There are full instructions on this page for stopping emails, as there are other places where they might have been set 'on' : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3661

I'm trying to sync my old ipad to itues on my laptop but it keeps saying ipad synced with another iTunes library what can I do I don't want to lose these photos?
You can only sync an ipad to one computer at a time.
You can look to something like dropbox, upload your photos there, then do the sync and since your photos are backed up it won't hurt if they are deleted. -

I forgot my passcode and I dont want to restore it because I have no back up. Help?
Hello,
I recently changed my passcode and i instantly forgot it as i tried to unlock my iphone.
And I honestly dont want to restore it, because I will lose everything, especially my 3,000 photos and I cant risk that.
I havent used my iphone for days, because i rather have it like this than restore it and lose everything. I am waiting for a solution.
So what can I do?
Please, I cant lose everything!
Is there a way to hack it or something like that?
Like hacking my photos and then restore it?
All im asking, is there any possible way i can get my stuff back, most importantly my photos.
Please Help!
I've heard I can get my iphoned unlocked.
P.S I have my phone now on, "connect to itunes"

You've already lost ALL data on your phone. There is nothing to recover. -
i am upgrading my 2008 macbook to an ssd drive and want to save my settings. how do i save then? I have my files backed up with time machine ,but dont want to restore all files ,as there might be some junk backed up too. Help will be appretiated
When you restore from a Time Machine back up you can pick and chose what is restored. It is not an all or nothing process. Nor do you have to do the partial restores all at the same time. If days after the first partial restore you find something else you want you can restore just that.
