HT4061 Did update on ipad1 and lost everything

How do I restore my iPad 1 to original settings? 

Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. That will wipe the iPad completely and you will have to start all over again.

  • I have updated my iPad and lost everything can you please help me?

    I have updated my iPad and lost everything because my only option on iTunes was to update and restore. The update was very strange because I pressed install, I had enough space for the update and I agreed to the terms and conditions. My iPad turned to a black page with a picture of connecting to iTunes, I couldn't get it off my screen even when I plugged it into iTunes. to update and restore my iPad was my only option and if I plugged my iPad out my screen would still say plug into iTunes. I haven't backed up my iPad for a few months but I need the most recent stuff on my iPad. I need my iPad for school. How do I fix this? And can Apple do anything to get it back? I am stressing out so much and I really need answers and I need them quickly. (Sorry if I sound rude but I'm freaking out about this)

    You should be able to see all your Purchased Music in your iTunes Account and you can download that Music to your iPhone during a Sync.  First step look under Purchases in iTunes.

  • Updated my phone and lost everything how do I get it back?

    How do I recover my contacts, songs etc.

    All of your data should be backed up in your iTunes library. So just plug in your phone and sync and all the data should go right into the phone again.

  • I updated to Ff4 and lost everything saved in scrapbook - can it be recovered?

    I had been using the scrapbook plugin because I could not add to bookmarks. When I updated to Ff4, the scrapbook plugin was gone. I added it back but none of the previously saved info. was there - I had a lot of info. that I would like to recover. Any ideas?

    Do you have the latest version of that extension installed? 1.4.3?

  • Updated 3GS to 5.0.1 and lost EVERYTHING

    I feel sick.
    I just updated my 3GS to 5.0.1 and lost everything. It went through the process of backing up before updating. However when I clicked 'Restore from backup' and went through the motions, I had no text messages, no photos, no contacts, no entries in my calender. I feel like I have lost a big chunk of my life.
    What did I do wrong?! I'm pretty tech savvy and have even saved my laptop from a virus by manually removing it etc. I have previously backed up/updated and restored with no trouble.
    Now I'm left with a phone with absolutely nothing on except all my apps. On one of the restores it puts my contacts on, but they're all in the wrong order, it's ordering them by second name and I can't even get that to change?
    Wish I had never bothered updating! Lost a lot of setimentel texts, information and all my dates for everything and appointments are all lost.
    If anyone has a clue what i can do it would be so much appreciated. I have searched for similar probalems but not found a solution :-(

    If you have been using your phone as recommended, you should have minimal data loss from the inability to restore from a backup.
    Contacts and calendars should be synched to a computer application like Outlook or Address Book (or a cloud service like Google Contacts or iCloud).  The update process does NOT affect these computer applications so your contacts and calendars should be safe and sound in the application ready for synching back to your phone.
    Same for photos.  It is recommended that photos be imported to your computer as soon as possible after taking them (just as you would import them from any other camera) for storage, archival and safekeeping.  Again, your photos should be safe and sound on your computer.
    If you've not been using your computer as recommended, you've learned a very hard lesson, I'm afraid.

  • HT204266 Updated and lost EVERYTHING! How do I get my data back??

    Updated to iOS 6.1.2 and lost EVERYTHING!  Apps, files, notes, 6 months of data tracking all gone and MUST have for work.  Lost some apps that iTunes doesn't have listed anymore, nor are they showing up in my purchased apps.  Again, I need these for work!

    Yeah, I tried that.  I get this dumb "supervised by another computer" message and it won't even let me connect it to the computer. 

  • I have a iPhone 4 s I did the software update ages ago and lost my camera roll then did the update and they all came back then on Christmas eve they have all gone !!

    THis is now the 5 th time I have written this !!!
    I have a iPhone  4s i did the software update ages ago and lost the camera roll .....then I did the update and all my photos returned ...now on Christmas eve they all dissapeared
    I now just albums .... All Photos  but that only has 77 photos ,  and that's it over 1000 photos have just gone ??
    PLease help me !!

    Why should we care how many times you've written this?  Are you making multiple threads?  Are they being deleted by the Hosts?
    Did you make a backup of your iPhone before you updated the iOS?
    Did you import the photos to your computer?
    Were the photos in the Camera Roll, Photo Stream or synced iTunes albums?

  • I had my Ipod touch 4gen on itunes of computer that crashed. On new computer i updated it, hit the wrong button, and lost everything. How do i get my old songs, apps, and account money back?

    I had my ipod 4gen itunes on a computer that crashed. With the new computer I update it to the lastest version. I hit the wrong transfer button and lost everything. How do I get my old songs, apps, and money back from my old account, if thats possible?

    I cant find any of my recently bought songs or the apps i have purchased. When I was updating my ipod there was a button that asked about transfering purchases and I didnt read it, and I didnt update manually so i think thats why i lost everything. I clicked on the intrustions and clicked on apps and i coulnt find any of my old stuff.

  • I recently updated my iphone and lost all my media and contacts as my computer did not save them how do i get them back

    i recently updated my iphone and lost all my media as my computer did not have enough memory to restore and an error occured. How do i get them back.

    Media and contacts are NOT part of the iPhone backup. Media should already be in your iTunes library and contacts should be in whatever address book or cloud service you were syncing them to. Just re-sync them to the phone.

  • HT4623 Updated my iPhone 3gs yesterday (1st time ever).  Backing up content to icloud but would not quit.  Screen would not disappear.  Finally disconnected phone from computer and lost EVERYTHING.  Can I get it back?

    Updated my iPhone 3gs yesterday to ios 6 (first time ever).  Backed up my content to icloud, but it wouldn't quit.  Remained on that screen for HOURS.  Finally disconnected phone from computer.  Still would not go away--just the "circle of death."  Restarted phone and lost EVERYTHING (pics, contacts and apps).  Can I get them back?  Are they somewhere out in cyberspace or lost for good?

    You're not alone. I am having similar problems with my Ipod 5th gen 30gb.
    When I connect it to my laptop (Vista - basic) it is not recognised by itunes. Itunes simply locks up.
    So far I have tried the following to no avail:
    Checked my pc's device manager - it recognises the device and says it is functioning properly.
    Checked the drivers to make sure they are upt to date.
    Uninstalled & reinstalled a previous version of itunes (as it worked fine before the latest release).
    Reinstalled the latest itunes.
    Reset the ipod.
    Put the ipod into disk mode and reconnected to itunes.
    Have tried to use the windows tool to scan and fix any bad sectors but it fails to complete a scan without locking that up as well.
    Placed into disk mode when fully charged and then allowed the battery to drain completely. Then reconnected ipod (in disk mode)and it still is not recognised and locks up itunes.
    At this point I dont really want to part with another $300 odd dollars for a new one.

    What did you update with what?  Are we talking a computer?  A device like an iPhone?  You updated iTunes?  You updated the operating system?
    If you updated the iOS on a device, I believe it warns you it will erase the device and you should make a backup first.  Restore from the backup.
    iPhoto is an application pretty much separate from iTunes.  There is an iPhoto forum if you are having problems with that application.

  • HT1222 I've held back on updating to ios7 on my iPad because when I I updated my phone I lost everything and had to go to an apple store. Will this happen to iPad? Can anyone advise me please?

    There shouldn't be any problem but, if you are worried, do a backup before the update.

  • I sync'd my phone to a different computer and lost everything

    I sync'd my phone to my work computer and lost everything. I have everything backed  up on my computer at home. How do I restore my contacts, apps, calendar, mail,  pics, ect?

    Thanks for the link Eric - I guess I should have been more clear on my response. I also sync to two different computers, but for two different things - one is for photos, and the other is for everything else. I did not know, however, that you could actually sync music from two different computers....
    I'm thinking that I have the Manually Manage option on so it does not automatically start syncing when I connect, but didn't know that one could drag and drop songs rather than just clicking on the Sync button when ready to sync....
    Thanks for the education!
    Cheers,

  • I have restored my iphone and lost everything

    I have restored my iphone and lost everything.  I have stuff on there now from 2011.  Is there anything I can do to get my stuff back
    Thanks

    Look... I don't have my crystal ball handy. I don't know how or if you had your backup set up. You don't adequately describe what you're missing. Stating that "All I am left with is the content I had before I upgraded to iOS" doesn't tell me anything at all... When did you upgrade? Apparently, you had a backup from that time, and when you restored, you restored from that backup. If you had no other backups in between then and now, then anything since that time is gone. Permanently.
