i updated and LOST all my photos, voicemails, texts. I am devastated!!! Please help
Did you backup your phone prior to updating your IOS? IF you did then you can restore from that backup, see link

Also photos should be imported to your computer as you would a digital camera

Downloaded and installed 5.0.1, killed my phone, finally able to restore but lost all apps, photos, etc. help. Everything I need is on my iTunes page but I cannot sync with iPhone4. Any ideas how I can sync?
If your phone is in recovery mode, you've already lost ALL of the data on the phone. Your only choice now is to restore it from your most recent backup. You follow this by syncing your content back to your phone. Any data, on your phone, not backed up or in supported applications on your computer, is gone. iTunes content you can re-download for free.

Changed Password but lost all my photos and itunes ! Help !
Hi.
I have been storing my music and photos on my powerbook G4 for a year when I finally got around to changing my password (by inserting the Start-up disk and going to Systems and Resetting Password). In a burst of enthusiasm, I also then changed the name of the user. I then logged back in (with my new password and username) but found to my dismay that itunes and iphoto are now empty !!! Disaster !
The things I previously loaded on my hard-drive (e.g. applications) are still there, so I am wondering whether my music and photos are also still lurking around? Does anyone know what I have done wrong and how I can get back my music and photos?
Many thanks !

Powerbook 17 inch Mac OS X (10.3.8)I would try and change the username back to what you had it.

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 muchSomething 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. -
When I updated to iOS 8.3 I lost all shared photo albums on my iPad Air. Other devises which I shared to still have access to photo albums but my iPad does not, therefore I can no longer add or delete to shared albums. I can create new shared albums.
Hello JimS19,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If you are having issues accessing your Shared Albums from your iPad (but not from your other devices), you may want to double-check your iCloud Photo Sharing configuration as outlined in the following articles, just to make sure it hasn't changed:

HT4623 Recently updated my iphone 5 with IOS7 and lost all my photos - Help!?
Hi, I'm wondering if anyone might be able to help? I updated my Iphone 5 with this IOS7 update a few days ago and seem to have lost all my photos. I tried a 'Restore' and then 'Back up from restore' in itunes but the phone kept going round in circles. It kept asking me [on the iphone] to select either 'Set up as new phone' or 'Restore from icloud' or 'Restore from itunes back up.' I chose 'Restore from backup' every time and just as I thought it had finished, it asked me to do the whole process over again. This happened several times. In the end I chose to 'Set up as new iphone' and then I was able to do a restore but the photo's never appeared. I did get all my Apps, Music and Contacts back on the phone.
I spoke with Apple today and they seem to think I didn't do a backup before updating to IOS7. Normally my itunes automatically does a sync and a back up when I connect the phone and I will get a warning message to prompt me if not. I've searched for the photo's in my Pictures folder on my lap top but they are not there. I don't use icloud [don't quite understand it but I'm getting there!] and the Apple advisor checked my Apple account and couldn't find any of the photos there. I've even tried to download a program to scan my phone for lost items but there's still no photos showing up.
Have I lost these photos for good or is there any way of getting them back?
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks
JaneJust to add to my enquiry above...
I have downloaded a couple of these programmes which say they can help scan for missing photos. One of the programs scanned my itunes and found photos from a back up this August. I could see quite a few photos on there [the ones that I'm missing] but these programs only let you down load 2 files [photos] unless you register with them i.e I will have to pay.
So why isnt this back up for August showing up in the list 'restore from back up' when I'm connected to my itunes??
Its so frustrating knowing that the majority of the photos I'm missing are actually still there somewhere. Why do i have to pay another provider to get them back?? -
I have updated my iPhone to iOS6.1.3 today and lost all my photos and some data(messageies) I have tried iTunes back up but still not success, please help.
If your messages and photos weren't part of your backup, then they're gone.
Certainly you weren't foolish enough to update the iOS on your phone before importing your photos off your phone for safe keeping on your computer like you would do with any digital camera, were you? -
Updating to iPhoto 9.5.1 lost all my photos. How can I retreive them?
Updating to iPhoto 9.5.1 lost all my photos. How can I retreive them?
I'm on a MacBook Pro using OS X version 10.9.5.
When I attempted to edit a photo in the version I had at the time, I got a message that I must update to iPhoto 9.5.1 to use that function. So I did so. When I reopened iPhoto, all my photos were gone. I looked for them in finder but found none of my photos there in the iPhoto library either.
My Time Machine backup, directs me back to iPhoto.
I just want to re-load my photos. Can you help?What do you see when you launch iPhoto? How big is your iPhoto library? Where is it located?
Directions for using Time Machine to restore are at the bottom of this article - Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support
And note you NEVER use the finder to access your photos - you only access them using the proper tools - How to Access Files in iPhoto

After downloading iOS 8, I lost all my pics. Last i checked, all of them were in photo stream. I cleared my camera roll to install the update but now all the pics are gone. My phone says there is about 700+ photos but only 300+ are displayed.
You might have to restore the pictures from your ""backup" you have on iCloud. But, then again, that would put your iPhone back to the last state it was in when doing that backup. But at least you would have all your pictures back.
iin any case, I wouldn't do any further backups or any changes to your iCloud account, until you've got your pictures back again. Proceed cautiously and carefully at this point, until you get an answer that will safely restore the pictures. -

You can only import photos from the camera roll into the computer. Is that the album that you are seeing?
Any albums that you create on the device itself (the iPad that is) cannot be transferred to your computer. iPad created albums do not contain copies of your photos but merely pointers to those photos so they do not actually exist in those albums. -
I plugged my phone ino my computer to download more music and it said I had an update, so I hit the update button and it said I had to restore the phone to factory settings. I tried turning it off and getting out of the screen, but it wouldn't allow me to do anything other than restore. Now I lost all my photos and music = can I get anything back?

i was on windows 7 and i had to format my computer i put windows vista on and when i downloaded itunes and sync my iphone i lost all my photos music and apps that was on my phone,my itunes account says i have got to accounts on two computers?? is there anyway i can get anything back? please help me. i have tried restore to back up but it is the same????
If they really meant that much to you, they would have been copied off to a computer at the earliest possible opportunity.
I personally find it amazing that people get so upset when pictures "accidentally" get deleted and then scream about how important they are. You wouldn't leave important paper work lying around to be lost/damaged/stolen, so why take a chance with important pictures on a device that can so easily be lost/damaged/stolen, or deleted by a child. -
i synced my iphone 5 with my computer and save all the photos to my phone through itunes. i restored my mac and lost all my photos on the mac but i still have them on my phone. how do i get them on my new mac now?
how do i get them on my new mac now?
Be careful, when you connect the iPhone to your mac, unless you have saved the photos. Synced photos may easily be accidentally deleted by syncing again. And do not enable iCloud Photo Library (Beta), that will erase synced photos as well. Synced Photos are not included in the device backups.
Set your iTunes Preferences to "Devices > Prevent iPos, iPhones, iPads from syncing automatically". Otherwise iTunes may launch and sync your iPhone with an empty iPhoto library the moment you connect it.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to sync the synced photos back. Apple recommends to mail them back, but that would be a lot of clicking (iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support). You could also share them to a Shared Album, but a third party app like TD recommended, will be better. -
I updated my ipod touch 4th gen to ios 5 and lost all my photos. how can i get it back? i'm using windows 7. help please? thanks!
This was the scenario:
The first time I updated, it was only my music that was lost.
When I got my music back, I lost my apps.
When I got my apps back, my contacts, notes and photos were lost.
Now I got back everything except for my photos.
(Yes, I restored from backup several times since the first update.)
Do you think if I try restoring from back up, my photos that were taken from my ipod will be restored finally?
Thank you.
