  • My question is about the 'Restore Backup' option on iTunes (Not 'Restore iPhone'). So, if I click on Back Up Now, then 'Restore Backup', would that go through the process of erasing everything on my phone as new then restore whatever iTunes has backed up?

    My question is about the 'Restore Backup' option on iTunes (Not 'Restore iPhone'). So, if I click on Back Up Now, then 'Restore Backup', would that go through the process of erasing everything on my phone as new then restore whatever iTunes has backed up?
    I do not want this to happen, as with previous experience iTunes doesn't restore a mirror of what the iPhone was when it was backed up as is the case with iCloud backups.
    What I am trying to do is, as I've found a method on Youtube, there is an application where I can delete all the multimedia saved in my 'iMessages' so clear up some space. As doing that manually through the phone would take a lifetime. The method is to backup on iTunes, then using the backup created, importing that into the application then deleting the messages through that then restoring the phone using that amended backup.
    So back to my question, would restoring through 'Restore Backup' just restore the backup internally or would it flush the entire phone and then restore the backup? And if it does so, what would be lost in the restore?
    Thank you all,
    Fahmid

    iCloud should overwrite your phone with the data stored in your account, preserving your newer data.  However, to be sure I would go to Settings>iCloud and turn data syncing to Off before restoring the backup.  Then, after restoring the backup, turn the data syncing back to on, and when prompted about Merging with iCloud, choose Don't Merge.  This will ensure that the data in your iCloud account overwrites the data on your phone (which is your goal).
    Also, you don't sync text messages with iCloud so you will end up losing your more recent messages when they are overwritten by the backup.

  • I want to do a factory restore on my iphone 4s but I do not want to the iOS6. If I back up, can then restore backup and keep iOS5 since a factory restore will automatically upgrade me?

    Found the answer myself. Thanks for the help!

  • Can you restore to factory from a different computer then restore backup from the original computer?

    My son reset then forgot his passcode, when I try to restore from his computer his pc freezes. I have tried several times and continues to freeze. He does not want to lose his contacts, purchased songs and apps but all else does not really matter.
    So, am I able to restore his touch from my computer then restore the backup from his computer?  It did complete the backup on his PC.
    Please help, we have been messing with this for a few weeks now and I am just tired of trying to restore when his pc keeps freezing...

    Yes, just plug in into iTunes and it'll give you the option to restore as a new device..

  • Unable to switch/open/close apps, shutdown or backup - HELP

    Hi guys,
    I'm not so much of a newbie, but I'm kind of lost here and I need your help. I'm working on a MacBook Pro with Leopard.
    *Weird Behavior:*
    - I cannot open applications (no response when clicking on dock's icons).
    - I cannot close applications (no response when right-clicking on dock's icons).
    - When I click commandoptionesc, nothing is listed in the "force quit application" window.
    - I cannot switch between applications. Command+tab won't work. Expose` won't function. I can continue to work only in the active window.
    - The top menu bar stays on the last active application, and stops responding (no response even when clicking on the apple). After few clicks on it, it disappears.
    - I cannot restart, shutdown or log out.
    - My only option in this situation is to do "hard reset" by holding the power button for a few seconds.
    *When this behavior occurs:*
    *1. Connecting external Hard Drive*
    I have an external HD, 250 Gb, connected via USB. I've been using it for a few months with Time Machine, as my backup volume. Suddenly this week, this "weird behavior" started occurring every time after I connected the drive (maybe when TM got into action). At first I assumed it was caused by a malfunction with the drive itself, so I formatted it. Didn't help. Whenever I try to backup - it fails to pass 46.8 Mb, and the "weird behavior" starts occurring again.
    *2. Starting DiskWarrior*
    So I decided to preform some checks on my internal HD. I installed DiskWarrior, but when tried to run it, the moment it asked for administrator password - "weird behavior" started and I couldn't type the password (another of its symptoms).
    My only option was to burn DiskWarrior on CD and boot from it. I did, and indeed it found some errors on my internal HD and rebuild the directory. It didn't find any problems in my external HD, as it is still formatted (blank). I thought maybe now the problem got solved, but then again - no. Still, trying to open DiskWarrior, trying to use Time Machine - all cause this weird behavior.
    *3. Starting SuperDuper*
    I came to a conclusion that I need to reinstall Leopard, but I still needed to backup my system, and since Time Machine was not an option, I tried to use SuperDuper. But here again - when pressing the "Copy" button in the software, it asks for an administrator password, and weird behavior happens again, and I can't type the password (or do anything else but hard reset again).
    So, something is definitely wrong with the system, but without performing backup, I can't reinstall Leopard.
    I would appreciate getting your thoughts/suggestions, especially if anyone else has ever got into this weird behavior, and maybe found a way to solve it.
    thanks,
    -Omri

    Install OS X on another hard drive. Hopefully you have one.
    Put Disk Warrior and SuperDuper there.
    It sounds like a problem that has existed with Leopard, more often back in 10.5.0/.1 but also seems to be back now with 10.5.4 judging by the threads, with USB devices, hubs, and cables. When FW doesn't work, usually USB does; but, when USB doesn't... try FW interface.
    Beware of which USB/FW drive case enclosure you buy. Try these would be my suggestion:
    http://www.macsales.com/firewire in bare case (transfer your drive) or full drive + case.
    When you hard restart, the directory, journal, cache folders, and whatever files are open at the time in memory and have changes not written to disk can be damaged, corrupt.

    Hey ChrisJ4203, thanks for answering buddy , I still have a question.
    I have a passcode for my iPhone, but I don't have the application Find my iPhone. Can I retrieve my photos, notes, reminders and all other data in my iPhone, I mean, if I bought another one, and connect it to my computer and go to iTunes then restore backup, cause I backup my iPhone last Oct 10, 2013, will I recover all the details in my iPhone that was stolen? It's like I'm still using my old iPhone's apps but with a new iPhone. Thanks.

  • Backup with iOS6, restore iPhone, restore backup -- will I end up with iOS6 or iOS7?

    If I backup my iPhone5 that currently has iOS6, restore the iPhone, then restore backup -- will I end up with iOS6 or iOS7?  When I click "restore iPhone", a message appears that says the latest software will be installed.  I don't want iOS7 (yet).

    Backups are data only, not iOS.
    A restore will always be the current version of iOS for the device.

  • Help please! Restore Backup deleted my most recent data

    Hi,
    Desparately need help please!
    I accidentally deleted a note that was quite important, though not the end of the world if I lost it. Then I looked at iTunes and there's the 'Restore Backup' button under 'Backups'. So I thought, OK why don't I try click that and see if the note is in the back up.
    But after clicking it, without asking for confirmation it just went ahead and restored my iPhone to a very old state. So my recent photos, notes, etc, now all disappeared! Only the apps appear to be merged - so my recently deleted apps came back and my existing ones are still there as well. I was hoping for the notes and photos the restore process would do the same but apparently not.
    Is there any way I can revert this restore process so I can go back to the state before I did the restore?
    Thanks in advanced for any help.

    Just update your replacement phone to the latest iOS in iTunes.  (Connect it to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of the phone in iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Check for Update.  You may receive a prompt when you launch iTunes that an update is available; if so, update from there.)  When given the options, set it up as a new iPhone.
    Then eject it from iTunes, disconnect it from your computer, go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup.  You should be able to restore from your backup now.  Be sure your phone is connected to wifi and your charger and this will take some time to finish.

  • Friend deleted app (my disk for iphone) and need to get back data from my icloud backup...need help!

         I had this app called my disk (app store name is: Lock photo+video safe - secure folder manager to protect private photos vault & hide secret picture file privacy) This app lets me have two passwords with different pictures and videos in each of them. It's a really great app.
         My friend deleted the app by "accident" and I need to get the app back with all my data. I have a backup of the app on my icloud backup that was taken place two months ago (around same time the app was deleted). It shows up in the cloud saying I have 4gb worth of that app in the cloud. I restore my phone back to that backup but the app data is not there. I wasn't sure if I had to wait till my iphone backs up everything (like music and pictures for example) for it to show up but as soon as the app downloaded I opened it hapilly knowing I have my data back but unfortunately it was not there. In the app itself, there's an option to backup from the cloud but it just brings up this window that says you can back up from the cloud (doesn't have a place to hit that says restore or anything).
         Is there something I am doing wrong? Can anyone help me? I really need that app data back because I have pictures of memories with friends and family inside that app that I do not have anywhere else. Once i get the back back ill be sure to save the photos onto my computer just incase anything goes wrong again.
    Thanks everyone for the help!

    fwiw
    It seems that in a case like this you'd need to reset the device to factory settings and then restore from iCloud backup.
    Sadly the reset to factory settings could cause more trouble than its worth.
    Apple's iCloud backup, could, but does not let the user restore one app or its data.
    You'll also find that even though that App's data is in the cloud, you as its owner do not have access to it.
    Hope it helps/

    Im unable to find deteted apps in purchased section in App Store ..please help me in restoring the deleted app

    Is the app still in your country's store (if it isn't then you won't be able to redownload it), you haven't changed countries since buying it (content is tied to the country as well as the account), and it isn't hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 ?
    If the app is no longer in your country's store then do you have a copy of it on your computer's iTunes library and/or on your backup of your downloads/library ?
