HT4859 HELP! restore and back up issues! Is there hope?

I restored my ipad but did not set up the backup. The back up says it's never been backed up. If I back up the ipad will I get my information back?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You won't get your old information back, but going forward any content you back up from now should be secure.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
    Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • HT201269 why is it that when trying to use a back up of my old iphone i click on devices and the options are all frey scaled? I cannot access the restore and back upo options

    Let me start with the general advise...
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • HT1766 when i restore and back up i loose contacts

    i lost my contacts , so restored and backed up, they come back but then i loose them again. !!!!!!

    You're attempting to back up more data to iCloud than you have available.  iCloud has 5GB of free storage, and you can purchase more storage if you choose (+10GB = $20, + 20GB = $40, +50GB = $100, all prices for one year of availability).
    Manage the amount of data that you are attempting to backup to iCloud using the Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage.

    How do I turn off "find my iphone" from the computer?
    The phone was disabled and I cannot restore and back up until I turn off this feature

    You can access iCloud.com on a computer to turn it off.

  • I'm trying to restore and back up my iPhone 4 it's taking more than 45 hours. What should I do?

    I have been trying to restore and back up my Iphone which i have just updated and I wanted my apps, contacts, messages,etc,. all back on my iPhone but its taking more than 45 hours and it's only 16 GB. I have really important contacts that I need to have in my phone but it would take weeks to get them back one by one without using the back up.

    As has been said, you may have a corrupt backup on your computer. However, if it is a Windows computer you may also have a corrupt socket layer in Windows. So first try this (after canceling the backup):
    Open a command window with Administrator privileges and type:
       netsh  winsock  reset
    then reboot your computer and try again to do a backup (right click on the phone's name in iTunes and select Backup from the floating menu).
    If this doesn't work you will have to delete the existing backup. Go to iTunes preferences, Devices page.
    Note: If you have a Mac first try restarting it, launching iTunes, and back up as described above.

  • I restored and backed up my iphone and now none of my (500 photos) are showing up in my camera roll? Please help, I document my entire summer on that device.

    In that order? Backup should come first, then restore.

  • Restoring and backing up again to Time Machine

    Hi Apple Community,
    I recently had to replace the hard drive on my iMac. After the repair, I connected my Mac to my Time Capsule backup and did a complete resotre of my hard drive (approximatley 500 GB). The whole process took about 8 hours but when I was done I had successfully transfered over all my files, applications, preferences, and settings and was satisfied. However, when I attempted tp perform my next Time Machine backup, my computer began a new initial backup of my entire 500 GB of data. I couldn't understand why I would need to do a complete, fresh backup when I had just finished a complete restore. I called Apple and spoke to a Time Machine/Time Capsule Specialist who agreed that my computer was acting strangely and transferred me to an Apple Senior Advisor who would "have access to better tools for resolving my issue." The Senior Advisor told me that my Time Machine was actually behaving properly since backups are associated with unique hard drive adresses not content/settings, so a new hard drive will always require a new full backup. I was extremely frustrated with this response and felt like I recieved the infamous "it's not a bug; it's a feature" excuse.
    Does anyone know if the Senior Advisor is correct? If so, it seams like a major flaw with the Time Machine software and means I have to spend another 8 hours backing up my system. Additionaly, the Advisor mentioned that the new backup will create a new sparsbundle file (though I can't currently see it since the backup is still in progress) meaning I will have to delete my legacy backups to save space. If the Advisor was wrong does anyone know of a workaround? 
    I've actually done several Time Machine Restores before including from an old MacBook Pro to a new one which would cause a similar situation. I can't remember ever having to do a complete fresh backup, but I may have simply forgotten. What I can't understand (but forgot to mention to the Apple Advisor) is that my Time Machine System Preferences show the previous dates for the "Oldest" and "Latest" backups. If Time Machine were truly tied to my hard drive why would System Preferences believe my iMac had already backed up?
    Thanks in advance for any help or assitance,
    Jonathan

    That's correct, but incomplete.  The full restore (and Setup Assistant and Migration Assistant) were changed effective with Snow Leopard to leave a "trail" in the SystemMigration.log so Time Machine could figure out what happened, and "associate" the new drive with the old backups, and only do an incremental backup.
    That often didn't work in Snow Leopard, unfortunately, and was improved in Lion, where it seems to work much more often, but (obviously) not always.
    Also effective with Lion is a new UNIX command that allows you to do this manually, but unfortunately it doesn't work if your backups are on a network, for some reason.

    It's not your Mac, but your internal HD that appears to be new.  If you restart the backup, once it finishes, you'll still have the old backups, but as if they were on a HD that's no longer connected to your Mac.  You'll need the procedure in #E3 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting to see or restore from them.

  • Restoring and backing up.

    I just got a new iPhone 5sand have had it almost a week, but it won't restore or back up. I have it plugged in, locked and connected to wifi every night and it has not done either a back up or a restoration. I have pretty much everything from my old iPhone but my music won't download all of my music. What can I do to make sure I get backed up and restored?

        Hi Adele1
    I'm sorry to hear your having difficulties backing the device up. How are you attempting to back it up? iTunes, iCloud, or Verizon Cloud. Please turn off Wifi and try this:http://vz.to/HDyBiC

  • How can I get Back all of my data after restoring and back up ? I lost my data and I did back up

    when I did restore and update .. I lost all of my data , then I pressed to back up buttom , when I try to restore data , its disapper . is there anyway to get back all data lost ?

    If you are backing up to your computer, check iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, if there are nay other backups listed.
    Since each backup replaces the old one if not used to restore from, your data might be lost since you seem to have backed up a phone without any personal data.
    Check this article about how to restore from backups:

  • I am experiencing very slow import and backing up issues.

    I am experiencing very slow import and backing up catalog on exiting Lightroom. This is a very recent issue. I use RAW files.

    The type of files you are importing will have an effect on the speed of the import process. Larger files, like raw sensor files, are normally much larger than JPG files.
    But if this is something new, the slowness, and you are using the same camera with the same size files as previously then it's not just the file size.
    What type of computer and what operating system are you using.
