HT4946 How do I get my pictures from an itunes backup?

I have an HP desktop with Windows7. My hard drive crashed and I was wondering if I can retrieve any of my pictures or videos from an itunes sync or backup? I also use icloud with Wi Fi. I had to install a new hard drive so everything was wiped off my computer. I used to be so good about backing up pics and videos onto CDs but haven't lately. These pictures are of my kids and family. I would appreciate any help I can get.

The iTunes backup is meant to send pictures back to your iPhone if they're lost there, not back to your computer. The only photos on the iTunes backup are Camera Roll photos, which are still on your iPhone anyway. Other albums, events, etc. are not backed up in iTunes because it is assumed you back them up from your computer as part of your normal, everyday computer upkeep and maintenance.
So without a computer backup, I'm afraid you're out of luck.

    Hi Tom,
    Welcome to Sony Community!
    Pictures cannot be transferred directly to flash drive or memory stick. You can transfer them to computer and then to flash drive or memory stick.

  • How can I get imported pictures from my ipad 3 to my laptop?

    Pretty much what the quetions states - "How can I get imported pictures from my ipad 3 to my laptop?"
    I've imported a load of pics from my Nikon D40 to my iPad 3 (ios 6.1) using the iPad camera connector. 
    So far so good.
    However I cannot sync the pictures to my laptop (win 7).  I would like to be able to keep the albums I have created, and get them to the laptop too.
    If a restore was required I might lose thee pics.
    Any advice or apps recommended to help me?
    Thanks in advance,
    Steve Potter

    To copy photos to your computer that were copied to it via the camera connection kit (or taken with it or saved from emails/websites) then see this page (as far as I know you can't copy their albums) - on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard

    Restore a backup of your phone that was made while the photos were still on it.  It should include your camera roll photos.  This explains how to restore an iCloud backup: iCloud: Restore your iOS device from iCloud.

    Hey kbert73
    I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

  • I asked " how do I get my songs from my itunes library to my ipod?" and you said to sync to ipod.  Now, I did see that on the left hand side, but now it's gone.  What do I do? I tried "file" and sync, but it did not do anything.

    I asked, "how do I get my songs from my itunes library to my ipod?" and you said to sync it to the ipod.  I saw that at one time on the left side, but it's not there anymore.  I tried clicking on "file" and then on sync, but it didn't work.  The word was lighter than the others, so I figured I would not be able to click on it.

    If the iPod is no longer recognized in iTunes click here.  iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

  • How can I get my music from my Itunes library after I replaced my hard drive?

    How can I get my music from my Itunes library (purchased and downloaded (CD)) after I replaced my hard drive?  Same account name.  My other computer see's old and new music.  Can purchace new songs.  They show up by themselves.  Can connect IPOD and old songs show up.  Seem's like they are defined as different accounts.

    They will only be where you put them.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • In iTunes 11 how do you get Genius recommendations from the iTunes store

    In iTunes 11 how do you get Genius recommendations from the iTunes store. It would appear that I can only get Genius recommendations from my own library. This was easy in iTunes 10 and enabled me to find lots of good artists I had never heard of.

    I have this same question and all I have found on it is this,
    http://ipod.about.com/od/advanceditunesuse/ss/genius_store.htm
    Basically it seams they got rid of the whole side bar concept of things to make it all more streamline, understandable but I know atleast for myself that genius sugestion for any song is how I found new artists and songs I never knew existed.
    If you go to the Album the go to "In the Store" it will give you a recomendation for that album... not exaclty what you might be looking for but atleast its something, if anyone else has a way to get genius sugestions for individual songs I am all ears and would love to hear about it.

    I really need my contacts and photos back

    Ok. I have 2 hard drives and one of them died apparently so..not knowing what to do, I did chose reinstall Lion after command r open start-up. The whole thing is a mess but my computer is back up and running with the second hard drive. I had a time machine backup which I've been dragging stuff out of. i had to re enter serial numbers and do all sorts of initial set up stuff. 1) How do I get all of my icons (like my HD icon and external drives icons) to appear on my desktop again? I can only find them through a finder window. 2) i now have to type a password to get into my computer (user) - I 'm the only user and don't want to have to do that.
