I cant restore my old sms
i try so many ways to restore my old bsckup files, it asking password & i try my all memorable passwords , but i cant acess any body can help me
Try leaving the password field blank.
You can also try using an Exchange account password, some Exchange configuration profiles will require the iPhone to create encrypted backups.
If you can't remember the password, iTunes won't restore the iPhone from that backup. If you don't remember creating a password and think it was a bug or something, try contacting Apple.

Time machine cant restore my old files
I erased my hard-drive 2 days ago and i have been unable to restore my old files backed up with time machine. Every time i tried to restore the Address book or i Cal, it always says that i already have the same file and if i want to keep both or replace the old one. And if i do replace it, it seems to work but my Address book remain empty.
When i go through my backed files with the time machine machine, i can see some of my old data but i just dont how to restore them. Can anybody tell the right way of restoring the i Cal and the address book??
thanksI had something simlar and discovered that the permissions on my backup disk we're completely and remarkably (in that the new owner or the entire backup was a non-administrator user on my system) changed.
My symptoms were like yours: backups from before a certain date not highlighted in white (i.e. not available for browsing via Time Machine).
My restore became a nightmare of knife-and-fork work. Very disappointing.
Please try this:
Browse your backup disk (i.e. the disk you pointed Tome Machine at) with Finder or Terminal. Down a couple of levels you'll come to a folder containing one subfolder for every backup taken. Go to one of the backups you cannot open via Time Machine (so any 12th Jan backup name will start with "2008-01-12...", and so forth).
Browse into the backup folder. The sub folders to open are:
1. the name of your hard drive
2. Users
In the ./Users folder there'll be a folder in there with your username. I f if, like mine, the permissions have been hosed then you'll be able to tell pretty easily.
If you're using Finder then do a Get Info on the "yourusername" folder and tell us what permissions are set. If you're using Terminal, do an ls -la on the same directory and report back. -
Cant restore my old IPAD data on to my new IPAD
Hi All,
Just got a new IPAD 3 in the post because my old one was having problems with the home button. My iCloud backups are all up to date, on new IPAD 3 i did the initial setup and chose to restore from iCloud backup and it says no backups available.
I have since set the ipad up as a new device, gone into iCloud settings and I can see my old backup listed.
How do I restore the backup on to my new IPAD????
DaveFirst be sure that the new iPad is running the same or higher level of iOS as the one you backed up. If it's running a lower iOS you won't be able to restore to the backup. Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings, go back through the setup screens on the iPad, and when given the option, choose Restore to iCloud Backup. You may want to be sure it's connected to your charger as this will take some time to complete.

backed up my iphone 4 32 gig and got a iphone 5 16gig and i cant restore it not enought gigs an my new iphone . anyone know how to delete some of old infor on old phone before restore to new phone?
Sorry, but the iPhone backup is an all or nothing deal when it comes to restoring. It is not designed to be user editable & one screw-up, attempting to do so, will make the whole backup un-useable.
If you want to give editing such a shot, post back, including the OS on your computer, & I'll tell you how. -

My friend found his old ipod touch 4. He charged it up, and it says "disabled" and i cant restore it on itunes without his password which he forgot. Can I restore it without the password.
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
How do I get my old SMS messages onto my new iphone?
I upgraded to a new 4S. Restored from back up, but this didn't load the old SMS mssgs from the previous 3GS phone. Many of which were work related and probably worth keeping. How do I get these onto my new 4S?
ThanksThe only way to get them on your phone is to restore your new phone from the most recent backup of your old phone. Is that what you did?

Cant restore from Mountain Lion!
Having gone through the ML nightmare and removing the Airport card, I now cant restore to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 from time machine, the time machine opens
but having selected the previous back up the RESTORE button does not light up? Does anyone have any ideas.
I have lots of college work to do and just dont need this Rotten Apple!
P.S. I did update all software prior to installing ML!
Cheers.
Dave.I use Carbon Copy Cloner, but I'm biased, having moderated it's old forums for over six years. CCC today can clone the Recovery HD and does a lot more. See https://discussions.apple.com/message/19729711?#19729711? for details.

I have some old SMS photos that I received that are only showing up as a black screen. I hit load earlier messages till i got to the beginning and I can see two even older photos but I cant see the others for some reason. Help?
Publish to a folder on the desktop and then open one of the html files containing the photos with a text editor and search for "img src=". The code following that defines the photo.
Here's an example of one less the brackets : +img src="Embedtests_files/Talia%20Stamp.jpg" alt="" style="border: none; height: 203px; width: 260px; " /+. Each should have the file location (Embedtests_files), file name (Talia%20Stamp.jpg), the alternate name (alt= ) which iWeb doesn't fill in, style, heitht and width. See what your page includes after each img scr= tag.
It may be due to some setting need at the server but someone who's more familiar with non .Mac servers can better explain that.
Can you post the URL so we can look at it directly?
