I erased data on my iPhone 4S by mistake - 'restoring'.  Can I retrieve what I lost?

If you had a backup before restoring, then yes, if not, then no. Restore from your most recent backup.

  • TS4036 If Iphone is unplugged during restore can you retrieve lost data?

    While I was updating my iphone with the cloud my daughter unplugged my phone to try to use it. Now I was not able to restore any of my pictures or work apps that I had. Is there any way to retrieve these things???..... Especially the pictures?

    Only possibility that could work, and it's probably too late for you now.
    Immediately turn off Wi-Fi & Cellular Data on the Phone.  Activate Airplane Mode.
    Remove SIM card if it has one.
    Now, do a backup of the device to iTunes.  Once that has been secured, then put back in your SIM card, and turn Airplane Mode off, turn Cellular Data & Wi-FI back on.
    If you did it in time, then the device will still wipe clean, but you've got a backup saved to iTunes for you to restore back from.

  • After erase data and setting, iphone 3g wont turn on

    after erase data and setting, iphone 3g wont turn on. pls help

    1.  Have you tried plugging it into your computer?
    2.  Do you have the most updated version of iTunes?
    3.  Did you try a 'hard' restore.  Press home and sleep button at the same time until the Apple logo comes up.

    My current situation: I have soooo many texts on my iphone and I haven't deleted many because I need the information contained in them for future reference and for legal purposes.  I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself. I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need.  It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and my MacBook Pro.
    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

    Hello Filbert,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone wanting to continually restore.  I found an article with steps to address the issue you described:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please try to troubleshoot security software issues.

  • I had to erase my hard drive and now when I try to sync the I phone or Ipad it says I will loose my data on the iphone or ipad .  how can I sync the phone or I pad without loosing my music ?

    I had to erase my hard drive and reinstall ox snow leopard.  when i try to sync my Iphone or Ipad it says that my device was synced with another computer and I will loose my songs on the Iphone or ipad and it will be replaced by the library that is on my computer now.  The library is empty since I had to erase the hard drive.  Can anyone help?

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone/iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone/iPad with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

  • IPhone 5 stuck in recovery - Can I retrieve pictures?

    HI,
    Having found many great answers here in the past, it is, unfortunately time for me to seek help once more.  My iPhone 5 has decided to go into the start up loop for some reason. If I connect it to my mac, it does not recognise it, nor in itunes.  I have held home and power buttons to force it to ask for itunes, and am offered the option to restore but lose all data.  This i fine but my last resort as it has loads of pictures from a 6 week family trip that I've a) not downloaded and b)  not got hooked up to the cloud or the stream.  Any (free) suggestions on how to retrieve my pictures before restoring?
    Thank you!
    (Desperate) Dan

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply.  I should have said, I havn't erased it as yet, so it's kind of hibernating in recovery mode at the moment.  I need to know how to access the drive to download the pictures.

  • My iphone has been stolen, how can I retrieve my contacts without sim and having never backed up

    My iphone has been stolen and I have never backed up my phone so how cn I retrieve my contacts as I have no recoed of the sim number

    The iPhone doesn't save contacts to the SIM card so I don't know what good knowing the SIM card number would do you. If you have no back up of the contacts, they are lost.

  • Do others have problem with iPhone 4 HOME button? Can anyone advise what can be done?

    My iPhone 4 HOME button doesn't respond well and a few other iPhone4 owners I know have the same issue. My phone is a gift brought back from another country. So, I am reluctant to approach my local Reseller as the phone was not purchased from them. I tried o get Apple online support but ended up having to fill in an address form from the country where the phone was bought.
    I hope someone can provide me with some advice as my phone warranty is due in about a month.

    Restore as new, do not restore from the backup.
    Does the problem continue?

  • Well, i have an iPhone 4s but i bought it in a pawnshop.... the problem is that the phone have cydia and i dont know if the phone have the jailbreak.... i wanted to actualizate mi iPhone...how i can konw of what operator is my phone? im from mexico

    i dont want lock my phone when i actualize it... excuse my english i´m mexican

    Sorry. You can't get help here. Discussing jailbroken / hacked devices is forbidden by the terms of service.
    It is not always possible to revert a jailbroken / hacked phone to a woking state.
    Next time, buy a phone from a legitimate source.

  • IPhone 5 calls sound "robotic", can't hear what the person says.

    They can hear my voice perfectly fine, but their voice sounds "robotic". It helps to reboot, but the problem returns . I just got a replacement, and its got the same problem. Reception is fine, altho after the last update the signal is weak with only 1 bar, but this is another problem.
    Appreciate any help.

    DOH! just read someone elses post with the same issue and their answer was check that the factory protective film was removed from the screen...TAHDAH! I swear I'm not normally that dumb!

    I Forgot my icloud id and date now my iphone 5 doesnt work

    It's usually your AppleID - what you use to make purchases. I don't know what date you're referring to.
    What do you mean by it won't work?
