I had my iphone 4 stolen, replaced with new iphone 4 had all my info that was on cloud downloaded to new phone.  Next day all that info dissappeared from new phone. Is there a way to recover info??

I had my iphone 4 stolen, replaced with new one same day and downloaded info saved to the cloud.  The next day all that info disappeared and have not been able to get any of the old info back.  Is there a way to get this info.

I think you will have to do a complete restore--you will lose any info added since last backup.  Connect phone to computer, select it in souce list.  Next, click on Summary tab, click Restore.  In the next dialog box, click Restore--your phone will be erased and the latest software will be installed.  Click agree to terms and phone will restart.  Then you will see the phone setup screen--click on Restore from Backup and select the most recent backup.  Obviously, this will only work if you have a backup on the computer.  If not, check Set up as New Phone, click continue, then wait for the process to finish.

    I have an iphone and my daughter has an ipod.  She has all my contacts showing up on her ipod.  I deleted them and now they are gone from both.  is there any way of retreiving this deleted information.

    When you share an iCloud account, any data you sync with the account is merged, and any actions you take on one device (such as deleteing contacts) is synced to all other devices sharing the account.  To avoid this, each person's device(s) should have a separate iCloud account with a separate ID.  (You can continue to share your iTunes account; it does not need to have the same ID as the one used for iCloud.)
    To create separate icloud accounts, decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account.  On the one that will be changing accounts, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting the other person's contacts from your account, and vice versa).
    As for recovering the deleted contacts, you can try restoring her phone from her most recent backup.  This may recover the contacts, however it often doesn't.  Restoring to an iCloud backup has to be done in the initial setup process.  If she have any data on your phone now that is not in the backup that she wants to save she will need to do that first.  Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup.  Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

  • I have just upgraded to os x lion 10.7.4 and I seem to have lost approx 4000 photos from iPhoto.  Is there a way to recover these photos?

    The Lion upgrade does not touch iPhoto. However, you may need to purchase an iPhoto upgrade.
    Look in your /Home/Pictures/ folder for the iPhoto Library file.

  • I just noticed that all my calendar events (other then yearly recurring) past the last 30 days are no longer on my calendar. Is there a way to retrieve them or are they lost?  I need them for my business!!

    I just noticed that all my calendar events past the last 30 days are no longer on my calendar,(other then yearly recurring) . Is there a way to retrieve them or are they lost?  I need them for my business!!

    Thanks for your reply. I did this and the events have not been restored. I am clouding between my iPhone and iPad and changed the settings on both devices. Do I need to power on and off?

  • I lost my contacts, texts etc after syncing my phone to itunes for first time since 2012, now all I have is info. starting from 2012.  Is there any way to recover the contacts, texts etc that I have lost for the last 2 years? So ticked off at apple!

    I am hoping that someone can help me understand how it can be so easy to lose the last 2 years data on an iphone by synching to itunes for the first time since 2012?  If this happens from itunes automatically overwriting your phones system why would'nt there be warnings and red sirens going off on your phone?  Can somone please let me know if this lost data is recoverable and maybe even let me know how to recover it?
    Thank you

    Glad to help!  The reply you got was very generic and didn't completely address your questions.
    Basically, all it said was to restore your backup.  What I addressed was your query about how and why this happened. iTunes did give you prompts and warnings. And if you'd used iTunes back in 2012, then you'd have lost much less data when you made the incorrect selection.
    Do you have an iCloud backup?  Were you backing up your device at all?
    I just found it amusing that you were 'ticked off at Apple' when Apple didn't cause this problem.  You did.
    Have a great day!

  • I accidentally deleted an important mailbox from server. Is there a way to recover it?

    Thanks

    I think I lost them, I did it from the Mail application but the Mailbox were certainly located in the server ( under ON MY SERVER) window. Moreover, Time machine was off.
    So no chance of calling the internet service provider? or apple?

  • During sync, new contacts on my iphone are deleted. The option in iTunes to replace contacts on my iphone is not selected. Is there a way to merge info on sync instead of replace?

    During sync, new contacts on my iphone are deleted. I'll typically add any new contacts I get directly to my iphone, simply because I don't have my mac on me at all times. However, unless I specifically add the contact to my mac address book, it will be deleted from my iphone contacts upon sync. The option in iTunes to replace contacts on my iphone is not selected. Is there a way to merge info on sync instead of replace?

    Thank you for your reply. I realy have nothing else to sync - no music. Emails do work so its just my contacts I am concerned about. I'm kinda new at this but have a working understanding of the system.
    I have an icloud account but the Geek Squad went there and tried but could not export contacts.  I truly am not that good re icloud. They worked exclusively with my itunes, re-downloading, etc - all of the stuff in their book.
    I have not tried a complete restore because I am not sure I am that good with the equipment but could.  I did all of the stuff on the help page - sync reset, forced one-way sync etc but the phone just does not seem to recognize the sync. I have not gone to an Apple store to have them have a look - that may be my next step to hook up to another itunes computer. It seems simple to me - it was working fine until maybe 3 months ago - probably when there was an update. Its telling to me that the phone does not tell me there is a sync in process while itunes is saying there is - its just not biting between the 2.
    I appreciate any hep - and I said, I not stupidi about these things but have kind of reached as far as I am comfortable with fear of doing something really wrong.

  • TA25361 I have a ton of documents and databases in AppleWorks v 6.0 that I can no longer open on my MacBook Pro.  Is there any way to recover this info?  Some documents can be opened and resaved with textedit, but not my database with all important addres

    I have a ton of documents and databases in AppleWorks v 6.0 that I can no longer open on my MacBook Pro.  Is there any way to recover this info?  Some documents can be opened and resaved with textedit, but not my database with all important addresses.

    I tried Peggy's List > Select All > Copy > Paste into an AW spreadsheet suggestion.
    In my case, pasting into the spreadsheet lost all text formatting (mostly text set to bold). The results of formulas were pasted, and checkboxes were pasted as "on" or "off". The DB did not contain any pop-up menus or radio buttons, but I expect they would transfer as a number showing the list position of the chosen item.
    Pasting the copied List view data into a Numbers table gave a result similar to that with AppleWorks. I selected B2 as the target cell (for top left cell of the pasted data) to avoid any effects of posting into a header row or column. Bold and regular text formatting looked the same as it had in AW's List view.
    Based on that, I'd slip the 'paste into an AppleWorks Spreadsheet step, and paste directly into a Numbers Table.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • Since I had my iPhone 4 replaced with a refurbished model, does that extended my one year warranty?

    I bought an iPhone 4 last June and got it in July, but I had it replaced with a refurbished model a few months ago. Because of this, is the included one year warranty that I originally had extended by a period of time because I had this phone replaced?

    You get 90 days on the service replacement or you original warranty, whichever is longer, which I this case is the one on the replacement. So you are good for 90 more days.

    Sorry, unless she backup up the new phone before or is using iCloud to save the photos, the photos are gone.

  • My 4s crashed and Apple replaced it while I was out of town. I used it for a week without downloading my old information. When I backed up my old information it erased all my new information from a weeks work. Is there a way to recover that information?

    It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
    Set you phone up as a new device and start over.

  • HT4236 iPhone was stolen. Is there a way to get Info from that iPhone to an iPad? I never synced iPhone with computer.

    iPhone was stolen. Is there a way to sync info to an iPad? iPhone was never synced to a computer. I lost all my photos, which have great sentimental value and not sure if it is possible to retrieve those photos. Thanks for any advice :)

    If you have failed to sync your device to your computer or cloud service, as the iphone is designed, then everything is gone.

  • I built a website with iWeb on my older mac and launched it on the internet. The hardrive crashed which was where the files were saved for the website. Is there any way to recover it through the internet onto my newer computer?

    Is there any way to recover this website? I need to edit it but the original files were wiped clean even after recovering what was left on the hard drive.

    iWeb stores its sites and pages in a proprietary package format on the HDD in the user library, and when FTP'ing it to the server, it's a set of PHP and other file types. So, there is no way you can re-build from what's on the server.
    But you may double-check, the file in question on the HDD is ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2 (where ~ is your user home folder). Maybe it's somewhere among your recovered files? Restoring it into the same location and copying iWeb into the Applications folder will get you going again.
    Other than that, here is a discussion forum dedicated to iWeb.

  • I did a fresh install on my computer, but when I tried to sync, it put the new bookmarks (standard firefox ones) onto the sync data instead. Is there any way to recover my bookmarks?

    Like the question says, is there any way to recover them?
    I can't pull them off my old install since it was erased.

    Lets hope that you did not really erase your old profile, you would have had to go a little out of your way to do that. I've never used Sync but you have to have something to Sync to.
    Use the following to see if you have more than one profile or your lost bookmarks
    in the bookmarkbackups folder.
    Type about:support into the location bar the click on "Open Containing Folder" that will take you to your current profile. The bookmarkbackups folder has 5 backups (.json files) any of which can be restored with Firefox up through restore bookmarks.
    It doesn't sound like the install pulled in your old bookmarks, so continuing ...
    Sounds like you created a new profile instead of using your existing profile.
    Open your profile folder and go up one level to see if you have multiple
    profiles ...
    HELP (Alt+H) --> Troubleshooting information... --> "Open Containing Folder"
    (or type about:support into the location bar then click on "Open Containing Folder")
    note the filename, then go up one level to see if you have additional profile folders.
    Check the dates of places.sqlite (new in Fx3) for update date just before you went to Fx4.
    Since it is updated each time you close your session that would be a good place to check.
    If you find one then note its filename (the profile name is part of the filename) and
    then start the Firefox Profile Manager and open with that profile.
    To prevent the problem in the future don't let Firefox start up for you after
    downloading and installing a new version. Instead exit the install at that
    last point, and restart Firefox in your normal manner.
    If you really do want to start with a new profile like the one you have, them look in the bookmarkbackups folder of the other profiles and look particularly at the dates and the size of the .json files to find one that you can restore to your current profile -- restoring is complete replacement of what you have for bookmarks.
