I have a new iPhone and have kept my old one to play music in another room. I have recently updated my software on the new iPhone and when it backed up it backed up to the old iPhone, I have therefore lost pictures, messages and apps from my new iPhone as it has backed up to the last session of the old phone, how can I get all my new stuff back and stop it from happening again?

No such thing has occurred. iPhones do not backup to one another.
It is not possible to backup a different iPhone from the one being updated.
If the iPhone was restored with a backup from a different device, restore it again from the correct backup.

Pay attention when restoring the iPhone and select the correct backup to restore from.

I used iCloud before I updated to the new iOS 6 and now I only have 44 pictures how can I get them all back?
Photo stream only keeps your photos for 30 days. After that, they are removed from your photo stream but not from any device that has already received them. Chances are, the 44 photos are from the last 30 days; the others are not there because they are no longer in your photo stream.
If the photos were in your camera roll when you last backed up, restoring to the backup should recover them. However, you will have to restore to the entire backup to do so. If they weren't backed up or imported to your computer, there is no way to recover them now.
To be sure your photos are saved, regularly import them from the camera roll to your computer as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. -

I created an iMovie using pictures from my camera roll, I exported the movie to the camera roll and then deleted all of the pictures. Now I can't get the movie to play. Did deleting the pictures cause my IMovie to disappear? How can I get my movie back?
Download and open this program, lets you look around your I phone as if it was a disc drive, might find em in the iphones drive.

My (iTunes) playlist cannot be re-synched to my iPhone after I updated it. I synched it to a newly named playlist with most of the original songs (3.6G) but it will only load a fraction of them now. How can I get them all back on my iPhone?

My husband and i have our iphones set up. He is getting all my text messages that are coming through to my phone, how can i elminate this problem? Does it have anything to do with out icloud?
Well, you use the different accounts such Phone Numbers, email addresses. And make sure that your iPhones have no receipient address in common, then you can avoid this issue.
I use iMessage on my iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro, iPod touch.
Each of them has a individual address to receive messages, so they won't combine all the messages among all the devices.
Try this, if it doesn't work, tell me, I'll figure another way out. -
I updated my ipod from 4.3.3. to 5.1.1 and i lost everything on my ipod....how do i get it back?
You can redownload iTunes purchases by the following:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
For other items you will have to get them from where you got them the first time. -

Loaded icloud and it erased everything from my calendar. How can I get that info back??
Once I loaded icloud into my iphone, it erased everything from my phones calendar and didn't forward any
of that information to my icloud online acct either.
I NEED that info back. How can I find it and get it back??
PLEASE HELP!!I thought this happened when I first updated the software on my iPad. I didn't see any of the calendar events. Eventually they showed up tho. I am not sure exactly how long it took (or why the delay) but all the events were there when I checked again a couple of days later (may have been earlier but I didn't check). Maybe it's just the same thing?

has anyone ever had their apple ipod disappear from the computer? Mine did when I tried to install a newer version on my pC (vista), yesterday. Now I can't even see any apple icons on the screen or any other reference to my ipod tunes. I have had them on the computer for more than 6-years, and have spent a sizeable sum with apple buying iTunes. Help!
One more note. All my music on my iPhone was erased when I clicked on "Transfer Music from iPhone". I mistook the "from" for "to". I want the music to go from the PC to the iPhone, not the other way around. I've sync'ed many times since the latest version of iTunes, so I know that doesn't work.

I had to restore my iphone 5 from an icloud backup from a week ago. everything restored fine, but it only brought back my imessages up to the backup date (a week ago); but all the messages up to today are on my mac messages app on my macbook air; how can i get them all back on my phone? why isnt it syncing from icloud automatically if its still available on my mac? Thanks for any help!
iCloud doesn't sync iMessages. They are sent from the iMessage server to your devices, not synced between devices. I don't think you'll be able to get these messages back on your phone, but you should be receiving any new messages.

i pressed "SYNC" and lost all the songs from many cd's that I loaded to my library, how can I get them all back?
When you say "account," do you mean your iTunes library, because your iTunes library is what is on your computer? Your iTunes library does not have an email address. An account that is related to iTunes is your Apple ID (which is an email address) and you use it as your user name to sign in to the iTunes Store, to make purchases. Changing your Apple ID will not make songs disappear from your computer's iTunes library.
If you had an Apple ID and used it to make song purchases from the iTunes Store, and then started using a different Apple ID, you should be able to re-download the songs purchased with the old Apple ID. In iTunes, sign in to the iTunes Store using your OLD Apple ID (and password). That may not be your current email address, but Apple uses it as your user name, so it does not matter.
On the iTunes Store Home screen, click on Purchased under QUICK LINKS. This takes you do the Purchased screen, where you can re-download previous song purchases (for that Apple ID) at no cost.
NOTE: If those song purchases are from more than a few years ago, you may also need to authorize your computer to play (and sync) songs for your old Apple ID.
For songs that were not purchased from the iTunes Store, if they are also gone, you cannot get them back unless you have a backup (or they are still loaded on your old iPod).
If that's not what you mean by "changed the email address on my account," please post back with more details. -
My iphone battery died and on charging the phone it asked me to connect to itunes and restore the phone.
If i restore the phone how can i get my data back and how can i check when i last backed up my phoneIf you have been syncing regularly as the iphone is designed, then you can sync the data back.
Regardless you will have to restore the iphone. -
My ipod 4g keept crashing so then i read on this website to go to settings and rest everything. And when i did everything on my ipod got deleted.I tried restarting it but i didnt restore my ipod before so everthing got erased. How can i get it all back???
Restore from backup if you have one:
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
