I lost all my data when updating to iOS 7.0.6

Hi, umm i was updating my phone to the recent software the ios7.0.6 is it? well anyways i havent backed up my phone for almost a year now, and when i updated it, it told me to restore it, and i dont want to do that but I had no choice because i cant use my phone until i connected to the itunes to 'Restore', is there any ways that i can change it back to the previous one? i really have important things in there and really need it .
Last time i lost my data, i was so devastated, now im experiencing it again... can anyone help me? Apple team can you help me? or any computer geniuses, im no computer whizz so please help me, Im now desperate that i had to join this Apple support community....

Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.
In other words, after your first experience with data loss, there is no logical reason you should have been neglecting to backup your data regularly. iCloud backups are free and can be set to backup automatically. iTunes backups are also free.
I'm sorry you lost your data, but this falls solely and squarely on your shoulders.

I didn't back up and have lost all my data when updating to iOS 7 :(

I didn't back up and have lost all my data when updating to iOS 7 I have an iphone 4s. Is there any way at all i can recover the data?! Help pls!!!

Actually, if you have never backed up your iPhone with iTunes or iCloud manually, there are still possibilities that iTunes or iCloud has backed up your iPhone automatically: every time you sync the iPhone with iTunes, iTunes will back up your iPhone automatically; if your iCloud backup was enabled, every time your iPhone is connected with Wifi and a power source with screen-locked, iCloud will create a backup automatically. If you find the backups, but the backups are not up to date, and you don’t want to lose the data generated after the backups, you can extract the lost data from the backups using the iPhone backup extractor.
In addition, you can also try to use the iPhone data recovery software to scan and recover the data on your iPhone directly even if you have no backups of your iPhone.

As Lawrence Finch suggests you can recover more recent information if you have a more recent iCloud backup.
To avoid this problem in the future you should check the iTunes settings when your phone is connected. Make sure iTunes is not set to sync automatically when your iPhone is connected. Another step to take is to give your new iPhone a unique name that is different from your old iPhone. Finally, the best way to charge an iPhone is to use the charger that came with the iPhone and plug that into a good wall outlet.

Lost all data when updating to iOS 7. Help would be appreciated.

I forgot to back up my iPhone before updating to iOS 7, and lost all data. Are there any methods for restoring the data without iCloud or iTunes?

When you do get your phone set back up - USE ICLOUD TO BACKUP YOUR PHONE!!!

Lost all my data when tried to restore windows from image backup. What to do now(for free)?

Dear Friends,
My Server: HP DL380-G7, OS: Win Server2008 (original).
10 days ago when one of my web application is not working I tried to restore my file in old state. So I apply "Windows image backup" services. After completing the process I found that I can't boot. And later when I installed a new OS I discover
all my data from dives gone even from my attached USB hard drive.
HELP ME!!!!! Its my greatest mistake in my 7 years career.
What to DO!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,
Above all, whether the USB disk is also included in your system state backup? If so, the restore will also restore the USB disk back to the status when creating that backup.
As data is gone from the USB disk, please make sure there is no any new file wrote onto that disk. Then you can try some third party data recovery tool which could help get the files back. Generally such kind of applications are not free but you can still
search for any application with free version or trail version.
If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

Lost all iCal data when installing isync

I tried a trial .mac account and lost all of my iCal info.. I know this happened through the sycronize process... Is there any way to revert this disaster?

I have just had the same arroying experience. I had mobileme and iCal on laptop working fine. Could see calendars in both. Then got iPhone 3G and it synch'ed the calendars to it fine. Went and stupidly upgraded to 2.0.1 and low and behold come to use iCal on G4 laptop (leoprd 10.5.4) and have no calendars. Look on mobile me - no calandars....eeek. Look at iPhone - still there - sighs with relief - assumes can restore to iCal on mac - wrong. Doesn't work. Odd. So read a few posts on here and someone recommended going into settings and turning off calendar syching in mobileme account. BAD move. Gave me the option of turning off calendars when I did that - turning off mind...not removing...so I said OK (surely they would say if this was going to delete them)....then turned back on....silly me. Boom! the iPhone synched with mobileme and replaced the good calendars with no calendars. So I've managed to remove all cals from all places - quite an achievement. Thanks Apple.
Any ideas how I go about restoring the calendars?

Lost all calendar data when upgrading from 10.4.11 to 10.6.1

So I bought the "MacOS X Boxed Set" for SNow Leopard, and installed it over my former 10.4.11 install on the main drive of my Intel-based iMac. Everything seems to have made the transition just fine -- my desktop icons, my emails, my dock, etc. Except for iCal. I open it and it's blank! Why? How do I restore all the recurring events and such that were in iCal previously?

I have the same problem migrating from a G4 iMac running 10.4 to an intel iMac running 10.6. Cannot even import calendar files exported from the old machine. Help!

I lost all my data after clicking F11

Hi everybody!
I have lost all my data when I clicked F11 and factory recovery was executed.
Is there any way to return back the data? They are very important.
They were all my data, very important including all data from university - for more than 4 years.
Please help me. I need an urgent help. The operating system is Windows Vista Business Edition - it is licensed.
Best Regards,
Manuel

Hi Manuel,
Unfortunately I have bad news for you.
F11 invokes the Recovery Manager, where you have a number of options. The following two options are under the I need help immediately section.
Microsoft System Restore is a nondestructive process. If you make a mistake you can roll your system back to a restore point on a date that works for you.
System recovery is, on the other hand, a destructive process which deletes all data. Before the process begins it does warn you.
You may be able to recover your data by contracting a data recovery company. It will be quite expensive and without a guarantee of success.
Did you not have your university data backed up on an external drive?

Looks like you restored your backup file to her phone. If you didn't back up your wife's phone first, then the data is gone, sorry.

Hi
Thanks but I have tried doing the above - when I said 7 times I was modest, its more like 15 times.
And I am referring to the 5.1 software update. I dont have wifi so I guess I will have to try that seeing that my husband also has the same problem - he has also tried downloading several times. It always times out en says that the connection is lost but yet there are always an internet connection and a decent signal once it stopped. Think it said error 32052 or something!
I am disappointed because the update includes inprovement on the battery life - did you guys notice any difference?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option which is revealed in the iTunes app on your iOS device by tapping the more button at the bottom of the screen.
