I recently updated my Iphone 5s to ios8 from ios7(.something) and lost all photos, text messages, etc. and then restored it using an old Icloud backup from 2014. I want to change the Icloud backup to one from this year.

Is it possible to do this, and how? My iphone 5s is still restoring currently in the Backup settings and there's an option that says "Stop restoring Iphone" if I tap it, it says "any data that has not been downloaded will not be restored or backed up in the future"... AND I KNOW that if I update my iphone from ios7 to ios8 that it is a big jump and is the reason why I lost everything on it. So please don't tell me that is the answer to my question, because it's not. I am clearly asking if I can change the icloud backup date from 2014 to one from this year. This is because my iphone asked me which backup I want to use to restore my stuff from after the ios8 update. I hope this question isn't too confusing!!

This exact same thing happened to me. Please help!
Might be a better idea to look for more current threads that this one which is over a year old.

First see if placing the iPod in Recovery Mode will allow a restore.
Next try DFU mode and restore.

Updated my iphone 4 to iOS 5.0.1 and then lost all my apps. how can I restore them?

As long as the apps are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 . If you download them to your computer's iTunes you could then try restoring to your backup and see if that restores them and their settings/content back to your iPhone - a backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their content/settings, so for the restore to work fully iTunes needs access to the apps so that it can restore them.

I lost all my text messages after updating to iOS6... PLEASE HELP!!

I just upgraded to iOS6 on my iPhone 4 and all my text messages are gone. I always do a backup before any major OS update. Everything is there (Pictures, Contacts, Voicemail, etc.) except for my text messages. After searching around, it seems like a bug that many people are experiencing. I have still yet to find a fix? Anyone able to get them back?

I dont think there is a fix available.

Yes, you can do it. Google for third-party iPad repair services. Too, there are many iPad repair videos online.

I have just synced my iPhone to a new mac, however i have lost all photos plus my work emails, certificates etc. I am being asked for a password to restore settings but cannot remember this - can i get a password hint. Or any other ideas what i can do

I have just synced my work iphone to my new mac and have lost photos, work email etc I am being asked for a password for mu iphone backup, however cannot remember this and cannot seem to get a hint - can anyone help please. I had not previously synced this phone with another computer

Hi Bob
Thanks for the input. Interesting that it ran on my computer for a
while (about 2 days) before it first started bleating. I suppose if I
had to upgrade, it would be to the Mac version. Everything else I
have tried on Parallels works, even Steinberg's Wavelab, which I
thought would be an impossibility.
I shall persevere. I am just appalled at the level of support that
Adobe provides, plus the fact that their website just plain doesn't
work.

My iPhone 3gs just deleted all my text messages. When I restore do I click back up or don't back up to get them back?

When I restore do i click back up or dont back up to get the text messages and everything back?

Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears? It might help. It's not going to make anything worse.
When was the last itme you backed up your phone? If it was recently, restoring the phone to the back up may get them back.
If you have a Mac, you can try an app like Phoneview from www.ecamm.com (there are similar apps for Windows but I don't remember the names). Phone view has a trial so you could at least check if it helps.
Best of luck.

HT4623 when i updated my iphone 4s to ios 6.1.3 and once it was done i could not backup my information which means i lost everything, please help

Lost all photos, contacts, calendar, etc. after ios 6.1 update on iphone 3. Help! How do I get my stuff back?

I was updating in order to get iCloud and Bump so I could transfer my data to my new iphone 5. My old phone was acting like it was a new phone and wanting me to set it up. I had to update itunes on my pc also. My data is not there either. I pulled up icloud, not there! I had a lot of pictures, notes, and contacts that I need. Can I restore them???

Did you fail to sync contacts/calendars with your computer regularly?
Did you fail ot import your pics?
If so, then they are very likely gone. You can try restoring from backup.

My mother recently updated her iPhone 4 and found her Settings missing. No icon, just gone. Anyone else out there have this happen? Any fixes?

My mother (sigh) recently updated her iPhone 4(S?) to iOS7 and has now found that Settings is missing. No icon. Gone. Anyone else out there have this problem? Any fixes?

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
Check other screens by swiping left or right. It's gotta be there somewhere.
Search using the search feature. Tap and slide down on the Home screen t reveal the search box. Type in Settings.

How To Change the Tempo of Just One Track?

I want to change the tempo of just one track of a song, but when I change the tempo of one track, the tempo of the whole song changes and gets messed up. Does anyone know how to just change the tempo of just one track of the whole song.

You can not change the tempo of a single track, in GB it's one tempo per song.
The only workaround would be to change the tempo, export only that track (soloed), and then drop the export back into your project (with it set back to the proper tempo)

I recently updated my Iphone 5s to ios8 from ios7(.something) and lost all photos, text messages, etc. and then restored it using an old Icloud backup from 2014. I want to change the Icloud backup to one from this year.
