IPad Data Lost After OS 5 Upgrade

Hello,
I recently upgraded to OS 5 on my iPad. Everything went okay EXCEPT I lost data within apps on my iPad. I contacted the app vendor, and although they had some useful suggestions, I cannot locate the lost data.
When I go to restore from backup, it's the same data as AFTER the upgrade so that doesnt't help me. I use Time Machine on my iMac which I snych with this iPad, but I don't know what file to look for since everything is embedded in iTunes (the backups and files for the iPhone and iPad).
Any suggestions? I know the data has to be there, but I don't know where to look.
Thanks very much.

I am a bit unclear as to what you are saying. iCloud retains the last three backups per device. Are they not available in your case? Please see the attached link in its entirety. If you need more help please give a more detailed account of what has / is happening. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4859

  • Keyword data lost after Snow Leopard upgrade

    I'm using Bridge CS3 and after upgrading to Snow Leopard my keyword data is gone, gone, gone.
    Is this happening to anyone else? Any ideas or solutions for recovering it?
    Thank you,

    Yes, I am having the same problems.  I have no keywords or metadata showing up anywhere within my files.

  • Data lost after several days running!

    data lost after several days running
    ENV:
    Service Pack 1 for Crystal Reports for Eclipse 2.0
    Tomcat5.5
    Problem:
    There is no problem to export the report as PDF files in the first few days after i upgraded the CR4E.
    But after several days running,the problem appeared : the exported PDF file was incomplete!
    It's supposed to 3 pages,but only 1 page(the first page) exported actually.
    When i restarted the tomcat,the problem disappeared.In several days running,
    the problem appeared again...
    Code:
    reportClientDoc = new ReportClientDocument();
    reportClientDoc.open(Messages.getString("tmpltPath")+tmplt_name, OpenReportOptions._discardSavedData);     
    RptHelp  rptHelp = new RptHelp();
    rptHelp.setDatabaseCtrl(reportClientDoc);
    rptHelp.addDiscreteParameterValue(reportClientDoc,"","userName","admin");
    rptHelp.addDiscreteParameterValue(reportClientDoc,"","start_date",start_date);
    rptHelp.addDiscreteParameterValue(reportClientDoc,"","end_date",end_date);

              rptHelp.addDiscreteParameterValue(reportClientDoc,"",p_name<i>,p_value<i>);
    String exportPath = Messages.getString("reportExportPath");
    String exportName = "test";
    rptHelp.export(reportClientDoc, exportPath+exportName, file_extention);
    File file = new File(exportPathexportName"."+file_extention);
    FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(file);
    int len = (int)file.length();
    byte[] data = new byte[len];
    int read = 0;
    while (read <len) {
        read += in.read(data, read, len-read);
    in.close();
    response.setContentType("application/x-msdownload");
    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename="+ URLEncoder.encode(exportName"."file_extention,"ISO-8859-1"));
    OutputStream ops = response.getOutputStream();
    ops.write(data);
    ops.flush();
    ops.close();
    out.clear();
    out = pageContext.pushBody();

    What is the data? What is displaying the data (graph or chart)? What does your code look like? Why did you post a 4M image to the forum?
    NaN in the data will appear as gaps in plots.

  • Sticky Brain data lost after upgrade to 10.4.4

    Sticky Brain can't locate my data file after the upgrade to 10.4.4 and neither can I. Can someone tell me where it might be moved to during that process?

    I can't tell you where it might have moved to but in my case, using 4.0.3 the default backup file is here- HD/Users/yourname/Library/Application Support/Chronos/Backups

  • IPad email problem after version 6 upgrade

    My email stopped working after accepting the upgrade to version 6.  My settings appear right and everything worked before the upgrade. Any suggestions?

    I did that, but the service is intermittent. I never know with any certainty whether or not an email will go through.

  • All data lost after upgrading

    I lost all data after upgrading my iPhone 3G to iOS4. I was able to recover only the information that syncs with mobileme, everything else was gone, in all apps: bank accounts, passwords, notes, games, settings, etc -everything
    I already restored and restarted, even used time machine, nothing seems to work. Any help?

    I am trying to update to the newest software, and get a warning that i need to save/transfer new purchases to my library. I know the last time i did this update i went with continue, and as the others in the posting have indicated lost information. It didnt matter to me at that time, but now that I have more info to lose, i dont want to do it, so the other option on it is to do as it asks. But, I am having a hard time doing that. I have done what they have asked by going to file and transferring, but, it doesnt seem to be working. As i continue to get the same warning. I am not going to update this till i get the answer to do it properly this time. But, want to know why it doesnt want to transfer the info that it requires, for me to continue on. I think this is why the others in the thread are losing their info.

  • All Data Lost after upgrade

    Was wondering if someone could help out...
    So I get a call late last night from my mom, she's upgraded her boyfriend's phone on her Windows Vista PC using iTunes. Although, it's upgraded, but deleted ALL data from the phone.
    The phone doesn't appear in 'My Devices', nor does it appear in the option to 'restore from'... however, there DOES appear to be a file in the backup location (after a LONG time trying to find it on Vista) that appears to have been last modified at the time of data loss - I am presuming this will be the backup file from the boyfriends phone.
    So - how can she go about restoring all the data back to the iPhone?
    I hope this makes sense, any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    I have the same problem. Tried to update, but phone got stuck in the "syncing" phase after backing up and updating the OS (it never went past the first of three steps to sync). Restoring the phone to its factory condition gives me a shiny new, fully-functional phone with absolutely nothing in it. No photos, no text messages, no contacts, no calendar. Some of these items can be restored because they live in the .mac cloud, but the photos and text messages cannot.
    Before the software updated, iTunes made a backup of the current state of the phone. I've tried everything under the sun to restore the phone to this particular backup, but it doesn't finish the process. This backup lives in the ~/Library/Application Support /MobileSync/Backup/ folder.
    Now, your post provides a solution, but I'm afraid I don't understand what it means. Should I move the backup to ~/Library/iTunes/Mobile Backups/Structured and try again? Or should I move something from ~/Library/iTunes/Mobile Backups/Structured into ~/Library/Application Support /MobileSync/Backup/? As of now, the only thing within that Structured folder is a status.plist file.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    thanks,

  • All data lost after upgrade to 4.2.1

    Hi all,
    I have a 3G (possibly 3G s?) and I finally got around to upgrading to ios 4.
    Synced with itunes beforehand, which I thought would have backed everything up, but all photos, contacts, messages etc have disappeared. It also wiped all my music and apps, however these are still in itunes, so I guess I can get them back relatively easily.
    Any advice on how to recover SMS, contacts and photos would be hugely appreciated. This has not been a happy new year...
    Cheers

  • Ipad2 data lost in PC when upgrade to 5.0

    My iPad2 data where lost in my PC after upgrading with iTunes in my PC. Where to search in my PC ? Thanks.

    I have the same problem after updating to 6.0.2 on Win 7 Pro SP1. Did not have any problems prior to upgrade to 6.0.2. (setting IE as default browser - yuk - allows links to be clicked with no problem)

  • Ipod 2 : All data lost after battery empty, Apple logo! *** is this now!?

    I am very upset, i took me countless hours to set up and customize my new ipad 2. Finally i was done, playing "fishfarm" on it, when i noticed the battery was down to 4%. I went to bed, thinking, well the ipad will go to sleep mode soon enough since it was so low on battery power.
    Then the shock when i woke up!!! I wanted to charge my ipad, when i noticed the frigging Apple Logo! I assumed the worse when i had to connect it to itunes.
    Yes, ALL DATA GONE!! Everything, all apps, data, settings, games, it went back to "out of box" mode. I recently upgraded to new software 4.3.3
    This is unacceptable, *** is wrong, did they rush to launch the new ipad when its mainboard wasnt ready? This clearly looks like a major problem, since i dont seem to be the only one having it.
    Apple needs to release a fix ASAP! This doesnt happen with Microsoft software, i never lost all my data at once when working with a MS OS.
    Anyone else with this problem? Luckily i ordered 2 ipads 2 so when i will pick up the other one on Monday, i am sending this one straight back.

    Countless hours? There are only 24 hours in a day.
    Backing up the iPad is as simple as attaching the cable to the iPad and your computer and telling the iTunes app on your computer to make a backup. It takes about 5 minutes usually. You should always backup important data on all computer devices.
    The iPad 2 was not rushed to market. There is nothing wrong with the iPad 2's logicboard. Mine has worked perfectly from day one over a month ago.
    But when a factory assembles millions of electronic devices with dozens of parts from different sources, there may occasionally be a bad one. Call Apple Care and have them walk you through the steps to determine if yours is a lemon or you personally have made a mistake with it, aside from failing to back it up.
