IPhone 4s update was interrupted and message said phone had to be reset to factory settings.  Lost all photos from phone in process of transferring to pc.  Copy of my backup overroad that phone and all the old data and photos are gone.

My boyfriend and I share an iTunes account. I just tried to update his phone and during the update an error message occurred saying that his phone had to be reset to factory settings.  It said it was an un setup phone and needed plugged in to iTunes.  With no other choice, we had to select reset to factory settings. Now, my phone backup through iCloud downloaded onto his and all of his contacts and photos were overridden by mine.  His photos were in process of transferring from the phone to the pc while this occurred and over 900 of them were complete when this happened.  They don't show up on the pc now either since the sycn wasn't finished.  Is there a way to get them back?  When we plug his phone in now it shows my name instead of his so I'm not sure how to get to an old version of his backups even. 

Error -1 indicates a hardware issue with the device.

The device should still have warranty but unfortunately any service needs to be done in the US.

Is it possible for you to send the device home and have a family member take it to the Apple Store?

  • My 2 TB Time Capsule's memory is full because it will not automatically delete old files as it is supposed to, so it is giving me zero backup of my two computers now.  How can this be fixed so my Time Capsule deletes the old data and saves the new?

    My 2 TB Time Capsule’s memory is full because it will notautomatically delete old files as it is supposed to, so it is giving me zerobackup of my two computers now. How can this be fixed so my Time Capsule deletes the old data and savesthe new?
    Neither my local computer consultant nor I have been ableto change any of the settings in Time Machine to correct this problem.  Working with the choices in the TimeMachine, there does not appear that there is any way to change the frequency ofthe backups either, so, after a year has elapsed, the time capsule is full, andmy only choice appears to be to erase all the current data on the Time Capsuleand start over, something that I do not want to at all let alone repeat on anannual basis.  My questions are:
    What can be done to have my Time Capsule delete old filesas it is supposed to do, so it has memory available to allow my computers toback up? 
    Is this a software problem that can be fixed online or isdoes this require a mechanical fix of defective hardware?

    How much data is being backed-up from each Mac?  (see what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in Time Machine Prefs > Options).
    Is there any other data on your Time Capsule, besides the backups?
    Most likely, there just isn't room.  Time Machine may be trying to do a very large (or full) backup of one or both Macs, and can't.  Since it won't ever delete the most recent backup, there has to be enough room for one full backup plus whatever it's trying to back up now, plus 20% (for workspace).

  • My Windows 7 laptop had to be reset to factory settings and iTunes was wiped. I have all my songs and playlists on my iPod. Is there anyway to transfer the songs back over, but storing the number of plays I have and carrying across my playlists too?

    My laptop had a few problems and it had to be reset to factory settings. Meaning my iTunes was wiped clean and I had to reinstall it. My previous iTunes (and current iPod nano) has 13 playlists, over 2000 songs and a record of plays going back 2 years (which i would like back since a lot of my playlists are play based).
    I've followed guides online, and i've managed to get my songs from my iPod to my computer and thus onto iTunes again. But neither the play count, nor the playlists are transferring with these methods.
    Considering when I first bought this laptop I had to redo all my playlists and I KNOW how time consuming and bloody annoying it was I'd rather not do it again.
    Is there anyone that can give me a step by step guide of how to do this?
    I would GREATLY appreciate this, as at current i'm refusing to sync my iPod again as I am so desperate to cling onto the playlists and plays I have, which means no new songs...
    Please help if you can.

    The Ipod works fine.
    Battery charges regularly with the occasional glitch.
    Running iTunes 11.1.1.11
    I figured a Nano would probably connect in a simpler way than the touch, but only have a couple computers and cables to test.
    I've reinstalled iTunes, but not the full suite, and not all traces. I will attempt this, but I suspect its related to my touch. I was able to connect other iphones to my itunes without issue, using the same cable.

  • I have tried everything I know to retrieve the iPhoto Library app.  I detest this new Photo app, which obviously wasn't designed with photographers in mind.  I desperately need help in retrieving the old app and have not been able to do it so far.

    I have tried everything I know to retrieve the iPhoto Library app.  I detest this new Photo app, which obviously wasn't designed with photographers in mind.  I desperately need help in retrieving the old app and have not been able to do it so far.  I have gone to my app folder and tried to update my iPhoto Library.  I have gone to my trash and brought it over to my desktop and still cannot use it.  Please help!

    Try this fix discovered by User photosb189:
    From Finder, hold down the option key on your keyboard and click on the Go menu at the top of the screen
    Select Library from the drop down menu
    Then navigate to Application Support > iLifeAssetManagement > assets
    Right click on the 'sub' folder and choose Compress
    Drag the resulting zip file to your Desktop (as a backup)
    Go to your System Preferences and choose iCloud
    Turn OFF the iCloud Photos option
    Go back to Library > Application Support and DELETE the iLifeAssetManagement folder
    Now, in System Preferences, turn the iCloud Photos option ON
    iPhoto should now be able to launch. Give it enough time to re-download your Photo Stream content. if you are missing any of your My Photo Stream photos (more than 30 days old), unzip the sub folder on your desktop and drag that into iPhoto.

  • My laptop had to be reset to factory settings. prior to that i had all my itunes songs stored on a portable drive. how do i get itunes to recognize the drive as its library?

    my laptop had to be reset to factory settings. prior to that i had all my itunes songs stored on a portable drive. how do i get itunes to recognize the drive as its library?

    If the library file is on the external drive, hold <SHIFT> while launching iTunes.  When it prompts to select a library file or create a new one, point it to the location of the library file.
    If the library file was on the internal harddrive, easiest solution is to restore it from the backup.  If no backup exists, use File > Add Folder to library.  Also under Edit > Preferences > Advanced, change the library location unless you want iTunes to move the media to the internal drive.

  • How do I transfer all photos from my Imac, IPhoto version 7.1.5, to another Imac, IPhoto version 9.2, but keep the two sets of photos separate

    How do I transfer all photos from my Imac, IPhoto version 7.1.5, to another Imac, IPhoto version 9.2, but keep the two sets of photos separate

    You need to clarify what you are asking.
    An iphoto installation has two major parts: 1. The application or program - that's the software and 2. The Library - that's where your actual pictures are.
    So when you say:
    I want to keep using the old Iphoto program on the new Imac.  There is already an IPhoto program on the new Imac but I do not want to add or delete from that one.
    It sounds like you want to move the application and not the Library. Most folks want to move the Library, and it makes no sense to have two versions of the application on your mac.

  • Downloading latest update but now phone only shows charge cable and itunes symbol. Says I must reset to factory settings. Will I lose my data, pics, notes etc!

    Downloaded latest update version it finished but then said verifying. Had to unplug and now it shows charge symbol and itunes logo and that i must reset to factory settings. I can not do any anything else with phone. Will I lose my notes, pics, data etc? Or can an Apple store fix?

    It's in recovery mode. If it wasn't backed up before you started, the information is already gone. There is nothing left on the phone at this point.

  • Would an iPhone 5c still come up as stolen if it had been restored to its factory settings and the original sim was taken out

    My foster parents don't like me that much so they took my phone that I paid for with my own hard earned money and got it turned off. Well I took it back and reset it and took the sim card out because I paid for that phone I should have it.

    I suspect your foster parents love you more than you realize but they took the phone away because you've done something they don't approve of. I suggest you have a talk with them.

  • Deleting the old data and keep the current

    Whenever i load the table with new feed, i want to have only the 1 year of data.
    for example, if i load the data on 28-Apr-2012, then i should have the data only from 28--Apr-2011 to 28-Apr-2012.
    The older data should be removed from the table
    How efficiently we can achieve this? in stead of issuing the delete query before every load.
    Thanks

  • My old computer had to be reset to factory settings . And I bought a new computer. How do I authorize them so I can get my music and purchased movies back? Lost :(

    I have an Ipad with it opn but it will not authorize . And my daughters I phone has my account as well but will not authrize either.

    Authorizing the computer does not make content magically appear.
    Restore the media and other important files from the backup of the computer.
    If for some silly reason you have failed to maintain a backup (not smart), download past purchases from iTunes.  FYI, not all content is available for redownload.

  • Upload Demand Data adds up to the old data for SAP SPP

    While uploading demand data using csv files, it adds the demand values again if uploaded for same part- same time- location again.
    Do we an option in the data upload process, where in we can configure it so that it overwrites the old data and add the new data.

    Hi Bhargav ,
    When you are repetitively load the same data, there exists the requests in  request tab page of Manage Data Targets which  are active and again you are loading the same data with different request ,hence it gets added ,
    If you don't want then you need to delete this old request and then load the data or in InfoPackage in Update Tab page you can select the delta update or full update option .

    My old PC died and I got a new one.  I was able to back up the old PC and downloaded my iTunes library on the new PC.  I keep getting  a message saying: "This computer is no longer authorized to play purchased items that are on this iPod.  Would you like to authorize this computer for the items purchased from the iTunes store?"   I have authorized the new PC, but it continues to ask me over and over, and if I authorize it again, it tells me I already authorized.  So frustrating!  I deactivated the old PC and activated the new one.
    Also, I purchased a song from iTunes store and while it shows in my library on the PC, it won't download to the iPod.  Why won't the new song download to the iPod?
    Any ideas. suggestions?

    Well Authorize the Computer...........

  • I recently got my iPhone 5 unlocked and the other day I updated my phone to ios 7. After doing so my phone shut off and turned on and it said I had no service. I guess it completely wiped out my unlock. I was wondering if anyone knows what I can do!

    How, EXACTLY, did you get it "unlocked"? ONLY the carrier it's locked to can authorize unlocking it. Anything else is a hack.
