Is there any way to retrieve photos and videos from my water damaged iPhone 6?

My iPhone 6 appears to be water damaged and won't turn on. At this point, I'm ready to give up on the phone but I'd like to retrieve data from the phone if possible - especially photos and videos. Is there any way to do this? I have seen suggestions to take it to the Apple Store, but with the nearest one just over an hour away, I would be very disappointed to drive all that way just to be told there's nothing they can do.

Thanks, John. I should have specified - no  iCloud back up. I would have maxed it out with the first backup, so I didn't do it. I back up to my computer, but hadn't done that in about a month. Big lesson learned here. I have a new phone and am setting up iCloud!! I'm trying to allow all my family's devices to back up to the same iCloud - that's the new challenge

  • Is there any way to retrieve photos that were put in the trash can and then it was emptied?  Or is there a way to move photos from an imovie to iphoto?

    Is there any way to retrieve photos that were put in the trash can and then it was emptied?  Or is there a way to move photos from an imovie to iphoto?

    If you've emptied the trash, ehtn no. However if you have a backup, like Time Machine, or a recent backup copy of your photo library you could recover the photos from the trash.
    The answer to getting a snapshot form iMovie depends on what version you have.
    I should add it technically may be possible to recover the emptied trash, but if you really want to do that you would need to download a utility software that can attempt to recover deleted files. Do it soon before you start writing more data to that disk. At the moment I don't have a recommendation for such a program. Maybe someone else out there will offer suggestion.

    Not unless you recover it.

  • Is there any way to retrieve photos from a 5c that has gone into recovery mode?

    is there any way to retrieve photos from a 5c that has gone into recovery mode?

    No, by the time its in recovery mode it's too late. The contents of the phone are gone. Did enable any of the ways that Apple provides to back up photos?
    Backup the phone to your computer
    Automatic daily iPhone backup to iCloud
    enable Photo Stream
    Copy photos to your computer using a USB cable and a compatible photo management utility on your computer
    Enable Photo Sharing
    Enable Photo Library backup
    OR any of the 3rd party photo management solutions, such as Google Picasa, Google+, Facebook, Shutterfly?
    OR any of the cloud sharing services such as box.com or dropbox?
    If you have set up any one of these your photos can be retrieved from it.

  • Hi, haven't used iMovie in years.  I shot some video with my cell phone camera (Samsung Galaxy S2).  When I tried to make a movie, the clips I downloaded played back sideways on iMovie.  Is there any way I an flip the video from horizontal to vertical?

    You actually want a vertical video??
    What would you show that on?!
    Rotating video or photos in iMovie 11:

    In earlier versions of iMovie you can also do this using Quicktime Pro 7:
    Open MOV file in QT Pro (QT 7.6.6)
    Window -> Show Movie Properties
    select "Video Track"
    select "Visual Settings" from lower window
    check "Preserve Aspect Ratio"
    Click on appropriate rotation icon (MOV rotates!)
    Click back on the open MOV in Player Window
    FILE -> Save
    You can also do this using TransformMovie, available here:

  • Is there any way to retrieve past appointment information from Iphone calendar.  All disappeared. (kind of important, Apple)

    I need to find past work dates and information for taxes and claims, etc, but the calendar app seems to have erased everything dating back further than a few weeks. Is there any way to retrieve this? The IOS walk thru doesnt explain that not syncing ALL EVENTS means they'll all be erased.  Dumb.  This is kind of imprtant, Apple, for an 'everything' device.  Please advise. Post-setting to 'all events' has not restored the info... Thank you!

    Not sure what you mean by 'turn off calendars'.  Do you mean under 'accounts' that i should delete the  previously synched calendar accounts from the iphone and then turn it back on?  This will restore all the information?
    thank you.

  • Is there any way to retrieve deleted texts messages from KIN TWO M?

    is there any way to retrieve deleted texts messages on KIN TWO M?

    Unfortunately, no, not unless you had them backed up somewhere (like with bitpim software).  Once the texts are deleted from the phone, they're gone.

  • With supervised ipads, what is the best way to transfer photos and videos from the ipad to the PC? Wireless transfer is not an option in our circumstances

    With supervised ipads, what is the best way to transfer photos and videos to the PC? Wireless transfer is not an option in our circumstances.

    There are only two ways of transfering things on the iPad.
      - via WiFi
      - via usb cable
    From what I have read, you need to connect to iTunes on the supervising PC.

  • I have accidently removed my missing ipod form the icloud Find My Iphone, is there any way to retrieve it and locate it?, I have accidently removed my missing ipod form the icloud Find My Iphone, is there any way to retrieve it and locate it?

    My Ipod touch was lost at school a few days ago, and when I went to icloud, i located and found where the person who has my ipod lives. The cops were called so they could retrieve it, but as to have proof i have none, because i have accidently removed my ipod touch from icloud Find My iPhone. I am now wondering if there's any way to retrieve the device back onto icloud if it was once on there. I can't locate it now and show the proof, is there any other way to locate your ipod touch or to restore it back onto icloud?

    Your proof is your receipt.
    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with your bank or any savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  Something as small as an iPod should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • Is there any way to retrieve photos from a dead iphone 4?

    The mainboard on my wife's iPhone 4 has died maybe due to water. It's dead and I've had it confirmed by apple. Photostream was not on and it wasn't backed up in a long time.

    no, there is no way to retrieve your photos short of some forensic service that would likely cost you thousands of dollars.

  • Is there any way to retrieve photos from an IPhone backup on a PC?

    Recently restored iPhone. Realized camera roll pix had not been synced properly. Attempted to retrieve photos to no avail. Where do the pix reside and can i retrieve them on a PC back to the phone? Any help appreciated.

    If the photos were on the iphone when the last sync was performed, then you should be able to restore from backup.

  • Is there any way to recover my ipod's data after water damage ?

    My ipod fell in water (toilet). I turned it on to see if it still worked (I know I shouldn't had to) and the screen hardly worked. The morning after nothing worked so i put it in a sock beside the refrigerator ( warm and dry place).I've been constantly travelling so i couldn't take it to a specialist. I had some really important recordings (dictaphone app) and i'd like to know if there is any way to recover them. Thank you SO MUCH for taking your time to read this. Have a nice day

    I did and was told that they're waiting on the replacement of the defective screen.  The battery is slowly draining, so it doesn't seem that they're using it, I was just hoping there was a way to double check without saying flat out that I'm starting to not trust them.  KWIM?  I'm  nowthinking that once the battery dies, I'm going to activate the lost mode and hope for the best.
