Lost iphone now replaced - how do I retrieve any messages sent to me in the interim period?
Hi there,
I recently lost my iphone 4 on the underground. I put in a claim and have just received my replacement. It's been over a week since i lost my phone, i didnt have automatic sync with icloud set up before (i do now) and so my restore isn't as complete as it could have been.
I'm not so worried about the loss of old messages / pictures etc (par for the course), but i was my birthday the day i lost my phone and i missed half of the messages i was sent - I would really like to get these back if i can.
is there anyway that i can get messages sent to me since the phone was lost restored to my new phone?
Many thanks!
Jodi
Now why didn't i think of that? Thanks very much - i'll give it a go this evening.

i just opened my mail on icloud and all messages disappeared from the last year! I have one email left in my inbox which is the most recent. I moved to icloud 2 weeks ago and it has been working fine until now. How can I retrieve old messages? Thank you.
I guess you could try but I don't believe Apple can help with activation lock issues. They may, however, be able to determine if the Apple ID belongs to one of you and reset the password for you if you can prove your identity.
You might want to try calling Apple by going to https://expresslane.apple.com; click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. Perhaps they can help determine if it's your ID and reset the password for you (and they probably have more expertise in doing this than the Apple store). -
Several people have been very kind and shared info to me. The one I am desperate for at the moment is the person who shared their great, detailed credit card Excel spread sheet. I am in such a state now, I cannot even recall who it was. I have done several computer searches, e-mail searches, etc., trying to find the spreadsheet. I can't believe even the info here at myFICO in my settings was affected, but it was. Maybe because I had to change some log in info. Regardless, please will that someone email the spreadsheet to me here again. I will be forever greatful.
While that may work9I do not think it will) with iTunes purchased music it will not work for other music.
- Transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- For other music you will need a third-party program like one of those discussed here.

I accidently put a photo in the trash on my iphone 4s. How can I retrieve it?
i accidently put a photo in the trash on my iphone 4s. How do I retrieve it and take it out of the trash?
There's no "trash can" on any iOS device. If not backed up, your photo is most likely gone. There are third-party iOS data recovery programs available that claim to be able to retrieve deleted data like this. You can use Google to search for them. None are cheap & I have no experience with any, thus cannot recommend any.

Help, I have just restored my iphone from last back up to retrieve vital messages that somehow disappeared. Now I have lost the most recent messages, calendar details and photos. How do I get them back?
I have an iPhone 5SYou restore from the backup that contained them.
Restoring from a backup is all or nothing. It completely overwrites the data in the phone when you restore. You can not combine the contents of a backup with what's currently on your phone. -
I recently removed an outlook account and now all of my calendar events are missing. The majority of them were added from my iphone 4s. How do I retrieve the events? Backing up with iCloud did not help, as I assumed it would.
Outlook is a mail client for PC's (and Macs). It is not a type of account. Do you mean an "Exchange Account"?
If so, then re-add it. The calendar events live on the Exchange Server. The only way to get them back is to re-add the account to the phone. The contents of Exchange and IMAP accounts are not part of the 'backup' as they already exist elsewhere. -

i lost my iPhone recently and how can i retrieve it using my Apple ID? also, how to turn icloud on using Itunes even if the phone's lost?
Unless you had enabled Find My iPhone on it before it was lost then there isn't any way to locate it (it can only be turned on directly on the phone, it can't be done remotely). If you did enable it then you could try locating it either via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPhone disabled on it.
If you think that it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc. -

I've lost my Aps icon, how can i retrieve this?
I have lost my Aps icon, how can I retrieve this. I was told by Apple to restore my phone which resulted with me losing everything but still cannot retrieve the icon, can anyone help?
I assume you mean the App Store? If so, it cannot be deleted. It's either on another screen, in a folder or has been restricted under Settings > General > Restrictions.
If none of those, try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout. -

Were you unable to find it, given a somewhat accurate map of its location? Or did you find it? If so, start using it again. What are you asking?

If the phone isn't working, you can't. If you have a backup on your computer, you may be able to extract them from the backup using 3rd party software such as iPhone Backup Extractor (see http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com).
