Lost my iPhone 4. Is there any way of rescuing everything that was on it via iCloud, i.e. notes, messages?
I lost my phone last night, although I tracked it on iCloud to my residence...though having turned the house upside down, I still can't find it. Therefore, I need to know whether I can rescue everything including notes and messages and have them on my Mac (MacBook Pro). The iPhone had iCloud on and synced notes and messages, but I can't seem to find it on the online iCloud server (if such a thing even exists). Does anyone know how to access this on the Mac?
Thanks in advance.
If you were backing it up via iCloud, you should be able to restore your data to a replacement iPhone running iOS 5.1.

You have to start by erasing the phone so if there's any newer data on it that is not contained in your last backup, you'll need to save that first. Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup. Then sign into your iCloud account and choose your backup to restore from.
Be sure you phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this may take a while to finish. -
My daughter's iPhone was stolen. Is there any way to recover photos that she would have backed up to the Cloud? Note, we did not have photoshare running.
Camera roll photos are included in the backup. The backup includes:
Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
App data
Home screen and app organization
Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
Ringtones
Visual Voicemails

I reset my ipad, is there any way to recover something that was in my notes app?
I reset my ipad2 for donation and realized that i had a very important story in the notes app. is there any way to recover the info???? i know it is a long shot - but thought i would ask?
jstaffo1You can go to iCloud.com to see if your notes ever made it to the server.
Or you can check to see if you have an iTunes back up on the computer.
If you do have a back up, you could restore from it to see if the notes happened to get saved.

I accidentally clicked "restore" when I meant to "back up" on my iphone 5, is there anyway I can undo that and get back to what I had?
Once the Device is being Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Restore from the most recent Backup...

Is there any way to recover music that was lost during a system reboot
i was under the empression that my music was backed up under the clowd but after preforming a reboot i cant find my music is ther anything i can do to recover this
It has always been very basic for you to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
If for some reason you have failed to do this, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

My laptop hard drive crashed and I lost my ringtones, but they're still on my iPhone. If I sync my iPhone with the reimaged hard drive, I'll lose the ringtones from my iPhone. Is there any way to transfer ringtones from my iPhone back into iTunes?
Thanks, but ringtones not purchased from iTunes, created them just before computer crashed.just before the next scheduled biweekly backup.
I found and downloaded TouchCopy 12 for PC and was able to copy the ringtones from my iPhone to my Windows laptop very easily. It also enables you to transfer photos, memos, voice messages, etc. -

The computer that had my iTunes account on has broken, and was thrown away.
All the media I bought on it are on my iPhone only - is there any way to re-open my iTunes on the new computer or to download them off my iPhone?
I'm worried that if I lose my iPhone all will be lost. Please help!
Thanks,
AlastairBuy yourself a backup drive. Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer is structured around you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer. The exception is purchased content.

For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software unless you have an older model iPod. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

IF she set up find ny ipod on the ipod itself BEFORE it was lost, AND it is on, AND it is connected to wi-fi, then she may be able to get an approximate street address using the find my ipod service.
Otherwise, no.

If you don't know your lost/stolen iPad's serial number, use the instructions below. The S/N is also on the iPad's box.

Check the serial number (located on back/bottom) in this lost/stolen iPad database. However, most owners are not aware of this database and don’t enter the serial number.

Also do a search, using the serial number, on your local Craig’s List. Some users list the serial number of a stolen iPad to thwart the sale of a stolen device.

Phone: iPhone 4
iOS: 6.1
Previous backups: None
I was syncing my contacts to iCloud (went to Settings > iCloud and turned Contacts to "On"), but after the first 3 contacts, it stopped syncing.
I went to Settings > iCloud and turned Contacts to "Off". I was given 2 options: "Keep contacts on iPhone" or "Delete contacts from iPhone".
I selected "Keep contacts". Now all other contacts except those first 3 have been deleted from my phone.
I have no other backups of my iPhone. Is there any way for me to recover the lost contacts?All media and apps on the device should already be in iTunes on the computer.
If you have forgotten the restrictions passcode, the ONLY option is to restore as new.
Then sync back any media, apps, contacts, etc back to the device.
You can not restore from backup as the restrictions passcode is included in the backup. -
HT1937 i lost my iphone 4 is there any possible i could trace the location of the phone?
i lost my iphone 4 is there any possible i could trace the location of the phone?
The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords, especially your Apple ID/iCloud password NOW!
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, and running iOS 7.0, then phone cannot be activated or the passcode removed without knowing your Apple iD/Password. It will be nothing but a useless paperweight.
If not running iOS 7.0, the phone can be forced into recovery mode & restored.
