Missing iPhone need back up

Missing iPhone need backup

I'm sorry but your post doesn't make much sense. What is it you're trying to do? Your back up is where ever you backed up your phone to, either your computer or iCloud.

Missing iPhone needs locked/erased!!!!!

My iPhone 3s w/iOS 6 (only active on wifi/no sim) is missing. It's presumed to be in a wifi area. It shares iCloud with my active iPhone 4s w/iOS 8. Is there a way I can remotely lock/disable/erase it using my 4s? Find my phone not active on 3s but iCloud is.

Hi,
usually when you upgrade, it should not delete your files, but if it happens, than you should have a backup.
Unfortunately it is very common, that people don't know, what exactly is in the backup.
The question is, what files exactly you are missing? Own pictures, or taken with the device? Purchased music form the iTunes Store, or own? ....
Documents and files are mostly up to the developer of the app, if they are part of the backup, usually not and you need to transfer them before.
In the backup you will find just pictures from the Camera Rolle folder, everything else you should have on the PC, if you had it on the device.
Same then for music, you can transfer purchased music from the device, but your own works just one direction, from PC to device, from device to PC it doesn't work.
In future I recomand you to be sure how the backup works or use a 3rd party app (iExplorer) where you have a little bit more "freedome" than with iTunes.
Or you maybe just restored from the worng backup

I need to back up and sync multiple iPhones to a single iMac. Each iPhone has a separate Apple ID and the data from each iPhone needs to be backed up separately from the others. How can I do this without getting all of the contacts, etc. mixed? Tnx

When I restore my iphone, all my music and ring tone are missing. Does Backing up by iphone backup my music and ring tone?

It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
Set you phone up as a new device and start over.

I want to tranfer non purchased music from my iphone 4s back onto my PC that I have re-formatted due to errors.

I have backed up the iphone onto my newly installed version of itunes.
All the purchased albums/songs have been tranferred.
I tried to tranfer by ticking the sync box but its says it will wipe the iphone and replace it with the new library which has only a fraction of my 1000+ songs.
I have read many reviews that say it can be done with a third party program but when I looked into this they offer free evaluation but want about £20 for the program but feel this can be done at no cost.
The itunes is saying my iphone can only be synced to one PC but the original one is wiped.
Am I right in thinking I should go ahead with syncing the iphone then do the restore. Im just worried that once its synced the music and photos/videos will be gone forever.
If I go down this route, I think I still need to know how to tranfer the non purchased songs from my iphone back onto the PC with the newly reinstalled itunes.

Then you will have to purchase 3rd party software.

No. You will lose the music that's on the phone if you do that.
The iPhone is not a backup device. Restore the music to your computer using the backup you should have made of your data before you re-formatted it. If you didn't back up your computer, you will have to pay for software to try and extract it from the phone.

My iphone is backing up to icloud but not my macbook air nor my iMac. Any ideas?

I use Time Machine with an external HD. That seems to do what I need. Others also recommend an second EHD with a bootable clone of your boot drive and use a 3rd party app like Carbon Copy Cloner, SuperDuper, Synk Pro, etc. to keep the clone up to date.
In addition to Time Machine I have a hard drive that I keep key files backed up with Synk Pro which does incremental backups, i.e. copying only those new or modified files. For other candidates for the cloning and backup apps to go MacUpdate.com and search for "file backup" and "clone".

HT4623 iPhone needs to be restored from sync. can I disconnect and finish later?

My iPhone needs to be restored from sync. can I disconnect and finish later? Apparently something didn't work and I haven't yet found the answer. Afraid my iPhone has been wiped.

Sadly, there isn't. Some of your phone's items may be stored in the backup file the phone makes during sync. Unfortunently, should those items not be in the back up file they are gone for good.

Will I lose my photos in recovery mode? I tried to update to latest software and I received a message that iphone needs to be updated to factory settings. Please help. I cannot use iphone.

I would "guess", since you were in the middle of backing up, your backup is corrupt & most likely unusable. Only one way to find out though, & that's by trying to restore from that backup. If your pics are not there, they are gone.

Have a missing iPhone. I have 3 year old Mac, what must I do to get iCloud running on my machine? Thank you

Missing iPhone. No iCloud on Mac to assist in locating phone. What must I do to load iCloud on my Mac? Thank you for any help.

If all you want to do is use Find My iPhone to track a missing device, you do that from icloud.com as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f2442. You don't need to set up iCloud on your Mac to do this.
If you want to set up iCloud on your Mac anyway, you can do that as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html (requires OS X Lion 10.7.2 or higher).

Buy more iCloud storage - force iPhone to back up w/out access?

Here's my dilemma....
I changed my passcode. I quickly forgot my passcode. My phone is now disabled. I had 15GB of iCloud storage (upgraded) but had recently (past month) been getting a message that I didn't have any storage left.....
I want to restore my phone from iCloud; however I don't want to potentially lose items (contacts, photos, etc) that were added the past month.
Hopefully this makes sense.
Thanks for any insight you may have

I haven't sync'd to a computer..... I was given the iphone 5 for xmas and I was scared to sync to iTunes because I've done that with my 4 and lost stuff......
So when i set up the 5, i simply restored from iCloud. Worked great.
Right away it said I needed more iCloud so I upgraded to 15. Probably in early May i started getting messages that i needed more. Just hadn't gotten around to upgrading again.
So ideally, I could log into iCloud from my Mac, upgrade to 25 - somehow force my iPhone to back up then restore from iCloud. Not sure if its possible but seems like a good idea

IPhone buy back programs

Does anyone know of any in-store iPhone buy back programs? I have an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 3GS, and I'd like to see if I can get any money for them before I junk them or give them away to friends/family.
I called AT&T today to say i had just received my iPhone 5 friday and wanted to sell back my old ones. They gave me a ball park of $50-$80 for the 3GS and $120 and up for the 4. He said I could receive cash, in-store credit, or immediately put it towards a new phone. So I got in my car and drove 30 min to the closest AT&T. When I got there she quoted the 3GS at $60 and the 4 at about $135. "Deal, I'll just take the cash", I said. She told me they don't offer cash for iPhones, so I frustratedly and hesitantly told her to just apply the value to my bill. At least I get about 2 months free service right? Wrong. She said the only thing she could give me was an in-store credit for a phone or accessories. I explained to her that I just spoke to someone on the phone at their location and he said cash. She then asked me if she should go ahead and return them for credit. I said no and angrily described to her that I don't need a second iPhone 5, nor do I need a $190 gift card to spend on their huge selection of about 2 total iPhone 5 accessories. I thanked her for one of their employees wasting an hour of my time, and I left.
Has anyone had better luck anywhere else? I'd rather do it in-store so I can be given a value up front, instead of mailing it in on a quote, and then receiving far less in the long run based on someone's opinion of normal wear and tare.

I second the Gazelle option. It couldn't be any easier. Yeah, you'll get more on Ebay or Craigslist, but I like the no hassle approach on Gazelle. You choose your phone, select the condition, print a label, and ship it to them. A few days later, you'll have money in your PayPal account. You can also get an Amazon gift card or they'll send you a check. If you don't have a box, they'll ship you one (postage already prepaid).

Possibly.
Take it to an Apple store and have them check it out.
