My Pro is in the repair shop and I need to back up iPhone as it's developed a fault. How do I do it on old laptop so I keep all the photos

so I have a phone that needs urgent back up as I really want to keep the content.  It's been a month since last back-up and there are photos/videos of the kids I want to keep.  the machine I usually back-up to has a problem with the graphics card and is with Apple and then my Iphone 3GS started playing up.  Took  that in and Apple said they need to replace the whole unit.  I need to back up my phone to an old laptop that I have just installed iTunes to.  I did the right click on the iPhone in iTunes and selected back-up and this took about 10 mins.  My question is that if I get my replacement device and hook up to the laptop and restore from back-up will all my pics and apps be there? (not worried about music as have that all in library on my pro)  Any advice would be really appreciated. Thanks Felicity

You should be importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

  • I'm thinking of using Final Cut Pro to straighten slightly crooked footage and then re-import back to iMovie to complete the video. Does this have any impact on image quality?

    As your rotate the image, you will begin to see black edges. So, as Tom implies, the image must be scaled up to hide those voids. If you shot 4k ad are editing in a HD timeline, no problem, lots of room to spare. If you shot 1080 and are editing in a 1080 timeline, you will run into issues at a certain point. However, if your 1080 project is going to be transcoded to 720 or ye olde DVD you won't notice any deterioration at all.

  • After editing in lightroom, i transferred the photo to final cut pro. However the photo that shows in final cut pro is the unedited version and a bit blurry. Any ideas?

    IIs there an export function from Lightroom? Did you export? Does the exported file contain your edit?
    THe hard drive file size doesn't matter. What matters is the image size, it's dimensions in pixels.

  • So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date, is there a way to get it all back?

    So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date,and it also kept the notes from after the backup. The "reset all settings" option clearly says no loss of data or media, so I don't understand why some stuff got deleted. My question is, is there a way to get it back?

    If you still can find a recent backup listed in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, use this one to restore from.
    If there are no recent backups listed, your data is gone. Only if you included the iTunes backup folder into your computer backup routine, you could be able to restore this folder and find one of your latest backups listed again.

    You can't.  If there was a way to get into the phone and backup data without a passcode, what would be the purpose of the passcode?
    Either think harder, or prepare to lose all your data. 

  • I deleted my playlist off my iPhone (on my phone not on iTunes) and it deleted the playlists from my iTunes and I NEED them back...how?

    It seems TOO MANY people are having this same problem.  Honestly, Apple is just dirt now...more problems than now.  I need help asap. 
    I went onto iTunes and clicked on my phone's name in the upper right corner.  I have my music set on 'selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres' which this usually means, I just click below to which playlists I want on my phone.  However, none of my playlists were updating (none of the new songs I added to my playlists already on my phone were transfering) so I went on my phone and simply deleted the playlists there, then was planning on re-syncing them on my phone from iTunes on my computer.  BUT when I went onto my iTunes, somehow ALL my playlists were deleted EVEN THOUGH I ONLY DELETED THEM OFF MY PHONE NOT MY COMPUTER!  THESE PLAYLISTS ARE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT AND I NEED THEM BACK NOW!  I tried using the backup, which was done before the playlists were deleted, but of course Apple, it did not work.  Great job, there.  I just want these playlists back, both on my computer and on my phone.  I have plenty of space free to hold these playlists/songs.
    Apples exceptional failure of everything iPhone and iTunes related is too maturfully pathetic I don't know if I have the patience or time to deal with this company anymore, even though I have been along for the ride since the first iPhone came out.  Congratulations, Steve Jobs would be so happy with how far Apple's sunk.
    Problems:
    Video's not synching
    Playlists not updating
    Playlists deleting from iTunes when simply deleted from iPhone
    New songs not transfering to iPhone
    My battery jumping from 30% to 5% in less than a minute
    My phone completely shutting down at 30% and not turning back on, saying it needs to be charged
    When above happens, and I plug it in, after it turns back on, it pumps straight to 30% battery again
    Lock screen not always locking, even though it is set to 1 minute

    I'm not ranting at you, I'm ranting at Apple. 
    Yes, I backed it up.  It did not work when I tried this to get my playlists back.

    Reinstall iPhoto.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

    my husband is in the military, and we are overseas due to his orders, and really need to unlock our iPhone 4, how can we?

    Only the carrier an iPhone is locked to can authorize the phone's official unlocking. There is no other way to get any iPhone officially unlocked. Apple can't/won't help you.
    You need to contact your carrier.

  • I'm from israel and i need to use my iphone Warranty Where should I send the device?

    hi,
    i'm from israel and i need to use my iphone Warranty Where should I send the device to fix some problem?

    Depends on where the device was purchased.
    If it was purchased in Israel, take it to an authorized service center in Israel.
    If it was purchased elsewhere, you'll need to take it back to the country it was purchased in for support.

  • HT201543 how do i get my old itune library onto my new laptop, my old laptop is broken but all media is on my phone. Most of the songs are from CD's which i no longer have. HELP!

    How do I get my old iTunes library onto my new laptop? My old laptop is broken but all media is on my phone. Most of the songs are from CD's which I no longer have. HELP!

    That is not necessarily true. You are allowed to make a back-up of media you own and, at least in the Netherlands, even a copy of a work you've borrowed from a library. The law expressly permits this and you pay a certain amount for recordable media to allow for home use.  See http://www.thuiskopie.nl/nl for this.  If you then decide to destroy the media, i.e. do not transfer the media to someone else, I don't see how you infringe copyright by keeping the back-up. But I guess some so-called creatives like the idea of making money in all kinds of hypothetical ways...
    It is a nice dream, where you have to work once and then earn a lot of money by selling millions of copies from your work. But buyers can make copies too!! Hahahahahaha!

  • If i backup my iphone on my laptop will it save all my photos in my apps when i restore it?

    if i backup my iphone on my laptop will it save all my photos in my apps when i restore it?

    Only photos taken with the phone are part of the backup, copied from: iTunes: About iOS backups
    Camera Roll (Photos, screenshots, images saved, and videos taken. Videos greater than 2 GB are backed up with iOS 4.0 and later.)
    Note: For devices without a camera, Camera Roll is called Saved Photos.
