N8 - Backup / How to Restore Backup

So I have backed up my N8 to my memory card F:Backup and there is:
Bookmark.arc
Calendar.arc
Contacts.arc
Messages.arc
Settings.arc
UserFiles.arc
but how to restore the backup?
If I go to Applications - Office - File mgr. - MENU nothing there.
If I hold down the Backup Menu it takes me straight inside Backup, the icon only shows Backup and nothing about restore function

I can't use Ovi (which I'm not entirely worried about), but I really want the new Anna software, which requires Ovi to download! If you know how to get the update without Ovi, that would be amazing. It only gives the option of using my PC.
I can't use Ovi because of a failure to install drivers, so Ovi won't recognise my n8. Foolishly, Nokia told me to do a hard reset to fix it, and when it didn't work I couldn't restore it from the memory card! Great advice from the post a couple above about using a USB, that totally worked.
Ps, the spellchecker on here doesn't have the word 'Ovi'

Hi Vishal,
Simply, nobody can do something to stand alone system remotely, I guess.
There's no way to restore databases remotely to offline system, too.
You have to do it manually.

Then click "OK"
That's it.

How to restore pictures from iphone 4 without backup, how to restore pictures from iphone 4 without backup

Photos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
When connecting a new iPhone with iTunes that was/is used for syncing with another iPhone, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or set up the iPhone as a new iPhone. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup and you chose to transfer the backup for your iPhone 3G to your iPhone 4 which replaced the Camera Roll comtents on your iPhone 4 with the Camera Roll contents on your 3G or that are incuded with the backup for your 3G. Had you selected to set up your iPhone 4 as a new iPhone instead, the Camera Roll contents that were on your iPhone 4 would not have been touched.
If you didn't import the photos that were in the Camera Roll with your iPhone 4 before choosing to transfer the backup for your iPhone 3G, the photos are gone and cannot be recovered. iTunes did what you instructed it to do.

How to restore backup from different device

Hallo... seems I have problem with downloading backup from my older ipad mini (16gb) into newer ipad mini retina (32gb)... during the first setup it aksed me if I want to restore backup from older device, but since my older ipad and its backup was on ios 8.0.2 and newly purchased ipad was still on 7.1.2 i needed to skip this and upgrade os first. now I have new device set up and running ios 8 but I can not get into it backup from older device. what to do?

Resetting the iPad back to factory defaults should take you to the setup process and let you restore to an iCloud backup : Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings
Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes :
You can go through the iOS Setup Assistant again by erasing all the content on the device. Just tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. This will remove all content from your device, so do this only if you already have a backup. The iOS Setup Assistant is the only way to restore a backup.

"restore from icloud backup" pressed "cannot restore backup" that pops up. I can not restore documents.

i want restore my ipad2 from icloud.
so.. I "reset-reset all settings" is pressed.
but! in the process of restoring "cannot restore backup" is displayed.
help me...

First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
What computer do you have?

How to restore backup files to a new database?

Hello all,
Our database has stopped working because many config files and some control files were deleted or changed! You can see the full discussion here: ORA-01034 - Oracle not availabe
We are using Oracle 11g. We got some comprehensive backup files and some incremental ones before this failure.
Do these backup files contain config and control files too? or just contains data?
And how I can recover the database using them?
Thanks for your help

Thank you so much for your attention.
Yes exactly, I installed oracle on my laptop and copped its control files into the database and they didn't work
1- Many backup files of level 0 and level 1. They've been created using these rman commands:
echo database backup, level 1
echo %DATE%
echo %TIME%
set datetimef=%date:~-4%_%date:~4,2%_%date:~7,2%_%time:~0,2%_%time:~3,2%_%time:~6,2%
echo %datetimef%
rman target / @F:\backup1.txt LOG F:\database-backup\rman-logs\%datetimef%.txt
copy F:\database-backup\rman-logs\%datetimef%.txt F:\database-backup\rman-logs\current-log.txt
and
echo database backup, level 0
echo %DATE%
echo %TIME%
set datetimef=%date:~-4%_%date:~4,2%_%date:~7,2%_%time:~0,2%_%time:~3,2%_%time:~6,2%
echo %datetimef%
rman target / @F:\backup0.txt LOG F:\database-backup\rman-logs\%datetimef%.txt
copy F:\database-backup\rman-logs\%datetimef%.txt F:\database-backup\rman-logs\current-log.txt
What have you done before getting "Oracle not available" message?
One of group members tried to create a new database using Oracle Database Configuration Assistant and then she couldn't work with the new database (I guess she got some errors when she decided to connect to it using sqldeveloper) and then she deleted the new database using Oracle Database Configuration Assistant, and in the last part it asked her Do you want to delete everything related to the new database and she answered yes.
What have you done after getting "Oracle not available" message?
After that we get Oracle Not Available. When I tried to connect to the Oracle via SQLPlus (startup command) it told me that init file does not exist and I recreate that file and put in the right place, then checked some files located in the D:\app\Administrator\admin\iwatchdb\scripts and D:\app\Administrator\product\11.2.0\dbhome_5\NETWORK\ADMIN. Almost in all of that SID and addresses were changed and pointed to the new database, I just alter them and replaced the Yelp (the name of the new database) with iwatchdb (our main database). So the first error solved, and when I tried to start the database up it told me that control files do not exist! and I checked the address that sqlplus showd in the error and it was right! the control files were deleted from: D:\app\Administrator\oradata\iwatchdb (CONTROL01.CTL) and D:\app\Administrator\flash_recovery_area\iwatchdb (CONTROL02.CTL)
- What is the latest error you get in the alert.log file?
do you mean this file? D:\app\Administrator\diag\rdbms\iwatchdb\iwatchdb\alert\log.xml
These are the latest ones:

Backup - how to restore the entire configuration (system cloning)

Hi, is it possible to backup the entire system configuration on order to restore file and system configuration? Time machine is a file backup, if I reset yosemite I've to configure the entire operative system...

OGELTHORPE Is right but you are misunderstanding Time Machine…
In the event of a restore you reinstall OS X & then migrate the Time Machine backup into the new OS. The OS is returned to the same state.
A bootable clone is quicker to get you up & running though. Do both

Machine A - Time Machine Backup - Unable to restore Backup from Machine B

Hello,
My Workstation A has a time machine backup.
My workstation A bit the dust (24in new flatscreen)
I was able to borrow a laptop from a family member and have created another account.
From this user account I am able to ENTER time machine, SELECT the backup on the external hard drive.
My problem is when I try and select the files I need to restore in order to be able to continue my work, that I am getting an error message that says "insufficient access privileges"
How do I access my time machine backups made from my original workstation from a replacement machine ?
Thank you for your feedback.

I have 2 user ids on the laptop. Each userid is an admin account. The suggestion was enough for me to log in as the other user and try to access my backup data. I was able to access my TM backup data from one admin userid, but not from the other.
My goal was to get to my backup data. Once I was able to do this (one admin or another admin, it did not matter)...There is still the problem of why one of the admin's could access the time machine data and the other one could not.
Thanks for your suggestion. It helped me get to the data I needed.

Unable to restore backup, Unable to restore backup

With each restore I get message that it is defective.

I am using a windows server 2008R2 disk to boot up. Both the servers have windows server 2008R2 on them. I have two licenses for each of the servers. I want to use the server at home as a backup server in case the server in office goes down. I used
windows server backup to backup the server at work to a portable USB hard drive. I bought the hard drive home and want to clone the server at work. I heard bare metal restore is the best way to do this. So I booted the server at home with the windows server
2008 r2 disk that I have and clicked repair. I had attached my seagate portable drive to the usb port so that the server could find the image of the server at work, however the server cant find the hard drive or the server image. Is it a problem with my usb
hard drive? Do I need a specific type of usb hard drive to do server image backups?
If I let my server at home boot regularly and it comes up, it can see the image on the hard drive so I dont know how to do the bare metal restore. I know it can be done becuase my IT guy did it when he set up both the servers. I just want to periodically
clone them so make sure the server at home is updated with the settings of the server at work.
Thanks for any help here

How can I backup my MacBook Pro to an external hard drive

How can I backup my MacBook Pro to an external hard drive?

Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
     used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
     requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
     drive being backed up.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Although you can buy a complete external drive system, you can also put one together if you are so inclined. It's relatively easy and only requires a Phillips head screwdriver (typically.) You can purchase hard drives separately. This gives you an opportunity to shop for the best prices on a hard drive of your choice. Reliable brands include Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Toshiba, and Fujitsu. You can find reviews and benchmarks on many drives at Storage Review.
Enclosures for FireWire and USB are readily available. You can find only FireWire enclosures, only USB enclosures, and enclosures that feature multiple ports. I would stress getting enclosures that use the Oxford chipsets especially for Firewire drives (911, 921, 922, for example.) You can find enclosures at places such as;
1. Cool Drives
2. OWC
3. WiebeTech
4. Firewire Direct
5. California Drives
6. NewEgg
All you need do is remove a case cover, mount the hard drive in the enclosure and connect the cables, then re-attach the case cover. Usually the only tool required is a small or medium Phillips screwdriver.
