No Camera App after restore from backup on iphone 4

OK so I backedup my iphone 3g which was on 312 on itunes 9.2 before my iphone 4 arrived today. I restored from backup and all of my apps restored. I can't seem to find the camera app! It's driving me crazy that I am trying restore the iphone 4 as a new phone but downloading the iOS4 firmware for iphone 4 is taking more than 3 hours for some reason.
Has anyone seen this?

Why not? If old data is recovered by restoring, then new data after last back up lose. If keep new data after last back up remain, lost old data can't be regained, even may be user's lack of knowledge, iPhone should not be for the people of one class...I am really sad for all who suffer the lost of their hearts (valuable data that can never be recalled) like me. How can I continue to use idevices?????

    It just means some spammer is using your email address as the sender address for their spam. This is very easy to do - anyone can do it simply by changing the From email address in their email program. It does not mean your account was hacked or you have a virus (there are no current Mac viruses on the loose anyway, nor has there been for years).
    There's nothing you can do about it. It can happen to anyone and the spammers will move on to using someone else's email address before long.

  • After restoring from backup on iCloud, my photos have been "downloading" for 2 days with no progress at all.

    After restoring from backup on iCloud, my photos have been "downloading" for 2 days with no progress at all.  Everything else seems to by fine, however. I have all my apps, contacts, even my photostream back, but my camera roll has said "downloading 137 of 1,345" for two days.  I really don't want to have to start over as the whole process took almost 3 hours. Help?

    Someone mentioned that syncing with ITunes, making sure that photos are being synced - even with an empty folder, fixed the problem.  I tried it and it didn't work for me.  Anyone got any answers that don't include losing the photos or erasing and restoring from backup again?

  • How can I see my messages after restoring from backup?

    I have 2.1gb of messages saved in my storage on my 4s but they're not in messages after restoring from backup.
    How can I get all my messages back in my message app because I know they're their it's just a matter of getting them restored into the app.

    When you restored your phone from an old backup, it wiped ALL data from your phone and replaced it with the data from that backup.  It's like your phone went back in time. 
    Your data that was on the phone before you did the restore is now gone forever.  There is no way to get these data back.

  • After restore from backup, iphone is not getting start, only apple logo is there on screen

    after restore from backup, iphone is not getting start, only apple logo is there on screen

    Hi there.
    Try some basic trouble shooting steps first, before looking into some advanced issues that might be causing this. The first thing I would try, is holding down the power button and home button at the same time until the screen turns off on you. See what steps you can take from there, if any.
    Kind Regards.

  • Trying to restore from backup of IPhone 4 onto New IPhone 5 - Message "ITunes could not restore the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored".

    Hi
    I'm trying to restore from backup of IPhone 4 onto New IPhone 5 in iTunes but getting message:
    "ITunes could not restore the iPhone "iPhone" because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored".
    I've repeated the backup of my old phone but I'm still getting the same message.
    Any ideas please?
    Ger

    I just spent 3 hrs with AT&T tech support. No visual voicmail! i wiped phone 3 times, reset. everything no visual voicemail.
    I can access it through dialing holding down 1 then enter password, bu t Visual voicemail is DEAD. ATT says apple has major bug and fix won't be out until OCT 5th.
    If you Google it it lights up like a cristmas tree! Verizon is also inodated.
    1. Fake Map app usless Apple is fixing it though
    2. Batt is a joke, last like 2 hrs
    3. No visual voicemail
    4. Face time on ATT no longer works on cellular data per apple design.
    We need Steve Jobs!! he would have fired somebody for all these mistakes.
    Nopw i am locked into crashing my car because i have to type in numbers to here voicemails.
    Come on Apple send us a rebate or a Iphone 5 that meets the specs stated on the box and advertisments.!!
    We love Apple and dedicated, but this one is a joke.
    Not to mention you jacked us all being locked into 2 year plans with Verizon or ATT.
    No face time unless i buy a Bucket of 5 gb over celluar?  give me a break Take care of us apple Buy ATT and igve us unlimited plans with facetime and data you got enough money!

  • Having a hard time rebooting iPhone 5 after restore from backup!

    Here is my problem, my new iphone 5 did a restore from backup from my 4S.  It took awhile because I have a lot of apps.  Unfortunately not all the folders were intact.  I heard that you have to do a double restore from backup.  Once I did my 2nd restore from backup, the phone goes through a reboot process.  I get the apple logo and then a blank screen.  I have tried holding the home and top button with and without it being plugged in.  I got it working and did a restore from backup again, thinking the folders would be restored.  It did not work again.  After trying about 5 or 6 times, I finally got the phone to come up again.  Unfortunately I still have not gotten my folders back they way it was.  It's partial and now I don't want to try to do another restore from backup.  So I guess itunes is still  not fixed in terms of restoring apps and folders they way it is supposed to be.  Anyone else have this issue?

    Sorry to say my friend, but any second you going to lose from that moment on is a lost second. I d like to wish you luck and after all said and done - get back here and tell me if I was wrong. BTW if those were text group messages, your phone was never a problem.

  • After restoring from backup, iPad hangs after sliding to unlock-I have to reset every time to get it to work--Any fix?

    I have a first generation iPad.
    After having crashing issues I restored from backup.
    Since restore, whenever I slide to unlock, it hangs for few minutes.  Then I get a pictrue of the spinning circle but is doesn't spin---just hangs there--frozen.
    I have to reset the iPad to get it to function every time (holding down the home button/on-off button).
    Any ideas on how I can resolve this issue?

    Seems to have something to do with the passcode.  I turned the passcode off and now there are no issues.

  • Bug in iphone 4s - Red icon shows after restore from backup

    Hi All,
    I think i have found a bug with the iphone 4s.
    If i restore to new with the latest software 5.0.1 the little red icon does not show on the settings tab but then if i do a restore from backup it shows.
    This is annoying and is clearly a bug as the phone is upto date.
    Anyone else having this issue?
    I think it might be because i installed the update from 5.0 to 5.0.1 via the phone and not the pc.
    Cheers

    If you have back up your notes, you can restore from the backup.
    To restore information from a backup, use one of the following methods after connecting your iOS device to the computer with which you normally sync:
    1. Right-click (or Control-click) the device and choose Restore from Backup
    2. If you have a new phone, you can connect to iTunes and it will prompt to restore from your backup
    Solution from Apple.com: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    If you have no backup for your data on iPhone, iPhone data recovery software is your last shot! I used iTunes Data Recovery and it worked well. It's easy to use. Just a few clicks you can get all your photos back. Here is a step by step guide for you: http://x.co/3Q8U3

  • How do I restore from backup on iPhone 4S?

    I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 5 on Wednesday and last synced it with my Mac on Thursday night at 11:30pm before going to bed.  I bought the iPhone 4S on Friday morning and started it as a new iPhone.  I think that I did something wrong, because I never saw the option to "Restore From Backup" so that I could port over my last iPhone 4 with iOS 5 back up.  Can someone tell me if/how I can do this?  Maybe I need to restore my 4S and start over. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Thanks Bryan.  Sorry to sound like such an idiot.  The first time I tried that, but backup options didn't auto populate.  I restored the 4S and followed your advice above.  Worked like a charm.

  • HT3603 camera roll is empty from my pic after restore from backup!!! plz help

    Hi, I have restored my iPhone to factory defaults and after that i choose the option to restore via iCloud since i already Made backup for all my applications and pictures ...but unfortunately
    - All my applications, SMSs, contacts, etc. were restored successfully
    BUT My camera roll (pictures & videos) was not restored at all since when im looking to the camera roll nothing inside it
    i wait too much this problem since 2 days until now nothing important
    It remains empty. It only downloaded the last 15 pictures from my Photostream.
    I'm sure my restored iCloud backup should still contain these pictures as it states that the backup size is 3.7 GB.
    My camera roll was about 2,2 GB so that makes sense since now when i go to the details of the icloud backup
    it still appears this information but where is my pictrures i have done restore and backup 3 times but nothing appear
    in the camera roll!!! so please help me in the problem specially i still not make any changing in the icloud backup

But now, I have no pictures.on my camera roll, no data in any of my apps, just the music is the same. Im so incredibly ****** off. i don't think there is a way to fix this :'''''(

  • Why cant I download apps after restoring from a backup? How to fix?

    After I restored my ipod from a backup a month ago, my ipod wont let me download apps. It says "Unable to download app at this time". The thing is I can download when connected to my computer, and when new apps are downloaded on my other devices, they auto-download onto my ipod (Like they did before the restore from the backup) How can I download apps again without connectig to my computer or downloading them on other devices?

    Have you tried when connect to another network?
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

  • IPhone 6 iOS 8.1 - Photos blank / preview corrupt after restore from backup

    Hello,
    I just restored from a recent backup of an iPhone 5s @iOS 8.1 (from today) to a new iPhone 6, also on iOS 8.1.
    Everything else is ok, except the photo library. Only those images that have been edited within in iPhone 5s stock photos app over the last few months do not show up in the iPhone 6 library. The total number of images, videos etc shows up as exactly the same on both devices.
    In thumbnail view, they're just white boxes. When I click on the white thumbnail, I can see the intended image for less than a second before it turns into a blank white image again. Interestingly, if I try and revert the image to its original version (as clicked by the iPhone 5s, before it was edited in-app), the image becomes viewable again.
    I could do this if it were just a few images, but there are far too many of these scattered around in my photo library for this approach to be convenient.
    I have tried restoring from the same back up again, no luck. I even deleted the backup from iTunes, made a fresh back up of the iPhone 5s and tried restoring to the iPhone 6 - no luck.
    Is there anyway to force rebuild the photo library? Will that help?
    Or should I delete all data and settings from the iPhone 6 and start over again ?
    Any clues?

    OK I was able to fix the issue.
    Just in case this helps anyone:
    I used iExplorer and navigated to the "PhotoData" folder. I backed up and then deleted the following data files form this folder:
    1) com.apple.photos.caches_metadata.plist
    2) PhotosAux.sqlite
    3) Photos.sqlite
    Then I quit the Photos App, hard reset the iPhone and reopened the Photos App. It took a while to rebuild the photo library, but everything seems to be back to normal now.

  • No Service after restoring from backup

    So I have an iPhone 3gs. It was Jailbroken on 5.1.1 with upgraded iPad baseband 6.15.0 or something of that sort to allow sim unlocking. I decided to downgrade the baseband and upgrade to iOS 6 and unlock through official channels. Everything works fine however, when I restore from back up the iPhone loses network connection and I get NO SERVICE in the top left corner of the screen. I reset network setting etc. and it didnt fix the problem, still no service. So I did a full restore. At the activation screen I had signal and network connection. I set the iphone up as a new iphone and still there was no problem. I still had signal and a network connection. I then decided to restore from back up to place all my stuff back on the phone and once finished I was again presented with No Service. I havent tried this process again as of yet to test my theory that the backup is causing this issue but I'm confident this is the issue. Can anyone give me a reason as to why this would happen?

    Hi emeca,
    I'm sorry, I'm a bit unclear on your exact configuration. Depending on how you have your iPhone configured and how you backed it up, Contacts may or may not be backed up. For example, with iCloud backups:
    What iCloud backs up
    You have important information on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. iCloud automatically backs up your device over Wi-Fi every day while it’s turned on, locked, and connected to a power source. With your device information backed up in iCloud, you can easily set up a new device or restore information on one you already have.
    Here’s what iCloud backs up:
    Purchase history for music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Your iCloud backup includes information about the content you have purchased, but not the purchased content itself. When you restore from an iCloud backup, your purchased content is automatically downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store. Some types of content aren’t downloaded automatically in all countries, and previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the store. For more information, see the Apple Support article iTunes in the Cloud availability by country. Some types of content aren’t available in all countries. For more information, see the Apple Support article What can I buy from the iTunes Store in my country?.
    Photos and videos on your iOS devices
    Device settings
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    iMessage, text (SMS), and MMS messages
    Ringtones
    Visual Voicemail
    Your iOS device backup only includes data and settings stored on your device.
    It doesn’t include data already stored in iCloud, for example contacts, calendars, bookmarks, mail messages, notes, shared photo albums, iCloud Photo Library beta, My Photo Stream, and documents you save in iCloud using iOS apps and Mac apps.

  • License deactivated after restored from backup

    I restored 3 servers from backup after my storage crashed.
    after restoring them, i noticed that the productID is shows not activated.
    i am running my servers off vmware vsphere 5.5.
    backup software is storagecraft virtual server edition.
    my servers is windows 2008 r2 standard version. 

    this machine appears to be configured as KMSHost (VOLUME_KMS_R2_B channel)
    The restore event seems to have triggered "Hardware out of tolerance", so you must re-activate this machine with MSFT.
    You can use online/web activation, or if no internet access from this machine to MSFT web, you can use telephone activation for it.

    Did you restore to a new VM ? (if so, this would explain it)
