Hi shelly92555,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on your current situation. If you are saying that you are unable to unlock the original iPhone due to a passcode issue, you may find the following article helpful:
Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support

  • I accidentally deleted one of my iMessage contacts, but they are still on my iPod contacts. I really need to get it back, and i don't have iCloud but i did back up my iPod to iTunes after it happened. Is there any way i can get the past messages back?

    I wasn't looking at what I was doing and I deleted an imessage conversation and I havent figured out how to get it back yet. I have my ipod backed up with itunes but not icloud. It is onlt that one conversation though and I really want to get it back. Is there any way possible to get my conversation back on my ipod?

    If it was there and you creaded an iPod backup via iTunes then restore from that backup. Otherwise y are out of luck.
    Autosyncing
    To help prevent the last backup from being overwritten and thus erasing the Messages from the last backup turn off autosyncing so that you have to overtly start a sync. To turn off go iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says "Prevent iPods...".

    Can you try to use another computer?
    If this does not work, visit an Apple Store or an Authorized Apple Service Provider next to your place, and show them the phone, maybe they can restore it before you'll have to get it serviced.
    Did you try to put it in recovery mode?

  • I synched my iphone to 2 laptops and have now lost all the music purchased by my wife in our itunes library, how do i get this back and restore it to both our iphones?

    I have recently upgraded my iphone 4 software and thought I'd backed up all my stuff. When I restored the settings only 73 out of 895 songs were downloaded to my Itunes library. I then went on my other laptop with all the old stuff on and tried to synch them. This led to all the music in this itunes library being wiped except for the 73 on my phone.
    HOW DO I GET MY MUSIC BACK!!!
    I share my music with my wife and we both purchase using different id's but have not had problems before in downloading to our phones. She is now a little peeved with me and any help would be very gratefully received and make my life alot easier

    Hello johnohuk,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like most of your music was purchased from the iTunes Store. If your country supports iTunes in the Cloud, you can download your past purchases using this article:

  • I need to get rid of billing info and I really need to get apps but I need some billing info in order to get apps but I don't have a credit card

    I need help with a billing  adress  and I don't. Have a credit card and I need to get rid of it

    Are you creating a new account?
    Why not purchase and redeem an iTunes gift card?

  • My computer is "dying" and I will need to get another.  Question: How do I transfer the iTunes account/music, etc that is on the dying computer?

    How can you transfer the current iTunes account from a "dying" computer to a new one.  Mine is slowly dying and I need to get another computer, but do not want to loose the content of our iTunes account.  Thanks

    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.

  • Lost all my tabs when my computer died and now I can't get tham back

    I forgot to plug in my computer while I was browsing Firefox and it died. I was not worried as this has happened before, but when I reopened Firefox and tried to restore my 53 tabs (I know I have a problem, I love tabs) I was unable to click restore previous tabs in History. I don't know what to do because these tabs were collected over a period of months. I tried to rename the systemstore.bak file to systemstore.js like many of the forums suggested, but it gives me a warning telling me that changing the file may make the info unusable and when I try to reopen Firefox there is nothing there. Once, in the past I found a forum that involved pasting a link into the browser and being able to do a system restore in some way to find your old tabs, but I can't find this old post. I just don't know what else to do now.

    You can try to restore a previous version of the sessionstore.js file.
    *Right-click: Properties > Previous Versions
    *http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Previous-versions-of-files-frequently-asked-questions
    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

  • I have lost ALL my phone numbers. I have 4s with 7.0.   Can I get them back?

    I don't want iCloud, never did. Yet it is aggressively asking for me to sign in. Sometimes I cannot cancel and held hostage. I have lost ALL my phone numbers by fooling with this unnecessary Apple push. I wanted to see if I had anything I. Cloud and could see a thing.  Can I get the numbers back?  I have 4s with 7.0. update.  I blame Apple for pushing the icloud.

    iTunes backs up your phone everytime you sync, if you have set it up to do so.
    See the link below for how to restore from the most recent backup:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    If that backup contains the contacts you lost, they will be restored. Otherwise they are gone.

  • Lost all my thumbnails - new tabs open only a blank page. How do I get them back?

    The support topic on this question says to look for a "pin" icon in the upper left corner of the browser. I do not show one. Firefox used to just automatically populate my new tabs page with the thumbnails, but it is no longer doing that, and I don't know how to fix it.
    I downloaded some freeware that changed a number of browsing options (default browser, added Bing bar without my full knowledge, etc.). Got that all removed but then Firefox wasn't working well, so I had to uninstall/reinstall the program. Now my thumbnails are gone and I can neither get them back nor create new ones.
    Help!
    Cheers, Dolly

    MOST EXCELLENT. Not only did this work, but I was able to do it all very easily AND it brought back all my previously set up thumbnails in the order I had them arranged on the new tab pages! Wonderful.
    I will definitely keep these instructions for future reference, but I had already gone in and deleted all apps and extensions that I did not recognize as from Firefox or that I hadn't added myself. So I'm pretty sure I got rid of the pesky malware that caused the problem already. Great links for that task however.
    Thank you SO much!!
    Cheers, Dolly

  • I lost all my purchased music that i bought on my ipod touch, how do i get them back?

    i lost all my music that i purchased from my ipod touch, how do i get them back?

    You should have transferred them to your computer regularly and included them in your backup copy of your computer.
    You buy one and only one download.  It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
    If for some reason you have failed to backup your music, then you can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

  • HT201269 I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone, how do i get them back.  when I sync my phone, itunes says that they have been selected, but they don't show up on my phone

    I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone.  the iTunes sync page says that they have all been selected but they don't show up in my phone? Help?

    I had the same problem and was able to fix it. Go to your iTunes and click on the Tones folder on the left under library. Some of my ring tones had an exclamation mark next to it and those were the ones that did not sync. You have to click on those and find it in your computer. Once the exclamation mark is gone, go to Tones section of your device in iTunes, make sure you select the tones you want synced, and click apply. I hope that helps you!
