Once I restored my iphone 3g after iOs update, all my stored numbers, and apps are missing

I just downloaded the iOs update for my iPhone, and now all my contacts, pics, aapps, and phone and text history is gone.  Can someome help me figure out how to restore my iPhone from Itunes backup, as i backed it up before the download

when you have your phone plugged into itunes on the computer, right-click on the name of your phone on the left-hand side and select 'restore from backup'

  • I just recieved a notification that says "your iphone has been hacked. All your photo's and calls are compremised"..... Should I be worried?

    Hi all,
    I just recieved a notification that says "your iphone has been hacked. All your photo's and calls are compremised"..... Should I be worried or is this a very pathetic attempt of a hacker? Please advise as soon as possible. Below is a screen shot.
    Thank you for your help.

    Is your phone jailbroken? If not, just ignore/delete the message...it's a Flash SMS, & nothing but spam. If your phone is not jailbroken, you have nothing to worry about.

  • HT4859 Can't restore my iPhone 4 after iOS 6 update. help!

    I updated my phone 4 to iOS 6. It froze up on me and I restored it. It did not give me an option to back up from iCloud. I tried to manually do it but it won't allow me to. What gives?

    I've never seen that error. Try these steps: Resolve iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support. If not these, try another computer if you have one.

  • All of my tabs and history are missing after my computer updated and restarted. I had over 140 tabs open! HELP!!!!

    Last night my computer (Win 7 Dell laptop - Firefox) did an update. It restarted and when I turned it back on, the computer gave me a message that said "preparing your desktop" before I could log in. When I logged in, it was almost as if the computer was brand new - the desktop theme was new, it said my mouse was ready to use, and then it said that internet explorer 10 was updated. I clicked on Firefox as usual, expecting it to give me the screen where it asks me if I want it to restore all of my tabs, and it was the Mozilla home page and firefox was barebones in the sense that it didn't have any of my add-ons, or even the basic, file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, tools, help buttons on the screen. When I went into the history, it only had today listed, and no websites!!! I am freaking out and I really need to know how to get everything back to the way it was. I had a Personas add-on with 36 backgrounds that I adored, and I don't want to have to go back and re-download all of my add-ons, not to mention there is no way, I would be able to remember or pick up where I left off with all of those tabs I need for work. Please help me!

    That is a Windows temporary profile, not the fault of Firefox, but something (possibly a windows update, they rolled a bunch out today) corrupted your Windows profile. http://www.sysprobs.com/fix-temporary-profile-windows-7 can help you, this will also bring back your Firefox data.

  • After upgrading to 10.5.2.11 all of my library and playlist are missing...help!

    I upgraded iTunes a few days ago and then opened iTunes to find my music and playlist were missing. I have Vista on a Sony Vaio. The only other thing I can possibly think of that might affect my issue is that I deleted the old short cut icon on my task bar for iTunes. I tried the solution on Apples website to restore my music (which still shows up in my "Music" folder on the c drive by the way) with no luck. It either just didn't work or I did it wrong. This has got to be something simple, but I'm at a loss???

    Updating to iTunes 7.7 and OSX 10.5.4 has fixed the problem. Why I don't know.

  • I synched my iPhone yesterday and then updated it. Now all of my music and apps are gone.

    How can I get them back?

    Thanks. I think I'm going to try and revert my old 3GS to factory settings, put my last back up on it and manually enter all my phone numbers. I'm too worried about messing everything up! I'm typically good with technological issues but my iPhone scares the crap out of me since it is so essential to everything haha

  • Have iphone 4, after new update all my apps were deleted and photos

    i have the iphone 4, when downloading music to my phone the software updated to iOS 5.0.1.  It deleated all of my apps and my photos, etc. Any idea where to find all of my "stuff'. 

    You can also restore from iTunes or iCloud backup if you have one.

  • HT4910 i have a problem with my contacts on iphone 4s after i update ios7 .sometimes contacts disappear and when i add new contact become not saved .what can i do?

    yes

    You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
    and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

  • After updating to iPhoto 6, thumbs and photos are missing

    I just updated from iphoto 5 to 6, installed off the iLife cd. iPhoto is displaying a grey screen with dashed boxes (that show the jpg names of the photos). When clicked, the enlarged photos show an exclamation mark"!"
    I have trashed the program and reinstalled it and gotten the same result.
    I have also relaunched with the option/apple keys and run OnyX to repair permissions and then restarted.
    I did not mess around with my iPhoto library. All the photos exist in their original folders. I could reinstall them BUT I have some very nicely done photo books and albums I'd like to keep and many of my photos have been retouched. I have around 5000 photos I'm dealing with.
    OF COURSE I did not Back up ILife before I upgraded. $%^&
    Manually Imported photos from another folder are showing up fine. - Which makes me think that there is some database that thinks that all the other pictures are of a grey box ... is there a database that can be thrown out?

    Well, I purchased and installed iPhoto Library Manager.
    Unless I am missing some magic button, It doesn't seem to be the answer. All it does is move the selected phantom file references and then tells me that 0 files were moved.
    I guess I get to manually add my old photos into the new "improved" iphoto 6 and forget about saving 2 years worth of albums and photo books.
    II don't know if this matters, I was running my old billing program in system 9, which I shut down while updating the photo list.
    Let this be a lesson, one I've learned too many times going back to 1985 MacII-1 simRam. BACK UP. Things have been running too smooth for too long. I got too comfortable. Its my own fault.

  • I upgrade to Iphone software version 7.0.4.All of my photos and contacts are now missing.

    I upgraded my iphone to the software version 7.0.4
    since the upgrade all of my photos and contacts are missing.
    Any suggestions on how to retrieve?

    So, I guess my iPhone upgraded without me being aware. But nevertheless I am now running iOS 7.0.4.
    I've noticed the last few days that I'm encountering sporadic contact  disappearance. I'll get a text, the notification shows their name, maybe a few minutes later i'll go to read the full message and now no name, just a number. I'll look and ALL my contacts are gone. the conversation screen has nothing but numbers and the favorites under phone are just numbers. Search can still work by name though so the phone "knows" that joe is 555-5555, but is not showing the connection.
    TEMPORARY WORKING FIX:
    Turning off contacts in my icloud settings and choosing to delete the contacts on my phone, then re-enabling contacts will pull them all back down for me. This of course takes about 5-10 minutes for everything to sync back to the phone.
    I've tried restarting the phone.
    I've tried resetting the phone.
    I don't feel like wasting my time with a backup unless I can downgrade to something before 7.0.4 as it is obvioiusly buggy.
    I am NOT going to set up as a new phone until this becomes a much bigger problem.
    I hope this offers insight to others encountering this bug. My mother has had this happen on her phone as well. Please comment at least if you experience this. the more people that have it, the less chance apple can play it off as an isolated event on my phone.

    Well, if you did it yourself, then there is a chance that you damaged some other component inside the device that is causing your issue. The iPhone's are not user serviceable, and once you have opened the device you have voided any warranty and post-warranty support from Apple. I would try Google to see if you can find any other way to repair your device, as Apple will no longer look at it.

  • Trying to restore iPhone 4 after iOS 7 update

    I've updated my software to ios 7, and the iphone turned on and asked me to set up the language, wifi, etc.  It asked if I want to restore the iphone using iturnes or icloud.  I chose iTunes, and it asked to connect the phone to the computer to get connected to iTunes.  Did that, and iTunes goes through 6 steps of "syncing" to my phone.  It completes and everything, and the phone goes back to the "how would you like to restore your iPhone" page.  How can I get all my previous settings back?  I don't want to lose my contacts and texts!
