Performed a restore in itunes and lost photos on iphone 4
Plugged my wife's iphone into computer ...itunes came up and asked if I wanted to restore the iphone. Not knowing this wasn't just making a connection, it restored the iphone to June 2011. She lost all the photos, contacts and messages. Is there any way to recover them???
thanks
Try to repost you issue one of the iTunes forums. With any luck you'll achieve better results

Synced photos from pc to iphone and lost photos in iphone library
Hello to everyone. I need your help cause I recently lost more than 600 photos that I had on my iphone5. I bought iphone5s so I wanted to backup my files and photos. I connected to itunes and, by mistake, I synced photos fromy my pc to iphone and 645 photos I had on the LIBRARY (from previous device iphone 4) syddenly disappeared. I restored backup that I have done before syncing, but my photos were not back at the library. All photos from the Camera Roll were back, but not at the Library. Does anybody know if there is a way to get them back? They are very important photos to me and I would appreciate it very very much if someone could help me.
Thanks in advance.Sorry, but unless those photos are on your computer, or part of your computer backup, they are gone. Photos synced to your phone are not included in any iPhone backup, so restoring from backup will not restore them.

i synced my iphone 5 with my computer and save all the photos to my phone through itunes. i restored my mac and lost all my photos on the mac but i still have them on my phone. how do i get them on my new mac now?
how do i get them on my new mac now?
Be careful, when you connect the iPhone to your mac, unless you have saved the photos. Synced photos may easily be accidentally deleted by syncing again. And do not enable iCloud Photo Library (Beta), that will erase synced photos as well. Synced Photos are not included in the device backups.
Set your iTunes Preferences to "Devices > Prevent iPos, iPhones, iPads from syncing automatically". Otherwise iTunes may launch and sync your iPhone with an empty iPhoto library the moment you connect it.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to sync the synced photos back. Apple recommends to mail them back, but that would be a lot of clicking (iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support). You could also share them to a Shared Album, but a third party app like TD recommended, will be better. -
I upgraded my iphone to OS 6.1.2 through itune and lost some photos from photos album and SMS ( In fact everything went back to how it was on my last back up few weeks ago). Do you know how I can recover them? Thank you.
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

I have had to compleatly restore my computer and lost my Itunes. I now want to transfer my phone music libry to the computer again is this possible without wiping it?
So you have all you music on the iPhone, right? and you want to transfer FROM the iPhone TO the computer?
You can't do that with iTunes as far as i know, but you could probably get by that going through "this computer" or something.. I'm not sure, but technically it should be possible.
good luck! -

my ipod touch 5 generation 16gb wont restore on itunes and sometimes it says that an error has accord (4013)
Check USB connections
If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
Use another USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.
Check for hardware issues
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
Common errors: 1, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020. -
I have a 3G iphone. I just tried to download the new itunes and lost all my itunes I had. I tried to transfer them from my computer but can't. How can I and what do I do to get the ones I bought before and now have lost.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod/iphone/ipad: File>Transfer Purchases -

I restored my pc and now it won't open itunes, when i try to, it reads " this version of itunes has not been correctly localized for this language. please run the english version." how do i fix this so i can open my itunes and back up my iphone?
Hey KEBENNETT,
It sounds like you've restored Windows on your PC and iTunes is no longer opening and running normally.
I'd recommend using the instructions found at step 4 and 5 in this article to repair or remove/reinstall your iTunes installation:

All the best,

Have an iPod touch 4th gen. It is completely charged, but once I disconnect from a power source it shuts down and then the apple logo just keeps reappearing. I have restored via iTunes and reset all the settings. Any suggestions?
If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..
