Photos missing and txt messages when upgraded to ios 5. How to restore?

I just updated to ios 5 and all my 2,000 photos are missing on my phone. I backed up prior to syncing, but now gone. Also, all my text messages are gone.

After u updated to the IOS 5, hit the restore button to restore from your latest backup. Your apps, contacts should be there waiting for u
btw, when u updated to IOS 5, wasnt it "update and restore" ? u just did an update without the restore?
Edit: as long as u did a backup BEFORE u update it, u are fine.

Why display hanging and software problem when upgraded to ios 8

Why display hanging and software problem when upgraded to ios 8

Hi Redhazel,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
To troubleshoot this issue where you're experiencing a poor image quality with your iPhone's camera, please follow the troubleshooting below.
Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
Cheers,
Alex H.

Missing and empty Events after iPhoto 9.4 update - how to restore?

Hi folks, I updated to iPhoto 9.4 a couple of days ago and now many of my photo 'Events' are missing, and some are now appearing as empty.
Can anyone help me get my pictures back (ie restore the library to its pre-9.4 update state) -- when I used Time Machine to try to look at the iPhoto Library from before the update, the icon for the Library was like a plain white drive... do I need to relaunch the iPhoto App from Time Machine to restore everything properly?
As you can see, my Mac knowledge is still pretty thin and so I am loath to fish around too much in case I do some irreparable damage and lose my pictures for good. (my life won't be worth living if I have lost all the newborn pics of my kids... which is why I splashed out on 2 TB Time Machine) ...
Any advice and guidance would be very gratefully received...
Thanks

Thanks Larry - a couple of idiot questions before I take the plunge...
1) my iPhoto library *should* be backed up, right, given my Time Machine is backing up every hour, etc... or do I need to do something else to be doubly safe?
2) When rebuilding my library, which tabs should I click? (Apologies for the uber-caution - I am totally freaked out by this now and paranoid I will lose EVERYTHING) Once I rebuild the library, will photos remain in their Events?
Many thanks

Lost all my photos and txt messages during last update- HELP PLEASE

During the last IPhone update my phone went into restore mode and when it recovered all my photos, videos, and txt messages were gone. I went to restore through old ITunes restore points, but they were gone too- all I have is one from 2011 and the one with nothing on it, and I have synced my phone hundreds of times since 2011. Is there anything I can do? I have a Mac, could I use Time Machine to go back to an old date, and possibly the ITunes restore points will be there? Any help will be much appreciated!!!

Did you fail to backup the device prior to attempting the update? If so, any content between the last backup and when the update apparently failed will be gone.
If the device has been used as designed, contact would be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service. Simply sync them back.
Pictures and videos taken with the device are designed to be copied to a computer regularly. Only a fool would expect a device so easily lost/stolen or damaged to be sole storage of their "important" pictures.

Safari is giving me a missing plug in message when I try to view things like movie trailers. The trailers play on Firefox, so I'm not sure what's missing from Safari.

I just noticed that it won't play some newsite videos anymore either. What plug in do I need to update (if that's the problem)?

Disturbing message when upgrading repository

I'm doing some testing of an upgrade from DI 11.5 to version 12.1 in preparation for our development environment upgrade. When upgrading a repository from version 11.5 to 12.1 I get the follow message at the end of the upgrade log:
Adding 12.0.0 functions... (BODI-300001)

What is the meaning of this message? Does it indicate an error? Should I be concerned?
Logging into the repository with Designer, everything behaves fine and I am able to run a simple job from the repository.

Found this message, and this thread when upgrading 11.7.0.1 repositories to 12.2.1.0. Worryingly the above posts refer to DS 12.1 and service packs that you'd have thought would already be in 12.2.1.0!
I was upgrading about 14 local repositories and 11 central repos and I struggled to find the common error as to why the fabulous "The central repository upgrade was cancelled. (BODI-300022)u201D message appeared. There seemed to be nothing wrong with the repositories and after the upgrade failed DS thought they were 12.2.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, I solved it thus.
*Close the SAPBO Data Services Repository Manager after each upgrade. Reopen for the next upgrade and it works.*
hmmmm.

How do I shut off receiving phone and text messages when I a out of the country but instill want to send and receive emails emails

How do I shut off receiving phone and text messages when I am out of the country. I still want to be able to email and receive email on wifi

Enable Airplane mode followed by turning on wi-fi access.

How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?

How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?
Is this possible? I don't see any options?
All I see is this:
Receive confirmations of many account transactions via Email and/or free Text Alerts delivered right to your cell phone. You can receive these confirmations for
   transactions done online, over the phone or from your handset. Account management Text Alerts do not count against any Messaging allowances.
      Your bill is ready for review.
     Payment Confirmations: Your payment has been received    Your credit/adjustment     has been applied.1
     Account Activity Confirmations     Plan changes     Feature changes1

What phone?
You would need to disable data on the phone itself. You wouldn't do it online on your account.
Note also that text messages do not count toward your data allowance.

I upgraded my iphone to IOS 6.1.2 through itunes and lost some photos from photos album and SMS ( in fact everything went back to how it was on my last back up which was few weeks ago). How can I 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...

In pages it shows and error message when I try to share a document

I get and error message when I try to use Share in sharing a document in pages and cannot email any documents

OK, I tried a few things, and I do not understand the results.
1) I opened the document in Preview, and it would only recognize the three initial pages which I typed using the Pages App. It did not recognize the bulk of the text which I copied from Appleworks 6. It also did not recognize any of the scans.
2) I tried opening a pdf in Preview, and it would only recognize the scans. (No Text!)
3) I tried copying everything (select all, and command-c) in Pages, and then opened a blank Pages doc, and typed Command-v. This got me all of the text, but none of the scans!
4) I was worried that my Pages app might be corrupted, but I successfully converted a similar 78-page document with copied materials from Appleworks 6 and similar scans, ant this worked perfectly.
My conclusion is that my file must be corrupted. Is there any way to check this? shabda88
