Pictures deleted after doing upgrade on 3G Iphone

I did an upgrade on my 3G iphone on Friday. After doing the updrade I realized my pictures, my calendar events and my contacts, etc were erased. Cannot find a backup on itunes. Is there anyway to retrieve my deleted pictures?

Photos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. The Camera Roll is for temporary storage only. When there are photos in the Camera Roll, your iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer.
Photos in the Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup but if there is no backup and you didn't import the photos with your computer especially before installing a firmware update, the photos are gone.
Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer. Not a good idea to depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for contacts which can be lost or stolen. The same for calendar events.
Contacts and calendar events are included with your iPhone's backup as well but if there is no backup and you weren't syncing contacts and calendar events with a supported app on your computer, this data is gone as well.

IPhoto app was deleted after doing an update

My iphoto app was deleted after doing an update. Lost over 1,000 pictures and videos. My mac originally came with iphoto so I did not have to purchase that app but now in the app store it is saying I have to pay $15 for the app! Don't know what happened!

You did check in the Applications folder, right? Go the the App Store and look in the Updates section to see if the 9.5.1 is listed there for just an update and not purchase.

Anyconnect Client profile files deleted after client upgrade

L.S.
I am running anyconnect version 3.1.02040 on a Windows 7 64-bit machine with UAC turned on.
The ASA I am connecting to is a 5510 running ASA OS 8.4.5
The problem I have is the following:
We are using machine certificate authentication combined with RADIUS user authentication.
The machine certificates are stored in the Machine/Personal container in the local machine.
By default, the anyconnect client does not have the rights to access this certificate store when run by the user in non-elevated mode.
We do not want to have the user run the client as administrator (in elevated mode) all the time.
Therefor we have made an Anyconnect Client profile that sets the Certificate Store Override parameter to true and attached it to the group policy.
With this XML in place (in the C:\ProgramData\Cisco\Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client\Profile folder)
the users can connect to the ASA and authenticate using the certificate without the need for elevated rights. This is all working perfectly.
The anyconnect client and XML file are distributed to the clients using a software distribution system (Microsoft SCCM).
The problem happens when I update the Anyconnect package on the ASA. I recently updated the package to release 3.1.03103. This is what happens:
The user can connect using the 3.1.02040 client (certicate authentication works without elevation, since the XML Anyconnect Client Profile is present)
The Anyconnect software updates itself to the new version during the connection, pushed from the ASA.
The VPN is established.
However, the XML file that is associated with the group policy is deleted during the upgrade process and not placed back in the Profile folder on the client after the upgrade.
This means the user cannot connect without using elevated rights the next time he wants to connect.
If he uses elevated rights after the upgrade, the XML is pushed back from the ASA normally, allowing the user to connect without elevation again any subsequent times.
Is there any way to push the XML profile to the client from the ASA after the upgrade of the Anyconnect software?

Hi poiu720408 ,
1. You need to set up a web-url or group-alias under the group policy as web have enable the "tunnel-group-list enable" under the webvpn configuration. So once the user connect to the proper URL/alias the profile will be applied.
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/security/asa-5500-x-series-next-generation-firewalls/98580-enable-group-dropdown.html
2. Yes the Anycopnnect store a "Cache " information on the PC , if you want to clan up you have to go to the anyconnect folder on C: on the PC and delete the global_preferences.xml profile.
3. This behavior is totally expected and they should disappear after a some minutes , however if you wan to force this , you can use the command "vpn-sessionsdb logoff webvpn noconfirm"
Please rate helpful post !
Hope this helps

Does upgrading from previous iPhone affect iPhone 6 Plus battery

I started with an iPhone 3G when it launched, then upgraded to an iPhone 4S shortly after it launched. Fast forward to present time, I recently upgraded to an iPhone 6 plus and am wondering does the legacy of data from the previous phones affect the newer phone's performance. The Usage/standby statistics are useless. They are always identicle no matter how long I lay the phone down. For example its telling me I've been using it for 4 hours and 8 minutes, and the Standby is also 4 hours and 8 minutes. If you total that up, its more time than I've even been awake for today so far. Secondly I haven't even used the device for 4 hours cumulatively let alone 1 hour. Restarting the phone, or restoring from back up doesn't seem to help.
When I use the phone first thing in the morning and unplug it I've seen a 10% drop at times when simply going on Instagram or flipboard for a 5 to 10 minutes.
Since getting the phone I have seen mild improvement in battery life over my 4S, but am not seeing the stellar battery life performance and this Phone is supposedly NEW, from the Apple Store I walked in and bought it from. Any thoughts, or suggestions? Is it the hardware? Does the battery need to be tested?
PS: At the end of me writing this post, Usage 4 hours, 27 minutes... Standby 4 Hours, 27 minutes. SMH

So for a day it seemed to work fine, but in the morning I picked up my 6 Plus unplugged it and noticed as time went by the problem of identical Usage and Standby was present. This time I only reset Network Settings the Usage and Standby were working properly again. Still trying to figure out what the culprit is. How common is this problem and is Apple aware of it and will truly do something about it?
It's not common, but it has happened occasionally for 7 1/2 years with every model iPhone and every version of iOS. It is an app problem, where an app misbehaves or gets stuck sending or attempting to send and failing. There are various tricks to "unstick" it, and resetting network settings sometimes works as it kills all data requests.

Webcam pictures delete after 28 days from my pic folder

I take a lot of pictures with my built in webcam..
When i take them it comes up with the snapshot and i close it and they save to my pictures folder but they delete the pictures automaticaly after 28 days.
How do i change this?
Do i need to move the pictures to another folder? Rename them? I'm stuck.
It deleted all 50 pictures of me and my boyfriend so kinda gutted and want to get this solved ASAP
Any help much appreciated :)

Hi LizziiJayne
Thats really strange.
I never had such issue and I cannot imagine that the picture would delete automatically after a couple of time without any warnings or notification.
Do you use any 3rd party software or tools which would clean the OS?
Anyway, you could try to move the picture to the second partition on the HDD.
Create a folder on the second partition and move the pictures there.
Additionally I would recommend backup the pictures on a external USB stick or HDD.
Then test it if the pictures would be deleted again.

Can I use my original iPhone as an iPod after I upgrade to an iPhone 4?

I am upgrading my 1st gen iphone finally. Can it be used to listen to music and watch movies after I get my new iphone 4? It still works fine, just has a short battery life. I was hoping my daughter could use it as an "ipod" without the wifi.

Yes.

This is what is backed up
iTunes will back up the following information
Contacts* and Contact Favorites (regularly sync contacts to a computer or cloud service such as iCloud to back them up).
App Store Application data including in-app purchases (except the Application itself, its tmp and Caches folder).
Application settings, preferences, and data, including documents.
Autofill for webpages.
CalDAV and subscribed calendar accounts.
Calendar accounts.
Calendar events.
Call history.
Camera Roll (Photos, screenshots, images saved, and videos taken. Videos greater than 2 GB are backed up with iOS 4.0 and later.)
Note: For devices without a camera, Camera Roll is called Saved Photos.
Game Center account.
Home screen arrangement.
In-app purchases.
Keychain (this includes email account passwords, Wi-Fi passwords, and passwords you enter into websites and some other applications. If you encrypt the backup with iOS 4 and later, you can transfer the keychain information to the new device. With an unencrypted backup, you can restore the keychain only to the same iOS device. If you are restoring to a new device with an unencrypted backup, you will need to enter these passwords again.)
List of External Sync Sources (MobileMe, Exchange ActiveSync).
Location service preferences for apps and websites you have allowed to use your location.
Mail accounts (mail messages are not backed up).
Installed Profiles. When restoring a backup to a different device, installed configuration profiles are not restored (such as accounts, restrictions, or anything which can be specified through an installed profile.) Any accounts or settings that are not associated with an installed profile will still be restored.
Map bookmarks, recent searches, and the current location displayed in Maps.
Microsoft Exchange account configurations.
Network settings (saved Wi-Fi hotspots, VPN settings, network preferences).
Nike + iPod saved workouts and settings.
Notes.
Offline web application cache/database.
Paired Bluetooth devices (which can only be used if restored to the same phone that did the backup).
Safari bookmarks, cookies, history, offline data, and currently open pages.
Saved suggestion corrections (these are saved automatically as you reject suggested corrections).
Messages (iMessage and carrier SMS or MMS pictures and videos).
Trusted hosts that have certificates that cannot be verified.
Voice memos.
Voicemail token. (This is not the voicemail password, but is used for validation when connecting. This is only restored to a phone with the same phone number on the SIM card).
Wallpapers.
Web clips.
YouTube bookmarks and history.
* Your contacts are part of the backup to preserve recent calls and favorites lists. Back up your contacts to a supported personal information manager (PIM), iCloud, or another cloud-based service to avoid any potential contact data loss.
You will see that contacts are backed up

Pictures gone after gallery upgrade

All of my pictures have disapeared from my phone after the recent Gallery upgrade. Not only that but my phone will now not store any photos taken. I have tried settng the storage to the SD card but that didn't fix it. Fortunately I have Drop Box and all of my pictures had been automatically uploaded to a drop box folder but it is a problem to not be able to take any photos. (this from someone who once said I just want a phone and don't need all the fancy stuff )

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Unable to sync apps that were deleted after iTouch upgraded with new S/W

After the iTouch software was spontaneously "upgraded", apps disappeared from the iTouch. Resetting the device did not help at all. The current state is that all apps show up in the Apps tab for the device, but everything appears to be greyed out. No boxes can be checked or unchecked, and so on.
The "report a problem" feature on the purchase history page is now bogus. All it does is open an unhelpful self-help page in the web browser: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/#app_store

Dfu means device firmware upgrade
Press and hold Power + Home buttons together (10sec)
Phone will go blank
Before Apple logo comes, release the Power n keep holding Home button
Until you see a pop in the PC that Apple device in recovery mode
At that point iTunes will pop asking to restore iphone
Click restore or
before u click restore just download the iOS 6.0.2 on say desktop
After that press and hold shift on ur keyboard then click restore
It will allow u to navigate and select the iOS firmware u just downloaded
That's it. When done, restore from your iphone backup, and syncing starts working

Problems with contacts getting deleted after software upgrade!

Somehow, my IPhone 4s had a software upgrade, and it DELETED contacts. Anyone else have a problem with this???? UGH!
I had a thunderbolt before my IPhone, and my contacts were saved to the verizon back up assistant. They are now nowhere to be found!

If you were already using iOS 5 where you using the iCloud feature to back up your device? If so, you should be able to retrieve your contacts. If you just upgraded to iOS 5 where you backing up your device on your computer via iTunes? You were advised to complete a backup prior to proceeding with the software update...if you did so then a copy of your back up should be available in iTunes. Try looking at the following link to see if it helps:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
If you did not do a backup and you were not using iCloud to do backups then you would need re-sync your contacts from another source...did you use a contact manager on your computer (such as Outlook)? If you did then you can retrieve your contacts from there. Try looking at this link to see if it helps. If it is not the correct one you can do a search on that site to find the article that better fits your needs.

Data deleted after software upgrade

Help! I connected my iphone 3 into itunes and accepted the software upgrade on offer. I now have lost ALL data incuding precious photos. Don't care about message threads or settings, but I do care about photos. I have imported my contacts back in from my SIM card but am at a loss as to how this happened when I just selected the standard prompts to update software. I am using another PC as my regular PC is not working, so cannot get photos off that from my last syncing. Thanks

Well, some info:
Apple assumes that all photos in the Photo Library you also have on your computer and thus it's no problem if the sync/update process deletes them, because you can re-sync them from your computer just like you did in the first place. This is true of all photos, video, music, which Apple calls "media". The iPhone is NOT a backup.
Syncing with a new computer offers a warning that it is going to delete all media from the phone and replace it with media from the new computer, at which point you should have canceled. You are only allowed to sync media from one computer at a time.
Syncing with a new computer should have backed up your phone first, and that would include the photos in the Camera Roll, that you took with the phone; but NOT the photos in the Photo Library, that you synced to the phone. The backup should also include data saved within apps. So you might be able to Restore from Backup to get some stuff back, or use a third-party utility to pull your Camera Roll photos from the backup file on the computer. Assuming iTunes backed up first.
Failing that, I don't think I've heard of any way to undo loss of media due to syncing with a new computer. You might ask google.

All pictures deleted after software update?

I NEED HELP
after having done a regular software update, my macbook didn't start up anymore.
so I had to reinstall everything.
the programm iphoto and the pictures that were in it were gone atferwards.
so does anyone know if I my photos do still exist? where can I find them? What can I do to get them back? shouldn't they still be somewhere on the laptop?
CAN U HELP ME?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
When you ”re-installed everything“ did you wipe the disk first? What re-install option did you use exactly?

P.s. Block capitals are hard to read and on the forum they look like you're shouting.

Passcode now required after V3 upgrade of 3G iPhone

After upgrading to V3 the iPhone now requires me to enter a Passcode. There is no option to turn this off like in V2. Can anyone suggest why this may be the case?

I see option to turn it off. Where are you looking?
Also are you using a phone hooked to a corp Exchange account? If so, they have some control over forcing policies.
