Please help:( could photos be retrieved if phone went into recovery mode

My iphone was in recovery mode since yesterday. Is there any way that I could retrieve the photos from the phone? I have about 6000+ photos which I have not backed up. Please help.. the photos were important to me:( I wish I have backup up the photos regularly. I have not thought of the phone would suddenly enter into a recovery mode. I read a few posts on the community saying that once the phone is in recovery mode, there is nothing you can do.:(

  • After updating my Iphone 4s to os 7.1.1 ota, my phone went into recovery mode. Yet when I try to restore it with Itunes on my windows 7 laptop it says the network connection has been reset! My phone has the itunes logo and charger symbol on it .

    After updating my Iphone 4s to os 7.1.1 from 7.1 over the air, my phone went into recovery mode. Yet when I try to restore it with Itunes on my windows 7 laptop it says the network connection has been reset. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network is active, or try again later. My phone has the itunes logo and charger symbol on it, as well as an arrow pointing at the Itunes logo. After holding the sleep button down or even doing the hard reset the same screen comes up on my phone regardless of whether it is plugged in or not to my computer. I have turned my computer off and on again. It is plugged in and charging as it's battery life is very short. I also reset my modem and the same error message pops up. The only option on my computer when my phone is plugged in is to restore it. My firewall also allows Itunes through it. I have literally tried everything I know being someone who knows very little about technology. I also do not want to hear about how the update worked for other people. My phone has been in recovery mode for 5 hours at least now so it will just make me more frustrated if a bunch of people post about how the update worked for them.

  • I have a 4S and just tried updating to the latest iOS version and my phone went into recovery mode and iTunes says I need to restore to factory settings. Anyone know how I can fix my phone without losing all my content?

    You would only be able to restore to a backup to iCloud or iTunes:

  • My phone went into recovery mode and had to be factory restored, I hadnt backed it up to either the cloud or a computer in a long time and therefore I have lost all of my messages.  Is there anyway to get the messages without a recent backup?

    No.

  • How to recover my pictures when phone went into recovery mode?

    how to recover my pictures when phone went into recovery mode?

    Perhaps you've been transferring them from your iOS device to your computer regularly, as recommended for any electronic image capture device?
    If not, then learn from this hard life lesson, and backup the data that is important to you... regularly.

  • Updated to iOS 6.1.2, phone went into recovery mode and will not restore, help?

    exactly as the title says.
    error 3194 came up and well yeah, nothing's working.

    Most likely you previously used an  iPhone hacking utility such as tinyumbrella that messed with your computer hosts file, blocking access to the Apple server gs.apple.com.  See this:
    Error 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194: These errors may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being redirected or blocked. Follow these steps to resolve these errors:
    Install the latest version of iTunes.
    Check security software. Ensure that communication to gs.apple.com is allowed. Follow this article for assistance with security software. iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Check the hosts file. The restore will fail if there is an active entry to redirect gs.apple.com. FollowiTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting to edit the hosts file or revert to a default hosts file. See section "Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows) > Rebuild network information".
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
    If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

  • My iphone 4s was loading a software update and went into recovery mode, I don't want to lose all my data please help me@!

    I was loading the latest software update to "fix bugs and security issues" and my phone went into "recovery mode".  I've never seen this before.  I plugged it into iTunes as shown on the screen of my phone and it says "Iphone in recovery mode detected" and suggested resetting the phone to factory settings. I don't want to lose all my data so is there another way to fix it?  All help will be appreciated!

    Sorry, whatever data you had on your phone has been wipe off already, since your phone is in recovery mode.
    You will need to restore your phone.  Then if you have a backup, you can choose that backup to restore from, if you have no backup, your only option is to sync contents from iTunes.

  • I keep getting a 3014 or -1 error after I tried to update my phone and it went into recovery mode. What do I do?

    I was updating from 6 to 6.1.2 and my phone went into recovery mode. I usually get a 3014 error but sometimes it gets past the USB screen and goes about halfway through the apple screen and gets a -1 error. I don't have firewalls, no antivirus, the only thing I have is a mandatory college internet connection program that I don't think I can get rid of. What should I do
    Also, I already tried to "Hold both home and power button, let go of the home button at the apple screen" but it didn't work.

    That is usually a result of an iPhone that at one time has been hacked, jailbroken, or rolled back. Try it on a different computer.

  • I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.something to get rid of a notification and it went into recovery mode!!! My photos are not backed up or on icloud. i havent restored yet bc i cannot lose my photos but tinyumbrella wont work. HELP! please:(

    I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.something (something about the speakers) to get rid of a notification and it went into recovery mode!!! My photos are not backed up or on icloud. i havent restored yet because i cannot lose my photos/videos, etc. but tinyumbrella wont work to exit recovery mode. HELP! please:(
    i tried tinyumbrella (and another similar software) to exit recovery but it only remains on the apple logo stuck there. please is there anything else i can do? i've contacted apple and they have told me the only choice i have is to restore and lose all my data.
    my iphone isn't jailbroken and i've updated before without this problem so i'm not sure what has happened. is there anyyy hope please ???

    First I would try to hold down the power and the home button for about 15sec, but at least as long as the iPhone restarts, if it is still stuck or still in recovery mode then I can suggest you the tool "Wondershare Dr. Fone for iOS", it is both a Windows and Mac tool and I just used it today to get my iPad out of the Recovery mode.
    Tell me if any of these options worked for you.

  • Iphone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore, only option available now is to "restore and update" however this will not work, how can you restore from a backup once in recovery mode and only option is "restore and upgrade"? Please help!

    iPhone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore it. Now the only option iTunes allows is for "restore & upgrade", it is not offer an option to restore from a backup, says that must first do the upgrade, when attempting to do the upgrade the iPhone won't accept it.
    How can I restore from a back up in recovery mode when the only option is "restore and upgrade"?
    Please help.

    You don't you must restore your phone first and then you will have the option to restore from your backup.

  • Please help me! iPod Touch 2 gen stuck in recovery mode!!

    I need help please! Yesterday, I installed the newest version of iTunes on a new PC with Windows XP, and when I connected my 2nd Gen 8GB iPod it prompted me for the new OS4 update to the iPod. I went ahead and said "yes" and walked away. At some point there was some kind of error and my iPod went into recovery mode. iTunes prompted me to restore. I have tried restoring multiple times always with the process reaching the very end where it's "verifying restore" and I get error message: An unknown error has occured (9). Error 9 helps me in no way. I feel I've tried everything and I can't get this thing out of recovery mode! Please help, I'm just sick over this. I haven't even had my iPod a year and I have loved it. Until yesterday.

  • I was updating my iphone to ios 8 and it went into recovery mode. i went onto itunes to fix it and it said i needed to update my phone. when i clicked on it it said it would take 500  hrs and kept going on, then it would crash. plz help. :(

    yesterday i tried updating to Ios 8. i new there were going to be some problems but i decided to do it. i started the update and less than a half hour into it my phone completely crashed.it went into recovery mode so i connected it to iTunes. i hit restore and update . it gave me and estimated time that kept going up. finally when it got to 800 hours it stopped and said an error occurred. i tried it again and the same error occurred. i am very disappointed in this because i greatly need my phone for school and other important things. i wasn't gonna wait that time anyway. i would like to know if there is anyway i don't have to update, get out of this screen without waiting forever, speed up the time, or get my computer to not crash when it gets to so many hours. (i have windows) plz help me out asap!!!

    I have experienced a similar error with the iPhone 4S.  The new version of iTunes will not let me restore the phone, it must be updated and nothing appears to be happening.  Suffice it to say I am not amused.  Apple needs to work this out - I had trouble updating to 8.0.2 as well.
