Recover messages after restore?

I recently dropped my phone in water, and after putting it in rice, blowdrying it, and the whole nine, I was able to get it working again. When It came on, I received new messages. The phone then cut off and I had to restore it again, it is working fine now, but the messages were missing. Is there a way I can get them back?

No... the only way to recover them would be to restore from a backup created after the messages were received.

How to recover photos after restoring iPod touch?

Yesterday, there was an update for the iOS 6, I believe. When I pressed the update button, a message popped up saying that there was a problem with my iPod touch 4G and that I need to restore it. I had absolutely no idea why that message would pop up in the first place because my iPod was working just fine. But I couldn't update my iPod to the newest version if I didn't do what iTunes says... so I was about to restore my iPod, but then I was worried that all of my photos would disappear. So I decided to update my iOS later so that I could transfer all my files on to my computer. I then unplugged my iPod, and tried to turn it on but the home screen wouldn't pop - no matter what I did, all the screen showed was an itunes icon on top with a USB plug-in cord at the bottom. So I had no choice but to restore my iPod. The thing is, once I restored my iPod and all, my photos were all gone and I did not use iCloud as a back-up since a few months ago. All of my recent photos are now gone and I have no idea how to recover them. I've tried programs that aim to recover deleted photos, but they didn't work.
Is there a way to recover photos after restoring the iPod Touch?

Hello,
It is very important to backup your device to the computer before updating or restoring.
You can restore your device to a previous backup, all the photos that were there when you made the backup should return with it, but I'm afraid that any photos taken or saved after the last backup are unrecoverable.
I hope this helps.

How can I see my messages after restoring from backup?

I have 2.1gb of messages saved in my storage on my 4s but they're not in messages after restoring from backup.
How can I get all my messages back in my message app because I know they're their it's just a matter of getting them restored into the app.

When you restored your phone from an old backup, it wiped ALL data from your phone and replaced it with the data from that backup. It's like your phone went back in time.
Your data that was on the phone before you did the restore is now gone forever. There is no way to get these data back.

They would only be stored in your backup. If they didn't restore properly all you can do is try restoring the backup again.

Lost all Messages after restoring backup on x2-01

i have a nokia x2-01 and i have backed up all my messages to a memory card... then i restored that backup.. and after restore there are no messages in my messages folder.... is there any way to restore all my messages??

The problem is probably that the mailbox has lost the .mbox suffix in the filesystem.
Report the names of the files and folders present at the first level of the ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/ account folder in the Finder.
In order to post the exact file names and avoid typing mistakes, proceed as follows. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/. With that folder open, if you’re looking at it in View > as List mode, first collapse any expanded folders so that the Finder only shows the files and folders at the first level. Now, do Edit > Select All (⌘A), then Edit > Copy (⌘C), and paste it in your reply to this post.
You’ll probably see an INBOX folder without the .mbox suffix there. If that’s the case, quit Mail and rename the folder to INBOX.mbox.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.

Is there a way to recover messages after they've been moved from local folders to an IMAP account, which deleted them after they were moved?

I was trying to get Thunderbird to access my Hotmail account through IMAP instead of POP, so I moved all my messages from the account to "Local Folders", then I removed the POP account and created the new IMAP one. After that I started to move messages into the IMAP account, but I ran into some trouble when the server wouldn't want to accept all the messages I was uploading and it would stop.
So, I decided to move everything from "Local Folders" into the IMAP account while Thunderbird was offline, once it finished, I went online and instead of uploading the newly found messages in my IMAP account to the server, it decided to delete the messages. I guess because the actual online account contained no files so it wanted to synchronise and make my offline folder to also contain no files.
In short, never try this. It's a disaster. And, I know I should've made a back up prior to trying this, it's just that Thunderbird is usually very reliable, it never occurred to me.
I still have the MBOX and MSF files, but even though they contain information, no extension can extract it.
Could anyone, please, help me out?

Hi,
I had tried using that very same extension right after messing things up, but it hadn't worked because I deleted the original folders as well.
Then I tried doing a System Restore (luckily, Windows had decided to do an automatic one the night before), but still the missing emails weren't showing.
A while after that I saw your suggestion and it hit me that I had not tried it after doing the System Restore, so I tried it and all messages were flooding back just like magic.
Thank you very much for your help! I'm very happy right now.

HT201263 SIM code message after restoring but phone screen shows only Apple logo

iTunes says its restoring my iPhone 3Gs then I get the message "The SIM card inserted in this iPhone is PIN locked. Please enter the PIN code of your SIM card and connect your iPhone to iTunes again". Problem is I can't-- the phone displays only the Apple logo again! Any ideas of what to do next? Not looking good! I have tried restarting computer and getting phone turned off and in recovery mode. Still same problem.

My husband brought up a point- I'm not sure if I did a back-up on my phone after I updated to iOS 6. The backup in iTunes can be from an earlier iOS . Could this be an issue??

I need help!! My iPhone 4s lost contacts in messages after restore! How can I fix this?

Earlier today I turned my phone off and back on...then I noticed that my contacts in my messages were not showing up, only the numbers. I tried to do a backup restore-- didn't work. I tried adding a +1 in front of all my contacts, that didn't work either. My contacts are still there, they are just not syncing with my messages. How can I fix this?

Need to recover messages after rebuild

I was getting the downloaded message error in my inbox, so I hit the rebuild button and all my messages disappeared. I saw in your a few apple discussion forums that there was a way to recover them. I have moved my inbox to my desktop and the package content sizes are:
content_index - 1 MB
mbox - 1.13GB
tableofcontents - 4kb
Obviously there is still something in there. How can I get these inbox messages back? Please help.

Fabrizio,
You are likely a candidate for the mailbox splitter script that I can send you, by email (and may still have a link, but not sure). First read the User Tip at:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=121837
and the link within, which is repeated, below:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25812
In addition to the script, there would be a way to import the mailbox into Mail 2.0.5 and split, but this would require some special knowledge to then export the two or more replacement mailboxes back into Mail 1.3.11 format, but I know how to do this.
If you want the script you will need to email me, at my address found in the bio line of my Profile (click on my name to access). To be able to send, you need to set this Sent Messages.mbox aside, and let Mail create a new Sent mailbox. This old one will have to be split into several new mailboxes, anyway, and this can be done while it is on the Desktop.

N73 error message after restore from PC Suite

Hi,
I have recently received an insurance replacement for my damaged N73. I restored my settings etc via the PC suite. Now I have two problems:
- The programmable buttons have no function assigned to them
- When I try and access tools then settings I get the error message "Unable to open settings. Back up and restore in progress"
The restore process seemed to copmplete successfully, I've tried powering off and on, removing the battery, running the restore again with the same result.
The software version is V3.0638.0.0.1
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks!

Try updating the phones firmware to see if that cures it.

Then try to restore your old settings.
If this doesn't solve your problems then the handset may be faulty.

How to recover photos after restore without backup?

Hello
Basically, a couple weeks ago my iPod 4th gen died.
I went out to buy a new charger. This charger worked for a while, but then stopped.
Every time I plugged it in, it would show me the screen that indicates
that I have to connect my iPod to iTunes.
So, I bought a new charger and used it to connect to iTunes,
only to find out that my iPod was in Recovery Mode!
The only option was to restore it. I tried to back it up, however the options
were all greyed out. A pop-up indicated that I could get my contacts and what not
back after the restore, so I did it.
After the restore, my iPod went back to the factory settings.
I was happy, thinking that there was a backup of all my photos saved to my computer.
Yet when I check iTunes, I could not restore the backup!
I am honestly so devastated. I could care less about the contacts and apps, but I had
pictures of my younger cousins and family collected for over 4 years.
I'd really love to get these back. I tried using those recovery programs, but nothing
worked for me! I also tried to get a back up from an older computer I used, but it said that I'd
never done a back up on that computer.
This whole situation has upset me, I'm not sure of what to do now.
I just really want those photos back.
Thank you for reading, sorry that this is so long.
Any solutions? (iPod 4th gen, iOS 6.1.6)

No, updating iTunes does not delete any iOS device backups.

Recovering photos after restoring backup overwrites content on phone

There were two iPhones on one iCloud account. Randomly the contacts from one phone ended up on the other and were deleted. This caused the contacts from the original phone to be deleted also. Upon trying to restore the deleted contacts, the content from the other phone overwrote the content of the original phone (because the original wasn't backed up on the cloud). The photos of the original phone were overwritten with the restoration of the backup. Is there any way that the photos can be retrieved? The music from the original phone remains which leads me to think that there might be some way to get the pictures back

Camera roll photos can only be restored by restoring the backup. If the backup doesn't contain the photos you're looking for, they can't be recovered. You music and other purchased media is redownloaded from the iTunes store when you restore a backup. If the music was on the phone that was backed up, it will be restored to the device you restore the backup to.
