Recovering backup data from a previous version of Rescue and Recovery

Dear All,
can you please advice how can I restore the system&data (Windows 7)
I created recovery CDs and did the full backup (USB drive)
I changed disk (diagnostic reported warnings for the old one)
I recovered system from CD
I wanted to recover full backup/image from USB drive, however
after reboot R&R 4 starts and error message "... backup taken with previous version..." is displayed.
I wanted to recover single file (R&R 4.31) from USB drive, however
error message "The list box identifierwas not found" is displayed
What shall I do? upgrade R&R to 4.51? downgrade R&R to 4 (where are downloads)? something else? what R&R versions exist for W7?
thanks in advance.

Thank you for coming back to my issue.
Creation date of \RRbackups: Jun 11, 2013
USB backup is Win7 backup.
What shall I look for in folder\rr.log? I am copying here the last unsuccesful recovery attempt>

How to recover lost data from a mac that was erased and locked using findmyiphone app

Hi,
My macbook pro was locked and erased using find my iphone app then it was recovered. I entered my pin and unlocked it. I then have the option to reinstall the OS on a new hard drive or my old one (which is blocked).
What do I do if i want to recover all of my old data?

Alas the answer is : NO
If you have an external HD, you may try tun run a recovery tool instlled on this external device searching for keystring "index.xml"
With a bit of luck, it will retrieve an old copy of your document.
I hope that this time you will understand that working the way you did is playing with matches.
Whe you work on a document already saved once, duplicate the document before opening it and check that both copies are OK.
This way you will have at least a copy containg the datas from the 25 first day.
During the working session, don't save with the name of the opened doc, save vert ten minutes with different names.
Doing that you will recover at least the copy which you opened.

Rescue and Recovery, restoring files from a vista system to a new Windows 7 system.

I had been using rescue and recovery to back up the system on my Thinkpad X300, up until a few months ago. The OS was vista, and I have since upgraded to Windows 7. Yesterday, my laptop was stolen, and have lost a good amount of important data. Before I go shelling out $$$ for a new thinkpad, My question is, will I be able to use Rescue and Recovery on a Windows 7 system for files that were backed up on a system running vista?

mottowa2, welcome to the forum,
sorry to hear your ThinkPad was stolen, not a nice thing to happen
I think the important factor is how / where you have saved your R&R backups. I'm guessing you copied them to other media?
On the download site for R&R v.4.3, which is only compatible with W7, it states;
If you want to retain the ability to restore from backups created with a previous version of Rescue and Recovery, you must create a copy of your backup files on bootable, external recovery media before installing the latest version.
To archive your backups, complete the following procedure:
From the Rescue and Recovery main screen, click Backup, and then select Copy backups from hard drive from the drop-down list.
Select the medium you want to save your backup files to by clicking the appropriate radio button. The backup files that will be copied are listed on the user interface.
Click OK to continue
2. You will need blank removable media when copying backups from the hard drive to CD or DVD. Make sure that you label each disc as it is created, and that you store them together in a safe place.
Note: You will be prompted to make the external media bootable at the beginning of the process.
I believe, and sincerely hope, that all may not be lost.
Let us know

Rescue and Recovery: Backup does not finish.

I very recently updated my Rescue and Recovery, now it runs version 4.21.12.0. When I do a backup, it does it just fine, but: After a message that the backup was done successfully, a message comes with a rotating hourglass, saying: "Finalizing backup, please wait..." This message stays forever and only goes away when I kill "Rescue and Recovery" with Windows' Task Manager. This did not happen with the previous version of Rescue and Recovery.
a) Does killing the Rescue and Recovery program at this point affect the actual backup files in a negative way? Or are they just fine, this being just a "cosmetic" problem"?
b) Is this my problem somehow, or a programming bug of Rescue and Recovery that should disappear with the next release?
Thank you for your help,
Wolfgang

hi there,
I have the same question as well. Just like you, I went to the task Manager, it states 'rescue and recovery running', then I did a right click, and go to its proces, I found out that the corresponding file "MsgBox.exe" have 00 value under CPU; and constant 6,496k under physical mem usage for hours, so I assumed that it will bea message box bug and shouldn't affect the backup dat. But again, I am not 100% sure. Guess i might wait for the answer as well.

Recovering Rescue and Recovery data from a T61p with the GPU failure problem

My t61p has the GPU (1 long 2 short beeps) problem described in another thread. Apart from getting the laptop fixed, which will take several weeks, I have a more pressing problem getting my data back from this laptop.
I have been using Lenovo Rescue and Recovery religiously for the last two years to create monthly incremental backups on a USB drive. While I am trying to get my laptop repaired, I would like to at least recover my files from the backup and start working on a different machine.
I was told by Lenovo support that the only way to get to the data is to connect the drive to another T61p, running the exact same version of Rescue and Recovery I had on my original T61p. For one, I have to idea what version of R&R I had on my laptop. Secondly, I am in no position to get another T61p just to recover the data.
I would have thought that there would be a version of R&R that I could run on any Windows machine, and recover the data, but apparently that's not so.
Does anyone have any suggestions about how I can recover my data?
Thanks.

Hi,
the basic and most importatnt information, in this case is, that RnR can detect/read backups that have been captured using the very same version as you are using right now.
So in case you captured your backup using version xx.xx.xxx1 you cannot restore, or recover your backup using the version xx.xx.xxx2. You need to us the very same version.
As Win7 uses different version of RnR, this is the root cause.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

Where is Rescue and Recovery 4.50 for Windows 7 and why was it removed from the support site?

When Rescue and Recovery 4.51 was released a few weeks ago, all references to the previous version were replaced. Unfortunately, the new release is not supported on the R series machines nor on the earlier T series machines, so for those machines, the only version of Rescue and Recovery for Windows 7 that is available is version 4.30.0027 which was released in September 2009.
This makes no sense.
Please re-instate the documentation and download links for Rescue and Recovery 4.50 for all machines which were supported on that release but are not on version 4.51.
ThinkPad R61 8932-CTO T8300 2.40 Ghz 3GB RAM Win XP
ThinkPad R500 2714-CTO P8600 2.40 Ghz 3GB RAM Win XP; Two ThinkPad R500's 2714-CTO T9600 2.80 Ghz 4GB RAM Win 7

ThinkCenter A63 5237-CTO 3GB Ram Win XP; A21m and a pair of 380XD's

Thank you for your response.
The R61 and the R500 that I own, that are currently running Windows XP are staying there until Microsoft stops supporting Windows XP, at which point I will decide what to do with them, so trying 4.51 on them is not currently an option.
As an IT professional, I tend to be the support guy for all the Lenovo computers in my family. My son also has an R500, which was purchased used, and it came with Windows 7. When I set it up for him, I installed Rescue and Recovery 4.5 over 4.3 before taking the original full system image backups. He would loose the capability to use those backups if I were to try to downgrade that machine to Rescue and recovery 4.3. My own R500 came with Rescue and Recovery 4.30.0025, (for which there is no documentation nor download links available, to my knowledge), and I have never upgraded it, because I am concerned that all my backups would become unreadable if I did. I don’t think it is worth the effort to make all the external bootable backups that upgrading the software would require. I would upgrade if I was assured that version 4.30.0027 could read the backups taken by version 4.30.0025.
There were 2 more versions of Rescue and Recovery. There was version 4.31.007 released on 2010/09/28 and version 4.31.011 released on 2011/03/04. The document ID’s for release 4.51 are the same as those for the 4.31 releases, so I should assume that Lenovo considers the 4.31 releases a major advance over the 4.30 release, and thus not a valid fallback option but why not?

Deleting Rescue and Recovery backups

I using WinXP+SP3 and Rescue and Recovery 4. I launch Rescue and Recovery via Start-Programs-ThinkVantage-Rescue and Recovery. In the Window that opens I click 'Change schedule, name a backup, delete backups'. Another Windown opens and I can see my backups listed at the bottom of this Window. When I select a backup to delete, a small Window opens that asks if I'm sure I want to delete the backup. I say 'yes'. Another Windown opens that says 'Please wait while the backups are deleted'.
My issue is Rescue and Recovery seems to hang and never finishes the backup deletion. I see the access light on my external drive blink at first so Rescue and Recovery seems to be doing something at first but the 'Please wait while the backups are deleted' never closes. I let the delete run all night and when I got up, the Window was still there. I tried to delete another backup and got the same result.
What is causing the problem? I can see the contents of my external drive in Windows Explorer so I know my PC can access it.

rmbowma, welcome to the forum,
delete the last backup on it's own first, you should then be able to delete other backups.
Please remember that they are incremental backups, you can't delete for instance backups 2-5 leaving 1 & 6 as 6 is dependent on 2-5.
Hope this helps

Cannot start from the system after rescue and recovery

I have T42 and did "restore factory contents." In the process, I use IBM product recovery CD from 1 to 6 and reboot. However it does not start from Windows XP but IBM rescue and recovery with rapid restore. I cannot get out form this although I restart the computer. I appreciate any advice. Thanks.

Hello and welcome,
My memory is a little fuzzy on this, but IIRC some of the older laptops used a 2-step recovery process. You first did the recovery from CD which put the recovery image and restore program on the HD. One the next boot, the restore program starts, and you select to restore your drive from there.
So, do the recovery from media, reboot to the newly installed restore program, and select to restore your hard drive.
I hope that makes sense... and applies to your machine...

Is it possible to recover my data from iCloud backup without working wifi? I have as many other upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.0.2 with the result that the Wi-Fi or Bluetooth no longer works. However, i can connect to iTunes via cable but there is wrong version of backup.

Answer is no.
If you want the iCloud backup you have to have n internet connection, thus WiFi.
The not working WiFi has happened with quite a number of users.
It is not exactly clear what is the cause but there are suggestions to clear it up:
Some people have had success by removing an apostrophe from the iPhone name. If your iPhone is called something like “John’s iPhone” then this might work. Go to Settings > General > About > Name and change it to something with no apostrophe.
Some people have reported success by putting the iPhone into Airplane mode and then going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings, but the problem may return.
You could also try going to Settings > Control Center and disable Access on Lock Screen then turn your iPhone off and on again.
Make sure that your router firmware is up to date.
Try backing up your iPhone and then restoring it. Check how to factory reset an iPhone for details.
If nothing is working for you, try contacting Apple or take your iPhone into an Apple Store.
Succes, Lex

Recovering lost data from a very old backup (disaster recovery)

Hi all,
I am trying to restore and recover data from an old DAT-72 cassette. All I know is the date when the backup was taken, that is back in November 2006. I do not know the DBID or anything else except for the date.
To recover this, I bought an internal SCSI HP c7438a DAT-72 tape drive on eBay and installed it on a machine running Windows 2003 Server SP2. I made a fresh Oracle 11g Enterprise Edition installation. HP tape drivers have been installed and Windows sees the tape drive without problem. To act as a Media Manager, I have installed Oracle Secure Backup. Oracle Secure Backup sees the HP tape drive without problems as well.
I have to admit my information about Oracle is not very in-depth. I read quite a lot of documents, but the more I read the more confused I become. The closest thing I can find to my situation is the following guide about disaster recovery:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10500_01/server.920/a96566/rcmrecov.htm#1007948
I tried the suggestions in this document without success (details below).
My questions are:
1. Is it possible to retrieve data without knowing the DBID?
2. If not, is it possible to figure out the DBID from the tape? I tried to use dd in cygwin, also booted with Knoppix/Debian and Ubuntu CDs to dump the contents of the tape with dd but all of them failed to see the tape device. If there is any way to dump the raw contents of the tape on Windows, I would also welcome input.
3. Is there any way at all to recover this data from the tape given all the unknowns?
Thanks very much in advance,

Hi 845725,
If the backups were created with OSB might be you can query the tape with obtool.
http://www.stanford.edu/dept/itss/docs/oracle/10gR2/backup.102/b14236/obref_oba.htmTo list pieces you could use <lspiece> within obtool.
http://www.stanford.edu/dept/itss/docs/oracle/10gR2/backup.102/b14236/obref_oba.htm#BHBBIFFEIf this works you should be able to identify the controlfile autobackup if it has the standard naming < c-dbid-date-xx > and you than know the DBID or you are able to restore a controlfile from a backup piece in the output list.
Might be you have to install 9i or 10g rdbms software as 11g was released a year later in 2007.
Anyway goodluck.
Regards,
Tycho

I need to recover deleted data from my iPhone 4S but don't have a recent backup. I thought by pressing sync on my macbook this would back up-but I was wrong. There are no backups on my macbook and the latest backup on iCloud was Jan 2012. Please help

I need to recover deleted data from my iPhone 4S but don't have a recent backup. I thought by pressing sync on my macbook this would back up…but I was wrong. There are no backups on my macbook and the latest backup on iCloud was Jan 2012. My mum died in May and I had lots of text messages that I wanted to keep. I really want to get them back. Is there any way at all I can get that deleted data from the phone?

Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer. As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you. I'm sure you'll pay, however.
Let this be a very important lesson learned.
Best.

Is there a way to ONLY restore your mail toolbar settings from a previous version?

Is there a way to ONLY restore your mail toolbar settings from a previous version? I did a clean install and I love it except I lost my mac mail toolbar setup and my muscle memory is all out of whack now. Is there a way to mine the old preference files I have on backup for this data?
Thanks!

Awesome thanks! I just replaced the new preference file with this one from my old Time Machine backup and everything is back to how it was before.

How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12?

How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12? Do I restore from a backup? I have over 12,000 pics ( a good portion with multiple versions) and don't want to lose captions and metadata. Thank you in advance for your help.

If this is on the same computer just install PSE 12. It should find your old catalog and upgrade it to PSE 12. If for some reason it doesn't, then go to file>manage catalogs, find your old catalog and tell PSE 12 to convert it.
If this is a new computer, then yes, full backup and restore.

Tunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases.
