Retrieve info before backup

Basically, last night I had a blinking update sign on my N900. I clicked to update as I normally do. The update was 100% successful (Before this, my last update was on 20th April 2010).
As the phone re-booted itself I checked my messages and found that all my new messages have vanished from my Conversations & recently added contacts between 20th April - 28th May (last night)!!! ;0(
I contacted Nokia and they said there is a way to retrieve these but when I took it to a Nokia Centre (in Carphone Warehouse) they said they will need to reboot the whole thing and everything will be deleted!
Can anybody PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help??!!
THANK YOU

Hiya,
Yes I did. It was 100% successful... that's the reason im a little confused?! Iv just been to two Nokia Support Centres in Carphone Warehouse where the engineer was baffled! Iv ONLY lost text messages over the last month but still have my pictures, music etc. Normally it wouldn't bother me but the messages had very important info - reason why im panicking!!
My Backup reads as follows:
Backup4 29/05/10 This is backup Carphone Warehouse just tried (but took me back to settings as Backup 2)
Backup3 28/05/10 This is yesterday backup which lost my messages - 4.3MB
Backup2 03/04/10 Previous backup (the stage where my phone is now) - 3.4MB
Backup1 22/03/10
Backup 30/01/10
I would appreciate any help!! Iv read loads of forums and apparently there is a way to retrieve everything but Im not too good at this!!
Thank You for replying back!!

How can I retrieve the temporary backup which is done just before ios 5 update?

How can I retrieve the temporary backup which is done just before ios 5 update? Because I set up wrongly as new iphone and want to retrive the backup before the ios 5 update. But I never sync to itune before. When I find the previous backups, I can find only one backup which is done after ios 5 update.

I've never faced this case myself, but from the documentation it would seem that the INSTEAD OF DELETE is also a FOR EACH ROW trigger. Therefore, you don't really have to worry about the actual "where" clause of the original "delete" operation: Oracle has it all parsed for you, so you just need to redirect, in turn, each view record being deleted to the appropriate table.
In extenso: for your
delete vt12 where m = 1;
=> the INSTEAD OF trigger fires once for all records in vt12 where m=1, and I would guess that you trigger code should look like:
begin
delete from t1 where m = :old.m and n = :old.n and o = :old.o;
delete from t2 where a = :old.m and b = :old.n and c = :old.o;
end;
It's a bit of overkill compared to the "where" clause of the original "delete" statement, but it should do the job...
BTW, if by any luck you do have some primary key on tables t1 and t2 (say: columns o and c respectively), then obviously you can make the thing simpler:
begin
delete from t1 where o = :old.o;
delete from t2 where c = :old.o;
end;

If you don't have a backup then the only possible solution is to go back to the store and see if they can get your old phone and create a backup of that. I know very often that Apple employees will wipe the returned iPhones clean before shipping them back to wherever they ship them.
When you say your old phone was "broken" does this mean it is dead and won't turn on?
Do you have a Time Machine backup of your computer, or a clone that might have this info on it?
Other than that I hate to say you may be out of luck. Time Machine and/or a cloning program performed regularily will inevitably save your a** in situations like this.
Good luck

I just Backed-up my iphone data on itunes and now i dont know where to find it. Where do i go to retrieve my iphone backup data?

You don't "retrieve it"
You can restore your iphone from the last backup to put the info back on the iphone.

I have my iPhone 4s backed up on my mac but it seems it was encrypted with a password which i do not remember is there any other option to retrieve to the backup without restoring the device as a new one. Also I do not have access to a windows system.

Sorry no, if you don't knnow the encrypted password, then you can't use that backjup.

Upgraded to larger HD cannot retrieve from earlier backups on Time Capsule... help!

Hi I Took out my small, original HD and upgraded to larger HD. Cloned my computer and reistalled it onto the new HD. Now, I cannot retrieve from earlier backups from older HD. I can see the data in pink on right, but it refuses to go past the day of new HD installation. How can I get there from here? Thanks...

If you cloned the disk you should have all the existing files on the original disk.
The new disk is seen as a different computer..
See stuff in pondini about accessing time machine from another Mac.. as that is effectively what you are doing.

Look at Q17.. but all the questions, 14-18 are relevant.

Retrieve entire before update row image

I am attempting to capture the entire row in a goldengate trail file with an ascii text file format. I am able to extract my captured changes to a flat file with use of the formatascii option in the extract parameter file. I am able to get some of the before image values for columns referenced in the update by using getupdatebefores. However, I would like to see before images for all columns in the row, not just those columns that updated.
A sample:
sjb_ext.prm:
extract sjb_ext
userid ggs_user, password ggs_pass
tranlogoptions excludeuser ggs_iccon
statoptions, reportfetch
cachemgr cachesize 50MB
formatascii, sqlloader
exttrail /ggs_trail/sb
wildcardresolve dynamic
getupdatebefores
table sjb.my_table;
from sqlplus:
create table sjb.my_table
(col_a number not null,
col_b varchar2(1) not null,
col_c date not null
alter table sjb.my_table add constraint my_table_pk primary key(col_a);
insert into sjb.my_table (1,'A',to_date('01-JAN-2010'));
commit;
in sb000000:
IAN1 NAN2010-01-01:00:00:00
sqlplus:
update sjb.my_table set col_b = 'E' where col_a = 1;
commit;
in sb000000:
VBN1 NA
VAN1 NE
I only get the fields which the update statement itself manipulated plus the primary key fields. As default behavior, this makes perfect sense to me. However, I'd like to get the before images for all columns on an update, not just the columns affected by the update statement. How can I configure my extract to retrieve the before images for all columns in the update statement?
desire trail file output:
VBN1 NEN2010-01-01:00:00:00
VAN1 NEN2010-01-01:00:00:00

Hi,
I just want to add that instead of adding supplemental logging you can set it to be add automatically with each TABLE statement like this:
TABLE <schema>.<table>, FETCHCOLS (*);
for all columns
or
TABLE <schema>.<table>, FETCHCOLS (COL1,COL2...);
for just desired columns
Cheers

Backup and protect info before repair

Can i just backup the entire USER folder and delete it off the system before sending it to apple for repair?
I need to protect sensitive data.
Does anyone see a downside to this in this new OS?
MacbookAir, 2014, OS 10.10
macuser since 1984

You will be making things difficult for the person doing the repair. Since he will not be able to boot the system up to check out his work without a Home directory.
Really if you have any sensitive data it should be stored in an encrypted Sparse disk image all the time. Once you do then no one but yourself can every see the sensitive data.

Retrieve info from icloud or backup if iphone stolen

How do I retrieve photos and contacts from icloud or backup if iphone stolen?

You can't merge accounts to get a merged restore. Where was the last backup made on the old phone? Use that backup for a restore.
