Transfer only text messages from backup

I have a Q5 and I did a software update on my phone few hours ago. Everything worked well except that my text messages are all gone.
I have taken backup but how do I only restore text messages from backup. Please help

Kacper,
Using itunes you are able to restore from a previuosly backedup IOS. However, it's not possible to 'cherry pick' what it is you will be restoring from the backup. The backup is stored in a compressed file which requires extraction prior to using it.

good luck.

  • How to transfer contacts & text messages from 6230...

    I have recently bought a 5230 Navi and also transferred from Virgin to 3 because the phone I bought, via eBay, although brand new and never used was locked to 3 and apparently the 5230 is difficult to get unlocked other than through 3.
    Can anyone give me a step by step procedure for the easiest and quickest way to transfer my contacts and text message from my old phone to my new phone.
    I tried to do a backup with Nokia Phone Suite but it didn't seem to write my contacts or messages to it's file.
    Thanks

    Just try it.. Even if the old phone does not have it; when you start 'Phone Switch' it will prompt you that the old phone does not have it but do you want to send the application to the old phone? ...and  when you select 'yes' the application is sent thru' sms... and you may be able to install it on the old phone and perform the switch... ( your old phone should atleast be compatible for this though...)

  • How can I transfer my text messages from my Nokia N series to Iphone 4??

    How I can move my SMS messages from my old Nokia N series to my iPhone  4G ?

    You can't. What you could do is import your SMS's from your Nokia to your computer, save them as a PDF, then import the PDF to your iPhone. That way you'd have them for reference on your phone, but there is no way to import them to the iPhone message app.

  • Restoring Only Text Messages and Phonecall History From Backup

    Hello,
    I just restored my iPhone and I was wondering if there was a way to restore only text messages and phonecall history from my back up this morning.
    The backup is located on my Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard if that helps. Thanks in advance for any help.
    Rgds,

    Welcome to the discussions,
    you can only restore the whole content of the backup, at least that's what is supported by Apple. There is software out there letting you read and extract parts of your backup, for example photos, but you'll have to use this on your own risk. One example can be found here: http://supercrazyawesome.com/
    Whatever you do, make sure to back up your backup folder before, or use Time Machine to do it for you.

    How can I retrieve my deleted text messages from my iPhone 5s?  I don't sync to a computer, only to iCloud.  My last backup was 2/19/14.

    Unless you had them backed up somewhere, I'm afraid they are gone.

    Hi, does anyone know how to transfer and save text messages from the iPhone to a desktop? Thanks

    Songs that you downloaded to your iPad before playing them can be removed by swiping across the song title and tapping Deleted.  Music that you played without downloading them can only be removed by turning off iTunes Match in Settings>Music (which will remove all the music from your iPad).  Then you can turn iTunes Match back on again and download/play the music you want again.

    I'd like to backup my text conversations to my iPad from my iPhone 4.
    Is there a way of doing so?
    Thanks

    Not without restoring your iPad from the backup of your iPhone, which will revert all data and settings on your iPad to those contained in this backup, not just text message conversations.

    On previous iPhones you could go to settings and block the the actual text message from pooping up. Only the sender would show up. On the i4gs the sender and message show up. This is a major flaw as far as privacy. There are no options with in settings to stop this from happening. PLEASE TELL ME IM WRONG ???

    YOU ARE WRONG.
    Go to Settings > Notifications > Messages. You can turn Notifcation Center off for Messages, or select None for the alert style, and turn Show Preview off, and view in Lock Screen on or off.
