Updating to iOS 6.1.4 gave me lots of problems!!! no sms or photos after restore

Today I have updated my iPhone 5 using iTunes on my PC to iOS 6.1.4 but it did not go well, it just crashed and asked me to restore it from the back up which I did, but now I am missing photos and messages, what do I do to get them back to my iPhone?
P.S. Contacts, Calender are there, purchesed apps as well

Your camera roll photos are supposed to come back if they were on the phone when the back up was made.
If you want to know what is stored in a back up on itunes read the article below:

You must remember that there could possibly be more than one back up on iTunes. So make sure you a restoring from the correct back up.
Hope this helps

I bought a factory unlocked iphone 4s. it was working fine but when i upgraded it to iOS 5.1 it gave me "no sim" message. so when i tried to restore the iphone setting it is giving me now "ICCID: unknown" message please help. any ideas?

i bought a factory unlocked iphone 4s. it was working fine but when i upgraded it to iOS 5.1 it gave me "no sim" message.
so i tried then to restore the iphone using itunes but it got worse it is giving me now "ICCID: unknown" message please help. any ideas?

Please define "factory unlocked". The term is basically meaningless. iPhones are sold either carrier locked or unlocked. Some carriers will unlock them after a period of time upon meeting certain requirements and paying a fee.
There are lots of places that will "factory unlock" an iPhone. This basically translates to "hack". This can cause permanent damage to the phone. Best case scenario is these phones will re-lock to the original carrier on an update or restore. Worst case it they become expensive bricks.
ICCID unknown indicates a critical failure. There is no way to resolve this other than taking it in to Apple and getting the phone replaced. It's very possible that the phone was hacked and attempting to update has now killed it.
Where, EXACTLY, did you get this phone?

I got my iPhone 5 s almost a month ago and updated its iOS but from there on I started having problems, the ph sometimes doesn't respond at all to the touch or apps start to open on their own very rapidly and this continues till it can go no further!

I got my iPhone 5 almost a month ago and updated its iOS but from there on I started having problems, the ph sometimes doesn't respond at all to the touch or apps start to open on their own very rapidly and this continues till it can go no further!

First steps in troubleshooting:
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Then reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)

its not related to any hardware because last year april i got replacement new phone from apple and i maintained it well...!

Probably apps running in the background are causing this, sometimes Mail get's stuck connecting to the mail server, or some social media app like Facebook can also be a reason for prolonged background activity.
Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.

Has anyone encountered drastic shorter battery life both on iphone 5 and ipad since updating to iOS 6.1.2? How can this problem be solved?

Dear all,
I am new to this community even though I have been a Apple user for years, so please forgive me if this question is not in the right section.
Has anyone encountered drastic shorter battery life both on iphone 5 and ipad since updating to iOS 6.1.2? I've always been happy with these two products until the update - now the battery life is considerably shorter which is extremely frustrating.
How can this problem be solved? Is there any way to go back to the previous version?
Thanks for your help.

If you update using iTunes the phone is first wiped clean, then the new OS is installed, and finally the backup is restored. After this finishes if you sync your music should be restored. Music is not in the backup, because it is already on your computer and duplicating it would use up a lot of hard disk space.
An OTA update just patches what has changed; it does not disturb content.

HT1977 I can't get any of my previous purchased apps to show up since I updated to IOS 6.1 Does anyone else have this problem?

I Can't get my purchased apps to show up since I updated to IOS 6.1 !! Does anyone know what I need to do to fix this?

Check your Apple ID under Settings > iTunes and App Store and make sure it is entered correctly.

Hey there! :) I updated to iOS 7.1.1 and i have a problem

I updated to iOS7.1.1 like 2 weeks ago, and somebody changed my screenlock passcode and couldn't remember it so i had do restore my iPhone 4S with iTunes. Ever since, my interface looks just like the old iOS 7 (light green message icon, the keyboard is just like the old one from the iOS 7, from the screenlock you can acces your notifications and so on), but when i try to find an update it says ,,your software is up to date 7.1.1. What can i do to make it look like 7.1.1 again?

Create a backup in iTunes.
Use iTunes to restore the device to factory settings and update the iOS.

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. For the iPad Mini the iOS is 6.0.2. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

But restoring doesn't work.
Now iTunes doesn't recognized DFU.
Why?

Help! Problem with Aperture referenced photos after I updated to iPhoto 09

I updated my iPhoto library to iPhoto 09. Then I rebuilt my Aperture 2.1.4 Library.
In Aperture, when I try to edit a referenced photo imported from iPhoto, it cannot be found because it is on an unmounted volume. It is conceivable that I previously moved the original iPhoto Library to "Backup" drive – the one the referenced image is pointing to according to Aperture, then copied it to "Sally" drive – the one that iPhoto has no trouble finding, but Aperture is not pointing to.
I thought I could "manage" the referenced files and point Aperture to the correct folder within the iPhoto library – I can navigate to the folder and file, but the "Reconnect" and "reconnect All" buttons are disabled.
Does anyone have any idea how to get Aperture to reconnect to the iPhoto library? I hope I don't have to re-import the library into Aperture - that would be a nightmare!
Thank you,
Francis.

I imported my iPhoto 08 Library a while ago, using the Aperture Import iPhoto tool, choosing to "Store files in their current location" (the iPhoto Library, on Sally drive).
Much later, I had to re-jig my hard drives, renaming "Sally" to "Backup" and "Backup" to "Sally".
The iPhoto Library is on the new Sally drive and iPhoto has no trouble accessing it.
Aperture thinks the iPhoto Library is on Backup drive (which used to be called Sally). I'd like to get Aperture pointing to the iPhoto Library on Sally.
Sorry about the Sally/Backup madness, I thought I'd be detail things as much as I can.
Thanks,
Francis.

After updating to iOS 8.3 I can now no longer back up my iPhone 6 to iCloud?

It says I do not have enough storage space. But I do. It has been backing up perfectly fine until I updated to iOS 8.3 and now it says I need an extra 3.4 GB of storage space? I have all apps turned off for backing up except my photos. I only have 1.3 GB of photos. No other old backups or anything. I can't figure out what this other 3.4 GB of space is and why this just happened after updating to iOS 8.3. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!

I tried to make the same process again and it was the same. Hope someone could help me, I would really apreciate it.
Error-1 generally indicates a hardware failure. You'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.
