What happens if I recover my Iphone

I have to restore my iphone but i don't want to loose all my data. Is that what happens?

Yep, when you restore it you will lose everything you had on your iPhone. If possible, sync the iPhone and make sure it is backed up before you do the restore.

  • What happens when i restore my iPhone?

    i was curious as to what happens when you plug your iphone into itunes and click restore.
    will i lose all my contacts and pictures?
    and will it make the backlight on my iphone work?

    A restore may help your iphone - it is one of the troubleshooting steps. Page 141 of the manual:
    "If you restore, the latest version of iPhone software is reinstalled, default settings are
    restored, and data stored on iPhone is deleted, including downloaded applications,
    songs, videos, contacts, photos, calendar information, and any other data. In iTunes,
    you can also restore from a backup without deleting data stored on iPhone.
    Deleted data is no longer accessible via the iPhone user interface, but is not
    permanently erased from your iPhone until it is overwritten by new data. For
    information about permanently erasing all content and settings, see “Resetting
    iPhone” on page 109. "
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPhone_UserGuide.pdf
    I gave you the link to the Apple article to determine hardware failure earlier. If those steps or a reset, restore don't work then you need to call or visit Apple for a replacement.

    Depends which Reset you are talking about...
    The 2 listed below will cause No Loss of Content...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.

    what happens when i rest my iphone 3gs ?

    iTunes will backup the device.
    The device is erased completely.
    The current version of iOS is downloaded.
    iOS is then installed.
    You then get an option to install the previous backup or as a New device.

    Hi tinashah817,
    Was this book downloaded using iBooks, or from another application? If it was from iBooks you will need to install that application to delete it.
    See this article about managing your iBooks library on your iPhone -
    iBooks: Tips for managing your iBooks library and storage on iOS devices
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5544
    Once the book has been deleted from the iPhone you can uninstall the iBooks application if you so desire.

    If you are talking about activation lock you are out of luck. Without that information you cannot activate the device and have just lost your money. Unless you can find the person and get your money back.

  • What happens after 1st year on iPhone contract,ie if in Month 13 get a prob

    I'm thinking of signing upto a new iPhone on an 18month contract in UK
    I know everything has a 1year warranty and I know you can pay extra for AppleCare, or mobile phone insurance but I wont be.
    So what happens after 1st year if you get a problem with the iPhone? who is responsible? is it Apple or O2? and will it be fixed for free?
    bit nervous as its an expensive gadget and if a prob occurs after 1 year?
    cheers

    "suppose, but just with it being used everyday, in pocket, passed around etc etc think it may go wrong, and Loc's law it will go in month 13 onwards!!"
    Still, the warranty is no different than any other warranty on every other product you have ever owned. It is for a specified period (one year being a good length compared to other phones/computers,etc).
    Do you worry this much over every other product that you buy?
    Do all of the other products that you own break right after the warranty expires?
    I always get Applecare and have only had to use it once ( a cd drive on a laptop needed to be replaced).
    I have dropped my iphone more than once and it is fine.

  • What happened to 3G on my iPhone 4s?

    i've had 3 iPhones, all on AT&T. My 3GS and my 4 both display two network icons: E and 3G.  but then I got my iPhone 4s, and I noticed a new icon: AT&T 4G. Ever since day one, I've only seen EDGE and 4G. What happened to the AT&T 3G network icon on the iPhone 4s? Shouldn't it say 3G as I dont think the iPhone 4s is a 4G LTE phone

    a reset no data loss. hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release.
    Or settings - general - reset - reset network settings.
    Or contact your cell phone provider.

    My ipod is blue and I'm going to recover it , but what happens after I do will it still work ? Will all my stuff be deleted? Does it turn like when you first got it? Will I have iOS 6?

  • What happened to all the 3G iPhone posts?

    What happened to all the posts from people who said they had the new iPhone and liked it so much better than the original?
    I think it's funny that they were talking like they had the phone in-hand, blah blah, but now all of those posts are gone...?

    I knew that, just thought it was funny. They almost had me believing it was out until I saw the announcement for July 11.

  • What happens if I lose my iphone 4

    then I tell my insurance company (Natwest)
    They give me a new phone?
    Then what happens if I find my phone that I lost
    Message was edited by: will369

    If your insurance company provides a new phone, or pays for replacement, and you then find the phone you lost, you need to immediately call the insurance company. Legally the old phone belongs to them (since they paid for its replacement), but the policy may call for specific remedies in such circumstances. Only your insurance company can tell you how to proceed.
    Regards.

  • What happens when I press 'erase iphone' in the icloud?

    If I lose my phone and erase it on the icloud via find my iphone, does that erase everything including photos, contacts and facebook?
    and what does the lost mode do?
    thanks

    Does that mean that all app activity and all photos etc are erased, so it returns to factory settings
    and lost mode I am still a bit unclear on what it does?
    thanks!

  • What happens with iTunes and your iPhone when you change computers ?

    Hello everyone,
    I'm thinking of getting a new computer. I got an iPhone 3GS and I love it. However I was wondering. If I buy a new computer will it be able to let me use my iPhone on iTunes like I did in the past. I know I'll have to transfer my iTunes Library etc.
    My question to explain my concern simply is: let's say I keep my iPhone for the next ten years, if each year I get a new computer and throw away the old one, will I be able each time to use it with my new computer ?
    Or does it have some sort of link with the PC like Win XP's licence where if you change the motherboard Microsoft won't let you reactivate Windows as it considers it's another PC (with OEM licences).
    Sorry for the dumb question but I couldn't find any infos on that.
    Thanks !

    "Just move the library and that's it ?"
    Move everything that you want to keep to the new computer ( pics,docs, contacts, calendars, etc.).
    "What about the 5 computers sync thingy?"
    What 5 computer thingy? You can authorize up to five computers to play itunes protected music purchases ( pre-itunes plus). This has nothing to do with ipod/iphones. When you finish moving everything from the old computer to the new, just de-authorize the old one.
    When you sync to another computer, it will erase the content from the iphone and replace with content from the new computer. This is why you need to move everything to the new computer first.

  • What happens if i charge my iphone all night?

    i get home late from school and when i get home i use it for homework. but i dot want to charge it while i use it, i heared its bad. so i was wondering what are the pro and cons of charging it overnight! Thanks no rude comments

    Nothing. It's safe because the iPhone battery stops being charged when it is full, so it won't damage the phone
