Cannot Backup / Restore Text Messages And Phone Contacts For IPhone 3GS On ITunes?

Aug 31, 2014

iPhone 3GS
iOS 6.1.6
Win XP sp3 Â

I had assumed i would be able to save/backup/restore the most important info on my cell like my text messages, phone contacts and ALL my photos in my photostream thru iTunes and NOT have to shell out $3.99US + taxes to be able to do so! The App Store has only 1 free app (out of a whopping 5) which, of course, i cannot use on my 6.1.6 iOS..

How can i backup my messages and contacts? How do I add more options from where I backup email contacts etc etc OTHER than just Microsoft programs? i.e. From Chrome or FireFox.

How do I save and access ALL my 600 pics from my phone when only 56 are listed to be able to be saved on iTunes? Would I be completely delusional to hope there is an app or software that could do a cross-platform transfer of my stuff to an Android phone....??Â

Info:
iPhone 3GS, iOS 6.1.6

Xperia Z5 :: How To Restore Text Messages From Backup Made On Phone

Jul 3, 2010

My old Xperia TX is encrypted. So "Xperia Transfer Mobile" app and "PC Companion" are not working here.

Internal "Backup & restore" app exist on both phones - my new Z5 and TX and serves the same way - it can back up all text messages (and other data which I don't need to transfer) and it does work with encrypted phone! First it asks for password for decrypting and then works fine. I'm saving my backup to SD card. I'm inserting SD card to Z5 and trying to restore with same data but... BnR app can't see saved data on SD card!

I made some researches on content of backups and I see they using different formats for backups. Different files structure, different files contents and different metadata format.

Xseries :: Can't Restore Text Messages From Backup

Jan 3, 2012

I did a backup of Nokia x6 (FW 40.X latest) on Nokia PC suite and Nokia suite. I then did a hard reset of my phone and now I'm unable to restore text messages from backup file. In fact not just the new ones but none of the backup files are getting restored. I do a backup every 2 weeks and even the older files don't seem to work. Rest of the data got restored absolutely fine. Only have a problem with test messages.

I nearly have 7000 sms across inbox and my folders. too much data lose ( or may be too much to restore? ).

List of Nokia phones I've used: 3310, 3315, 3200, 6600,3250, N73 ME, N95 8GB, 5800 XpressMusic and Nokia X6 16 GB (currently using this).

**When I tried to back up my messages from 7610 PC Suite warns me that these messages cannot be restored to another model.

IPhone :: Restore A Backup But NOT The Most Recent One In ITunes?

May 3, 2012

I just deleted an iMessage thread on accident. I went to plug my phone in to restore from a backup I did last night, but of course it automatically synced as soon as I plugged it in, and now it wants to restore from the backup it just made (in which the messages have already been deleted). Is there a way to select a backup point inm the past that is not the most recent one? I am not using iCloud (yet).

Xperia X10 Mini/pro :: Backup And Restore Did Not Restore Contacts Completely

Oct 28, 2010

I had faced this issue when i last updated my phone when the 2.1 had come out.. I installed the latest Backup and Restore application as recomended by the SE update site.. Then backed up my files onto an already existing backup (which i think has corrupted the backup), hence overwriting the file.. After that i upgraded to 2.1 and restored my files, which failed because the contacts were not successfully imported (even though the Backup and Restore app said that the import was succesful.)

i was asked to repair the firmware using PC companion and hence want to backup succesfully without any problems. I cant risk loosing my contacts again. And i want to know from others in this forum if they have faced this issue on normal backup (not overwritten on an existing backup). [URL]
