View 1 Replies View RelatedI upgraded my iPhone to iOS 5.1 recently, and reinstalled OS X this weekend, and now that I'm trying to back up the content of my iPhone on my Mac, I can't seem to find the music and photos (among other things) that are supposed to have been saved from the iPhone onto my computer. The iTunes library is empty. What should I do to actually back up the content of my iPhone. Has never happened before...

I've an iPhone 4s 64gb iOs 5.0.1 for 3 weeks now, but still can't sync it w/ iTunes at all, I've tried iTunes version 10.5.3.3 and version 10.6.1.7 but both of them stuck on backing up (step 2 of 6).
I'm using win7 64bit. Reseting the iPhone and reinstall iTunes doesn't help at all.
And when I plug the iPhone4s to the laptop the lockscreen slider (where it used to say 'slide to unlock') didn't change to 'slide to cancel sync' or something like that (if it should have been that way) but there's two arrow circling on the upper left of the screen tho.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI attempted to update my iphone 3 using itunes. I'm not certain but I believe I did a backup on my pc first. I am now unable to use the phone at all - the slide bar won't move and I have a camera icon next to the slide bar which is not responsive. I have tried to sync and even left the phone connected to the pc overnight. The phone is going flat within a couple of hours and won't stop beeping every few seconds and seems to be syncing all the time, even when disconnected from pc. I am fearful that I have lost all my contacts - nothing is working?

I want to restore my backup from my old 3g to my 4s, however I have been using my 4s for a couple of weeks now and wondered if I restored the back up from my 3g through itunes, would this wipe off any new data that's on my 4s? Or is there a way I can restore the data without wiping off any new stuff such as pictures etc?

Probably a stupid question but I am trying to restore my iPhone as the kids wiped it by entering PIN incorrectly. Last time I backed it up was on a different PC - thought i could restore from any PC with itunes, or does it have to be the PC it was backed up to?

My hard drive on my iMac crashed. I used it to sync and back-up my iPhone 4s 64GB. Since all those back-ups are gone, will I have to back-up my iPhone 4s to icloud now. Also, will backing up with icloud back it up the same as iTunes did on my iMac? I will have to purchase the $100.00 a year storage, but I guess it's worth it to save all the info on my iphone.

I have an Sprint iPhone 4 and a Macbook. I use a USB to Sync, charge and backup my phone. If I close the lid to my computer while the phone is plugged in to the USB port it locks up my computer. The screen goes black but I can sort of see stuff behind the black screen. I press the power button to turn it off but nothing happens (maybe I have not waited long enough) so I end up taking the battery out, pressing the power button, putting the battery back in and then powering my computer back on.
This just started happening about 2 weeks ago and nothing has changed with my phone or my computer. There is a guy on another message board who just started having the same problem. He has an iPhone 4S, Sprint, a Macbook pro but he has Snow Leopard and I am still using Leopard.
