I got my iPhone this christmas and never registered on my computer until today.I have an iPod touch which is registered to the same computer which I keep all my music on.When I was setting up my phone on my computer when I lost EVERYTHING! I hit restore from Katie Hunt's Ipod touch, which I thought would only transfer my music over.But it transfered all the stuff on my iPod to my phone and earsed everything in my phone. I lost all my contacts, pictures, videos, notes, and ringtones. I really want all of my stuff back before I restored it.I called apple and they wanted to charge me 60 dollars since my free 90 days of tech support were up.The man told me to search the internet, for my problem because he said this has happened before but wouldnt tell me how to fix it.

My phone has crashed, but I have backed up the information on the with Black Berry Protect. When I get a new phone how can I retrieve my information? This message is to RIM, wish you would make a bit sturdier phone without buying all these other accessories.
My provider was not able to. I had to get my phone switched out and I asked them to transfer all information from my old phone to my new phone. Well, to my surprise they returned my new phone to me and it did not have my contact information, my memo notes nor my text messages. They said this information was lost. (1) how this could have happened and (2) Is there anyway to capture this lost information. It is very important that I retrieve this information back..
Second enquiry of the day But I had to take my BB Curve into store yesterday where they downloaded new software, it certainly got it working again however I have lost all my data?I had saved text messages from someone that is evidence in a court hearing next week - is there anyway these can be recovered or are they lost in cyberspace forever??
I seem to have lost some contact information. Though many of my contacts are still intact, others no longer show a secondary phone number I once entered, or some contacts seem to have disappeared completely.The strange thing is, when I dial one of the "lost" numbers manually, the contact's name does show up! But I can't find it in the list of contacts. I have already checked and unchecked the Business and Personal options in the filter menu, but that didn't do the trick.Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?note: this problem is not my own - I'm asking for a friend of mine
Since I switched phones from a 9000 to a 9700 I tried doing this through desktop manager. But everything got erased from the 9000 (contacts, everything!) and nothing got uploaded to my 9700. Is there any way I can find the lost info??? I am pretty sure i never did a back up from the 9000. I cant believe I lost all my contacts!!!
I updated the firmware of my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5.1 yesterday. After the update, I noticed that I have lost all of my contacts on the phone, so I plugged it back in to the computer and went with "Restore from backup", which was dated just a few hours prior to updating the firmware.
After it finished restoring, my contacts were all back but half of my apps are missing. I tried redownloading from the App Store as well as syncing from the computer, but the data (game saves, etc) are still missing. How do I get them back?

I recently had my new iPhone 3GS sent away and replaced for a new phone as parts went faulty in the previous. I have now had this phone for 2months and it wasn't until today I decided to put on music on my new iPhone. However, when I plugged my iPhone into the computer it automatically rebooted old data from the previous phone, into my new one... In the process I lost all new contacts an family holiday photos I have taken on this phone.Is it possible to get the data back and how would I do so?
I just bought this phone tnight and when I got home I discovered that none of the pics, phone number, text messages or voice mails are mine. I have another person's information. How can I fix this? The store is closed.
I need to upgrade my late husband's iPhone iOS because some apps are no longer working with the iOS version.The last upgrade was done in 2010, to v4.1. My problem is that I do not want to risk losing anything on this iPhone, for sentimental reasons.I have transferred purchased items through iTunes to keep all the apps.Can someone please walk me through the steps required to make sure I lose no information presently on the iPhone when I upgrade? I want to make sure the text messages, photos (camera roll and albums) and contacts are intact.Calendar is not necessary. I'm usually pretty good at figuring things out but I'm really paranoid about losing anything this time.
While running a normal back-up and update on iTunes, I revieved an error message saying that my iPhone needed to be restored. All my iPhone information in ITunes is completely gone. My phone will not turn on and ITunes is giving me a message saying that my phone is in recovery mode. How can this happen while doing a simple back-up?
Over the last couple of months there have been some issues with 3rd party app developers uploading contact information, e.g.[URL]I've been a bit nervous about using my address book since then - as well as for contacts I use it as a database for all sorts of information,some of it highly confidential.are contacts now safe to use, or can 3rd party developers still get full access without my consent?
My old iPhone 4s got stolen but was backed up by iTunes. I bought a new one today and when it asked me if I wanted to restore information from another iPhone onto my new one, I accidently restored my brothers iPhone onto mine rather than mine. I was wondering if there is a way to undo this restoration and go back so that I can restore all of my old information onto my new phone instead of his?
My girlfriend thought her iPhone was stolen today, so she did a remote wipe so no one could steal her information off her phone. It ended up that she had just left her iPhone someplace and was able to get it back. Now that she's got the phone back, she's trying to restore it, but it looks like the iPhone was set to back up to iCloud, but never did because of an error (she had no idea she was getting), and it seems that since it was set up to back up to iCloud, the last iTunes backup was from before she got her iPhone 4s (so it's 5 months old). Is there anyway to pull information off of an iPhone after it's been remote wiped? I have a program for pulling information off of digital camera memory cards that have been formatted. Is there something like this for iPhones?

I am very upset.I think I have lost my last year's worth of information and images. Did I lose my information when I did my "revert" to 6/24/2011 last update? I thought I was syncing. Is there some way to revert
