IPhone :: Updated To 3GS To IOS 5.1 - Stuff Missing?
Apr 1, 2012
I updated my husband's iPhone 3GS to iOS 5.1 just now, and a huge chunk of his photos are missing. I believe the last time this phone was synced with any library, it was his library on his old computer. So, of our two computers, neither would have been a good choice for updating, since neither could be considered the original one it was synced with. My question is this: when iTunes updates software, it backs up and restores first, so why were all of his photos not backed up and restored during this process? He had about 500-600 photos and now he only has 241. Also his playlists are gone, music was gone, a bunch of stuff is now gone. I had to put some of it back manually. Needless to say I am in a bunch of trouble for this - I have been bugging him for months to update his phone so we could iMessage each other.
I installed the latest software update on my phone last night...only to discover that after I did I lost all my text messages from the past 3 months, along with all notes I had (which contained my mileage for work), and any pictures I have taken. I also lost all apps that I bought/downloaded in the last 3 months. I am now basically out money also for any apps that were purchased. How do I get all of that back? (the notes and pictures are the most important
I just updated to iOS 5.1.1 on my iPhone 4. Tried to put in ringtones or "tones" as I guess its now listed, and was given the message: "Are you sure you want to sync tones? All existing songs, movies and TV shows on the iPhone "HP_Owner's iPhone" will be removed."
I couldn't see any other way to get ringtones, so I tried it anyway. The message wasn't lying. I immediately gained a lot of capacity back on the capacity bar from songs, etc. I somehow got out of it and the capacity returned. Do I need to go through it all again and figure out how to install an older iOS?
Updated and backed up - everything else is as it should be on my phone but the contacts are just gone. I can't even figure out where to look for them on the computer either - or did they take off to the cloud never to be seen again? Don't know what to do, this is my only contact list!
I recently updated to belle on my c7 and im missing large analogue clock widget also there is no weather widget or different sized music widget, is there anywhere i can download these widgets cause i cant find them on the nokia store either, so much for 5 different sized widget options ha
I recently updated my n96 to version 30 software. On the software updates site it says this version has an integrated facbook application. Yet i cannot find this on my phone. Is the same app available to download from ovi or is it just like the ones that were available before that were just like a bookmark on my phone. I dont pretend to know everything like some people on these boards i am just trying to help. Its not all about the kudos.
I did the app world update and now my applications are not showing. I do see them still installed when I connect to the PC Desktop Software. How do I access my programs now?
Updated my 5800 software which sorted out the problem with my maps but my full QWERTY has gone. I miss it! I'm left with the other options including the mini QWERTY but it's not the same. Tried turning off and taking the battery out but it didn't work. Any ideas? Do I need to restore factory settings I want my QWERTY back!

I had a text conversation, took a number of pictures and videos, etc. Then I come home, sync it with iTunes and with my backup, and all of that stuff vanishes. How can they give you an activated, functioning phone before you walk out of the store, but not tell you that you have No way of saving anything you do on it pre-iTunes sync?
I deleted something from my iPhone and wanted to restore it to the last back up from icloud. I wiped the phone, but when I restored it back, I had no contacts, notes, imessages, etc. Everything was gone.

I recently have been having problems with my iPhone 4 so i restored it. Before i restored it i backed it up with iClound. Now i don't know how to access the iCloud backup to put all my old stuff onto my iPhone. Can someone help me please??
I want to sell my iPhone 4 and need to do a factory restore to remove all my stuff. When I connect it to iTunes and click on the 'restore' button it insists on updating the software to 7.1.2 first, which the phone already has. At the end of the update I get a message saying that the update was unsuccessful as it was corrupted. But I don't need the software anyway!! Is there a way of by-passing this update so that I can just do the restore? I just want to clear off my stuff so that I can sell the phone.

Last week I synchronized my Iphone with the itunes, and instead of downloading the photos to my computer it uploaded everything from the computer to the iphone. Now my iphone's sotrage is full and I dont know how to reverse this action.
The computer I normally use for my iphone is down and I need to get it fixed. Meanwhile, I would like to update my phone and I am afraid I may lose my music, apps, etc. Is there anyway to download my music, apps and stuff to a new computer?

I just received a new phone and I backed up my iphone this morning on my phone not my computer. When I came home to back up my phone from my icloud it will only upload the new one that I backed up instead of the old one I did that morning. That is my first problem. Now I need to know how I can edit the things in my icloud so I can delete space and take stuff out of it. I don't want to buy more space so how can I delete some things in my icloud?
I have got all my music, photos and apps sorted but how can I save my playlists, contacts, sms and notes? I am backed up to iCloud but if I sync my phone with iTunes will I lose all my data? I haven't dared click sync as I don't want to lose what I have on my phone.
Last night around 12:00 I had fallen asleep watching TV. Got up around 1:30 am to go to bed. Looked at phone and it was downloading something but can't remember what it was. All I remember was it seemed like it may have been some kind of system type of download. Automatic download is turned off and whatever it downloaded did not install, it just downloaded and disappeared. It's not in download folder. So is there a way to find out what it was?
