Aargh!

I switched iphones today with a friend of mine. I made sure that I had backed up everything to my computer AND iCloud before doing the trade. Did it, everything set up fine. Restored through iTunes and then turned on. I still had my email, texts, call logs, contacts and notes. But all my apps and songs are gone. How do i get them back?

I inadvertently backed up my iPod Touch 3G which ended up being a blessing because it actually died due to water damage. When I get my new iP4 I want to restore from that iPod Touch backup because it has many apps I use for studying including the settings which I definitely need. Is there a way to restore just the apps? How would/could I restore at least the one app with data that I really need?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI finally updated my iPhone to 5.1. I waited so long because of the fiasco updating my iPod Touch when 5.0 first came out. I thought it worked, I was pleased Apple worked out the bugs. Lo and behold, all of my apps and folders disappeared before my eyes. No problem I thought, I did a back up. Restore from back up. Fifteen minutes later, it looks exactly the same. Isn't a backup supposed to be of everything on the system so that if something goes wrong, you just revert back to the back up and either try again or wait for the process to be fixed? Seriously, get your stuff together.

But I'm struggling to find a way to recover the music I had on my previous iPhone, given that I had backed it up and everything. What is the best alternative beside going over each song?

It was always working before until about a week ago when some of my songs stopped letting me play them and to day I thought that if I restored it might fix it but it made it worse now It is saying that I have no music available for download

I believe I need to perform a reset to the factory default and know I need to backup my iphone first. When restore the backup I would like to leave off the apps. Can you restore bit by bit and not automatically restore the apps ?

My iPhone was acting up so I backed it up and took it to the Apple Store. They promptly replaced it and told me not to restore it from the backup in iTunes. While I was certain I'd heard Apple/Mac's didn't get viruses, the Genius told me that whatever problem the iPhone had, may be embedded into the Contacts and restoring them may transfer the problem to my new phone. Sounds like a virus to me.
He said there's a way to retrieve the contacts from the PC without going through Itunes & if I do it this way, my virus program will filter out any "embedded problem." No, I did not backup my contacts to Outlook. I never needed them and just assumed they were being put there. HELP!! I no longer use a paper phone book--I had over 10 years of contacts in my iPhone and are somewhere on my PC. How can I get them on my new iPhone?
2nd question. How do I get all of my apps back, again, without restoring from prior backup? I tried to right click on my iPhone in iTunes and click restore purchases, but a funny thing happened...it transferred only one over??? I have at least 25 or 30.
I had an iPhone 3g in the summer, and I downloaded quite a few apps. I got an iphone as a secondary phone, and I would love to have those apps back without paying. I have a new iphone 3g, and unfortunately my last computer broke so I am running a new netbook. I have no backup of my apps!! Is there any way I can restore these old apps as they are already paid for?I was thinking by just logging in to itunes on my apple account it would work, but no apps are listed

I just restored a new iPhone from a backup of my old phone on iTunes. However, I don't find any of my personal data now on the phone. All my apps are installed, sure, but none of the following is:
photos
contacts
personal data associated with the apps
phone settings
email account details
Which, to me, entirely misses the point of a backup and makes it virtually worthless. Is this what an iPHone "backup" actually is, or did the restore not happen correct?

I had an app that I had wrote down passwords and added pictures to and when I update to 5.1.1 it put my phone in recovery mode so I had to restore it and after that I got my apps back but not the information on them like the pictures and passwords. Is there a way to get it back?

the Genius Bar restored my iPhone (battery problems from system software crashes) and has b0rked two apps that have save data from October thru today. One is a game (impossible to level, but not a fatal loss). The other is a financial app that has been tracking money for eight monthsr. I can restore my apps from a backup WITHOUT having to do a general backup restore... Can I cherry pick my apps from backup?

I have a 4S, IOS 7.1.1. I did a factory reset, after first backing it up, and now that I am trying to sync all apps from that last backup, it says it cannot sync because this computer is no longer authorized. So I authorize the computer as it prompts me too, then it says, this computer is already authorized. I try to sync again, it still says computer not authorized. It's been a continuous circle. I have done everything from de-authorizing and re-authorizing the computer, removing the SC Info folder and restarting the computer and authorizing the computer associated with all Apple IDs, basically everything I have found on this site and everything support was telling me to do.

What a crummy weekend for the Music apps to start crashing - Memorial Day weekend when I'm driving so much. Google Music keeps crashing as soon as I start navigation in Google Maps. I tried Amazon Prime Music too - same issue. So, I'm thinking it's the recently-updated Maps app that isn't multitasking well.

My nephew 'tested' it for me for a week or two before my parents brought it to me here in India. When I plugged it into my Mac for the first time it asked me if I wanted to restore. I did so and all settings and address book have come across. But the music and apps are not syncing. I guess it's still associated with a previous owners' iTunes (probably my nephew's). How do I overcome this?
OK so i plug my phone into the computer sync my music then about 10 min later i try to use a app then it crashes right away but my music is still there. PROBLEM: APPS DONT OPEN AFTER SYNCING MUSIC

I am using a 3G iPhone and just updated from system 3.? to 4.?. I am trying to restore the backup and iTunes keeps asking me to "Enter the password to unlock your iPhone backup. I don't know what password? I tried my MacBook Pro admin password but that doesn't work. I tried my apple ID but that doesn't work. I am afraid to put in to many tries. Why do I need and password to "unlock" the backup, and how can I resolve this so I can put all the apps and music back onto my phone!

After upgrading to the latest ios (from 4.3.3), when I hit sync in itunes, it says "waiting for sync to start," "preparing to sync" and "waiting for changes to be applied," while not actually syncing music or apps. It does sync photos, though, for some reason. I tried rebooting the computer, using a different wire, and using a different usb port.
