Nokia Lumia :: Restoring A Backup From A N8 To New 800?
Jul 17, 2012
I got my new Lumia 800 delivered this morning and my old N8 taken away as it was broken - so I no longer have the old phone but need to restore my contacts, messages, calendar and music - desperately, too. I have the backup file that I took yesterday from my N8, but Lumia 800 is not compatible with Nokia Suite so I have installed Zune. This doesn't work either, as I cannot find the option to restore a backup - so I don't know what to do?

I have some old MS Live account backups from older Lumia devices that are dated back to 2012. I saw them when I first restored from back-up today. How do I delete these from MS servers? I tried going to OneDrive about 2 months ago and deleting them there, but they are still reappearing somehow on new phone restore.

I have bought a new 5800 XM recently instead of my old 7610. I tried hard I think but unable to find a way to transfer my text messages from my 7610 to 5800 XM. How come I can manage this or is not there a way to achieve this issue.
* I own the final version of Nokia PC Suite and Ovi Suite by today. they even cannot install the Nokia PC Suite Support software into my old 7610.
**When I tried to back up my messages from 7610 PC Suite warns me that these messages cannot be restored to another model.

Cant understand why the backup to PC of vital Lumia phone information such as contacts, calendar and messges can not be easily and quickly achieved as with the Nokia suite and N8. I believe it is synced automatically to Sky-drive but I cannot find evidence of this. I would like to have control of this data for easy retrieval and stored on my PC. Windows phone software on my PC is sub standard in comparison with Nokia Suite. It is clunky, contacts cannot be backed up, photos have no picture reference when transferred and the overall Windows Phone software on my PC is second rate in contrast to the Windows Phone 8 phone experience. Can anyone enlighten me on how I can easily copy my contacts to PC. No problem getting contacts into the phone. Just unclear on how to get a copy of them out.

Will it be possible to sync my new iP4 from a 3.1.3 backup of a 3G? Or must I install iOS4 on the 3G in order to restore from backup once the iP4 arrives?I am hesitant to install iOS4 on my 3G because of the conflicting reports it slows the phone way down.

Just curious - when I get the new iPhone 4, will I be able to restore from one of my 3GS backups in order to get all my settings/saved app data, all that good stuff?Or do you have to set up iPhone 4's as New?

My iPhone was having problems with syncing music from iTunes so I restored it to factory settings, then attempted to restore from one of my previous backups; all seemed to be going fine, the Restore in Progress screen came up on my iPhone, followed by the Apple logo and beneath it a loading bar. About 15 hours later and there's been no movement in the loading bar, it's still empty, so I'm assuming it must be frozen.

So I lost my iphone sunday and am getting one from a friend tonight.My 3G was extremely customized with lockinfo and categories and categoriesSB, etc.If I jailbreak this new 3G, and restore from that backup, what exactly will happen if I have nothing installed?I know its best to start completely fresh after a JB, but I have some savedata I dont want to lose for the 2nd time.Would all my apps go back on the phone but in completely random places?Would my backup install mobilesubstrate addons without me doing it manually in Cydia?

So like, I have iTunes on this computer that has the perfect back up for my iPhone, but it can't connect to any internets so I can't restore it. Is there a way for me to get that backup file and stuff and put it on a flash drive so I can put it on a different computer that can connect to internet and back up my phone?
And yeah I tried using these file destinations;
On Windows XP: Documents and Settings(username)Application DataApple ComputerMobileSyncBackup
On Windows Vista and Windows 7: Users(username)AppDataRoamingApple ComputerMobileSyncBackup
But I had no luck in finding anything after (username). Like, I don't have 'Application Data' or 'AppData' as a folder on my computer.
Any help would be a lifesaver, seriously.

my samsung galaxy s2 last weekend (big mistake). Unable to find so far, apps are out of the question as it was lost in Dublin so no data connece early but does anyone know if it would be possible to restore a pre-ICS backup to a Samsung Galaxy S3?Reason im asking is that I have a year to run on my contract, no phone insurance other than household so I think my best option is to buy out my contract.So rather that be stuck on a Samsung Galaxy S2 for two years I could get a Samsung Galaxy S3

lost my old iphone 4s and got a warranty replacement iphone 4s. However when I tried to restore a recent backup I made to the cloud it said that I could not do it because the old backup was on an older ios and the new phone was on a new ios. Is there anyway that I can somehow restore this backup? Also I don't have any backups to itunes.

Before I activated my new iphone 6+ today ... I backed up my old iphone 4 into my computer through itunes.Â
After activation I went into itunes to restore today's backup into the new phone and the backup from today vanished.Â
Part of the problem may be that when I plugged in the new phone itunes asked me to update their software in my computer.Â
Is there anyway to retrieve my backup from today?Â

I seem to have lost my data in iphone 5s. It is asking to either setup as a new phone or restore from itunes backup. The last back i did was today afternoon when everything was intact. But once the iphone was connected to itunes, it automatically started backing up the device with no data (as it was wiped out), now when I attempt to restore from itunes backup all it does is restore from the latest backup.This afternoon's successful backup does not seem to get listed in the list of backups. The reason for doing backup is to restore when in need.

I have backed up my Torch using the BlackBerry Protect application, then I restored it at a later date. I can view my contacts but not my SMS, MMS or emails? I just get a little green icon on them with the date but I can not see any information.
