How to fix my iPhone without restoring it?
I went to settings on my iPhone and installed the iOS 6 software. After the installation it restarted. The apple logo appeared and it stayed like that for a really long time. I've tried turning it off and putting it back on but no luck. The only thing I can do is to restore it but if I do everything that I didn't back up will be gone. My last backup was like 3 months ago. I never connect it on the computer only when I need to backup. What can I do?
Added (1). If I go to the apple store, will they be able to fix it? Can they make my iPhone back to normal? I didn't turn on photo steam so my photos are not backup.
If all your purchases were from apple or itunes, then you can download them again from the itunes store.
There's a big chance that you have icloud streaming on. Check your setting and pictures on icloud.com. If streaming was on, all your pictures are there.
okay, if you answer yes to both these, then you are clear for a restore.
