Restored iphone and lost everything?

I got my iphone 5 about a month ago and i hadn't synched it to itunes until today. When i went into itunes it asked me if i wanted to start it as a new iphone or restore it to my old ipod touch and i clicked ipod touch cause i wanted my old pictures and music but it completely deleted everything off my phone and put the stuff from my ipod on it. I lost all my new pictures contacts and messages. Is there anyway i can get those back? I didn't hook up to icloud either.

As far as I know thrre is no way to get it back, I did roughly the same thing not long ago and I never got any of mystuff back, sorry.

Unfortunately, if you haven't done any preceding syncing procedures with iTunes or iCloud, then there's no way to restore the iPhone to a previous state to bring back files. IPhone isn't Mac OS, it doesn't have Time Machine.

Nope. If the stuff on your iPods doesn't match what iTunes has it just deletes everything. It's kinda sh*t ano. It's happened to me. Just don't let iTunes sync. Take it off the automatic sync device or something x

You should have turned on icloud and tapped backed just to make sure first, it only takes a minute to do that so you should have done it. You can also sign on to icloud online at http://www.icloud.com/...icloud.com and see what you have backed up, its pretty slick.

  • Restored Iphone and lost pictures? My mom just got a new iphone, and so she wanted me to sync her old iphone pictures on to the computer. I did, and when I went to sync those pictures on to her new new iphone, I restored it. Anyway, she had some pictures on the new Iphone and now they are gone and replaced with the old ones. How can I retrieve these? P. S. Icloud was off
  • Restored iPhone and lost everything? - 1 I plugged my iPhone into my laptop to put my music on it but instead of registering it as a new iPhone I restored it and now all of my stuff is lost and it basically looks like my iPod but I lost my messages and my contacts and is there any way to get it back?
  • Iphone 5 restored and lost everything? So I plugged my phone into a friends computer. All her stuff - pictures, contacts etc - are now on my phone and I have nothing that was mine! My phone has never been backed up on iTunes or iCloud but is there anyway I can get my pictures etc back?
  • If I restore everything to iCloud on my iphone, can I restore everything and get it all back? I have too many things on my iphone right now, and I was wondering if I can restore it and get everything back from ICloud
