Why don't i have my pictures or app data on my iphone after restoring?
I have an iphone 5 and upgraded to ios 7.0.4. Expecting it to crash anyway I backed it up on itunes. After crashing and updating to the new ios update, I attempted to restore. Every time i restore the iphone through itunes the phone starts up and asks to start the phone new or to restore. So basically its either an endless loop of restoring or I start new. When I start new the only thing my phone has is the apps and music. NO APP DATA OR PICTURES OR TEXT MESSAGES! I remember restoring my phone a couple times this way and it worked but somehow its not working this time.Am I doing something wrong? Would appreciate help, thanks!
Remove pictures and other information from the phone to a computer or to another phone
then restoring
get the information from other phone to your phone
Stop and READ…
On the summary page it says "Restore to factory settings". This wipes all your stuff off the phone. That is where you are now.
Next step:
You need to set up the phone as new "from a previous backup"
This puts all your information back on the phone.
- Why is my iPhone charging me extra for data when I don't even have it on? I'm going to take my phone to Apple to see about this later, but I was thinking about asking this on here first. For the past couple of months, my iPhone 4 has been charging me data overages when I don't even have it on. It has been a huge problem lately, and I'm on AT&T on a 1 GB plan, and I have no idea what is happening. A friend of mine has expirenced the same problem, also. Do you know any ways to fix this?
- If I have Wi-Fi on my iphone and I have cellular data on do I get charges for data? For whatever crazy reason my iphone 4 won't send pics unless its over Wi-Fi through an iMessage to another iPhone or I have cellular data on to send it to a not iPhone phone. I just turned the cellular data even though I had Wi-Fi so I could send a pic. Did this cost me data?
- If i don't have a data plan, but have an iphone, what can i do on it? My dad got an iphone 4s, and wants to give me his old 3g.hes going to give it to me, but i can't afford the data plan. So if i have an iphone, and no data plan, would i be able to go on the app store, buy music, etc?
- If i don't backup my iphone right after restoring it what will happen? I just restored my iphone and i don't want to back it up right now. If i don't back it up right now will i not be able to back it up at all? Like will it still give me the opportunity to back it up if I choose to use it as a new phone? I want to use it as a new phone right now but back it up later but i don't want it to erase everything if i use it as a new phone now.
