lost EVERYTHING was backed up iphone 3G

My home button broke on my iphone, so had to take it in to get fixed.Well, they couldnt fix it, so they gave me a new one.I had everything backed up on iTunes just in case.I come home, plug it in & it gets about 75% done & freezes!I exited iTunes in hopes of starting over.. Well, everything was lost & it said my backup was complete.I had multiple games & apps on my phone that I paid for and/or worked my butt off to do stuff on & Ive just lost everything.Is there anyway to find all my backup sessions so I can fix this?

Help Needed-safari Text Fields Not Working iphone 3G

Hi,I was wondering if anyone could help, today I downloaded the Sky TV app, got the code etc and put in all my card/address details (via the address search). There was an error saying the site was unavailable at the moment and to try again later.Anyway, now I try and re-submit the form, it automatically remembers my card details and these are shown locked in at the top of the registration page, however there is now the address fields that need to be filled in (no option to do post code search as before). The fields are not responding at all so I can neither type (keyboard is not appearing) nor paste into them.Does anyone have any idea on how to get them to respond as its drving me mad.Your help would be very much appreciated.CheersMessage was edited by: pds1985 Unsure

Problem now fixed on mine iphone

I had the same problem. Accellorometer worked fine in apps such as Topple, Dirtbike and IHandy but not with safari, Photos, Ipod etc. I did a reset and a factory restore and this didn't fix them so I spoke to Apple support and they said as my phone was 2 months out of warranty they would charge me £150 to fix (look at) it. I didn't bother.My phone was like this for 2 days. Today I've had it in my pocket on its side for most of the day and I've just gone to use the Facebook app and it is working fine again across all native and 3rd party applications. Strange! I'm not sure what's fixed it but I think it may be a case of perseverance and prayers in order to fix it, or just having it on its side in a warm place (e.g. your pocket). Hope it this gives some hope to people.iphone 3G with 3.1.2

All Apps suddenly did not work iphone 3G

When I turned on my iphone this morning none of the Apps worked. I turned off the phone, did a reset and still no Apps worked. The rest of the phone, safari, mail, built in apps such as calendar, stocks and Weather were all fine. After I did a sync with my apps on the computer everything was OK. However, if I was traveling and away from my computer, I would have been stuck. Im scheduled to go on a two week overseas trip at the end of the month and would hate for this to happen again. Any suggestions? IMac 2007 24

Bottom row of iphone not responding to touch 3G

Hi Everyone,After a error on my part my Girlfriends iphone 3G took a light fall from not much height but happened to completely destroy the screen and LCD. Anyway after a conversation with Apple and checking the web i decided to get it fixed at a iphone repair place who charge £109 for a new Screen and LCD. Next day everything was back to normal very happy.However now the bottom section of the touch screen has stopped working, along the bottom row where the Phone, Email and safari apps sit, however it is alive at the very top of the unlock slider which is lucky.I was wondering could this be a software bug (Am about to try a restore as manual restart didnt sort it) or maybe just a bad repair job (Gonna call place in the morning).Have seen on other forums that people have just booked in the Genius bar and had a straight swap for their phone very easily, wondering if i could get away with that as i cant tell the phone has been repaired but then i aint no expert.Would appreciate some advice as to what best option would be, phone is only 6 months old.Cheers Acer Windows Vista

Cracked iphone 3G

Hey guys,I purchased an iphone 3G last summer (August 2008) and recently discovered a crack in the back cover. It extends from the charger port upwards (its about 2 cm). What should I do? It is no longer under warranty so taking it to Genius Bar would not be helpful. Is it a lost cause?Thanks

iphone-No Service-PLEASE HELP 3G

Im a UK-based O2-registered iphone user. I have been in Australia for 3 weeks and my iphone has worked fine in all of the 5 major cities. Yesterday I spent the day in an area with no service. After returning to the city, my iphone still says no service in the top left corner. I have tried every fix suggested on the net - reboot iphone / disable 3G / direct reboot iphone / reset network settings / remove & re-insert sim - all to no avail. When I go to Settings > Carrier, the phone is able to detect all 3 Australian networks that my phone could connect to, but when I select any of them it tries to connect for approx 30 seconds and then displays Network lost - your selected cellular network is no longer available. You can choose a different network in settings. Does anyone have a suggestion? I would be massively grateful for any advice - I could not have lost the use of my phone at a worse time Macbookpro Mac OS X (10.5.8)

After computer crash SYNC iphone WITH iTUNES 3G

Hi,recently my computer crashed... to be more precise, the 2 hard disks crashed with all the informations and backups ( I use time machine ). I lost everything...But, in my iphone, I have a lot of files like, photos, music, apps and when I connect it to the computer and to itunes , the regular message saying that the iphone is connected to another iTunes library, appears, proposing to erase the iphone and sync it with the present iTunes library ( that is empty because I formatted the new disk ). Pretty nice but, I already lost to much informations and I wouldnt like to see the rest disappear and of course impossible to connect to the base iTunes library because it doesnt exist anymore!If anyone has a good idea to solve this, It would be very great.<I just want to recover the info of the iphone and connect it to the new iTunes without loosing anything.Thanks a lot Léo MAC Pro Mac OS X (10.5.7) 2x Quad CORE intel-xeon 3Ghz

iphone with fw 3.1.2 stops transmitting data. 3G

The following is a copy of an email sent to tech support. Has anyone in the forums found a solution to this yet, or am I to regret installing fw 3.1.2?Just like folks in the forum are complaining, I too have a very irritating problem with this firmware. After some time of use, the phone will NOT transfer data. Items such as email, text messaging, and safari simply will not transfer any data. I click on any link to browse the web and it just sits there. It takes a restart of the phone to get it all working again. I am livid, and that is being kind. On the flip side, the sluggishness that I had with 3.0.1 is gone. The phone just behaves better. Much more responsive. The engineers are on the right track, but they keep derailing along the way.Im afraid the issue mentioned in this message is much more than I am willing to put up with. I will NOT restart my phone fifty times a day just to jeep it working. Somebody from Apple better come up with a way to make me real happy, real quick. Domonique, this is in your hands. You will find clues in the forums. Pay attention to these people.Call me soon? I need to hear some good news before I lose it with Apple and this phone.Dwayne  Dell XPS 420 Windows Vista

Battery Drain Issue-Unexplained Usage iphone 3G

Not sure how to start this, but last week my phone was working fine, I use the internet and email for work quite often so usually get a day and a half on a full charge. Just this past weekend I traveled out of town and my phone was low so I charged it up to full and the next morning it was at 20% low battery. I hadnt used it for email, calling, texting or any app for that matter.I started checking into the problem browsing these forums and trying out different things I did a full reset holding down power button and square button until the apple logo came back up and recharged the phone. Started monitoring the usage and standby time after the full charge and saw no usage and the standby ticked away. Was at about 4 hours standby and still reading full charge so I jumped on the web to drain the battery a little just to make sure it wasnt bugged reading full even though it was depleted some and got it down to 95% and went to bed. Next morning 20% battery again checked the usage and it had close to 4 hours usage and 8 hours standby.So I thought possibly safari hadnt closed out and ran in the background all night so I did another hard reset and charged it up again. Now the standby time and usage time both run up even though Im not using the phone for anything but looking at the battery statistics. Does anyone have any idea why the usage time would still be going up when Im not doing anything on the phone? Im at the point where Im about to restore it and start from scratch but wanted to check before hand.Thanks in advance for any help and sorry for the long post, not really sure the best way to explain it but thought Id give it a shot. iphone 3G iphone OS 3.1.2

Stolen laptop, old iphone, new XP laptop, & now new 3GS

Ok, my wife got an iphone a couple of years ago and loves it. My daughter hooked it up with my wife's Sony Viao which subsequently was stolen. I bought her a new PC with Windows XP Pro but have yet to sync to it because I heard that she would lose everything when she plugged it in. I have never used ITunes and am monumentally unfamiliar with it. Now, to top it all off, I bought my wife a gift card for a new iphone 3GS (the white one, not sure if that matters). So, if some kind (and experienced) person will help. I would appreciate a step-by-step approach to how to proceed. I have ITunes installed, I have Outlook Express set-up, I just don't know how to get her photos, music, contacts, email, safari Bookmarks, apps, etc. onto the new computer and then onto the new phone. So, here we are, waiting to go to the Apple store but frozen in ignorance afraid that we are going to do the wrong thing. I tried to explain all this to the person at the Apple store but walked away with no clear idea what they were saying. Thanks in advance for any help. Just pretend you are talking to your old Grandpa who doesn't understand much tech speech.

Bad quality and lack of response iphone 3G

After purchasing iphone & MacBook Pro, it frustrated my girlfriend and me. We already wrote a complaint letter to Apple Computer Limited twice. First time, they passed to their Asia Pacific centre for handling my complaint, but it didnt work out after 3 or 4 months telephone communication; then we send the second complaint letter to Apple at September, but until now, we are still awaiting their response. I bought iphone 3G at 3(HK) around Aug 2008, after few months problems came up, then we sent the first complaint letter to Apple. Then they requested me to take the phone to repairing centre in HK to exchange a new one. Actually, I exchanged it twice within 2 weeks, just because they got so many problems. Some of the problems are the battery quickly runs out without getting any call; data lost when the safari program froze for no reason; just can hear the phone ringing, cant pick up any call, need force to shut down the phone; the phone came overheat after using safari for few minutes; etc... Although those two complaint letters, we also told them the MacBook Pro got some problem, so we wanted their help, they just kept ignoring our request. The MacBook Pro is always overheating within 15 minutes and the battery runs out very quickly; the mouse control on the MacBook Pro itself has lost its functionality. Please help me follow this request and complaint ASAP and Im already too frustrated to deal with the Apple people and any dealing over the phone as it costs all parties therefore any contact to me should be in black and white to my email. As it has already been the second time that Ive purchased and used Apple laptop computer, Im concerned with the quality thereby I just want my money back for the MacBook Pro and extend my Iphones warranty as the contract with 3G(HK) does not cover. iphone 3G iphone OS 3.1.2 MacBook Pro 15"

Music Gone On iTunes iphone 3G

So, Im very dependant on my iphone for music just as all of its other features, and I have a pretty collective library of around 700 songs stored on my iphone.All of these songs were being synced from my laptop/iTunes, but recently my hard drive crapped out. When I took it in to be repaired I tried my hardest to save the music files on my computer but I couldnt.So, seeing as Ive lost all my songs and I can no longer sync my iphone with iTunes without losing all of my music, I was wondering if there was ANY way to somehow transfer the songs from my iphone back to my computer without losing all of my music (or any alternative method).Thanks for all the help!Message was edited by: Narc0tics Compaq Windows XP Its garbage.

Microphone turning on for no apparent reason iphone 3G

I upgraded from 3.0 to 3.1 to 3.1.2 all in a very short period of time, so this problem might be for people with those OS as well however Im currently using 3.1.2 and I am noticing that when Im on safari, or any app that happens to have a feature where you tap to enter information (such as the address bar/search feature), within about 3 seconds of taping and having the address bar/search feature/whatever come up, the clicking noise will happen (if it happens, since it doesnt always); when I put my ear to the microphone, it is obvious that the microphone is turning on (hence the soft clicking noise) and I can hear its static when my ear is up to it. I think this also might be happening at random other times as well, but its very obvious that it happens most often when I am surfing around on safari because I use it frequently and because if Im in a quite room often typing in a URL or search, the clicking noise can be a constant annoyance. I suppose it is also worth mentioning that I recently (for an unrelated matter) went into General, Rest, and Reset All Settings.Does anyone else have this problem, or have any suggestions? iphone OS 3.1.2

lost my iphone Can somebody explain why I have to pay more to replace it

I bought a 3GS in June. I wasnt eligible for the $299 (32GB) upgrade price so I paid the $499 early upgrade fee.Yesterday it was lost. Long story but it was just misplaced/lost. My fault, not blaming anybody.Today I checked the Apple iphone website (Buy iphone link) and input my number and info to check what my upgrade uptions are.It says they can only offer me:8 GB iphone 3G - $49916 GB iphone 3GS - $59932 GB iphone 3GS - $699WHAT?! Please explain to me why i must pay an EXTRA $200 to replace a phone I paid $499 for the first time around.Why cant AT&T/Apple just take $500 in their pocket and keep a customer? Why do I have to pay $700 to replace it??Any way to argue this or get around it? Thanks so much Windows None

All contacts lost iphone 3G

I recently, about a week ago, upgraded my wifes iphone 3G to 3.1.2. Since the upgrade to 3.1 she complained about poor battery life and other weird behaviour. I then heard that 3.1.2 took care of these symptoms but she noticed yesterday that her phone list was showing only numbers, no names, then so too did her favourites which prompted her to check contact and this was empty.I recommended the hard reboot and despite doing this and simply shutting the phone down and restarting twice the contact list shows No Contacts and the phone list also only show numbers, no names with favourites.I do not simply want to sync again with the computer yet since she has added some new contacts and made some changes since that last sync and would like to recover them if at all possible. Any suggestions or is she just going to have to do without those changes she made? C2D MBP Mac OS X (10.6.1) Glossy screen, 2GB, Samsung SSD HDD

Battery gauge iphone 3G

Does anyone know what the battery gauge is measuring? Does it calculate what the battery usage should have been based on usage or measure the actual physical battery power remaining?I have been surprised sometimes about how little or how much power it shows has been used.

I just tried connecting it to my logitech pure-fi express and I now get a warning that the accessory isnt built to support the iphone (it is) and the iphone is no longer charging from it (it should).

iphone 3G running 3.1.2 still having intermittent loss of data services

My wifes 3G is randomly indicating that she has no internet connection, so she cant get data and/or send SMS messages. Even though shes in a spot at work where it used to always work fine.Her 3G has the latest 3.1.2 firmware and has gotten all of the updates from 2.0 to 2.1, all the way up to 3.1.2. I think people that have the earlier 3Gs and have gone through multiple updates seem to be having the most issues.Let me know if anyone know of some way (ANY WAY) to fix this. Again, she has a 3G running 3.1.2 and has applied updates from 2.0 on up to 3.1.2...with instability issues showing up first with 3.0.I personally have a 3G (just as old) and have gone through almost the same updates, BUT...I didnt update from 3.01 to 3.1. My 3G began getting squirley (safari crashing with muliple tabs open and general lag doing text entries...stuff like that) after I updated to 3.01 (or was it 3.0?), so I held off doing any more updates until the coast seemed clear to do one. Im glad I held off as the 3.1 updates made matters worse for my wife and many others. 3.1.2 still has issues. Im sure the phone hardware is fine, but installing multiple updates over each other seems to create instabilities. iMac Mac OS X (10.5.8) Two 3G owners frustrated at instablities....hate to jump to Droid but it may come to that.

Google Home Page Shows Up Blank iphone 3G

When I try to pull up the Google home page ( www.google.com ) on my 3G/16GB iphone, it comes up with a blank white screen.

Battery Life-Not happy customer iphone 3G

I recently have been noticing that my battery does not last quite as long it once used too. I cannot survive an entire day without having to plug my phone in somewhere. It all started with one of the 3.* updates. I plugged my phone in this morning after it died out on me during the night. (Plugged in around 7:30AM). I left my house without taking my phone, leaving it plugged into the charger. I came home and disconnected it (7:30). I didnt use my phone at all and I received a text message at 9:30PM (A little over an hour ago). I have been having a conversation with the same person over the last hour in the form of text messaging. My phone just vibrated saying its at 20%.. Something is not right! Another thing I noticed is I randomly lose service. Im sitting at my laptop next to a window, meaning there should be no reason I lose service. And this is just recently started happening. iphone is barebone, no apps are installed. (Again lost service, searching.....)Notifications are off, wifi is off, bluetooth is off, location services are off, brightness is on the lowest settingthere is one email account but it is setup as fetch, so that isnt the problem (AGAIN lost SERVICE!!!, then it jumps back to 5 bars, CLEAR SKIES!!!)help me please !!i rarely need to access the internet.. and i make a 2-3 phonecalls daily, and send/receive about 500 texts.Message was edited by: PiotrMir iphone OS 3.1.2

Smart Playlists Not Syncing Correct CONTENT on iphone 3G

Hi, I apologize about the length of this description, but I believe all or most of it may be relevant.I have been having trouble synchronizing ANY of my smart playlists. I first noticed it in the playlists I had created which entailed Most Recently Added or Most Recently Played options. Now I realize that all of my smart playlists are no longer syncing their play order (some too big to determine if songs arent making it into some of them). For instance, here is the criteria for a playlist I created just to demonstrate this problem (this is a brand new playlist just I made and synced with my iphone):Title: Recently Played 5Criteria: Rating is in the range 3 stars and 5 startsChecked Boxes-(X)Limit to 5 items selected by most recently played(X)Match Only Checked Songs(X)Live UpdatingPlaylist as it appears in iTunes:Summer, Man by Taking Back SundaySink Into Me by Taking Back SundayNew Again by Taking Back SundayError: Operator by Taking Back SundaySwing by Taking Back SundayPlaylist as it appears on my iphone:Them Bones by Alice In ChainsHands in the Sky (Big Shot) by Straylight RunLead Said (And A Paper Anchor) by Atreyu... etcThese playlist CLEARLY do not match and it drives me crazy because these types of playlists are what I generally listen to. Im running iTunes 9.0.1.8 on Windows 7 OS (Dell Inspiron 6400), and OS 3.1.2 on an iphone 3G. I just recently consolidated my library. I had a collection of over 7000 songs on my external hard drive backed up, and kept about 4000 of them on my computer stored in iTunes (i.e. only the 4000 songs were present in my iTunes library, originating from my laptop hard drive--NOT EXTERNAL). Upon switching to Windows 7, I wanted to have ALL my music on my laptop hard drive and thus copied and re-added all of the music (all 7000). I lost all my track info (ratings, plays, last played date, date added, etc) in this process until I opened the iTunes library file with iTunes(had backed up from before new OS installation) and, voila, all my playlists and track info was restored. I had to do some cleaning up of duplicate files, but nothing major.I found this thread from Sept. 2008 which seemed to be in regards to the exact same problem under almost the exact same situation: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8066846#8066846. Unfortunately, its unanswered and archived. My iTunes did not crash, but I cleanly installed a new OS and had to start fresh.I cannot for the life of me figure this issue out. I thought about restoring my device and syncing it again (which I will try again tomorrow to see if I can manage any progress), but I want to retain my app info and text messages so I plan on restoring from a backup. If anyone has any solutions or even suggestions, Im open to try anything.Thanks! Inspiron 6400 Other OS Windows 7
