Q: iPhone 5: How to recover deleted photos?

Hello,

 

I recently got an iPhone 5 and been happily snapping away. However, the other day managed to delete a load of photos that didn't want to delete.

 

I'm travelling and don't have a computer or have made any backups, via iTunes and neither Photostream or anything like that.

 

I'd really like the photos back and wondering if there is a way of doing it? I'd put some in the app "Photo Vault" to try and keep some secure, but they're gone as well.

 

I've used SD card software to recover photos from SD cards before with some success, and was wondering if there's a similar thing for iPhone?

 

Thanks

iPhone 5, iOS 6.0.2

    Depends on the last time you did a sync / backup. If you had the photos and synced, deleted photos then did a restore from the most recent backup, they should be there again. If you don't, you can restore the photos using two methods, recover deleted photos from iPhone via iTunes or restore directly from iPhone device using UFUSoft Fonelab,which goes fast scanning and loading. In less than half minute, all the files in my iphone 5 were scanned. Then i can find the lost data under certain category. And what's lost and what's existed are classified too.

    The person you're replying to is a spammer who last posted a year ago. They were no help then and will certainly be of no help now.

     

    If you did not back up your pictures, unfortunately, they are gone.

    I Deleted some photos and then auto synced so I thought I lost them all. Tried different software to extract...no luck. Today I was looking through my Facebook photos and if you have an account and are signed in on your phone it automatically syncs your pics. They aren't shared unless you mark them for it.  om your home page select the more option (has 3 bars under it) then you can see your photos, shared albums, and synced photos.  Just click the pic, click the 3 dots on bottom left side, select save pic and it will be in your camera roll!!!

    Fireebok Data Recovery for iPhone is the only one to support recovery from iPhone 5.

    I use the advanced recovery function, recover most of deleted photos two months ago. Though they are not all, but it is amazing.

    I know that I can restore from iTunes  backup or iCloud backup, but I make a backup last time is last year.

    As for me, I would use photo recovery apps. Because I dislike cumbersome process to *******, such as from iTunes or iCloud. If you want fast way, go and search some iphone photo recovery tool.

    If you are talking about photos that were taken with the iPhone, then you might be able to restore some of them from a previous backup.  If there aren't any in any previous backups, then I'm afraid you are out of luck. 

     

    If these were photos that were synced to your iPhone, they should still be on your computer.

    When you want to recover iPhone photos, you are not allowed to connect your iPhone to computer directly, because iTunes will save the recent data automatically. First of all, you should check whether you have the backup files
    iTunes> preferences> devices
    All your backup files are listed.
    Then click iTunes>preferences> devices "prevent iPhone from syncing automatically." select OK and close the window after checking" don't sync"
    Now you can connect iPhone to PC and recover deleted photos from iPhone. What you should notice is that is based on you have the backup files.
    If you are not lucky to erase all pics....Sorry to tell you that you cannot get them back unless you don't mind some third party tools.

    Updating iTunes does not cause you to lose those things on your phone.

    Restore from your back up. If you don't have a back up (why don't you?), they are gone.
