What kind of computer are you using, Windows or Mac?


Mac- Click iTunes at the top of the screen next to the apple logo, click Preferences - Click devices tab- is there any more recent backups availalbe?


Windows- In ITunes -Click Edit - Preferences- Devices Tab- Are there any more recent backups?


If so, click ok on that pop up window.


On the left hand side of the screen, Right click on the iPhone under devices -click restore from backup select a more recent backup -click restore.


Wait...Check phone see what comes back
