new iPhone restore from old backup and lost new photos

So i tried this, and it worked quite well. I copied the folder elsewhere, and added .jpg to the end of all the files. Only thing is that only half the files in the folder turned into images after adding .jpg, and the other half didnt change when i added the .jpg. Any idea what extension I should add to change those filed? I tried .png and .mov and still nothing, and I know the picture is in there because some similar ones that I took that same day turned back into images, just a particular one im looking for didnt for whatever reason

I have just got a new iphone 5s and the same thing happened to me, got some new snaps on it and then plugged it into my pc for the first time, got asked if I wanted to restore my old data or start it up as a new phone, without any warning that my current data would be wiped. So I ended up losing my new pictures, but after faffing about I managed to find them again on my pc! But I hadn't previously backed them up or imported them into my computer. I just went on my pc went into Library's / pictures and I found a folder called photo stream and it turns out the pictures I lost where in their so I just saved them on my pc. I don't know, its worth a try I guess

Unlike computer, iPhone doesn't have a trash bin that you can get back lost photos on iPhone, but you still have chance to get your photos back. Check this article how to recover deleted photos from iPhone.

There are two ways to recover iPhone photos, from iTunes/iCloud backup and without backup

This is very useful for me.

Thanks!

I ended up following the instructions listed here: restore iPhone deleted photos

After executing steps 1 & 2 and then repeating step 1, my backup resumed and finished quickly.

If yours had got overwritten though, this might not be your fix.

Good luck!

And were you ever able to recover any of the photos?

have Apple solved this problem yet? I'vs just lost all my photo in my new iPhone after back up to macbook 😟

Hi,

For any one else struggling with this and you have iOS10, try your recently deleted album in your Photos app. If not, try restoring from an iTunes or iCloud backup. However this will only work if you had created a backup before the photos were deleted.

If you haven't created a backup, you can recover deleted photos straight from your iPhone with a program we developed here in my office.

Take a look we'd be happy to help :-)

Does this software work if a new iPhone (that had not previously been backed up and iCloud disabled) was restored to old iPhone settings (therefore losing all photos etc that had been taken on the new phone)? I'm looking to recover the stuff from the new phone before it had been restored to an old phones settings/data.

Music is not part of a backup for copyright reasons. If you purchased the content from iTunes, you can always redownload it for free. if it came from CDs you purchased, then it had to be synced from a computer and should be on your computer and therefore recoverable with just a few clicks. The copyright aspect is Apple's cost of doing business with the music lables, not a choice they're making to inconvenience their customers.

Hi lorestan,

Indeed, if you're using iTunes to restore data, there will no be a warning messages to remind you that it will erase your current data.

However, do you sync those photos to iCloud? Please login iCloud.com to check out whether there are here.

Or, you might need to directly scan your iPhone for the lost photos via iPhone Data Recovery - iFoneTips.

Hope it helps.

Hi there,I have the same issue too! Did you recover all the photos you have on the new phone? Thnx

Did you recover all your photos?

What instructions??????? When you restoring from stupid iTunes backup, iTunes does not ask for merging data or even warn you that you're about to lose your data.

Your data is no one's responsibility but your own. If you didn't back up regularly and now your data is gone after you accidentally water damaged your phone, how exactly is that Apple's fault?
