Hi there,


My phone was backed up and restored as my daughter accidently changed and passcode and we had to restore it. But, I have lost all the photos I had on this phone. Please help.

If you have not used any of the ways that Apple provides to save photos they are gone forever. Did you do any of these?

  • Back up your phone to iTunes
  • Set up automatic daily backups to iCloud
  • Enable Photo Stream
  • Enable Photo Sharing
  • Enable Photo Library
  • Copy photos to your computer using a USB cable


Or any of the 3rd party photo management solutions:

  • Upload to Google Picasa
  • Upload to Shutterfly
  • Sync to box.com
  • Sync to dropbox.com
  • Sync to Amazon Drive
  • Sync to Google Drive
  • Upload to Google+ Photos
  • Sync to Microsoft OneDrive
