Q: Help me find and restore my iPhone from an older back up

Hi, RockyLines.  

Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  

I understand that you want to restore your iPhone from a backup other than the most recent.  You will just need to select the Restore Backup option in iTunes and select the backup you wish to use from the drop down.  

iTunes

1. Connect your device to the computer that you stored your backup on.
2. Open iTunes. If iTunes tells you there's an iOS update, get the latest version.
3. Go to File > Devices > Restore from Backup. If you're using Windows and don’t see a File menu, press the Alt key.
4. Look at the date and size of each backup and pick the most relevant.
5. Click restore and wait for the process to finish. Your device will restart and then sync with your computer. Stay connected until the sync finishes.

Get help with this process, or read about encrypted backups.

 

Restore your device from an iCloud or iTunes backup

RockyLines, 

Glad you were able to get this all sorted.
