Q: how to restore iphone photos from a time capsule itunes back up

It was a quick flick and because iphoto sharing was turned off - all my photos on my phone were gone. 

 

I am wondering if I can go into time capsule and find a previous backup of my iphone (on itunes) and restore it and then restore my phone

and a month of photos.

    Did you follow the instructions from the document you linked to. If not please try it.. if it failed where and why did it fail.

     

    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.
