Restoring from a backup. How to restore from an iCloud backup without resetting How to restore a backup using a regular tool

IPhone owners have to deal with the situation of restoring a backup. You can save music, movies, books, TV shows, contacts, programs, photos and so on in it. In short, almost all of the information your iPhone stores. Most of the data is backed up to iCloud and iTunes. How to restore an iPhone backup will be discussed in this article. But some may not even know how to create it. Therefore, we will talk about creating and restoring an iCloud and iTunes backup.

ICloud backup

In order to create a backup, you need to go to "Settings / iCloud / Copy to iCloud (enable)". And that's all, after the backup function is enabled, it will happen every day, but only on the condition:

Internet connection via Wi-Fi
Locked screen
Charged, i.e. connected to a power source

You can create a backup copy manually. This requires your device to be connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi. Next, you need to go to "Settings / iCloud / Storage and copies", then select "Create a copy". It should be noted that iCloud only works with devices starting with iOS 5.

Restoring from an iCloud backup

In order to restore an iPhone from an iCloud backup, you need to do the following:

After you start working with a new device with iOS 5, an assistant appears.
Select "Recover from iCloud Copy" and then enter your iCloud account name and password.
In the list that appears from the last 3 backups, you must select the one that will be restored.
The previous settings will be restored immediately after the system is restarted. Your files will start downloading. To find out if the recovery is complete, go to Settings> iCloud> Storage & Backups.

ITunes Backup

You can create a backup of devices in iTunes in 2 cases. First, while syncing with iTunes. It should be remembered that the function is disabled if the backup is in iCloud. Secondly, when you press either the right mouse button or the left button with the Control key on the very name of the iОS device in iTunes, and after that select the "Create a backup copy" item.

If you need to create a manual backup for your iPhone or other iOS device, you can do it as follows:

Connect your device to your computer. It should be remembered that the latest version of the iTunes program must be installed.
Go to the "Devices" tab and select the desired device.
Then you should press either the right mouse button or the left one with the CONTROL key on the device name itself and select the "Create a backup copy" item.

Restore from backup in iTunes

Now we come to the question of how to restore from an iТune backup. To restore information, you need to connect the device to a personal computer. It should be noted that the connection is required exactly to the PC on which this iPhone or other iOS device is usually synchronized, after which the following actions are performed:

Connect iPhone to PC and launch iTuneS
In the sidebar, right-click on iPhone and click "Restore from Backup".
In the list that opens, select the required backup.
Click "Restore".

For users of jailbroken devices, we can say that during the process of restoring calendars, SMS, notes, contacts and settings on iPhone, the firmware of the device is not affected, and even more so, the factory settings of iPhone are not returned. Therefore, they can use the function of restoring from a backup copy of iТunes safely.

So we finished our conversation about restoring from an iPhone backup. Remember that regular backups can reduce the likelihood of data loss and help restore information in the event of a loss of iPhone. This will keep you unaware of data loss problems. We wish you good luck!

If Windows insists on a "skiff", what can usually be done in this case? Those who are less experienced see one universal solution in their heads - to reinstall the system. I would postpone this option as a last resort, because after reinstallation you will have a "bare" Windows without any programs you previously installed. And you end up having to install and configure everything all over again. Another option is to restore the system from a checkpoint, however, this does not always help. But how to make sure that both the programs and the problems from the problems that have arisen in the system get rid of at once? To do this, you need to first create a backup copy of the partition on which Windows is installed, and then in case of any failures in its operation, you can always restore the system to the state at which you created the copy, with all the programs and parameters. In this article, I will show you how to restore Windows from a backup.

It is clear that to restore Windows in this way, you will need an existing backup. If you have not created it before, then you, accordingly, will have nothing to restore the system from, and then this recovery option is no longer for you.

System restore process from a backup in Windows 8 (8.1) and Windows 10

Launching the recovery program

There are several ways to start the process of restoring Windows 8 and Windows 10 from a backup:

Thus, if your Windows 8/10 at least starts successfully, then the easiest way to start the recovery is by the 1st method. If the system does not start and does not open the diagnostic program itself, then you need either a recovery disc (method 2) or a Windows 8/10 installation disc (method 3). If neither the one nor the other disk is not present, and Windows does not boot, then you will not be able to start the recovery process!

Image recovery process

After you run a special shell (program) through which you can perform various options for restoring Windows, it will look like this:

Select "Diagnostics".

In the next window, click "Advanced Options".

Then select "System Image Recovery".

The program will start to restore your system from the previously created image. Right now, you can connect to your computer via USB the disk or flash drive on which you store the created image (backup). If your image is stored on one of the hard disks installed in the computer, then you do not need to connect anything, respectively.

If the program finds an already installed operating system on the computer, then you will need to log in under your account:

If the account has a password, enter it (1) and click "Continue" (2) or just click this button.

If you did not have Windows 8 or Windows 10 installed on your hard drive, the program will not require you to log in to your account and you will immediately proceed to the next step - recovery.

If you have a backup copy of the system on some external drive and you have not connected it yet, then do it now and update the backup search so that the program will find it.

When the image with the backup copy is found, the recovery program will select it itself (if you created several copies, the most recent, current one will be selected). Click Next (2).

If suddenly the program automatically selected the wrong backup, then click "Select a system image" (3) and click "Next" to manually find the backup. And in the next window you can select an image from the list of found ones or click "Advanced" to enable the search for an image on the network or install a driver for equipment that is not recognized by this program and on which your backup copy is stored.

In the next window, if the option "Exclude disks" (1) is active, then you can click the corresponding button in order to exclude those disks that should not participate in the recovery process, since information on all recovered disks will be deleted and partitions on them will be created anew. If this option is not active, then, most likely, you have connected, so, only 1-2 disks and the choice cannot be made.

Click Next to start the recovery process.

By clicking "Advanced" (2), you can configure 2 more options:

Whether to restart the computer immediately after recovery. If you disable this option, then after recovery you will receive a window with a message about successful recovery, after which you will need to manually restart your computer.
Check drives automatically. It is best to leave this option enabled at all times.

In the last window, it remains to click "Finish" to start the process of restoring Windows 8/10 from the backup you selected.

The recovery time directly depends on the size of your backup from which you are recovering the system.

After the recovery is complete, if you have not disabled automatic restart, the computer will reboot itself and the already restored Windows will start. If you disabled automatic reboot, then after recovery, the following window will open:

Click "Restart Now" in it.

That's all! Windows 8 or Windows 10 image recovery is complete.

Windows 7 system restore process from a backup

There are only 2 ways to start the Windows 7 recovery process from a previously created image (backup):

Boot from the Windows 7 installation disc.
Boot from the previously created recovery disc.

Therefore, if Windows 7 does not start for you (and the so-called diagnostics itself does not start) and you do not have one of the above disks, then you cannot restore the system from the image.

The recovery process itself is similar to that described in the chapter above, for Windows 8 and Windows 10. I will show you how to start it using the example of booting from the Windows 7 installation disc (when booting from the recovery disc, everything will be the same).

So, when the boot from the installation disk is done, click "Next".

In the next window select "System Restore".

Conclusion

I recommend that you create your Windows backup when you install all the necessary programs and customize everything for yourself. This will allow you to quickly restore the entire system with all programs and settings in case of failures. From time to time, you can update your created image, that is, create new, more up-to-date backups, because over time you install new programs, delete unnecessary ones, change some settings, and so on.

And the recovery process itself is not complicated, as you can see, especially if you have Windows 8 or Windows 10 systems installed, since the recovery process can be started directly from their shell (if, of course, Windows at least starts). With Windows 7, everything is a little more complicated only by the fact that you cannot start recovery directly from Windows, but you must have a recovery disc or an installation disc with Windows.

We will also cover a number of issues that you may face when restoring an iCloud backup and how you can solve them.

Part 1. Common scenarios when you might lose data

If you want to restore an iCloud backup to a new iPhone during the initial setup, here are the basic steps for you to follow.

Start backing up your old iPhone or iPad to iCloud. This will ensure that the restore iCloud backup will have the most recent data.

Follow these very easy steps to backup your Iphone or Ipad to iCloud

Step 1: Click on the settings icon on your iPhone's home screen to launch the settings menu.

How to recover from iCloud backup without rebooting

What if you want to recover data from your iCloud account without restarting your device? This situation can arise if you only lost part of the data, like a few messages, and you would rather not erase everything from your device in order to get back a few lost messages.

You receive the error message “There was a problem downloading iCloud backups. Try again, set as new iPhone, or restore from iTunes backup. "

If you see this message, it usually means that there is a problem with the iCloud servers. To mitigate this problem, you should check the status of the iCloud system.

Go to the web page at http://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/ and if the status is green the servers are working fine and the problem may be your own device's connection. Just wait a few hours and then try again.

Photos and videos cannot be recovered

This can happen if the camera roll was somehow excluded from the backup section. You can check the iCloud backup to see if the camera is allowed to roll. Here's how;

Step 1: Open Settings> iCloud and then Tap on Storage & Backup> Manage Storage.

Step 2: Select the device name, which is also the device being backed up and make sure Camera Roll is set to.

This ensures that even photos and videos are backed up. Wait a few hours and try again.

We hope you can restore your iCloud backup although if you are having problems with your backup Dr Fone will be the perfect choice as it does not rely on iCloud servers.
