my pc got reformatted just yesterday and it doesn't have any back up. so, it came back to me with nothing in it but mozilla firefox and other applications necessary like microsoft office, adobe and etc. but all my files are gone now. is it possible to retrieve all those? all my photos were synced to my iphone, not taken directly from the phone..
Answer
Sit down, it might be a bumpy ride. If you aren't a super computer wiz, that's ok, but be sure to read up before attempting, because it is possible.
Because Apple does everything with iTunes, in order to retrieve files from your iphone, a jailbreak is necessary. Jailbreaking is the process of removing the restrictions apple puts on it's products. Not only will it allow you, with a utility, to view and copy files on it, but jailbreaking will also allow you to install things like themes and other third-party apps. To learn more about jailbreaking, go to http://www.michaelfruchter.com/blog/2009/09/jailbreaking-my-iphone-its-all-about-the-customization/
For a detailed procedure for jailbreaking on software version 3.1.3, go to http://www.redmondpie.com/sn0wbreeze-3.1.3-jailbreak-iphone-3g-3gs-3.1.3/
Then, you will have to download Itunes and a nifty utility called iFunbox from http://www.i-funbox.com/. iFunbox allows you to explore the files saved on your Iphone as if it were a flash drive or external hard drive.
Once everything is installed, open funbox and navigate to the photos folder. Then highlight the pics you want to copy and click "copy to PC" on the upper bar.
I wish you luck, and hope it works out. I know it might be confusing if you don't know a lot about it, so feel free to message me or ask questions!
