Lost Photos On IPhone 4

-MRS_T-

Hi

I am looking for some help please

I recently sync my brothers phone to my itunes library and it has lost all his photos.

I just realised that the last sync and backup that I had on the itunes was in sept and this was his old iphone.

I was hoping there was a way to retrieve these photos and would appreciate any help anyone can give me.

Many thanks

Not a chance unless they're on another PC.

Is it not supossed to do a backup when you connect. I mean I just cant understand why when you plug it in would it delete everything new you have on your phone

I don't think it's going to help you much, but there is a thread here on the an Apple forum with a discussion on it. There seems to be quite a few people with the same problem.
As you say, it looks like it 'should' create a backup before doing a sync, but ....

Can you see the phone in windows if its connected via USB mass storage .
If so Recuva or similar recovery program may find the files .

Hiya thanks for your help. Yes I can see it in windows im sure when I connect it. My brother is not here just now but I will double check again tommorow.

Is Recuva a program that recovers files I presume.

I will also look into this option thanks.

Will let you both know how I get on.
