Hi all,

Let me start by saying I know very little about technology beyond the basics. The only reason I even have an iPhone is because my mom bought it for me as a graduation present. So please, no terminology that might go over my head. That said, I've been having trouble with the speed at which my phone operates and I took it to the apple store for a diagnostics test. Turns out the phone needs to be reset due to corrupted software, which means I get to keep my backed up apps and info, but not my text messages.

So. I've been searching for third party apps that will help me save my messages before I do this reset. My first question is, which app is best for an iPhone 4 paired with a Windows 7 PC? And second, once I back the data up, can I transfer my texts BACK to my phone? Because otherwise, what's the point.


Thanks so much for any advice,
Michelle

Never mind. I'm just going to go with the iCloud to save my iMessages and either screenshot or cut my losses with the others. Thanks to anyone who was going to reply.

In my personal experiences, without backups stored on another storage device or online storage, you often have to rescue your deleted phone card data with the help of some phone card data recovery software, like 4Card Recovery, Recuva, iCare Data Recovery Free and more.
Stop saving new data on this phone card and also select a reliable tool to go on.
Learn a lesson to make phone card data backups from now on in case of similar data loss problems.
