How to potentially recover lost data from an iPhone

 

Well I updated my iPhone to 4.3.1 and ran into some issues.  I was jailbroken on 4.0.1 with greenpoison, was having a few issues with random crashing and stuff so I thought that I’d update to see if it fixed it.  I sync’d my phone with iTunes before all of this as well, apparently it didn’t save anything though since I restored to a point a year ago.


I’ve been trying to scourer the interwebs for anything that will help, but a lot of help is scattered between a lot of posts from multiple forums.  I figured that while it’s still fresh on the brain that I’d try to share what I’ve found and the results I’ve had.

Recovery Programs

Everything I found had a price tag associated with it or it was for an operating system that I do not own.  The most useful was the iPhone backup extractor by reincubate.

Songbird drops Linux support. Did they just lose all their helpful user base?

Yesterday the Songbird Dev’s announced that they will no longer be developing Songbird for Linux.  Not being heavy on music being played from my dusty iPod, I’ve never really explored Songbird much.  I did know that it was very popular as the go to software as an iTunes replacement in the Linux world.  You can also tell that from most of the comments in their blog posting most others felt the same way.

I think we’re all wondering, “Why did they stop developing for Linux but Kept Mac support?”.  Why continue to develop a iTunes replacement on the two operating systems that run iTunes natively?

My guess is that if you are going to buy a Mac, you’re going to use iTunes and nothing else.  You just spent a couple extra thousand more for that Genius bar support, so why would you throw that way for Songbird?  Granted this doesn’t apply to all, but I would guess most.

Windows, windows, windows.
