Restore options

The restore options allow you to customise what data and apps you want to restore. transfer options

💡 Tip: If you are restoring a backup to a device which has already some data on it, we advise to check the option Erase target device(s). This will prevent potential conflicts with the Apple ID already configured on your target device.

💡 Apps Tip: If you have downloaded some of your apps with iMazing, you'll have the option to install apps from your app library when restoring a backup. This can be a life saver as you'll be sure that you don't have to wait for apps to be downloaded by iOS after you restore a backup, downloads which can take a very long time. Read more about downloading apps before restoring.

Choose what data to transfer

Select what datasets you want to restore. Use the Select All checkbox to select or deselect all datasets. The following must be restored:

Dataset Description
Accounts: Accounts are all email, contacts, calendars and other cloud service configured on your device.
Other Data and Preferences: Other data and preferences are all settings, system files etc so basically all the data not related to a dataset in particular.

Turn off Find My iPhone

Find My iPhone includes a feature called Activation Lock that is designed to prevent anyone else from using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch if it's ever lost or stolen. Activation Lock is enabled automatically when you turn on Find My iPhone.

When Find My iPhone is turned on, Activation Lock prevents iMazing from restoring a backup to your device.

To learn how to disable ativation lock, see How to turn off "Find my iPhone" on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.

What to keep in mind

  • Restoring a backup might take some time to complete. To check the operation's status, click on the Operations button in the upper toolbar (see step 8).
  • Restoring a backup will not change the target device's passcode.
  • Backups do not include your iTunes Media Library (Music, Books, iTunes U, Podcasts, Ringtones and Movies synced or purchased on iTunes), so that data will not be restored and should be synced separately if needed. This data is usually already synced via iTunes, Apple Music or iCloud Music Library.
