I have just released a Cocoa based GUI tool that does the same thing as the script, but is far easier to use and would thus greatly simplify the steps above. Let me know what you think of it: http://supercrazyawesome.com/ Cheers, Pádraig. Hi Andy,

Had a bunch of pictures of the kids on my iPhone, which broke. This worked like a charm and was able to get all of the pictures back. Thanks! Thanks for much for this info, you’re a lifesaver.

Wow, your instructions saved me...After updating iPhone FW to 2.1 I had problems restoring from a backup, so I ended up with a "new" phone...I knew there had to be a way to get some of the things back: i mostly cared about pictures. Me, being a complete novice in OSX (use windows myself) could go through your instructions without a problem, and after a few minutes was getting a copy of all the pictures! Besides that, I could find .plists for a few apps I had lost information from...now I can retype that easily!!! THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH (keyword:restore pictures from iphone backup) Hi Andy!!

Misbehaving iphone coupled with new baby resulted in a silly me restoring phone without grabbing photos first! Realised with horror that there were quite a few early shots of our latest family member lost to the digital neverland. I've never opened Terminal before but your article here is perfectly written as I was able to retrieve these photos with ease. Big love from from the UK .. -Pascal Hi Andy, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

An iPhone hiccup led me to lose several recordings and the app that created them, until I used your methods on an older backup (and managed to find them per your directions). I guess Terminal isn't that scary after all...makes me want to use PINE again! Andy, you are a lifesaver.
