Is it possible to recover deleted files from iPod?
There are many similar questions occurring on Q&A platforms recently, now I’ll give a total response to your queries. Actually, there’re two conditions that you can restore files from iPod.
1. If you have ever managed your iPod touch 5/4 by iTunes, then there is a great possibility for you to recover deleted files from iPod, because every time you sync your device on iTunes, the iTunes actually backs up your total device on the computer. Thus, you can recover deleted iPod by extracting previous iTunes backup files with use of the professional iPod backup extractor – Leawo iOS Data Recovery.
However, keep in mind that don’t sync or back up your device after you have found that you lost your data on iPod touch 5/4, or else, the deleted files on previous backup would be updated and overwritten, then you couldn’t recover deleted iPod from previous iTunes backup, but only the existed files in iTunes backup.
2. If you don’t have iTunes backup or the backup has been updated, it doesn’t matter, only if you have your iPod touch on hand, you can also recover deleted files from iPod. That is using iPod touch data recovery to scan your iPod touch directly. No matter data recovery from iPod touch 4, or from the latest iPod touch 5, both are feasible with the multi-functional iPod touch data recovery software.
Because usually, by deleting, you have only deleted the indexes of files, and the practical file contents are still there on your device and they actually take up a certain space. But if the storage space of the device tends to get full, then new data will come to occupy the space and the deleted data will be really overwritten. So to prevent your deleted data being overwritten, you’d better stop using your device immediately and resort to the professional iPod touch data recovery software.
