FAQs of iOS Data Recovery

How to solve the common questions you might meet.

Q1. What's the difference between the trial version and the registered version of the program?

The trial version is exactly the same as the registered version. The only difference between them is that the trial version can only scan iTunes backup files, iCloud backup files, and iOS devices to preview lost data, but not retrieve it. You need to pay in order to recover and save the scanned data to your computer at the last step. The trial version for our customers is to see if the program can scan missing data. If our program can be scanned and displayed, it means it can help restore what they want.

Q17. What to do if you could not register program when facing register network error?

Generally speaking, if you are stuck on the register network error, perhaps your network connection is not stable or the web server is restricted. Here are several recommended solutions to fix the register network error.

  1. To Set the Firewall

    Because of the firewall setting, you may be not permitted to FoneDog’s web server. Under the circumstance, you are supposed to add “reg.fonedog.com” to the firewall. And you should set the network port to “443” and the protocol to “https”.

    There are several steps of how to switch off or set the firewall.

    a. Open the “Network and Internet” setting page under “Control Center”.

    b. On entering the “Network and Sharing Center”, choose “Windows Firewall”. You would see it on the left bottom.

    c. Choose “Turn Windows Firewall on or off” on the left side.

    d. Then you are on the “Customized Settings” page where you can turn off or set the firewall.

  2. To Check the Connection of Your Network

    If you are not sure whether the register network error is mainly due to a poor network connection, you could also try to connect your device to another better network and then register the program once more. If the registration is successful, it proves that the network connection causes the register network error.

  3. To Re-install the Program
  4. To Turn Off the VPN

    Hope the solutions above could help you fix the register network error. If you still have questions about this issue, please contact [email protected].
