Hi all,
My ipad went into recovery mode upon updating it late last year. It had not been backed up since a month before this happened and I have some photos and videos in it from my holiday which I don't want to erase. I found out that TinyUmbrella can kick ipads out of recovery mode without losing any data, however, that version of TinyUmbrella didn't work on my device (probably because it had ios 8 installed). The new version of TinyUmbrella released a few weeks ago, so I installed that and it seems to have fetched the OTA from my ipad. I don't know what I should do next to retrieve the photos and videos, or if that is possible using this TinyUmbrella version at all. I would really appreciate any help in either retrieving that data from my ipad, or restoring it without losing the data.
Please note: I never backed up my ipad using iTunes, which means I have no backups of those photos and videos at all.
