Frequently Asked Questions

  • The program shows 0 messages.
    Solution: go to %APPDATA%\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\ (type that string in Run), and delete everything in there (it will delete old iTunes backups). Then plug in your iPhone, open iTunes, right-click on it and choose Backup.
  • Still 0 messages!
    Solution: YOU NEED TO DISABLE iCloud FOR THIS PROGRAM TO WORK. iPhoneSMSExport needs a local backup. Please open iTunes, plug in your iPhone, click on your phone in iTunes and make sure the Backup on your PC is selected, and not Backup on iCloud. Then do the above step again, and retry.
