I was helping a client today who used his scanner connected to his mac and used Image Capture to save the scan. He then copied the file over to his pc to make it work with his corporate system. When he was on his Windows 7 computer, there didn’t seem to be a default or installed utility that would open up .jp2 files. After some research it turns out that Photoshop, Infranview, XnView can open them on the PC.

Its a times like these with simple cross platform struggles, that I wish that Microsoft and Apple would combine forces.

Problems restoring backup to an iPhone 4?

In this thread he discusses this problem and even finds a solution. Great work juan152.

 I was able to solve it!

So, I have a Windows 7 (64-bit computer) with the latest updated iTunes and it woudn’t want to restore my iPhone to a backed up version I had a few days ago. These are the steps I took to fix it myself.

What I used: 2 Laptops (Windows 7 laptop and Windows Vista Computer) and an external hard drive.

1. On my Windows 7 computer, I went to C:/Users/User/AppData/Roaming/Apple Computer/Mobile Sync/Backup/[a huge set of numbers/letters] and put all the files of the earliest folder (as it is the most recent backup) into my external hard drive for transfer. ***Note: In order to view AppData, you must Unhide all hidden folders from the control panel***

2. I transferred the folder from my external hard drive to my Windows Vista Computer in C:/Users/User/AppData/Roaming/AppleComputer/MobileSync/MobileSync/Backup….

3. I connected my iPhone to my Windows Vista Computer, right clicked my iPhone in iTunes and “Restore from Backup.” The huge folder that I copied from my hard drive to my Local Disk Drive C:/ was there and it was able to restore!

Good luck! This took me 3 hours to figure out!
