So I made a little boo-boo yesterday. I restored my iPhone 4 to new without restoring my backup. That I
meant to do. However, my mistake was forgetting to check the option to backup my iPhone to my computer
instead of iCloud. So since I restored as new, iTunes made a new backup of the "new" iPhone as it
started syncing my apps back. So now when I go to iCloud it only gives me the newest backup.
Is there a way to get to old backups on iCloud or am I just pretty much screwed? The only reason I want it
is to restore my camera roll so I can back it up on my computer before restoring as new again.
