Please help! Did a backup to my laptop of my wife's old Iphone 8 before upgrading to 12 Pro today.  Now Itunes won't let me restore the backup.  Says some error about having to upgrade to the latest iOS.  When I try to do that to the new phone, it says an error occurred and won't let me do that either.  The backup is sitting on the laptop but I can't get to anything.  Have I lost all of these photos-there are years worth of photos we assumed were backed up before we turned in her phone today. 

 

Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks!
