How come my new iPhone 5 won't restore from my old iPhone 5?

I went to the apple store yesterday because my old iPhone 5's battery was messed up. They had me restore it and start it as a new phone to make sure that it was the phone not the stuff on the phone. Today I went back in and showed them that it was the phone that was messed up not the stuff on the phone. They gave me a knew iPhone 5 and I came home to restore it from my old iPhone 5. My old iPhone 5's software is up to date and the software is not old. I plugged my new iPhone into my computer and it keeps popping up saying, "The backup “Kalea's iPhone” cannot be restored to this iPhone because the software on the iPhone is too old." Why isn't it working?

  • How come my new group CC 2014 subscription opens up the old Application Manager and wants serial numbers?

    I'm signed up for a group CC account (just switched from a month-by-month) but when I try to launch a program it opens up the old Adobe Application Manager and asks for a serial number or start trial. Does anyone know what I need to do to get the access I'm supposed to be? Thanks

    The email ID here in forum has one CC registered to it which has expired, there is no other CC, of you trying to launch the CC with this Email ID then it will ask for serial number.
    Since you have CC for Team to this same Email ID, you need to log out & log back in of the Cc desktop app to activate the CC for Team though the activation server shows that the CC for Teams have been activated once on September 25th 2014.

    Most of the people on these forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here.
    Did you follow the instructions on that page exactly when creating the account (the instructions won't work with existing accounts) ? e.g. if doing it on your phone and you are currently logged into an account then log out of it, find a free app in the app store app, tap on its free price button, tap 'install app', and then tap on 'create new apple id' on the popup that you get. I tried those instructions on my phone a few days ago in response to another thread and I got the 'none' option on the payments screen.

  • How does the new iPhone 6/iWatch know whether I'm standing or sitting?

    I work long hours standing and I'm wondering how does the new iPhone/iWatch knows whether I'm standing or sitting down?  And what if I leave my iPhone on the table but I'm walking around with just my iWatch on the wrist, is the new Health App going to be keeping track of my walking around the office?

    You will know when you buy them and use them. No one here can answer that question yet.

  • IPhone 5 won't take a charge & won't restore from backup

    My iPhone 5 stopped taking a charge. So I updated to 7.whatever & backed it up. It still would take a charge so I went through recovery mode. That seemed to complete (I've done it twice now) However, the phone still won't take a charge and it won't restore from my backup. (Since the initial run through recovery mode it has never accepted the backup. It alway errors out saying the iPhone disconnected. It never disconnected physically and I've tried mutiple cables so which worn on my other iPhone so they are not the problem. If I plug the iPhone in it will cycle between on and off and never accept a charge or allow me to get through the backup process without "disconnecting" Any suggestions?

    Hello GreenLantern17,
    It sounds like you are unable to charge your phone and it keeps disconnecting when you have it plugged into your computer, even though you have tried mulitple cables. If you have not already, try charging the phone with the wall adapter that came with it. If it works there,  into I recommend starting with the following USB port troubleshooting for your computer:
    Remove any third-party battery packs or cases from the device and ensure that the USB cable is connected directly to the port on the device.
    If your Lightning or 30-pin cable is connected to a keyboard, display or USB hub, try plugging it directly into a USB port on the computer instead.
    Close any virtualization apps (such as Parallels or VMWare).
    These apps may interfere with your computer's ability to communicate over USB if they aren't properly configured, or up to date. If this resolves the issue, contact the developer of the app to see if an update is available.
    Restart your computer.
    Restart your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch.
    If you're using an accessory or third-party cable to connect your device, try using an Apple cable with the device instead.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes if you have not already.
    Disconnect other USB devices from your computer, except for your keyboard and mouse. Then, reconnect your iOS device. If the issue is resolved, reconnect the other USB devices one at a time. Make sure your iOS device is still recognized by the computer after adding back each device.
    If one of these steps resolves the issue, but it comes back later, make sure you haven't changed how the device is connected. For example, check to see if you plugged the device into a specific accessory, or used a specific cable that reintroduced the issue.

  • I had to change my Apple ID. However, it won't change in my phone. I changed it in setting, but when it comes to downloading updates for apps or music, it won't update from my old Apple ID.

    However, it won't change in my phone. I changed it in setting, but when it comes to downloading updates for apps or music, it won't update from my old Apple ID. For instance, I had to change my apple ID from (for instance, "[email protected]") to something else ("[email protected]"). I changed it in settings to the new one, but when I go to update apps, my phone is still connected to "[email protected]"
    What should I do?

    In the Finder do a Get Info on one of those files & the folder it's in, report what it says for privileges.
    Oh, did you maybe change your short username/Home Folder's name?

  • TS2972 my new computer does not show shared from my old computer. how long does this take??

    My new computer does not show share from my old computer how long does this take?

    I'm having the same problem. I have my main Library on a WXP machine and a new W7 laptop. My iphone 4 sees the library from the W7 machine, but neither the laptop nor the iphone see the big library on the WXP machine. I have configured firewall settings, tried the network wired and wireless, using same apple id on all devices, restarted itunes on all computers, turned sharing off and on on all computers. Nothing works.

    How can I transfer my email accounts and emails from my old macbook pro with ML to my new macbook pro with ML

    Do you have your system backed up to Time Machine? If so, you can open your user Library and copy your Mail folder from Time Machine to your Desktop on your new machine; then copy THAT folder to your new machine's user Library.
    To get to your user Library, open Finder and Go and press the Option key. Library will show up. Click on it to get into your user Library. Now go into Time Machine and you should see your user Library for Time Machine. Restore the Mail folder to your Desktop.
