I think I deleted my old iPhone profile is there anyway to get it back? Help?!
iPhone help anyone?? I just got my replacement iPhone and tried to sync it with my old iPhone 4 profile. It said it couldn't because it was an old operating system so I would have to set it up as a new iPhone first. Now my old iPhone with all messages, photos etc. has disappeared...is there anyway of getting it back??!! Also my new iPhone says it can't download the new software as the firmware is not compatible. I really don't want to have lost all my old iPhone information, please help!! My iCloud account is still set up to my old iPhone profile if that helps? Could it be that my old iPhone is blocked?
Firmware not compatible is often an indication that your iTunes isn't up to date. Update it to the latest version (10.6.3), then try updating your phone again. You can check to see if the backup of your old phone is still there by going to iTunes preferences and looking at the backups list on the Devices tab. If it isn't there then you can't get your old data back (unless you had backed up your old backup). If it is, then once your new phone is up to date right-click on the name of your phone on the left sidebar of iTunes and select Restore from Backup, choosing the backup of your old phone to restore to.
When you set up your new phone, sign into your existing iCloud account and go to Settings>iCloud and turn on syncing for contacts, calendars and your other iCloud backup and your iCloud data should be restored to your phone.

If I restored my new iPhone from iCloud backup, and I delete the old iPhone backup to make room on iCloud to back up my new phone, will it delete everything on the new phone?
I have this exact same issue. Replaced my iPhone 4s with the new iPhone 5s, setting up my new iPhone 5s to restore from iCloud. This completed and now I am unable to delete my old iPhone 4s iCloud backup (consuming 15.1 GB of my 20GB allocation). How can I delete it, so that I get my 15 GB back? I am not going to invest in additional iCloud storage, because I will be 15 GB down from the off.

My old computer crashed and I had to get a new one. I was unable to save anything from the old computer. Is there anyway to get my music from my Ipod to my new computer without having to start over with the old cd's again
Hello cheech07,
The following article contains directions that can help get you back on track with iTunes. I'd recommend picking up at 'Part 5' of the 'External drive' section.

please help me.......i forgot my encrypt iphone backup pasword ......now i cant backup my contacts...is there anyway to get password back.....unfortunately i dnt have back on icloud n i need my contacts back ...plz plz plz help me
What happened to your phone that you are trying to restore to a backup that is encrypted? If you have your contacts in iCloud, you can just turn iCloud back on when you get the phone working, if it isn't, and that will bring your contacts back. You won't need to do a restore from an iCloud backup if you were not doing an iCloud backup anyway. If you log into www.icloud.com and look at contacts, what do you see there?

Ever since I started using iCloud, all the older events in my calendar have disappeared. I need to get them back, and keep them in my calendar on my iPhone. How do I get them back and change the settings so that I keep all my calendar events?
Thanks!Thanks to AKRBTN for this reply to a previous poster. I had a similar question (not that iPhone was deleting past events, but that it just wasn't synching past events). I called APPLCARE; the rep said since my phone is out of warranty, I could either pay $20 to get help from her or go online. Easy choice to check the Apple community. Nice to find where the setting is.

I am a student away from home. Is there any way around going home with the replacement iphone to get my backed-up stuff? Or is all stored on that PC's hard drive? If so, can it be downloaded onto a disc and posted to me do you think? I don't rreally understand how it all works :-/
Very hard to do, but not impossible. Depends on what setup you have at home and what data you want
Windows or Mac?
Calendar, Contacts, Music and content only, or data from apps as well -
Why has some of my purchased music been deleted off my iPhone 5 and how do I get it back?
When I first got my phone I bought some music off iTunes and now I can't find old songs I used to have but they still appear on my iPad. Please tell me how I can get my old songs back onto my phone! I have tried to manage my iCloud too.
Hey Leo123451,
I would follow the directions in here to download all your purchased music from iTunes:
Downloading past purchases from the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store

The contacts icon was deleted from my iPhone 5. How do I get it back?
My granddaughter played with my phone and deleted the Contacts icon. The information is still on the phone under Phone. How do I add the icon back?
Well, it's impossible to delete Apple's Contact app. Swipe the home screen to the right and type in a search bar for 'CONTACTS' and it should find the app. She may have put it into a folder or it's on page 9/screen. It's there, you may need to do a little searching and that may take time on your part.
(Apple apps can't be deleted.) -
Yeah, I just got the iphone on friday so I'm going to be one of those people..
I was holding the phone while I was helping my sister get the dogs settled in the car and I must have been pressing onto the camera icon and I didn't even realise it until I looked down after a few minutes and the icon was gone. I was just hoping someone could help me out with that. Please and thank you.
KellieGo to settings, general - restrictions - camera....make sure it is turned on. I did the same thing with my camera icon and this step fixed it.

I accidently delete a contact. Is there anyway to get it back?
?
Deleted a contact from your iPhone's address book and if so, do you sync your iPhone's contact information with the Address Book on your Mac?
If so, have you synced your iPhone with your Mac since deleting the contact from your iPhone? -
I restored my new phone from an earlier date than my niece's baptism. I don't know if I should have restored or set up as a new phone. But my problem now is that I really want those pictures. I had icloud on that phone and the new one. Can anyone help me or tell me if I can get those pictures back. When I log into my itunes account on my computer it still shows the other phone as a device but I only see where you can remove that device. Thank you need to take a class on all this new technology.
Like a digital camera, you should be syncing your photos from iphone to a computer often. If you have been doing that, you should find the photos on the computer.
If you had been backing up you iphone to icloud, then you could restore the backup, but many users have complained here that they lost all their photos when doing a restore, none seem to have been in the backup. Since your new phone is new, then try doing a restore (you should have done that when you first set up the new phone - if you did and the photos did not come back, then they are lost).
To restore, look through this help page, scroll to the bottom for restore instructions.

I don't know who responded but, the answer is the Mail App is no longer in my Apps folder.
I got MacKeeper because my Mac was slow and doing weird things. I found as long as I didn't a quick cleanup and removed duplicate files, eliminated foreign languages that were taking up space everything started working well,again.
I'm currently in the process of undeleting everything hoping that will bring things back. Unfortunately, I don't know if it will since I emptied my Trash. I have 150 hours to go on the undelete process.Personally I would not trust MacKeeper to be able to undelete anything.
I would alo highly recommend that you uninstall MacKeeper.
From the sounds you message what it sounds like your problem was originally was insuffient disk space. Instead of MacKeeper what you should have gotten for yourself was an external drive.
Do you have backups?

I have accidentally clicked 'forget this connection/network' on Bluetooth on my iPhone. It was the connection for the Bluetooth in my car. Is there anyway to get it back?
What I have done whenever I restore iOS to my iPhone and set it up as a new phone is I remove the phone entry in my car's BT; then let my phone discover the car's BT and tap 'Pair' on my phone which would prompt for my car's 4-digit passcode. Final result was the phone re-paired to my car's BT.
You might be able to still re-pair your iPhone without going through what I described IF it discovers your car's BT.
