Is there any way to use icloud to transfer contacts onto a new iphone if you have already gone past the setup assistance guides?

I bought a new iphone today and wanted to transfer contacts over from my old iphone.
The person from the shop skipped the setup assistance screens, so now theres no options to transfer things from icloud
I was wondering if there is any way to do this?
Thanks

There is a way!
Simply do Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings (assuming this was a brand new iPhone).
That will start the whole setup process over.

    Back to the beginning...
    What do you mean by "documents"?  Word or Pages files, spreadsheet files?
    Also, on your device, in Settings>iCloud, you have to have an on/off setting for Docments&Data.  If not what kinds of entries do you have on that screen?

  • Is there any way to use a file transfer protocol to upload files to icloud?

    Is there any way to use a file transfer protocol to upload files to icloud?

    Unfortunately, no.
    You will need a 3rd party web host to upload your websites to. Depending on the version of iWeb you are using you have a couple of publishing options:
    iWeb ’09 (3.0.4) you can publish to an FTP Server or a local folder. ( With the built in FTP in iWeb you will end up with an address like “www.YourDomain.com/sitename/Home.html )
    iWeb ’08 you can publish your website to a local folder
    Basically all Web Hosting companies are iWeb-compatible.
    If you’re looking for a good hosting I would recommend IX Web Hosting I have been using them to host my own websites for several years now and that their customer support is awesome too.

  • Is there any way to use bluetooth to transfer photos from iPhone 4 to non apple devices?

    I am using an Iphone 4 and wanted to understand if it is anyway possible to send photos from my Iphone to my Blackberry via bluetooth directly. It seems a pretty basic phone feature is missing.

    If your luxury Mercedes didn't come with air-conditioning, no other alternative is provided by the manufacturer for keeping you cool. The iPhone has many (faster) alternative methods for sharing photos. Bluetooth is slow. It's far quicker to share a photo via multiple methods (email, file sharing apps, facebook etc.) over the internet, especially given the file size of average iPhone photos these days.
    In the time you've shared just one photo, with one person within 10 metres of you, over Bluetooth, I could've shared half a dozen photos with an unlimited number of people, located anywhere in the world.
    I guess you're happy using 15 year old methods of file transfer. You'll be asking for a dial-up connection to the internet next!!

  • Is there a way to use iCloud Photo Library WITHOUT syncing?

    The idea I had of iCloud Photo Library was that I could upload my pictures to it and access them from all my devices WITHOUT having to sync them.
    At the end of every month, I move all the photos from my phone to my computer. It helps me save space and keep things tidy. With iCloud Library, I want to access all my photos, but it looks like I must sync them through iCloud, and then to save space in my phone, I have to select "optimise space for iPhone". Is there any way to use iCloud Photo Library as a mere cloud storage? I don't want to keep photos on my phone, neither full resolution or "optimised" ones. I want to put them on iCloud, and when I need them, then I want my phone to download them.
    I realise I could use other cloud storage providers for this, but I have always liked Apple's integration with their own services, so if possible, I would like to use iCloud Photo Library without syncing to my devices. Just keep my stuff in iCloud, and when I tap it, download it.

    Doesn't work well in IE8 (9 I would think is ok), but is fine in the current version of Chrome.

  • I recently gave my old iPhone to my nephew, he switched it to his phone account, but somehow I now have his contacts on my new iPhone 5. When I look at my iCloud account, it lists his contacts. Is there any way for me to get my contacts back?

    I recently gave my old iPhone to my nephew, I did not clear out my old phone before I gave it to him, when he transferred to his account, he had my iCloud info on the phone, and it updated the contacts on my new iPhone 5 to his contacts. Is there any way for me to get my contacts back?

    This is caused by using the same iCloud account on both phones.  When you do this any data you sync with the shared iCloud account such as contacts is merged and will appear on all devices connected to the account.  To fix this you both need to have separate iCloud accounts (you can continue to share the same Apple ID for purchasing from the iTunes and app stores). 
    Decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account.  On the one that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. 
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (i.e., deleting your nephew's data from your account, and vice versa).
    As for recovering your lost contacts, if they aren't on icloud.com when you check from your computer, you will have to recover them from a backup source.  You could try restoring to your last backup but this doesn't always work for contacts.  (Chances are you nephew deleted your contacts from his phone, not realizing it would also delete them from yours.)

  • Is there any way to use -useLegacyAOT option in FlashBuilder 4.6?

    I need to build my ipa with old version of Engine because i have some problems about loading images from outside. Since with Air 15 it is default engine, and i cannot quit Air 15 because of the iTunes specs. I cannot add -useLegacyAOT=yes to compiler options on Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 because it seems that it can be added at FB4.7.
    So is there any way to add this options when i am using FB4.6
    Thanks in advance.

  • TS4036 I purchased an iphone for my daughter and we are using the same account and she deleted some contacts from her phone and they were deleted off of my contacts as well. Is there a way to use icloud backup to reinstall the contacts to my phone?

    I purchased an iphone for my daughter and we are using the same account and she deleted some contacts from her phone and they were deleted off of my contacts as well. Is there a way to use icloud backup to reinstall the contacts to my phone?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can only restore them from a Computer backup. This has occurred because you are sharing an iCloud account. ideally you should each have your own iCloud account, that way you can each manage your own mail, contacts, calendars, documents etc and avoid unintentional deletions and unwanted editing. If there is information you wish to share between you, this can be done with a secondary account.
    Having separate iCloud accounts, doesn't mean you have to have separate iTunes accounts, so whilst you keep your personal data separate, you can continue to share music, apps, books, TV shows, movies etc.

  • I'm using TestStand/Labview to do a string value test. Is there any way to use a variable in the edit string value test?? This forces you to hard code a string to test against.

    I'm using TestStand 2.0/Labview 6i to do a string value test. Is there any way to use a string variable in the edit string value test instead of an actual string?? This forces you to hard code a string to test against.

    Hi ART,
    You can also use the LimitLoader step to load your string into to step similar to the Numeric Step type.
    There should be an example of this in the Resource Library | TestStand

  • Is there any way to create a time machine backup to an external hard drive with content already on it?  I have a hard drive that i have used for pictures but when i try to run a backup it says i need to start from a blank drive. Can i get around it?

    Is there any way to create a time machine backup to an external hard drive with content already on it?  I have a hard drive that i have used for pictures but when i try to run a backup it says i need to start from a blank drive. Can i get around it?

    It would be much better if you had separate drives for the pictures and Time Machine backups.....but, if you want to use the same drive for both purposes, temporarily move the folder with the pictures to another location for safe storage.
    Run the Time Machine backup on the hard drive and verify that everything is working correctly. Time Machine will format the disk for you in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as part of the backup process.
    Then move the folder with the pictures back to the hard drive with the Time Machine backups.
    When you have tested to make sure that everything is working again, then and only then should you delete the folder with pictures from the temporary storage area.
    Again....it would be much better to keep Time Machine backups on a drive just for that purpose, and other data on another drive for that purpose. This is clearly one of those times when the fact that you can do something does not mean to imply that you should do it.
