TS4009 setting up phone from iclud backup, it loaded 372 of 3,000 photos and stopped what do I need to do
I am loading a new phone from icloud backup and it loaded 372 photos of the 3,000 on icloud and stopped
what do I need to do
Lightning is a problem for you because it hooks into Thunderbird at a low level and you need a version compiled for the platform Thunderbird is running on. So you can't do the preferred solution, which is to put your whole profile in a shared folder and have both instances of Thunderbird reference the same profile. (Ditto for Enigmail). Lightning may become an integral part of Thunderbird in an upcoming release, at which point this limitation due to Lightning should disappear.
And if you can't use a shared profile, you can't set your Lightning, or your Address Book, to share a common set of files. Put another way, the linkage from Thunderbird to its address book files and calendar data is hard-coded, and not exposed where we can adjust it. :-(
The halfway house is to place your mail stores in a shared place, and use the Local Directory setting in each account's settings to connect to it. They don't need to be in the profile; what's more important in your case is that they are in a folder accessible to both operating systems.
Look in your profile; everything under Mail and ImapMail needs to be moved out to a shared folder. Note the entries in Thunderbird under Local Directory before you do this, and reconstruct those pathnames in Thunderbird, but adjusted to suit their new locations.
(You can see here that you need to make many adjustments, one per account, in each instance of Thunderbird, so it's a high-maintenance solution and this is why we don't recommend it when the alternative, moving the whole profile, is possible.)
I share address books and calendars between Thunderbirds on various computers (and my phone and tablet) by syncing to something in the cloud; Google Contacts and Google Calendar are my choices, using gContactSync and CalDav.
Having made the break myself some years ago, I'd recommend you break away from Windows. ;-)

I purchased an iPhone 3 and had taken some photos on it. I started having issues within 30 days and could replace it. So I created an iCloud account and saved those photos as a back up on iCloud. I did not restore my new phone from back up because I did not realize I needed to restore and not just activitate it. How can I save the new photos, apps, and other stuff but retrieve the old photos?
If all you want is your old photos, you could backup your new phone using iTunes, then restore it from your iCloud backup, import the old photos to your computer, then restore it from the backup your made in iTunes returning your newer data to your phone. If you want your old photos on your phone, sync them there from your computer using iTunes. The process would look like this:
Connect your phone to your computer, when it appears in iTunes on the left sidebar right-click on it and select Transfer Purchases; right-click again and select Backup.
Disconnect from your computer and go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings to return it to new
Go through the activation setup, choosing to Restore from iCloud backup. Make sure your phone is plugged into a charger and has access to wi-fi as this can take hours to complete.
When complete, without connecting your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to Preferences. On the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically"
Now import the old photos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083)
When done, open iTunes, right-click on the name of your phone on the left sidebar and select Restore from Backup, choose the backup you made in step 1.
Go to the Photos tab and select the photos you want to sync to your phone and sync. -
Unable to get new iphone 5c recognized as a device in itunes for syncing purposes. Backup from old phone made yesterday and now would like to sync new phone from that backup. Any advice appreciated.

Even if I enable the new phone to backup automatically with the cloud? Wouldn't that keep everything up to date? And if I use the software, couldn't I choose to copy just the music & messages to I tunes, and not select anything else to keep the data from the new phone intact? Sorry, this is confusing. I like these products, but Apple really fails on portability. I had this same issue with Ipod years ago, and it ****** me off then too. They sold me (the last time I lost everything) on the icloud, telling me it backed EVERYTHING up. I'm a bit upset at store personnel right now to say the least.
Sorry I was under the impression you still wanted to restore from your old phone backup.
yes if you enable backup on your new phone everything will be up to date.
Yes you can use the software to move music and message to your computer - you would need to add the music back to your iTunes media library.
I provided a link with what is backup to icloud. YOur purchased item is always tied to your apple id. -
When I restore my phone from a backup, isn't it suppose to give me back all my apps as well?
No it is not, a back up holds App Data but not the app itself
Apps are transfereed to iTunes by a method called "Transfer purchases" aswel as all purchases from the itunes or app store on the device.
If the apps are on iTunes you need to sync them back to the iPhone.
If the apps are not on iTunes on your pc/mac make sure you are signed into the correct Apple ID then go to App Store>Updates>Purchases here it will show you a list of the apps you have downloaded/purchased with that Apple ID. To download them simply click the cloud button with the arrow in the middle to the right of the app. -
Hi, so I pushed autofill because I thought that it would put music on my phone from a different iTunes library but it didn't work, and now the songs show up grey in my music on my phone and they won't play, but they are still there. What can I do to fix this and get rid of the grey songs?
Go back to iTunes, select the Music tab, uncheck the 'sync music; button, then hit apply.

i have a new computer from my father that already has his iphone content on it. what do i need to do to switch my phone over from my old computer to the new one and have the new computer sync MY contacts and content to the new computer without erasing my contact lists and purchased apps?
okay from reading posts it seems if I transfer my backed up info from my old comp to the new one and erase my dad's phone's back up i could reset my phone and it would transfer all my old data back onto the phone, be linked to the new computer and i could proceed. Where do i find the backed up info from my phone?

My hard drive crashed and I am using a different machine. How do I retrieve my personalized Pages 5.2 templates from my backup drive? I have searched at length and can't seem to find them.
login_directory = /Users/yourname
If the Library folder is not shown in your login directory, then open a Finder window, and press command+J. This will open a Finder View Options panel. On it, there is a selectable entry to Show Library Folder. Once this is selected, the Library folder will appear. Now, follow the instructions in my May 6 post. You will have to right-click on com.apple.iWork.Pages and choose Show Package Contents, before continuing.
Correction: login_directory/Library/Containers/com.apple.iWork.Pages/Data/Library/Applicatio n Support/User Templates/
The host software persists in changing the correct Application Support text above to Applicatio n Support, which does not exist. -

My original computer that has my itunes account on it no longer works. I am trying to import my phones itunes settings into my new computer and it is not letting me and I don't want to loose all my photos and music, what do I do?
It does not magically appear in a new place. It will only be where you put it.
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one. -
during restore of my backup on iphone 5s i saw my photos and videos get doubled on ios 8.0 and moreover
if i use to go at my computer and then open my iphone and in folder i see some files name local disk and my photos
please help my memory doubles.I'm not sure, but I know it's not recommended to upgrade to iOS 8 on anything older than an iPhone 5. I only lost my music playlists and music that was on my phone, but that music is also on my iTunes, not the playlists though, and I don't want to go through ALL my iTunes library to fix it either... But it seems I don't have a choice right now.
Whatever you do, do NOT upgrade to iCloud Drive, keep iCloud till OS X Yosemite comes out, if your computer is a Mac. I also just noticed that all my documents on my phone are gone from Pages, BUT if I go on the iCloud website they are still there. Hopefully it will all work itself out when I can update my macbook pro to OS X Yosemite.
If you backed up your phone and all your purchases off your iPhone prior to trying to upgrade you should be fine... But I'm not even remotely sure. -

I updated SCCM 2012 R2 from CU3 to CU4. Where can I find good directions on what else I need to do to make this work? I'm assuming I have to deploy the new clients?
Thanks,
James
James A+, Network+, MCPYou have to create different collections (x64 vs x86 clients) because the .msp to be deployed is architecture specific.
"Distribute content" just distributes binaries to distribution points. You can select a collection there, but that has nothing to do with clients. It just distributes content to DPs that are assigned to collections.
Torsten Meringer | http://www.mssccmfaq.de
Ok. That is helpful. I appreciate the response. I hate to ask another question, but I', still learning the product. In the Step-by-Step SCCM 2012 R2 CU4 Installation Guide from System Center Dudes, it says to create the collections by using their predefined
queries. I tried to enter these as queries but I think I am doing so in the wrong area of the collection creation process. Could you break it down for me?
Do you know of any good training (free) that is video based an breaks SCCM 2012 R2 down into smaller more detailed steps?
Thanks,
James

i am the first owner of my iphone i erase all data and i am trying to open the phone but its does the same thing like the first photo and i cant find my first apple id because i have deleted the email i used for it because i maked a new one please help
Why do you need to access your email? To reset the password?
If you're trying to change the password, you don't need to go to your email. If you know the answers to your security questions, you can reset it without using an email, as explained in the first section of this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5787. If you don't, you can contact Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Products and Services>Apple ID>Other Apple ID Topics>Lost or forgotten Apple ID password.
