When I go to restore my phone; is there any way to pick what you want back on your phone or do you have to get everything backed up?

Thank you. I was afraid of that. I backed up from iCloud. I looked at the iTunes one - it had four different ones on there; was hoping I could see because my grandson's phone was redone last year (his mom messed it up then) and didn't know anything was backed up to iTunes. He lost a lot of stuff that time. I'm just trying to get his phone back to par after someone changed his passcode on him as a joke and forgot what they changed it to a few days ago. They should change it so one could go in and pick what they want or don't want. Thank you again for your time. I do appreciate it.

Forgot password to log on to phone, is there any way to reset?

Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten passcode:
Restore (and reset passcode) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected (or the device was never connected to a computer) you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)

Is there any way to recover (or even view) my contact list / phone book post factory reset?

Is there any way to recover (or even view) my contact list / phone book post factory reset?

I've not failed to do that. The contact list on my Mac is from my phone, not my wifes phone (which is the troublesome one). I restored it to last backup and it is back but I am not certain the problem will be fixed. Time will tell. My question is how to get her phones contact list back post reset...just the contact list.

When downloading iTunes onto a new computer, is there any way to automatically import old music files? Last time I got a new computer I didn't have to use an external drive to update my music library.

When downloading iTunes onto a new computer, is there any way to automatically important songs from your previous computer? I recently cracked the screen on my computer and cannot access any files. Last time I got a new computer my iTunes media files automatically appeared in my iTunes when I downloaded it, and I did not have to use my external drive. Is this still possible?

If your backup copy of the old computer was not stolen, then use it to put everything back.

Hello there, is there any way i can log onto Game Center via just my Username as i have forgotten the other details (I made the account when i was 11 - I'm now 14 and have a bad memory)

The Question says it all really.
Is there any way i can log onto Game Center via just my Username as i have forgotten the other details (I made the account when i was 11 - I'm now 14 and have a bad memory)?
I remember my Username on Gamcenter but due to the recent update of iOS7, it is only letting me Sign in through my APPLE ID - which i have forgotten over time. I wish to recover my account recently because I remember purchasing Gems on the game 'Clash of Clans' and I wish I could restart playing the game.
Many thanks for taking your time to read and answer this question.

Is there ANY way to send something through Bluetooth to an android phone?

Is there ANY way to send something through Bluetooth to an android phone?

I think I sorted it out:
On your Mac, go to the Bluetooth preferences panel after pairing your (your android phone) to the Mac.
Select (your android phone) in the left-hand menu, then use the little cog to pull down a list of options.
Select "Edit serial ports..."
Click the '+' icon, and in the Port Settings section, select OBEX Object Push.
Protocol should be automatically set to RS-232. Click "apply" (and probably "require pairing" to be nice n secure) et voila!!
so far, so good

I had to restore my iPad recently and in opening Pages again found that even though I synced my iPad and backed it up my files did not come over to the restored iPad. Is there any way of recouperating them? Thanks!

working files aare not backed up as far as I know. You must either 1)"copy to itunes", then use itunes to save as... to your desktop machine. Or 2) use iCloud to keep the docs.
I also learned this the hard way. No way i know of to get the working docs back.

I accidentally hit "back-up" rather than "restore backup" when I got my new iPhone. Is there any way I can get a previous backup? or is everything gone forever?

I cracked my screen recently so I went in to the store to get a new one. Everything was going great until I hit the wrong button and now everything is lost. Is there any way I can get a previous iCloud backup on my phone?

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

If I cannot even hard set my phone, is there any way I can set it to factory settings?

Is there any way I can get my iphone 4S to restart? The hardsetting does not work.

Connect to iTunes. Do a backup. Then hit Restore Phone.
When it asks of you wnat to restore to a previous back up or restore as new, choose the latter option. ALL YOUR DATA AND FILES WILL BE WIPED!!!

I lost all of my tabs when I restarted to install the update, is there any way I can retrieve them?

I restarted my browser to install your most recent update. I had 45 tabs, some of them opened months ago and never closed. When the new browser window opened all of my tabs were gone and it will not let me use "Restore Previous Session". Is there any way to retrieve those tabs? Its going to be virtually impossible for me to reconstruct even half of them and this is highly frustrating. I'm using my chrome right now because I don't want to touch my firefox just in case.

Nevermind, I found the button to restore all previously closed windows and it pulled my main window and a few others up as well.

I lost my i phone is there any way to find it?

hi
l lost my I phone and iam asking is there any way to find please help me
thanks
mahmoud

You can only find it IF you had already signed up for iCloud and activated "Find my iPhone" on there BEFORE it was lost. And even then, the iPhone has to be "on" and it cannot have been reset by someone who found it. Other than that all you can do is physically look for it.
Hope this helps

Hi is there any way of knowing what location my find my phone was turned off or last known location thnks

hi is there any way of knowing where my find my phone was turned off or its last location thnks

No. Apple can do nothing. For the future there are apps that will periodically email you the device's location (if connected to internet)

I messed up when I bought the second season of Game of Thrones recently. I wanted to buy the season pass but it seems I bought the first four episodes instead. Is there any way of upgrading to the season pass, without having to download those I have?

I messed up when I bought the second season of Game of Thrones recently. I wanted to buy the season pass, but it seems I bought the first four episodes instead. Is there any way of upgrading to the Season Pass now, without having to download those first four episodes again? Don't think my download limit will cope! Thanks for your advice.

Not that I am aware.
